Just a random question.

 

If I play tennis with my right hand and my opponent is left-handed, does it give advantage to me or to him or neither?

 

Usually depends on who has the better backhand!!:rolleyes:

Somewhere in Paris I guess :wacky:

 

Did anyone watch Aravane Rezai vs. Michelle Larcher de Brito?

 

Rezai asked the umpire to tell Brito to shut up because she thinks Brito's screaming is disturbing.

 

I actually think that isn't a good reason since Dementieva, Sharapova also scream though.

Well on Eurosport they suggested introducing a "decibel" limit, which - if exceeded - would result in a warming for the player concerned. Not a bad idea, methinks.:rolleyes:

Screaming on court is really annoying, but since most players scream we can't complain.

If this is now the official "Roland Garros" thread, why does it still carry an Australian Open poll??:dozey:

Well a decibel limit would put a stop to the worst ones. Shrek would have big problems for a start!!:lol:

Is there any way I can remove that poll away? :dozey:

There should be.;)

I think there should not be any way. :confused:

 

 

How could I remove the poll?

I have asked Ian I think :thinking:

 

But he said the poll cannot be removed. :\

Yeah, on the french RG program, they talked about that too!! They said that Sharapova 'scream' rise up at 100 db!!! (for info, a concert is 80 db...XD)

 

She reminds me of Monica Selles who was also a champ' at the screaming-all-the-time contest!

 

Too bad that Simon failed but I had little hopes for him. As for Hewitt, I would have loved to see him beat that robot of Nadal...

PHM will play Federer...Another french I have to say goodbye....

 

I'm a little sad this year cause here, we haven't 'Un jour à Roland Garros' skit anymore.... Previous year, we had the photomaton thing or the famous 'karaoké'

I miss those.... v.v

 

Nole is the best XD

I want Nadal out.

And you shouldn't be all negative about the match, I'm a big Fed lover, but I know that anything is possible, just support Paul :)

PHM could technically beat Fed but mentally, he's not strong enough.... :/ He's no fighter like Tsonga or Chardy...
