Great, Joe, just great, really. As you perhaps noticed we had a discussion
about postings of that style some months ago. But just for *you* I can
repeat what the consens was in the end:
We are a newsgroup for discussion and information about tennis-events and
players, but not for slandering single persons.
So please accept that and behave like that.

The result per si is a major suprise.

Considering that Steffi Graf had a 5-1 lead in the first set and a 4-2 lead 
in the second makes this match almost unbelievable.

Should this mean Monica Seles will have yet another easy way to the title?

I posted an article on this topic a couple of days ago but it seems
to have been lost. Anyway, in men's tennis, the field is very wide
(unlike the women's side). It is simply normal for players such as
Courier, Sampras, Edberg, Ivanisevic, Becker ... to beat one another.
Consistency has always been Edberg's problem; just look at his Grand
Slam results in 1990, and this year he was twice beaten by players
ranked in the 200's, for example.

Edberg's game suites fast surfaces, which are dominated by big servers
in these days. However, Edberg's serve really isn't among the best;
he need to volley to win his points. Actually, that makes him a lot
more interesting to watch. Unfortunately, he frequently comes second
best playing against big servers on fast surfaces. Just count the
number of times Ivanisevic beat him on grass and on carpet this year.
That pretty much explains why Edberg is not doing as well as his did
before.

Hi,

I'm traveling to Melbourne in January to see the Australian Open and was  
wondering if anyone could advise me on the best way to obtain tickets.  I  
plan to attend during the first week of play, so I am looking for tickets  
to the outside courts as well as the center court.

I'm also looking for an inexpensive place to stay in Melbourne that is  
both local to the tournament site as well as to the city itself (if that's  
possible; I don't know how things are situated).

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Lori McNeil d. Steffi Graf (2), 7-6 (7-1), 6-4	 <<<<<<<<<< !!!
Jana Novotna d. Mary Joe Fernandez (6), 7-6 (7-3), 6-2

Conchita Martinez (8) vs. Katerina Maleeva (yet to play)

McNeil came back from 5-1 deficit by breaking Graf repeatedly and
played some great net game to take the set in the tie-breaker. She
started badly also in the second set and fell behind 2-4, but managed
to win 4 straight games to get her very first win against Graf. The
winning point was a net-chord ball, which Graf could not reach...

Some interesting stats:

 o McNeil had lost all 8 times she had played Graf, the last 4 in straight
   sets. 

 o Graf's current winning streak of 19 matches ends.

 o It was Graf's first loss on the Kraft Tour before the quarterfinals 
   in 101 matches, dating back to October 24, 1985.  

 o It was also the first loss to a player ranked as low as McNeil 
   currently is (number 18) since February, 1985.

News & Comments
---------------

* Coming up this evening is the Becker-Edberg match!!!!!!!

* The Ivanisevic-Courier match was a little bit boring; Goran IMHO
playing more or less BOOMBOOM-tennis (though he didn't serve so many
aces); hitting the ball as hard as he could most of the time. 
In the second set Goran recovered from 0:40 and 0:30 winning 5\4
points in a row. Courier didn't play very well, perhaps he should have
attacked more often, as he did sometimes in the second set.
Both sets were decided by an early break.

* Edberg and Courier both criticized the ATP ranking method; Edberg
suggested to take *all* tournament results in account, not only 14.
Both proposed to weight Grand Slam tournaments more heavily in the
rankings.

 Hi Connie, everyone,
  IMHO I think the ciruit is very glamorous for the top players. Check out
the Sept. 1992 issue of Tennis magazine page 12. The picture says Andre
Agassi and Steffi Graf were lookin' good as the guests of honor at the
annual Wimbledon Champions Dinner. For those of you who won't be able to
see the picture Steffi is looking BETTER than good! in her low cut evening
gown and Andre has a black tux on. Some other thoughts that come to mind
are Gabriella Sabatini as a fashion and perfume model and endless other
situations. The down side of the sport must be the endless hours of practice,
being away from home and the stress of people hounding you for interviews,
photographs, and autographs during dinners. etc. Not sure if this is 
helpful cause it seems so obvious but maybe one of the netters has played
on the pro tour and could shed some light.
  Good luck with your paper.
Eddie

Well, I guess some of the people who go to tennis tournaments are
not necessarily tennis fans; it is a place for social gathering.
A lot of firms just give tickets away to their clients.

When I was at the Madison Square Garden the other day, several ladies
were discussing the match in progress. "I hope the one in blue wins;
I like girls with pony tails." They had no idea who is who among Helana
Sukova, Andrea Strnardova or even Arantxa Sanchez and Steffi Graf.
Later on, one of them asked, "Why are those people in uniforms standing
behind the baseline? They must be hurting their back bending down for
that long." I thought about turning around to say, "Those are line judges."

Thanks for taking the trouble to post these interesting series.
Enjoyed reading them and tried to see the games via mental tv. The
best there is. No stripes, jitter or anything else ;-)

I am hoping Pete wins it all. But Goran seems to be hot too. May be
it is PS/GI final?

Is it just me, or has Monica's grunting been toned down?  I saw her in the
final of the Virginia Slims on Sunday (the 22nd) and she didn't sound as
loud as usual.  Maybe it was because she was indoors.....what do you all
think?  Is it that disturbing and disruptive to her opponents, is it a
ploy on her part to distract her opponents, or is it just a lot of hype
over nothing?  
I always turn the sound down whenever I watch her on t.v.

I find this criticism of Arantxa rather pathetic. She is one of the
few female tennis players today who plays the game with some humor (no
I am not an old fuddy-duddy). She may not be in the league of Graf, Seles or
Navratilova but nevertheless #5 is very respectable. Sabatini hasn't
exactly won an avalanche of Grand Slam tournaments either.

Having met Arantxa briefly, I can honestly say she was the friendliest
of all the female tennis players I've met (which is all of them except
for Navratilova).

Contrary to your assertion above I think she often loses because of
her own unforced errors. As someone else has commented part of the
strategy of tennis (or just about any other sport for that matter) is
to force your opponent to make errors. So what is wrong with her winning
that way? How do you think Graf wins so easily against inferior competition.
It's not always by hitting winners but by her opponents returning everything
into the net.

As for her being chunky I don't really see that as relevant. So what
if she is? I'm not convinced it has any effect on her tennis game.

* Regarding my posting policy: I will continue to post results from
  european tournaments that I haven't seen posted by anybody else -
  sometimes I get results from tournaments at other continents as
  well, but I think the people there should post first (good job done
  by Gess and Chris, though Gess' postings arrive here usually two or
  three days delayed).
  Normally I will give all pieces of information that I know, but
  usually these are only the bare results (no lineups or comments)
  because I mostly haven't got the time to see long matches :-( (if
  german TV covers them).

Hi Netters,

	With all the exciting events like the ATP championships etc,
I am really mad about the delay.  I decided to ask one of you if it would be
possible to send me a mail of the results. Since emails reach me immediately
I would appreciate if someone can just mail me the results while they are
posting it.  My login name is "ssubrama@dante.nmsu.edu". Thanks in advance.

How about that.....we haven't gotten a single televised match of
the ATP championships here in Vancouver (at least not that I've
seen in the TV listings)!  And you guys think you have it bad. =(
