(32,090 posts)but it would be awesome for him personally to get a big win like that in his career. I know he's older in tennis years so not many opportunities like this left. Of course getting past a non-injured Andy Murray is a pretty tall order as well. When he's playing well Andy's as good as anyone.

Good for her. Just hope she's not the next Sloane Stephens.

(29,707 posts)make up is soooooooo different, and so happy Lindsay Davenport is her coach. Madison is only 19 but seems so mature for her age. She IS the real deal.

I am rooting for Serena, though.

(32,090 posts)I think it takes more energy than less to make that kind of noise! At any rate I've never been a huge Serena fan but I kind of like that she's hung in there. I'd like to see her win another major at 33. Pretty cool.

(72,790 posts)But I did grunt occasionally.
I know some fastpitch softball pitchers make noises when they pitch. As I said, some of it is exaggerated and habitual, and some is just a natural reaction.
Either way, it doesn't bother me.
