Post any noteworthy pieces of commentary that you wish to share.
Sabine Appelmans, Els Callens and Carl Maes are even worse, though.Steven Martens (old Belgium Davis cup coach) and a co-commentator on sporza, belgium tv.
They were discussing the AO draw, more in particular the 1st round Moya-Blake.
-"Not an easy 1st round for Blake, Steven"
*"Definitely not, Mark, i believe Moya once reached the final of the Australian open in his younger days, did he not?"
- "Yes, he did"
* "He lost to Agassi if remember correct. How long has it been, 5 years or so, 2001 something like that. It was in the same year as he got to number 1"
moments later..
- "I looked it up, Steven. It wasn't in 2001, it was in 1997, 10 years ago"
* "1997!? That long ago? It feels like yesterday, Mark"
What they failed to find, Moya didn't lost to Agassi, he lost to Sampras and he got to number in 99.
Discusting, this Martens guy, is now working for the British lawn tennis association, making big bucks. Trying to help British tennis. I just can't stand that guy. When you here him talk, you get the feeling he knows nothing of tennis, and i'm not only talking about the history of the game.
:devil:A commentator on StarSports talking about Marat's tendancy to get into 5 set matches at the Oz Open.
"That's how Marat likes it. Long and hard". :haha:
I like Courier's commentary and I can't stand JA. Good to seeJim Courier was taking the piss out of John Aleaxander all night during the Hewitt match against Russell and there was definitely some tension there
Classic
the guys on AO radio were talking about a wedgie.Frew MacMillan on Nadal:
Well he still can't find the right size underpants can he?
'This is the match of the week, Marat Safin and Rod Laver are tied 3-3 so far' :haha:
That's awesome.LMAO there are computer screens behind the guy on ES France... on of them is on MTF :haha:
