Yes i agree JK. I grew up as a huge McEnroe fan and i like what he brings to the commentary booth, he can seem to reflect exactly what the players are going through out there. I find Rusedski and Bailey awful. Stich is OK but can be a little downbeat.
Djokovic v Baghdatis promises to shape up well. I think Djokovic a future world number 1, have followed him for a couple of years now since i first saw him rip GB apart in the Davis cup!. So pleased with Ana Ivanovic in ladies - and what a terrific character in the post match interviews.

You could be right here Glen; Djokovic is terrific (and dishy)... Marcus Bagthingummy was wonderful last year (or was it the year before) so that should be a good match.
By the way, I think McEnroe is so brilliant as a commentator that I used to fly to New York so I could watch/hear him on NBC! Thank heavens he's now on the Beeb.
But isn't Greg Rusetski AWFUL?

Well what a marvellous ladies quarter final just, Ivanovic winning 7-5 in 3rd set after saving three match points. Showdown with venus in semi finals now - looking forward to that!

Cant agree there JK! I'm supporting Ivanovic. Federer or Djokovic in mens. At least we got rid of Serena yesterday - goold old Henin! Didn't Serena play on that injury!!!! Michael Stich was spot on there with his comments. Limping when she lost a point but bouncing up and down when she won one!

I've really become a Venus fan - so she's the girl I'm rooting for this year (sorry Glen).
No boy for me this year... since Goran I've not really had a fave player.
