Rock on Bartolli

Bartoli blasted her way to Wimbledon victory today.

Marion Bartoli owned the first part of the Wimbledon final.

Sabine Lisicki fought back valiantly and it looked like there might be a last minute turn around.

Dignified in defeat

Sadly it was not to be and now Marion Bartoli stands before us as Wimbledon champion.

Sabine Lisicki could not hide her disappointment but she humbly paid homage to her opponent and wished to come back next year.

Hats off

Well done Bartoli, well deserved.

Now you can go and have another nap...

Murray's on tomorrow, I'll be staying up for him.

Djokovic marches on

Wow, what a match.

Del Potro and and Djokovic had me on the edge of my seat.

I really thought Del Potro might throw Djokovic.

Why is it that Novak has to keep knocking out all the good looking tennis totty?

Summer, tennis and feminism

You can tell it's summer I've emersed myself in Wimbledon, broken out the strawberries and started doing yoga in the living room.

And suddenly I'm obsessing over the accomplishments of the Williams sisters and Billy Jean King.

Somehow the female tennis stars of today don't seem quite as imposing as the Kingster.

Venus, you fancy going up against one of today's male tennis stars...
