Today the best players in the last 10 years, have all lost in the Quarter-final’s of the Olympics Tennis Event, even sader it, that those winners show have been easy matches, because they are far less superior but were underestimated. This day is literally my funeral..
Really, this is the worst day of my life so far, now I lost the Olympic spark that I was feeling the last days. The only thing that’s left for me is, Serena and Venus in doubles. A match that could start soon, however, It’s not sure, if both will play. I hope they do, and win doubles, that would relieve my-overdriven-brain.
C’mon sisters, take it, damnit.

Venus Williams also lost her singles QF at the Olympics Tennis Event. Li Na playing a brilliant match, and yes, also helped by the worst tennis-crowd in history, which clearly don’t have respect for any player, by cheering while the points are still being played.
However it wasn’t Na li’s fault, she was playing great, and so was Venus, although, she couldn’t keep up her high level for long, by mixing superb winners with stupid errors.

Today, Is clearly not my best day, and certainly not Serena’s. After starting very fierce and focused to obtain a 3-0 lead, Dementieva was able to get her first game, to come back to 3-1. But it didn’t help much, since serena took the first set 6-3 in 30 min.
The second set, Serena started a bit nervous, but held tough to earn a 4-2 lead. However, after that, she completely went out of control to lose the set with 4-6.
The 3rd set was one big mess, Serena Williams, the far superior player of the 2, wasn’t able to do anything right, to fall behind 5-0. She then regrouped to hold, and break back, saving a few matchpoints along the way. But in the end Double-Fault-Queen-Dementieva, was extremly lucky in the end to serve out the match.
Oh well, sometimes Dementieva needs to be lucky, but seriously, Serena Williams should have won it and sent her home with 2 sets, but no worries, she’ll crash out tomorrow, big time ! 
And also, Chinese lines men/women are extremely blind and shouldn’t be used in any tournament, because their eyes are too small, and they can’t see accurate at all! This was easy to be seen on the television, since many balls landed inches behind the baseline !!!!!!!!!

Roger Federer crashed out against James Blake in the QF of the Olympics Tennis Event. This shows and confirms that Roger Federer lost his groove, and will probably never play as good like the previous years.
It’s a shame, but I’m ready for the new king, Rafael Nadal.
