Jankovic on her way to an all-Serb semi - leads Carla Suarez Navarro 6-3 3-1*. What that means then is that we will have a new world number 1 at the end of this week.

Almagro is no push over on clay and he was taken to school by the master and Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic will need to game of there career's to challenge for Nadals clay ...

French Open 3rd Round: Nicolas Almagro (ESP)(19) bt. Andy Murray (GBR)(10) 6-3 6-7(3) 6-3 7-5 Hands up for Almagro who played really well today and showed Andy who was the better man on clay. Im not too disheartened by the defeat considering the calibre of opponent in Almagro so off to the Grass an...

Murray was like a constipated werewolf trying to take a shit at the end. That spectator in the stripey jumper gave Murray the sort of look normally reserved for bellowing tramps. It was quite an odd way to celebrate at the end of the match, it was just a 2nd round match and it was won conformably e...
