It’s two days into the new year and the tennis season is about to kick off. There’s Brisbane, Chennai, Qatar, The ASB in Auckland, and The Hopman Cup in Sydney. I’m so excited I could skip. I won’t but you tennis freaks know what I’m saying. Let the speculation and predictions begin.
Can Nadal continue his winning ways? Can Federer face his new challengers and continue his winning ways? Does Andy Roddick still have it in him to try for another major title? Does Maria Sharapova? Can Henin and Del Portro make full comebacks after long injury layoffs? Can Ivanovic find her way back into the top 10? When will Serena make her appearance? Will there be a new women’s number #1? A better question, can the current #1 win a major title? So many questions. So much to ponder. Good thing we have a whole year to wrack our brains.
In the meantime, I’m going to enjoy waking up at ungodly hours to watch live tennis, and cursing the DVR when it cuts off a recorded match, and scouring the internet for a live feed of a match.
Let the games begin!
