Who needs the Williams sisters?!

My all time favourite tennis player, Roger Federer, and his lovely wife Mirka have welcomed the birth of their twin girls, Charlene Riva and Myla Rose. He posted a picture on his Facebook page and they all look so wonderful!


I can't imagine what a shock it must be from having no-kids, to having two!! Major change of lifestyle! Though I'm sure Roger and Mirka will cope splendidly, and I'm also sure that Roger's family (and indeed Mirka's too) must be overjoyed too!

The media have been wildly speculating,"Will the girls turn out to be the next Williams sisters?" Sheesh. Making ridiculous statements about the possible future greatness of a celebrity's offspring has never been done before... How original! Wouldn't it be nice if just once, the press could simply say 'congratultions on the birth of your beautiful children' and leave it at that?

Well, that's exactly what I'm going to do.

Congratultions Roger and Mirka!! Your daughters are gorgeous, and they're very lucky to have two parents as wonderful as you! May they have every good thing in life, and their futures be filled with happiness!

This has certainly been an amazing year for the Fed-Express - he's definitely on the up and up! Long may it continue...

Game, set and match!

Roger Federer won Wimbledon!!!!


After much nail-biting on my part, the 'Fed-Express' finally beat Andy Roddick in an epic, 77-game, 5-set battle. Lasting for over 4 hours, it has to be one of the tensest matches I've ever seen. Despite his eventual defeat, Roddick played fantastically well in what I think was probably the best match of his career. Federer however, displayed his usual genius, taking the match 5-7, 7-6 (8-6), 7-6 (7-5), 3-6, 16-14 in 4 hours 16 minutes, claiming his sixth Wimbledon title. The triumph marks Federer's 15th Grand Slam win, exceeding the previous record of 14-titles held by Pete Sampras, who was present on Centre Court to witness Federer's historic victory. The win also allowed Federer to reclaim his position as the number one ranked player in the world.

So Congratulations Federer!! The King of Wimbledon!! You really deserved it!

PS. And this definitely makes you Gee Whizzable!!!!!
