WIMBLEDON 2012 PART 2

[MrsVamos]

Here we are, a new home for the second week.

Rafa will be sorely missed.

Rooting for Roger.

Could there/will there be more upsets ? If last week is anything to go by, is this years Wimby anyone's for the taking ?

New balls

Will be strange to not have Rafa there in the second week. Thank goodness Federerererer squeaked through. And hurrah for Murray!

So we have in the men's draw:

Djokovic -v- Troicki
Gasquet -v- Mayer
Federererer -v- Malisse
Istomin -v- Youzhny
Ferrer -v- Del Potro
Cilic -v- Murray
Tsonga -v- Fish
Baker -v- Kohlschreiber

Who's actually left in? Recap, please!

Christ that was a good x-post!

And the rest?

Ooooh LineRunner spooky!

There are I believe some women left too. I can look those up too if you want.

Sorry feminists, note no one except DD2 and DH gives a monkeys who's left in the ladies.
DD2 is routing for Lisiki and DH is just eyeing up shrieky's legs.

Shriekipova -v- Lisicki
Clijsters -v- Kerber
Radwanska -v- Giorgi
Kirilenko -v- Peng
Williams -v- Shvedova
Schiavone -v- Kvitova
Pascek -v- Vinci
Ivanonic -v- Azarenka

Marking my spot on Henman hill Murray mount!

Ninth!

oh poopants

Tenth!

Drops balls on thread.

I'm going to brush up on my fish puns...

I think an ova will win the ladies 3/16 chance!

predictions

Djokovic
Gasquet
Federererer, but Malisse will put up a good fight
Istomin
Ferrer but will be close
Murray, just to be patrotic
Tsonga -v- Fish, what a game that promises to be, Tsonga I reckon
Kohlschreiber

I like Shrieky and find her enjoyable to watch. Her noises mean that the rest of the family leave me in peace.

I like Tsonga, but reallyreallyreally want Troicki to beat Djikdok. I saw him being interviewed and he came across as a charming man.

Raahhfa you might want to change your shorts for some with bigger pockets. We really don't want errant balls bouncing all over the thread.

Maryz, Tsonga may once again be relegated to 'the red button' (which doesn't help people who can't get it are too dumb to figure out how it works

I think we are in for a good week of tennis. I tell you what, I have bloody missed it today. I felt bereft.

I have actually had to do housework and things today. OK, I wont get anymore done for a week, but that's by the by.

It's a horrible thought, this time next week it will all be over for another year.

I had to smile during the Murray match. Some of the crowd were calling "Go on Rafa !". I love it when they do that.

I was half torn between wanting it to finish, and seeing what would happen if they needed another set. Wimby would have been in chaos !

Marking my place. The line up tomorrow looks great. Only bad thing about Wimby week 2 is that the men are only on every second day.

I had to leave the house. DH made me go to the park with him and the DC to supervise DS2/play tennis with DS1.

I don't want to be outside playing tennis, I want to be inside watching tennis.

Yes, but we have them for the whole day.

Last years Wednesday was magic. I loved that day, and that thread.
