nole looked SO HAPPY when he won and it was so endearing!!! :3 :3 and nadal is so lovely :( in terms of everything, but like, especially how modest he is and how quiet in nature he seems. cannot even begin to explain my soft spot for him ugh.

I'M SO NERVOUS FOR THE FINAL i don't think i can even watch

YOU LIKE TENNIS?? NEW INFORMATION compatable July 2 2011, 16:17:10 UTC
omg his reverse jazz hands and his seduction of the grass. i need gifs. LOL I'M THE OPPOSITE. I'M SO PUMPED UP TO WATCH THE FINAL. IT'S GOING TO BE SO TENSE.

ugh i thought nadal's interview was crappy. they kept on asking all these questions about murray, but he had it all under control.

omg IKR. and him getting to the finals is especially great because i feel like commentators (in the us, at least) spent a lot of time hating on him when he was younger for how immature he was and thought he'd peaked earlier BUT HE HASN'T :3 :3 :3 lol i have this thing where i'm convinced that i jinx my fave whenever i watch him/her/them play, so i...don't :(

i didn't see his interview! lol murray played like such a boss during the first set (seriously, his forehands *__*) and then...nothing. why would they even ask about that.

yeah, they made one little comment about his younger self, but it wasn't so bad. but they really hint it a lot. SOBS DON'T FEEL LIKE THAT. YOU'RE A WONDERFUL TENNIS SPIRIT-MUSE OKAY.

idk but i want to give the interviewers a good talking-to. unless it's in the memo to ask douche questions.

.....sharapova didn't win the wimbledon title :{ too many unforced errors, sigh, perhaps she'll need to wait longer to win another slam title.

yeah, it wasn't even a good finals tbh. i was sighing at her errors. sobbing at the frustration she must be dealing with. but i don't dislike kvitova. in fact, i'm pretty happy for her :) SIGH, MIXED FEELINGS.

sorry for butting in, but-- onew July 3 2011, 08:31:29 UTC

Sighs. I was hoping for a really good match but it was so one-sided. Kvitkova did really well, though. Awesome baseline shots.
