This work has reached the exceptional level

I think she has now been blitzed twice! Once by Stosur and now by the Jester. You would think she would learn not to mess with Aussies, but then she is known for making the same mistakes again.

Oh, and what a GREAT match it was. Serena's big enough to eat Sam for lunch. I was a bit worried she may not have had the power to keep up with our hefty Queen of the courts BUT she did it and I was thrilled for her and Australia. I loved the limerick Clo.

This is a good one. I like the word play in that last line.
Pretty clever. I am not a tennis fan and did not watch it but I have seen enough of the clips on various TV shows to keep up and know what the poem is about. Nicely done.

Evein though you're slamming the US (tongue in cheek) I liked your little limeric. I'm used to a 9 and 6, syllable line format so this threw me a little but it works. You didn't post the limerick format, so not sure it's not okay. Anyway, it was fun. :) Marcia

    Haha, I won't tell you what I was gonna say in line 3...I was being mindful of many factors but we Aussies are a proud bunch and have to stick it up the Yanks when we can! The girls havent won since bloody 73. Thanks Marci.
    Cheers Phillippa xoxo

A fun limerick and I really like the last line with the double meaning for Open. Nothing wrong with feeling a little pride towards one's countrymen/women. Congrats. Linda

Goody for ol' Stoser....she put the Yanks in their place. No more arrogance now haha. This is nicely thought out and presented. I notice you have a touch of 'humility' in your notes lol :-0~

    What? Arrogant? Get the fuck out. Really?
    Gosh, and I don't even follow the tennis! LOL
    I thought Serena was extremely rude and when she squawked before Stosur hit the ball and lost the point and then game...the wheels came off the wagon. She not only abused the umpire twice possibly thrice, but she was too fucking catty to shake her hand.
    And I'M arrogant. Hmmmm. I see.
    Cheers and thanks for your interesting review. Ha-de-fucking-har!

    Oh shit.
    Sorry about all that then.
    Someone else seemed to think I was a little unfair. I thought you were on the same band wagon.
    I apologise.
