Not much of a tennis buff myself, but I made an observation when watching Sports Tonight last night.

I really think that Kim Clisters looks like Princess Fiona from Shrek.

Is it just me?

[mike]

I've said it for years.

I also reckon Leyton looks like Kim.

[Hamo84]

Spot on Chappy, there was an email going around at the time of skrek that had a normal pic of Kim a pic of kim with a green face and then a pic of princess fiona and the green kim and Princess Fiona pics look almost identical, pretty funny stuff.....

Can we focus on the more attractive players please?

I'm going to the day session at the Brisbane International today, after getting a ground pass on Monday. There's plenty of talent about.

[LarryLong]

Expect pics and a "Tennis good sorts" thread Andy.

[chappy1970]

Mike I rather think that Lleyton looks like a tool, especially with his new do.

In the immortal words "you can't polish a TURD"

I should have got some pics on Monday, but I didn't take the camera. Olivia Rogowska was very nice.

[TheTrueReview]

... Olivia Rogowska was very nice.

Agree 200%

[AndyP]

I don't think that's her. Rogowska is blond. Most photos of her on the net don't do her justice. She was practicing again today.

I also Ana Ivanovic doing some warmup stuff with a medicine ball. Nice!

As for the tennis, the first women's match on Centre Court was ordinary, but the next two matches were very entertaining.

....

Oops, I think that's Olivia Mun. Epic fail with the google images search. Oh well, Olivia Mun is a nice piece of T & A anyway.

The finger bling is a bit depressing though...

It is very strange to be barracking for Serena Williams, but I just can't stand Henin.

[Jarro]

I'm rooting for Henin tonight .... i'd love her to beat the beast !!

I simply can't stand either of the Williams sisters

Boo on you. I want Henin to win, if only because I don't have money on Serena this year.

[AndyP]

Henin = Mega-Bitch

[henno]

I don't want to marry her, just see her win.

[TheTrueReview]

Shame that Henin lost. Serena Williams always has an excuse when she loses & it's never because her opponent outplayed her.

I put Serena Williams in the "Martina Navratilova school of excuses for losing". I remember one time when Navratilova blamed a loss on a Monkey that had urinated on some peanuts before she ate them!!

[parlyboy]

"Always bet on Black" .....Wes Snipes.

Yeah Henin = Bitch.

[AndyP]

Shame that Henin lost. Serena Williams always has an excuse when she loses & it's never because her opponent outplayed her.

At least Williams finishes the match before pulling out the excuses.

French tennis champion Amélie Mauresmo yesterday won her first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open in Melbourne. Mauresmo was winning 6-1 2-0 when her opponent, Belgian player Justine Henin-Hardenne, retired, citing a stomach complaint.

[Jarro]

At least Williams finishes the match before pulling out the excuses.

True, but Henin doesn't threaten to kill a lineswoman either

They're all soft as butter .... hardly any of them finish a match anymore

[AndyP]

How good is this Federer guy? The first set was even, but it looked like Murray was dictating play, yet Rog takes the set.

[zigwah]

he is giving murray a jolly good rogering
