But he's doing what we ask and going out with a bang. All due credit to him for that. |

You bet. I'm actually really pleased for him that he was able to do as well as he did for as long as he did. He's done himself proud and he fought. How do you say "let's go" in Swedish?

Oh and yes, it is really awesome that TR is doing some good with his fame. I wouldn't have paid for any kind of VIP package but I'll totally donate for a good cause. |

And there it is. Good try, Juan Martin. låta oss gå, Robin! Doesn't quite roll of the tongue as easily as "Vamos, Rafa!," but it'll have to do. Alright, I gotta go get some work done. Catch you for the women's final tomorrow morning? |

Megan, I'm just now leaving for work--morning errand tomfoolery has thwarted me. So I'll miss the first little bit. But I should be back in action in about 45 minutes or so (depending on the train). |

Sounds good- travel safe. I'll keep a little running commentary for ya. It's overcast in Paris. The more I listen to the NBC team, the less I think I can stomach watching tomorrow, and they haven't even mentioned tomorrow yet. It's going to take a Rafa-like fight for me to do it. And Dinara's still wearing an ill-fitting shirt. |

Early break for Dinara. Sveta looks nervous. Dinara seems locked in. |

That locked in thing? Maybe not so much. Sveta breaks back. |

Sveta may have run out her nerves a bit. She looked much better that game. |

It's too bad Marat's not there to support his sister. It'd be pure entertainment to watch him watching this match. Guess he's getting ready for Wimby in London. NBC has belabored the point that these two women have known each other for a long time. |

It seems both ladies have settled into the match, which is good. |

Here! Just putting the headphones on. I don't even listen to the commentary from NBC anymore. They're so awful. Glad to see we've got a competitive match on our hands. Neither gal has been known for that in Grand Slam finals. |

Safina's first serve has suddenly disappeared. Break point Sveta. |

There's the break for Kuzy, as Mary Carillo keeps calling her. |

If you have the means, I'd recommend turning down the TV and turning on FOR. They're much better and tend to keep the antics to a minimum (although they are annoying about that sometimes). Thumbs up for Kader Nouni! He chaired the final a couple years ago I think. It's a pleasure to hear that voice of his. |
