    Oh rehab, you do make me laugh! I agree with you on nearly every point : I too hate the blazer brigade, can well understand why they have to have a pow-wow on roof closing (I can hear the harrumphing) but I watch the majority of the ladies with the sound turned down. I cannot bear the squeaks, squeals, shrieks etc, and as for the screaming of mesdames Williams: ghastly. Apart from when they let rip with almighty snorts and dump the ball in the net. Now that is funny. DD

    You can take the girls outta Compton but you can't take Compton outta the girls. Bloody good game with KDK tho. I reckon VW will win, which willl be a shame. DD

    I think that was one of the best girly matches I have ever seen and VW showed why she is the champion she is. It says much about the state of wonen's tennis that the Amazonian sisters can take so much time out/off and yet blast their way back in at the highest level - or does that only reflect their health, strength and athleticism? I cannot remember if they are in separate parts of the draw - if they are then it will be another W v W final. I miss Justine Henin. DD

    I loved the jacket covered in tennis balls! The Williams sisters spend ages on their clothes and matching accessories but they would never come up with something like this,

    They are both out, Wozniaki (or however you spell it) too. How can she be rated World No1 when she ain't won anything notable, such as a slam? There is a dearth of real talent in the ladies at the moment - and yes, I meant tennnis talent. Mind you, they can all howl like banshees - perhaps that is the only skill one needs. DD
