If you know me, listen to the FD Podcast, or read between the lines, there is only one thing I wanted from this fortnight: for Justine to lose. I was ok with Fed winning, or Serena winning, or hell, Sod winning. But I cannot abide Justine hosting that trophy. It's not mature, nor does it have any basis in anything. I just REALLY don't want Justine to win Wimbledon. I don't want to hear her philosophically beautiful waxings about how much this tournament meant to her, or how she played with the right emotions, or, well, anything. I just don't want it to happen. Hell, I was willing to let her win RG if that meant she couldn't win Wimbledon. This sentiment runs really deep and I'm not proud of it.
So thanks, Kim.
See you on the hardcourts.
And ditto to you.
It was painful watching Halpert go down to De Bakker. Not surprising or disappointing. I think we all knew he'd have nothing left in the tank. It just...hurt.
But thanks for the memories. Enjoy your newfound fame.
Just...you know...avoid the clap, dude.
