2009 WIMBLEDON TENNIS PREVIEW:
The 2008 Wimbledon men's finals has been described by some tennis experts as one of the greatest major finals in tennis history. Long-time rivals Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal battled for five grueling sets late into the London night. When Nadal finally claimed the final set (9-7) the famous Centre Court at Wimbledon was cloaked in darkness. The lack of light did not stop the fans from applauding these two great championsp; or Nadal from celebrating his epic victory with family and friends.
How can Wimbledon 2009 surpass the excitement of last year's tournament? You will just have to be there live at Wimbledon to experience it for yourself. The main contenders in the men's category are Roger Federrer, Andy Roddick, Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and many more. The main contenders in the Women's category are Venus Williams, Serena Williams, Jelena Jankovic, Ana Ivanovic, Dinara Safina and others. With last year's champ Rafael Nadal out due to injury, who will challenge Federer? Will the Williams sisters return to the ladies final, with Serena getting the best of Venus this time?
Among the women, the William sisters, Jelena Jankovic and Elena Dementieva are the front runners to win this prestigious Grand Slam. Among the men, the odds are being placed on Roger Federer, who is highly motivated after his most recent French Open victory. Impossible to know the outcome at this point, but what is known is that Wimbledon is one of the most exciting sporting events on the calendar each year.
