No wonder Serbs didn't want to play in Croatia.<br /><br />Croatia's fans booed and jeered and refused to stand when Serbia's national anthem was played, and some chanted "Kill the Serb" and other abuse at Djokovic.<br />http://wcco.com/wireapsports/Croatia.s.Cilic.2.1795866.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757702474597183495.post-74749962231588328022010-07-08T19:34:22.463-05:002010-07-08T19:34:22.463-05:00I hear you.

But at this point in Roddick's career, having someone return his serve well shouldn't get all up in his kitchen as it did in this match.<br /><br />And yet, it did. So he found himself reliving last year's final, a match he's never gotten over no matter what he and his coach say, serving to stay in the match in overtime.<br /><br />And he cracked like a cheap martini glass.<br /><br />How many Wimbledon matches is Roddick going to lose by dropping his serve? I can think of five off the top of my head.<br /><br />This is a three-time Wimbledon finalist with one of the best, if not the best serves in the game, and weaponry off the ground to back it up.<br /><br />And yet he loses matches on <i>grass</i> by dropping serve.<br /><br />Pfff......Craig Hickmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17336837289054015211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757702474597183495.post-36561844107025109202010-07-07T01:18:58.110-05:002010-07-07T01:18:58.110-05:00Lu came into the match on a roll but I really didn...Lu came into the match on a roll but I really didn't expect him to defeat Roddick.

I just wish people would have more empathy. I think he is doing a marvelous job of playing with this affliction and has had a wonderful career so far despite the seriousness of this disease and may always be limited.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
