Well, here we are again, another French Open. Yay ! Grin

It's a shame we wont see Murray, as he was playing very well, it would have been great to see the Top 5 'together' again.

No prizes for guessing who the favourite for the Mens is, VAMOS RAFA ! I'd love to see him win it for the 8th time.

Roger Fed is looking well, just started playing , it would be good to see him do well, although we all know Wimby is his best tournament.

Novak seemed to be struggling a bit earlier this year, after the Aussie Open win, it will be interesting to see how he fares this year on clay. Nicely set up so that he and Rafa will meet in the Semi's, should they both play well. Which easily leads to Rafa for the Final, and his 8th win ! Don't forget, Novak fans, that Rafa beat Nole in 4 sets last year. Wink

Serena Williams is looking her usual belting self, just thrashed her opponent, she must be a consideration for the win, as must last years winner, Maria Sharapova. I'd like to see Laura Robson do well, and Heather Watson, but realistically Laura could be out in the first round.

Hope everybody enjoys the tennis as much as I do, I'm going to have a great fortnight, 9:30am to 9:00pm everyday. Bliss !

Looking forward to having our usual daft threads running, along with the ogling and arguments. Here's to another great summer of tennis ! Wine

I hate the way djokovic always seems to give in, maybe he is saving energy for the fourth set but that's where nadal is great he never gives up.

Mama1980 · 07/06/2013 14:26

These commentators are really annoying me now. Give rafa some credit!

Witt · 07/06/2013 14:27

Good news: waterbabies has been cancelled so I can watch the rest of the match Smile
Bad news: I just woke up the baby mid-nap and spent the last 10 minutes wrestling the baby into her swimming costume so I should probably go change her

Raahh · 07/06/2013 14:28

Mama- as biased commentary goes, these 2 take the Biscuit

Raahh · 07/06/2013 14:30

Think the crowd are just waiting for Tsonga Grin

Raahh · 07/06/2013 14:32

Bog off with your time penalty crap

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 07/06/2013 14:45

Hello all! I'm (belatedly) here and watching. Missed first two sets due to being stupid and convincing myself it started at 2pm Hmm. Never mind.

Raahh · 07/06/2013 14:57

Hello!

it's all getting very tense...

MrsVamosRAFA · 07/06/2013 14:58

YES! YES! YES!!

Raahh · 07/06/2013 15:00

Afternoon, MrsV - it's been great- apart from the shitty commentary[hm]

MrsVamosRAFA · 07/06/2013 15:00

He's broken him again.

Don't care what anyone, including Jim bleep Courier, says.

Rafa is without doubt, the greatest clay court player we have ever seen.

And I think Djikdock is going to be the nearly man of the Grand Slams. Got 3, but not the 4. Not quite as great as Federer and Nadal.

I would quite happily slap Mark and Jim, I really would. Grin

Mama1980 · 07/06/2013 15:03

Crap

MrsVamosRAFA · 07/06/2013 15:03

Right. 4 all.

Vamos Rafa, you can do it again.

We wanted it in 3 sets, but we'll settle for 4.

dh has just texted me to say he has an abscess in his tooth and needs it taking out.

I'm not sure if I'm more nervous for him or NadalGrin

Witt · 07/06/2013 15:07

How dare your DH try to distract you with his trivial problems. Doesn't he know what an important match this is? In fact, why isn't he watching it? Smile

Raahh · 07/06/2013 15:08

Witt- exactly! Grin

Mama1980 · 07/06/2013 15:08

Raah hope your dh is ok abscesses are horrid.
Ds2 has just woken hungry and none to pleased to find me preoccupied
Hold here then a break would be good rafa

MrsVamosRAFA · 07/06/2013 15:09

Ouch, Raahh. Give him my condolences.

VAMOS RAFA

MrsVamosRAFA · 07/06/2013 15:11
