Anyone watching Kyrgios v Djokovic?

It's annoying me how Kyrgios is having ongoing conversations with his coach etc in the players' box.

And his backwards baseball cap!

Where is gentleman Federererererer when you need him?!

What was with the female suddenly talking during the commentary?

Sounded like she was on the phone to someone.

awaynboilyurheid · 10/07/2022 16:55

I am not watching, cannot stand either of them, one is a dangerous deluded man and the other throws temper tantrums and beats his girlfriend , yet he is allowed on the centre court and feted like a hero.Disgraceful.

Todd Woodbridge From the bbc news website commentary:

‘We see the difference between the two professionals one is staying hydrated, getting his heart rate down.

And then we have Nick doing whatever.’

@EmmaGrundyForPM - it sounded like Clare Balding, I think a mic got left plugged in by accident. Didn’t seem like the court could hear, just TV viewers

This is gladiatorial, isn't it?

Covetthee · 10/07/2022 16:57

I mean you have to be seriously hot headed to make djokovic seem like the cool calm one.

Do you think the umpire for this match drew the short straw? Or upset a higher power at Wimbledon....?!

I bet he's dreaming of escaping the constant moaning of NK for a long, cold Pimms in his garagem.

Who's the woman in the asymmetric top?

ChinBristles · 10/07/2022 16:58

I think sport should be like exams. Once you are into your match/exam, you are not allowed to take further instruction from your teacher/coach/family whatever.

I’d hate to be the umpire

brown543 · 10/07/2022 16:58

Garden. Not garage. That would be odd. And very hot today.

He's a brave man.....

Who's he ranting at when he's sitting down? Is he just talking to himself?

I believe coaching isn't allowed at Wimbledon. I guess he's talking at them but they're not replying.

Yes, very gladiatorial. I am reminded of the "are you not entertained?" line from the film.

stratforduponavon · 10/07/2022 16:59

Nick is a disgrace. Four letter words, rants. Just give it a rest and play tennis. You are in the final. Grow up. You are a terrible example of a sportsman.

Kyrgios' sister

Thanks

Think he was talking/ranting to the umpire that time @Ginajo

boredsolicitor · 10/07/2022 17:01

was ranting at the umpire just now about him not making right line calls.
i think asymmetric top lady is his sister

toomuchlaundry · 10/07/2022 17:01

Who is the lady in the pink puffball dress?

StationaryMagpie · 10/07/2022 17:01

he was ranting at the umpire, the umpire has the power to overrule the line judges, and if he thinks their call was wrong, should challenge.. Nick is basically saying that the Umpire should be doing his job and overrulling the lines judges if he thinks its a dodgy call, not leaving it up to the players to use their challenges.
