Why did she change coach straight after Wimbledon?
Anyone know?

It’s very exciting! What a huge achievement. And I’m so glad she was able to overcome any nerves she had and keep going.

She really has nothing to lose (if you know what I mean) but I’m sure as a sports women she’s going in with a winning mindset

ElizabethTudor · 11/09/2021 21:18

Ooooh, here we go. Fingers crossed. Go Emma!!

The fucking prime app is down

Says it's their end - error code 3716 or something

So fucking annoyed

I am weirdly emotional about this match! Both have done amazingly to get here. I can’t get my 18 year old to tidy her room some days and look at these two!

Go emma

LaurieFairyCake · 11/09/2021 21:22

On channel 4 app it says 'programme unavailable' - which means that you had to have it on at 8pm when the programme started

No terrestrial tv

I'm now in the 1940s and listening to it on the radio GrinHmm

megletthesecond · 11/09/2021 21:25

Ubra yes! Even my almost 15yr old had a moment of reflection when he realised Raducanu was only three years older than him.

ElizabethTudor · 11/09/2021 21:26

Bollocks. That’s annoying.
Hopefully the PrimeApp will work again soon.

Knittingupastorm · 11/09/2021 21:27

Does anyone else find the ball much harder to see than at Wimbledon? Which makes no sense since it’s against a blue background rather than the grass but I’m struggling to follow it.

Maybe it’s my eyes!

Rollerbird · 11/09/2021 21:29

I'm biting my nails

I find the lack of line judges odd too.
I keep thinking Ivan hear the ball touch the net, yet the beeper isn’t beeping.
I prefer line judges.

This is the BBC World Service.

Superb return!

NiceGerbil · 11/09/2021 21:33

I put in on c4 at 9 no probs at all.

God they're brilliant! So exciting already!

LaurieFairyCake · 11/09/2021 21:33

We're in - had to go through the website on the tv to get to it

Stupid prime app not working
