GRASS GRASS GRASS

So today was the first day I managed to watch some grass court action. And boy did I love it. The grass looks so lush. So very green, which if you know me at all you'll know that means a lot and involves only good things. Put briefly, I love green. And moreover I love to watch A-Rod moving on the green green grass of home. He played like a charm today, beating Russian Kunitsyn 6-2 6-1. He is looking mighty good and has a relatively straightforward ride to reach the final. Roddy to win Queen's for the fifth time? Yes please!

Ray-ray also came through a far more competitive match against Spain's serve and vollier Navarro. Very entertaining match and probably good for Murray - a tight first game on grass and a win in straight sets can only boost the confidence. By the end Ray-ray was serving and returning Navarro's serve brilliantly. Can I smell a Ray-ray/Roddy final? I hope so. Wimbledon semi-final 2009 rematch here we come!
