Default Wimbledon 2007

Over the next couple of weeks the attention draws to tennis because of course Wimbledon is on but who are you supporting and who do you think is going to win this years men's and women's singles titles? Will Henman actually get past the first round this year?

What do you think about the women getting equal pay to the men for the first time?

The weather seems to be okay at the moment with Federer closing in a straight sets victory over the Russian Teimuraz Gabashvili.

I obviously want Henman to do well and progress as far as possible but it will be hard for him, also like to see Federer, Nadal, Roddick and Sharapova win their games simply because they play some amazing tennis. As for the pay situation it's good to see they have changed things, they deserve equal pay IMO.

I dont think Tim Henman will get that far,its a shame Andy Murray had to pull out and i reckon Roger Federer will win again.

Federer has won his match. Roddick is in a tiebreaker to get his match

Play stopped in the Henman match due to the light.2 sets each and Henman had match point on 4/5 occasions but Moya just kept fighting back.

Even if Henman goes out at least he's gave it his all and it's made for an enthralling match.

Henman beats Moya to go through to the second round. What a great game of tennis that was.

Anyone know when Alex Bogdanovic is playing? He's a decent young Brit and might get through.

Henman out then, started off fairly slow and then in the 3rd and 4th sets he came back and played some great tennis but he just seemed to lose it in the 5th set, quite surprising how he seemed to go from playing so well to just throwing it all away.

Ah well only one Brit left in then.

That's good.I'd imagine Murray's brother and his partner should do well, they seem to have been winning a lot of late.

Serena - ouch!

Hope she is able to continue and she plays Venus in the final

To be honest though, Henin has it won this year.

Jankovic, I like her too, has guts.
