Golden After All!

Rodger Federer may have lost early on in the singles competition, but he was the golden boy of the doubles!




But the BIG story of the Olympics...MICHAEL PHELPS!!! My God that man is something special!!! . What an outstanding athlete! I never knew that I could get so much excitement from watching swimming. But seeing Phelps win 8 Golds has definitely been the highlight of Beijing for me. Yes, even more than seeing Federer get his gold.

The End of an Era?

Rodger Federer keeps losing. He lost the Australian Open. He lost the French Open (not really too big of a surprise there). But he lost Wimbledon. The king of the grass courts lost in England? WHAT?! It has been a long time since Federer lost at Wimbledon, 5 years in fact. But he hasn't won a grand slam all year. What the HELL!! My heart is broken. I'm not sure if he's in a slump or the other players are finally catching up to his greatness and raising their level of play. Only time will tell for sure.

He also lost in the Cincinnati tournament this week. If Rafa wins there, he'll be the new no.1. I'm still holding out for a win at the US Open.
