So what does everyone think is on the cards for next season? My predictions is Novak will win 2 slams (Wimbledon & Australian or US) Rafa 1 (French) and Murray 1 (Australian or US).

Andy Murray and Serena Williams for the Oz open. David Ferrer might get his first slam at the French if Rafa doesn't get back to fitness.

I'll agree with you paull805 on your winner outlooks, I'm just a little concerned about Rafa's shoulder situation which will definitely determine his defeat or win. - Dee

Yep hopefully he gets back soon.

Andy and Novak are looking unplayble.

Well done to the British youngster Laura Robson who has beat 3 former slam winners in her last 2 slams, epic match against Petra Kvitova today.

Generic Tennis...

Aussie Open, at this moment there is an Exhibition Seniors game on, Woodies vs Bahrami/Ferreira. Without the fuel of competitive destruction, this is a most outstanding display of of skill. Four way volleys of 20 shots, all close in as though it were ping pong.

The oldest player is Bahrami, an Iranian who is making this a GlobeTrotters vs the Woodies. The guy is so good at inserting humor into almost every play. The stands are full and the audience is enraptured. I hope you got to see it, or get to see some reruns.

And I'd like to see a Djokovic/Murray rematch though I don't think Djokovic is going to let this one get by him, regardless of the opponent.

What a match that was between Djokovic and Wawrinka! Wawrinka was desperately unlucky, but thats why Novaks a multiple grand slam champion.

Do you think the top 4 should keep an eye on Tsonga, Ferrer, and now maybe even Wawrinka?
