I'm kind of surprised Roddick got the #3 seed. He has not looked good enough for that high of a seed. But looks good, I cant wait!!

And agassi made #26!! Amazing.

Also I just dont understand the UK. They dont have a single player that made the tournament yet England invented modern tennis in the 1800s, and they invented it right there in Wimbledon, England which is still the biggest tennis event of the year. How can they not have any good tennis players?!!?!

We're shit.

Henman is over the (Henman) Hill. He never had the skill anyway.

Rusedski isn't even British. And he's shit.

Murray is an overconfident little shit and he's not got a proven record on the Slams.

That's why we have no seeds.

I want to see Nadal win against Federer in the final - he's such an awesome player, yet he's still so young. (not like Boris Becker, but certainly a very accomplished plaer for his age). Though Nadal's injury at the Stella Artois tournament wasn't a good sign.

Looking forward to some great tennis from Wimbledon this year.

Let's see how the women's pans out......

Yeah I wonder if Sharapova is going to show up and actually play this time or just continue her quest to be the next Kournikova!

It would be a shame to see her go that way.... she really showed the word waht she was made of in Wimbledon 2004 :good:

Kournikova had a load of injuries and problems - she was never going to be a champ, so i guess she made the most of her position and launched a career as an A-List celebrity. :bah:
She was (still is) some serious tennis eye candy though
