A Victory in Tennis

I’ve completely run out of creative titles to say that Roger Federer won another title so I used a completely inane one.
The world No. 1 demolished Rafael Nadal yesterday in a 6-4, 6-1 clinic and ousted David Ferrer Sunday 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 in another show of dominating tennis. The victory gave Federer his fourth Masters Cup […]

And now we know…

That Roger Federer added another win to his name and Andy Roddick still finds himself a one-hit wonder against the Dude. (Brownie points to anyone who can tell me the movie!)
It wasn’t even close at the Masters Cup in Shanghai. 6-4: Game Federer. 6-2: Game Federer. Raise your hands and smile and tap your racket. […]

Masters Cup Watch

In the movie Anchorman, the reporter who gets a lame-o assignment comes on the air saying, “Panda watch.” Well, this is not near as lame nor does it sound as cool rolling off the tongue but - Masters Cup watch.
I’m a day behind, but Spaniard David Ferrer clinched the sixth spot for the Masters Cup […]

Andy Roddick Secures Masters Cup Slot

It’s the fifth invitation Andy Roddick has received to the Masters Cup; he’s not turning it down.
Roddick’s position in Shanghai was sealed when his competitors failed to advance in Madrid. Roddick is the fifth player with a guaranteed spot at the event, three remain.
