Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing

I've never been so erm ... emotionally involved in a game.

I love Bartoli (not sure why) perhaps it's that she's very unconventional and classed as an outsider for so long - an outsider amongst the tennis fraternity.

Her style, training, relationship with her Dad is all engrossing and above all ... she's a fighter against the odds.

She said herself  - she's not blonde enough, not tall enough and not thin enough to be a poster girl for tennis - so i salute her for rising above it all to win.

On the day Bartoli rose to the occasion like a champ and trounced Lisicki.

 

My only regret was that i wasn't in the crowd to cheer her on

My moment has gone - i would have been waiting there with a dozen red roses

 

Yeah, yeah
