Doing a proper linkie on an iPhone was hard enough without trying to google how to spell his name as well.

Oh, I feel sorry for the other one. He's been completely overlooked - will this mean he will get a sneaky win in Shock

sieze- I think a lot of people are going to think Janowicz has no chance. I've a feeling hope they may be disappointedGrin- certainly if he plays the way he did Wednesday. And there was hardly any support, for either player, and all they could hear was constant mutterings and roars from Centre Court. I think he'll thrive on being the underdog- and has a huge serve.

I am always wary of the underdog in any walk of life because I reckon the underdog is the person with absolutely nothing to loose and absolutely everything to gain. And does not care one hoot what others think of him/her because he/she is already, at the start - the underdog.
I never count a person out, I really do not in any walk of life. I think the underdog is more often than not, the more dangerous person. Argh! I can't wait - wish it had all started already...

And thank you badkitten for the weather report earlier this week - as I said back then - quilts are washed and on the line as I type. I did them all last night in anticipation of today's fine weather. Thanks Grin

I think he's got a very good chance. I just don't want him to win.

I think it will go to 5 sets but andy will win.

I don't want to say it but I think we might have a Serb-Polish final. I really want Murray to win, and really hope I am wrong.

I Del Potato /Janowicz final would be a real battle of the giants- 6ft 6 versus 6ft 8. Grin That's 2 whole feet taller than me. Scary. Tennis

Kyle Edmund is just getting underway but I can't find it anywhere or even live scores on BBC tennis.
