I have watched the us open series on the tellie. Elena Dementieva looked like she good win the title. That’s my pick. #4 seed.

P!nky, I had a great time at the concert! I was very near the stage and I could see Madonna all the time. It was all better than I had expected, including her looks and her singing. I would go to her concert again for sure.

I have a gut feeling that Jelena might as well take the US Open title…after all she deserves it most.
I heard Madonna was AmazinG in Belgrade…I’m glad you had a great time Marija!
Marija August 26, 2009 At 3:25 pm

Jacob, I think she sang live, at least most of the time.

Bb, Jelena to take the 2009 US Open title? I would be as surprised as with her Cincinnati victory. I would like that to happen, though.
