Tim Henman....

[Nada Bee]

into the 4th Round, he wont win it.... but he's doing well.....

More importantly Kuerton needs to win it!!!!! £2 at 40/1.... come on you brazillian lovely!!!

 

[kojebee]

Now into the quarters............ First time he has got to a quarter final of a grand slam event other than Wimbledon.

 

[Brickie Chap]

Backed Tim at 50's, he'll still mess it up though

 

[Luton Bee]

"Tiger" Tim, does he ever win **** all? So lets not get carried away again chaps. As soon as he plays someone we have all heard of before, he'll lose!

 

[West Ealing Bee]

He might get through tomorrow.

Chiela isn't a bad player but Henman is playing well.

I'd be very surprised if he got past Coria or Moya.

He's done well to get this far though, shows how good a player he is.

 

[nocoat]

well done Timmy :bound:

Can't believe he is only 5's for Wimbledon though

 

[Edmundo]

That's cos all the Henmania victims back him whatever. The bookies have to be careful.

 

[Johnny Bravo]

Semis in the French Open....press will give him a great build up to Wimbledon.........where he will out to some guy whos been playing tennis for 2 weeks on top of some mountain in outer Mongolia in the 1st round 6-2, 6-3 ,6-0.!


JB.....Wimbledon...puh!...give me MA and the boys any day!

 

[shaun]

I love the people on this board who slag Henman off.

Its lucky that when he retires there is such a crop of talent coming through.

The bloke is a world class tennis player - perhaps we would all be happier with some donkey who gets knocked out of every tournament in the first round.

 

[The H]

or we could always not give a sh*t about such an elitest sport .... i don't

Tim who??

 

[Mikey Bee]

or we could always not give a sh*t about such an elitest sport .... i don't

Tim who??

Here Here....What a bunch of old tosh. Crap game made even crappier by the fact all the women players look like men these days....

I couldn't give two pooh poohs whether or not Tim Henman wins the French Open, Wimbledon or the Nobel Peace Prize. He's a prize **** with zero personality.

 

[Bee H]

I love the people on this board who slag Henman off.

So do I, he's one boring ba5tard competing in a boring sh*te 'sport' :zzzzz:

 

[finchbee]

So do I, he's one boring ba5tard competing in a boring sh*te 'sport' :zzzzz:

But he is British, good on him, would be great if he can beat Coria !!

 

[its just my opinion...]

Would be good to see him go further, maybe it would shut people up from slagging him off! then again maybe it wouldnt, everyone is entitled to their own opinions. It will take a hell of a performance to beat coria, good luck Tim!!

 

[West Ealing Bee]

Great performance yesterday, made a good player look decidedly average.

I fancy this will be the end of his run though.

 

[Simon T]

Here Here....What a bunch of old tosh. Crap game made even crappier by the fact all the women players look like men these days....

Mikey, the Russians are coming (and after seeing some of them, most of the guys here would be as well )

Might I bring Miss Maria Sharapova to your attention as a starting point for your research (even though it isn't the most flattering picture of her)

 

[PAZ]

As opposed to horse racing...?

 

[shaun]

So do I, he's one boring ba5tard competing in a boring sh*te 'sport' :zzzzz:

I think that he is an excellent ambassador for both the sport & the country. Unlike our ''Stars'' who gets pissed, get in fights, get embroiled in News of the Screws exclusives etc.

Not sure why you have a problem with tennis as a ''Sport'' & I am sure that the (hundreds?) of thousands who play it down the local park in the summer would probably struggle to understand also.

You should give it a go Bee H - you never know you may like it.

 

[Bee H]

bollox to "Tiger Timmy", let's talk lovely ladies !

Mikey, the Russians are coming (and after seeing some of them, most of the guys here would be as well )

Funnily enough, the only time I could ever get interested watching tennis was when Mary Pierce was on court, she'll do for me, what a body ! :bound: :brow:

 

[Bee H]

You should give it a go Bee H - you never know you may like it.

Played at County level whilst at School but never enjoyed it, it only used to be fun when you could hit the ball straight at some puny kid the other side of the net !

It's all about opinions though eh !

 

[FarnhamBee]

One for Bee H

 

[Bee H]

:bound: :bound: Oh boy oh boy oh boy ! :bound: :bound:

Just found meself a topical screensaver for Wimbledon fortnight ! :brow:

Thank you Farnham, that's a pint of Pride I deffo owe ya ! :yes:

 

[Stonker]

"Tiger" Tim, does he ever win **** all? So lets not get carried away again chaps. As soon as he plays someone we have all heard of before, he'll lose!

He might beat Fred Perry!

 

[jonny c]

Regardless of whether he wins a grand slam, if it was that easy more people would! Other countries dont rip into their top players, he isnt trying to lose and fairplay, being in top 20 of the world for years is some achievement! Gets too much unfair criticism, get behind him!

 

[nocoat]

or we could always not give a sh*t about such an elitest sport .... i don't

ANTHING that provides gambling opportunities is OK by me, and should bee applauded :yes:

 

[Claire]

good luck henman! we all love you really! lol

 

[ineedtherapbee]

i put 1 pound on henman to win at 100/1 at start of tournement...go tiger time

le chat' tim!!

just to think.....

come sunday




thats sundayafternoon


two legends



could be.......

in two classic finals!!!!


henman in the french open and the big one....




rusedski in the surbiton classic!!!

 

[Simon C]

Half the office has gone Henman mad today. I'm dreading Wimbledon now, they're bound to ruin a perfectly good sporting event by swooning over their hapless hero.

 

[beezy babe]

He's already had his serve broken so I thnk Henmanmania could be on the way out!!

 

[beezy babe]

Ooops no he's broken Coria's serve back!! Come on Tim!! lol lol

 

[Simon C]

He's a break up now.

 

[Simon C]

One set up. Lots of Brits in the crowd by the sound of it.

 

[wlb]

just broke corias serve again 2-1 to tim in the 2nd set

COME ON TIM :beer:

 

[Simon C]

He looks very comfortable at the moment.

 

[Phoenixkeeper]

Well he has won the first set!

 

[Simon T]

Well he has won the first set!

He won the first set 6-3 and is 4-2 up in the second

 

[Mad Bee]

I checked the score about 15 minutes ago, saw he was one set up and coulnd't believe it!

I think we get so used to failure in sport that any unexpected success is a real shock.

 

[beezy babe]

We are also use dto messing it up at the last minute though so I am not getting excited just yet!!

COME ON TIMMY!!!!!!! :bound: :bound:

 

[Simon C]

He's lost his break in the second set now. It is Tim Henman after all, he won't do anything the easy way.

 

[Simon C]

And now he's lost the second set.

 

[Phoenixkeeper]

And now he has lost the second set

 

[Simon T]

Coria took the second set 6-4

 

[LostBee]

Now lost his serve in the 3rd.

Choker.

 

[Phoenixkeeper]

He seems to have frozen now, although Coria has raised his game as well

 

[Simon C]

Whichever way this goes there'll be at least one comeback from Henman whether he wins or loses in the end. He's like a soap opera.

 

[Luton Bee]

Laters "Tiger"

 

[Simon C]

He's being outclassed now. Ever since that point where he argued the toss over a serve that was called out he's been pants.

 

[beezy babe]

He is getting stuffed in the 3rd set now

 

[Wee Dave]

laters Timmy

 

[Simon C]

Coria is a pretty classy player, I know a few guys who monitor the tennis scene and didn't give Henman much of a chance against him.
