Slow clap moment. Just... brilliant.

She Ain't A Top 10 Tweeter For Nothing.
My reaction upon reading this tweet was something along the lines of a snort and a cackle. A snackle, if you will.
It's Serena. She'll probably win one match at Eastbourne and still win Wimbledon. I can't wait.

Well It's Been Fun, Guys.
But the party's over. Mama's back. And she's looking...yeah: I'm gonna miss these days of leaderless chaos. Sniff. Sniff. (Pic: Serena's Twitter)
To be perfectly honest, I'm just excited to see Kim rocking the Monica Seles inspired kit. Should be interesting.

Kim's All In.
I fold. But while we're at it, here's a quick Roland Garros Roll Call: Serena out. Venus out. Nalby out. Gonzo out. Dinara out. Delpo questionable (left thigh) Roddick questionable (shoulder) Ana injured (wrist) Vika injured (wrist) Ana and Andy withdrew from Strasbourg and Nice today. The...

Great podcast as usual. Loved hearing about your Australian adventures. You think you'll come back next year? And I can confirm that yes-- we do indeed hate Lleyton. Like, really hate him. The only people that like him are the bogans & even they're starting to give up on him now.

FD Podcast: Going Down. Under.
It's been a while, I know, but in case you haven't noticed it's been a little busy around these parts. But Victoria, Lexi, and I set aside a Saturday to talk tennis, Australia, Indian Wells, and Miami. Hope this wets your whistle for the coming weeks. Download FD Podcast #24: Darlinghurst ...
Uhh... that's a cake? Oh Pavs.

Girl, Talk To Dinara About Cakes.
Pavs successfully defends her title in Monterrey by coming back after dropping the first set to beat the surging-yet-still-sputtering JJ, 26 62 63. She celebrated by eating this: And here I thought she knew her way around a cake. I was horribly mistaken. (Pic: AP)

I've been used to that "next page" sadness ever since Sabine (who by the way is now ranked 186) fell out of the top 100. It's a rough boat to be on. :(

Diversity. You're Doin' It Right.
According to the always right and never wrong Kevin Fischer of the WTA, this is the first time in WTA history that the top 10 players are all from 10 different countries. Oh, and your eyes do not deceive you. Serena's out of the Top 10. Oh, and Dinara is now ranked #117. If you'd like to a...
Seriously the best Petko article I have ever read. Well done, C Note. :-)

God love her. Btw, is that Kristina Mladenovic sitting next to Ana?

Box Watching, With C Note.
I shelled out the good stuff for a solid courtside ticket to last night's Serbia/Australia tie and boy, it did not disappoint. My seat was about 45 feet from the Serbia box, which meant I spent little time watching the tennis and most of the time monitoring the happenings in the box. Ana twea...
I think we can all agree the best thing about that Isner-Mahut match was Sveta's tweeting. Just priceless.

FD 2010 Year In Review: Wimbledon
I don't actually love the style of tennis that gets played at Wimbledon, but lordie do I love the tournament. Ahhhh...Wimbledon. The Lady With the Funny Hats made an appearance. And it was kind of a big deal. Everyone was asked about it. Oh, and there was World Cup, too. Alejandro Falla....
I think my favourite part of all that has to be: Starting with Stanford and again Kimiko (ha ha ha). God love her.

Dinara Safina: Essayist.
With 18 days left in the year, Dinara Safina, with one single, yet epic, blog post, surges ahead and grabs, with a vice-like grip, the trophy for Tennis Blogger of the Year. That's right, the rest of us can just close our laptops, get out of our sweatpants (aka, blogger casual) and keep our l...

Exactly what I was thinking. Should've gone with a team of Bepa, MaKiri, Pavs & Masha. Now that would've been a much better team. Maybe the first two turned the FC offer down?

Oh, Ana. You're *Such* a Liar.
I'm just bummed there wasn't a marry, boff, kill chucked in there.

Oh, Ana. You're *Such* a Liar.
I'm still convinced she will not go to Hopman... and will win AO. Cause the tennis God's are that cruel.

Pic This: So Who's Got Odds?
It is November 17th.
Very exciting! You'll absolutely love it here.
I'll be at Hopman Cup, possibly Kooyong & the first week of the AO. I'll drop you a line on Twitter in January in hope of buying you a beer during a Muzz match (cause you know we're gonna need it).
And fyi-- Perth isn't as bad as everyone is making it out to be!

G'Day.
So in case you don't follow me on Twitter, here's the news: I'm going to Australia in January. Hopman Cup, Sydney, Melbourne, Fed Cup. I am excited. I'm trying to do it on the cheap. So if you're in Australia and want someone to hang out for whom you can buy alchohol and food, let me know. ...
Awesome podcast once again, ladies (and Brodie). Btw, Hopman Cup was picked up by Channel Ten, not Seven.

"It's What Liezel Would Have Wanted Her To Do."
And we're back. And we tried to talk about actual tennis. But really, we just wanted to talk about Liezel. And Dinara's hair. Just a reminder, you can download the podcast directly below (right-click save), listen to it on the page (just click the arrow), listen to it from the Forty Deuce Fa...
I feel bad for Vika, but I'm officially on Team Bepa. The girl needs this title more than any other player.

Yo, Vika...
Sergey says "Quiet, please." In what was probably the best match of the tournament so far (and most dramatic, I'd say), Bepa was able to keep clawing back from being a break down to overtake a frustrated Vika, 76 64. I tuned in towards the end of the first set and all know is that Vika lo...
I've heard the ball will be on NYE. So looks like I gotta get me some tickets.

"Wait, you're coming to Perth?" "FUCK YEAH, I'M COMING TO PERTH! (or will at least try)" YOU GUYS!!! Ok, so obviouly the Hopman Cup lineup was already awesome. Nole and Ana, Serena/Isner, um... Fran...Shveddy...other people. But my super happy fun times pairing was finally confirmed today. ...

It's okay Jarka, I'm an Australian citizen and had no clue what half the answers were either.

Yet amazingly they still spelt "Dementieva" right.
