If they have, I would be incredibly saddened as I look upon them as two of the greatest athletes in the world.
It would be horrible to think that they had actually achieved a lot of their success by cheating.

Tsonga certainly has it in him to beat Federer. He did it a couple of years ago at Wimbledon in five sets but to actually go out and beat him in straight sets is very impressive.
It gives Tsonga a great chance now of reaching only his second Grand Slam final after his appearance in the 2008 Australian Open final. He'll now play David Ferrer in the last four who is looking to reach his first ever Grand Slam final.
However the eventual winner will surely come from the winner of the other semi final, which is undoubtedly going to be between Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal.

After yesterdays 2 stunning Ladies QFs it was a bit disappointing today. Sharapova match was good without being engrossing and Nadal and Djokoviv outclassed their opponents. Looking forward to their semi and the two Ladies semis. Both could be classics and I expect Errani to put on a good show unless Serena turns the power on early.

The Azarenka v Sharapova match will be a harder one to predict although I'm going to go for Azarenka.
I'm going for a Williams-Azarenka final.
For the men, I think it will be a Djokovic-Ferrer final with Djokovic winning in straight sets.
I really hope the Djokovic-Nadal semi on Friday is delayed until at least 5pm as that is when I come home from work. I'll be gutted if I miss that and it really should be the final.

Personally think the evidence is pretty clearcut when legends in the game like Connors appear to be questioning their much superior physical capability. Djokovic never gets tired when previously he was one of the players who struggled with stamina. His improvement has been unbelievable IMO. Would you have predicted even when he won his first major that he would be the dominant force in the game that he is now.
Nadal's physical shape has changed enormously since when he first started playing, His stamina is also limitless when he is fit.Last edited by JimBHibees; 06-06-2013 at 10:11 AM.

As regards doping in sport how bad was the decision by a Spanish judge to destroy the blood samples (I think it was) from sports people across many sports (football, athletics etc) who had dealings with the Doctor who was involved with Armstrong. Too much money and embarrassment connected with many of the people involved I would assume.

Feel sorry for the wee ball boy with the ginger hair in the first semi, the sun is not his friend, looks like he is about to explode!

Nadal flying here, can only see one winner at the moment. Djokovic serving at 3-5 to stay in the set.

Nadal takes the first set 6-4 and is a break up in the second, 3-2 with the serve.

Could be interesting, looks like a wee change of momentum, still got to fancy Nadal tho.

Commentators think Djokovic has picked up an injury, that would be a great shame. Nadal breaks to go 2-0 up at the start of set 3, wrong decision by the umpire according to Hawkeye gives Nadal the break!
