Pftt, Doubles
The Bryan's are Number 1 in doubles and have won dozens of slams yet on their own they would struggle to beat a player ranked in the 100's.
Gone are the days that good doubles players were also good singles players. Nowadays doubles is for people who are not good enough to make it at singles

Am I the only one who refuses to watch a second of the shows that C7 spend 95% of their coverage cross promoting? Apart from the shows being terrible, but the same ad 100 times a day just wears you down

Djokovic beats Wawrinka 12-10 in the 5th after 5 hours and 2 mins. Serena beats glamour chick 6-2 6-0 in 57 mins.

Both get the same pay cheque.

How was Almagro against Ferrer yesterday?

I've never seen someone congratulate their opponent before the end of the match and on the last point, start walking to the net instead of returning the shot ... WTF?
