Inspiration...

After Radwanska lost to Makarova, I realized I needed an internet forum to talk about tennis with anyone who may be interested.  A huge fan of Radwanska, I was devastated by her semi-final loss to Sabine Lisicki at Wimbledon.  To me, she is a great player to watch play, utilizes all of her abilities to win, and isn't powerful like others on tour, so she makes up for it with her finesse. I wish her the best moving forward and hope she is able to win a slam!
Li Na is also a new favorite of mine, after learning about her struggles to be able to play to the best of her ability.

On the men's side, I was shocked by Del Potro's early loss to Lleyton Hewitt.  It felt wrong somehow as I watched the match unfold, and Del Potro didn't seem like his usual self. Thoughts?
