Watching Lleyton v Djokovic and Lleyton is playing some great tennis. Took the first set and as I write is desperately trying to force the tie breaker in the second. Given how little tennis he has played this year, it's great to see him doing so well. He always did like playing for Australia.

Was a great match and Hewitt has been in some recent form so I honestly wasn't surprised seeing Lleyton go so well :)

Hear about the Tsonga Vs Raonic match last night? Final set went went to Tsonga 25-23 :O

great quote about Lleyton that i didn't make up

watching Lleyton play is a win win situation no matter the result
if he wins you are happy because he is an aussie
if he loses you are happy because he is a tool

why is tennis even an olympic sport? surely these guys would rather win Wimbledon or US or Aus or French any day over the olympics...

To me, if the gold medal of the sport is NOT the pinnacle of that sport, then it shouldnt be an olympic event... seriously, golf in Rio in 4 years??? you got to be frikking kidding me.. i could think of 6 events off the top of my head guys would rather win that that...

Skyhookz - it gets better, there is a push for beach soccer...

Looks like there could be another massive final set in the Olympic Semi's between Federer and Del Potro.

Currently 16-16 in the final set... http://www.london2012.com/tennis/event/men-singles/match=...

I think u think of the Commonwealth Games for lawn bowls, definitely not an olympic sport :P

I agree with the cycling.. Road cycling should only be open to U23 or something, just like the soccer! This years road race was about the most boring race i have ever watched.. Lets sit back and watch GB do all the work so they cant win! snoooooooooooooooooze!

Track cycling on the other hand should 100% be in the olympics, as a track gold medal would definitely be the pinnacle of the sport.

Putt putt Koops?? Put down the bottle of Grange mate and get some shut eye :P
