Alas poor Justine


Alas poor Justine
The comeback's hit a hard-hitting tennis machine
In the form of Serena, who was dressed for Halloween



In a performance we cannot berate
As you have played so little of late

With bated breath we shall wait and see
For the next serve down the Tee

Greatest Shot in Tennis?

I'm currently watching the replay of the Federer vs Djorkovic semi-final and have seen an extraordinary shot made by Roger in the 3rd set.

After Novak slams an overhead down, Roger, then hits an overhead lob; (yes.... an overhead lob!!! i.e. a lob using a service motion) over a perfectly positioned Novak at the net.

Absolutely incredible.

The Invincible Man - Olympics Ad.


Oh Rodger, the ads say that you're invincible
Today, the results proved unsustainable
Young Rafael has now broken through
And turned the ads into turkey stew

I guess that you'll be feeling blue
That this year's results were just poo
I hope you won't bid adieu
In the resulting hullabaloo

Oh I Say!


Oh Justine, Justine
We shall miss that backhand supreme
For you were my queen
That backhand of my dreams

Hit with bottom or with top
Why do you have to stop
We shall miss you little 'un
Do enjoy your days in the sun
