Well the weekend threw us a few surprises, sports wise anyway.
Serena Williams was soundly beaten by the number thirteen seed Maria Sharapova in the ladies final at Wimbledon. As Ms Sharapova is the most photogenic female tennis player since a certain Anna I can hear the tabloid lens men polishing their telephotos as I type this. The key difference between them as I see it is that Sharapova is a world class tennis player whilst Kournikova isn’t.
I never thought I’d ever say it but well done to the Greeks for winning Euro 2004 and showing us that you don’t have to have a team of over paid prima donnas to win a major tournament. Sadly as Alan Hanson mentioned England have never had a better chance to win the European Cup and probably won’t again for sometime, yes I know a dopey Swiss ref robbed of a place in the semi final but lets be honest we didn’t really deserve it. Now all the Greeks have to do is finish off the Olympic buildings which I have on good authority is pretty unlikely.
Oh and Spain was excellent.
