the us open is where he got his big start. only right that he says goodbye to his home crowd.

it's only been since his comeback that he's really embraced wimbledon.

[Edited on June 27, 2006 at 2:57 PM. Reason : (and there's no way in hell he wins wimbledon, he was shaken in the first rd.)]

EDIT:

looking at it, didn't realize that agassi won wimbledon in 1992. i do know that he was pretty anti-wimbledon in the first stage of his career.

yeah good point - i was thinking if he won at wimbledon, then had a disappointing loss in like the 2nd round of the US Open, that would kinda suck - ya know, like he couldn't go out with a bang

Roddick, and the Federer match. Now that I see they are playing at different times.

He was supposed to play today but Nadal match went too long

i think the henman federer match is the match of the day. henman will have to be a LOT better than he was yesterday though.

i can't help but pull for tim every year at wimbledon. i really just feel bad for england.

yea i'm like that too, although andy murray is "supposed" to be england's next greatest thing, so maybe he can give them a little more to cheer for.

that bull dyke thinks Nadal is a passing fad and sge actually, despite her bull-dike-ed-ness, would consider slopping federer's knob.

She knows her tennis, but I am fed up with the man known as Mary Carillo.

Quote :
" LONDON, June 28 (Reuters) - An Internet bookmaking firm has contacted tennis authorities about unusual betting patterns after hefty sums were bet on a first round match at Wimbledon won by Britain's Richard Bloomfield.

The alert was raised by the online betting exchange Betfair after up to 340,000 pounds ($619,300) were traded on world number 89, Argentina's Carlos Berlocq, to lose just hours before he went down 6-1 6-2 6-2 to Bloomfield, ranked 259, in Tuesday's match.

That was around 30 times as much as had been invested on similar matches between relatively unknown British players at the tournament.

But it was dwarfed by the six million pounds wagered on the first round match of Britain's Tim Henman, four times a semi-finalist at Wimbledon.

"We contacted the International Tennis Federation (ITF) Grand Slam Committee and the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) to make them aware of betting patterns before the Bloomfield match," said Betfair spokesman Tony Calvin.

He said Betfair had information-sharing agreements with both bodies who are co-regulators of the Wimbledon tournament "should they feel the need to investigate."

Calvin said Betfair was "able and willing to provide named information on these bettors should the need arise."

"Although the amounts involved were not unusual, the betting patterns were. Bloomfield was backed from an opening 1-2 on Betfair -- though other bookmakers were even shorter at 1-4 on Tuesday -- to a low of 1-10 pre-match and this led us to contact the International Tennis Federation," he said in a statement.
TF executive director Bill Babcock confirmed to Reuters that the body had an agreement with Betfair to provide confidential information on betting patterns.

"In that agreement it is all confidential," he said. "We won't be commenting on any likely or possible investigations."

Bloomfield, who had never won a match on the main ATP tour before his Wimbledon victory, was asked at his post-match news conference if he had been tempted to put a bet on himself.

"Definitely not, No. I am not that kind of person," he told reporters.

"I've actually hardly had a bet in my life. I don't know how to play poker. So yeah, like I say, I'm not into that kind of stuff."
