New Year's Tennis Wish 2009

Bring back Wimbledon! Get rid of the Green Clay!

Marat please win something.

Calendar slam for Fedex and for Tipsy to break the top 20.

gwaaan, gizzit.

Mario, keep well and fit, please.

just cause stop making threads

For Federer to win 40 matches.

I wish for Taylor Dent and PimPim to return to the tour full-time and to remain injury free (and climb to the top of the game of course). Throw in the Scud as well, but that may be a stretch.

For NaDULL to fall flat on his face.

For an underdog to win a grandslam;serve and volleying :p

For an underdog to win a grandslam;serve and volleying :p

That's a good one actually. Mine is for my fav players to stay healthy and don't get injured. Everything else should consequently follow.

for nadal: stop touching ur ass
for rg: please a new male winner
for roger's gf: is time to the baby go out (she was "pregnant" 3 times XD and never had the baby)
for gaudio: a haren than want to gam XD

all the best for chris

The Great One wins the french

For Rog to break the 14 GS barrier and win Roland Garros, Wimbledon, US Open oh and of course AO. And how can I forget, get the #1 ranking back and the masters cup back to where it belongs. Oh and another Basel title. Preferably Hamburg, Madrid and Paris Masters along the way to beat Agassi's record. And as usual to win Halle. Ummm and ....win Dubai...and never lose to Nadal, Murray or Djokovic :). Only allowed 5 losses for the whole year.

That's my wish.

Just kidding. My wish is for Rog to stay healthy, non-injured and be his elegant, GOAT self.

The Great One wins the french

i agree it will be great when nalbandian wins the french

Davydenko to have a good year.

Spadea to win an atp title
Roddick to beat Karlovic in overall amount of aces.
Murray to break top 3.
T. Johansson to come back.
T. Dent to get back to top 50.
Safin to win a major.

all the best for chris

Which Chris?

Fed to win the French and Wimbly.
Nadal to win the Aus and USO.
Me to break into the top 300.

Roger to win Roland Garros and Gasquet to win Wimbledon, beating each other in thrilling five set finals. :D

I might as well wish for New Year's miracle:

-Tsonga to win French Open
-Murray to win Wimbledon
-Nadal to win Australian Open and US Open, thus completing the grand slam

Luczak to break back into the top 100
Guccione to remain inside the top 100
More epic duels between Federer and Nadal
Djokovic to retire from tennis
Dent and Pim Pim to make successful comebacks
Tomic to not be awarded a wildcard into the Australian Open

First of all, I wish to see no nasty injuries and/or illnesses to any of the players.

Fed to at least equal Sampras' record;
Nadal to finally win a HC GS.

:)

Roddick to win a slam or at least a Masters title and to keep his place in top-10.

Nice thread :)

No injuries for anyone
Roger to at least equal Pete's record
Richie to return to top 10, winning a Slam (well, you can always hope, right? :o)
Mannarino and Kamke to the top 100

I would like Federer to win Wimbledon if Gasquet doesn't.
I'd like Gasquet to just enjoy his tennis and be happy on and off the court and have a really good year and return to the top ten. Some grand slams woud be great too.
I'd like Mario Ancic to return to his top form and be healthy again.
I'd like to see Murray win a slam too.
I'm easily pleased!

I would also like Federer to beat Murray loads so their H2H is nicer for me.

All this on top of a happy, healthy year for all of them of course.

Which Chris?

the one and only

- No injuries for any player,

- Great matches between the top 4 (if possible Nole to win all of his ones :o).

- Being realistic, Nole to win AO and USO, and have a good run in Wimby. Oh, and Nole to achieve #2 finally. :bounce:

- No "I don't have any motivation to play" from Nole. :awww:

- Dancevic to win Montreal. :bounce:

Healthy year for all players, many greatest-match-of-all-times nominations, Roger to equal and pass Sampras's GS record and since I'm going to IW, a great tournament with all my favs making it to the round of sixteen, and and and...

Most important - no injuries or ill health for the players.

Then I would say:-

- A great year for Nole - winning at least two Grand Slams, hopefully Wimbledon being one of them, so I can go and see it live.
- A first ATP singles title for Janko :inlove:
- Roger to win Roland Garros - it means so much to him.
- Lots of success for Mario Ancic, Marin Cilic and Dmitry Tursunov, and a better year for Mikhail Youzhny. A good year for Davydenko too.

Most important - no injuries or ill health for the players.

- A first ATP singles title for Janko :inlove:
- Roger to win Roland Garros - it means so much to him.


:hug:

Marcos back in Top 20 at least.
Nadal to win a HC GS
Injury free year for everyone

Drop the WTF, 2000/1000/500/250/etc...nonsense :(

may everyone be happy and healthy, and may Roger win RG beating Nadal in an epic 5 setter match in the final, something like 6-4 6-4 6-7 6-7 9-7 or something ;), and may he finally break Sampras's record and establish himself as the undisputed GOAT, so he can relax and enjoy the tour and show us more magic :o

there is one more wish but I will keep it to myself :rolleyes:

Murray and Korolev to win a grand slam - although not happening

fallita wining a MM tournament... and rafa at least defending roland garros.

For Marat to win one last major before he retires... and for some of the new guys (Gasquet, Ancic, Andreev) to challenge Federer and Nadal for the others.

For the Roland Garros clay to be slowed down, and the Wimbledon grass to be sped up; overall, for court speeds to be adjusted so that we have real, appreciable differences between the grand slams and not have players making the finals of RG and Wimbledon successively with only minor adjustments to their style of play.

Health health health for aaallllll:)

My wish next year is that I get to see Sharapova and Ivanovic and get a photo taken with them with me in the middle at Wimbledon.

It would be fun to see Gasquet play with the mindset and attitude he had in Monte Carlo 05 or Wimby 07 every now and then.

For the Roland Garros clay to be slowed down, and the Wimbledon grass to be sped up; overall, for court speeds to be adjusted so that we have real, appreciable differences between the grand slams

We can always dream. ;)

The same as every year. :yawn:

Of course this will never happen:
Baghdatis-top5 by end of 2009
Economidis-top100
Mazarakis-top100
Jakupovic-top300
Kryvonos-top300
Rovas-top400
Kleftakos-top400
Thomas-top400
Kallias-top400
Xristos-top500
Gemouchidis-top500
Karaliolios-top700
Mikos-top700
Venizelos(Aggelos:lol: )-top800
Kapogiannis-top800
Angelinos-top800
Mavropoulos-Stoliarenko-top800
Loucareas, Alexiou, Serkedakis, Spyrou, Balafoutas, Glezos-top1000
Kostidis:lol:, Katsigiannakis, Giannakakis, Tsangaridis, G.Tarassis-ranked

The Great One wins the french

i agree it will be great when nalbandian wins the french

In that case, it would be, "The Fat one gobbles the french" :devil:

...that Gaudio will, like, win a challenger. and maybe get back in the top 200 300

...that Baghdatis will... do something.

i wish than junqueira win more than 3 games in doha

Lleyton back in top 30 :)

Happy 2009 tennis year to U all ;)

For the Gooch to have a good run in the one tournament in Aus that he hasn't performed well in. The Australian Open :)

Lleyton back in top 30 :)

top 30?! Top 10 PLEASE!
Besdies that:
Fed: win RG and Wimbledon
Djkovic: drop out of the top 10
Murray: grow up
Gasquet: come out

for roddick or hewitt to get back to one more slam final, win or lose. would be perfect if lleyon at aussie and roddick at open, but that isn't happening.

Tennis crowds and admin dont cheat to give Fed another tainted slam like US OPEN 08.

WTF is admiN?

WTF is admiN?

The tennis administration that cheated Murray in the US Open. By playing Federer first and Murray last so that the rain would force Murray to play two days in a row.

More conspiracies? You should stop drinking the kool-aid. Federer won fair and square.

Murray and Korolev to win a grand slam - although not happening

:lol: Evgeny has to get to an ATP final first. :rolls:

A decent points system, a more spread out calendar with a decent grass season and a roomy clay season, no injuries.... ok, being realistic now, just lots of great matches in the vein of the 08 Wimbledon final, and to see Rafa at least make the final of a HC slam, if not win it.

Tipsy to win a title.

A surprise "can't believe it" humbling grand slam winner

A season with limited injuries

Federer to reclaim his #1 crown and to smash the grand-slam record.

regular cripples Baghdatis, Tsonga and Ancic to stay fit.

Everyone stays injury free.
Progress for all my favs.
No one of my favs retires.

Rafa to win the French Open and Wimbledon again. :D

The Grand Slam for Roger. For Niko, to stand in wellness, to forget the "rumors", and to confirm at his levels. Go Niko, go my life!!!

This year, I want
Lleyton to win the AO...and then promptly retire;
Roger to win RG...to get the monkey off his back;
Someone other than Fed and Rafa in the Wimby finals; and
Roddick to win the USO...again.

First and last...least likely to happen ;)

And for myself, Santa, please leave the following in my stocking...

a kick serve,
a return of kick serve, and
the nerve to play "up".

Roger to break Sampras´s record playing great
Safin to win something and playing great
A title for Tipsarevic, Andreev, Schwank, Gulbis, and another guys
Number 1 to Roger and number 2 to Murray
A new guy to win RG (Federer would be nice)
Gulbis in the top 20
...
...
...

...that Gaudio will, like, win a challenger. and maybe get back in the top 200 300

:yeah:

^^^ :yeah: Hope never dies!

Everyone stays injury free.
Progress for all my favs.
No one of my favs retires.

It's funny how we're not even half through this year and and all of my wishes crashed. :awww:

Carlos injured and maybe will retire, Marat is certainly retiring, Coria finalized his retirement, some of my favs progressed but many of them are stagnating or worse... this whole wish thing blows :ras:
