I am so excited!

DH takes over all catering for this fortnight (he does it at other times too) so I can plump my cushions, grab the handchange & get watching.

I'd like to be saying who I was putting my money on to win - but I really can't decide between Rafa, Federer Djokovitch & Murray.

I'd just say that it will be one of them and, sadly, I'd put Andy in last place.

Two weeks of tennis coming up!!

Bring it on. Wine (pimms) & Grin

IreneR · 26/06/2013 19:11

Roger won Halle this year.

GameSetAndMatch · 26/06/2013 19:11

With Colin Fleming this time. oops, Flemings suddenly injured too!

are we watching Wimbledon or an episode of Casualty? Tennis

IreneR · 26/06/2013 19:14

So who IS this Stakhovsky guy? I'm only listening, so I can't see how play is going. Is he playing the match of his life? Is Roger flagging?

I am disliking how much support the crowd is giving the other guy -- nice for Murray to face this guy I suppose.

GameSetAndMatch · 26/06/2013 19:14

yes, Murray, delpotato, Brown, Berdych, Djoko, still plenty left.

ill miss Cilic though, hes a bit pleasing to the eye!!!! Tennis

IreneR · 26/06/2013 19:15

A service break would be lovely about now.

GameSetAndMatch · 26/06/2013 19:18

anyone know why Neilsons not partnering Marray? as the defending champs?

hed said he doesnt want to play doubles but apparantly hes partnering Matowtski?

Love Colin Fleming though, nice to see him carry on playing, hope Hutchins comes back soon again though. Tennis

Raahh · 26/06/2013 19:19

Ferrer- don't forget Ferrer!

BBMs · 26/06/2013 19:20

Can't believe what I'm watching! Have been glued to the tv since 11am and most of the day has been a joke...
I usually do not like Federer but can't stand to lose another seed...

AnyFucker · 26/06/2013 19:23

I think it's great the top seeds are being challenged so effectively !

AnyFucker · 26/06/2013 19:24

oooh, Rog, you are losing it baby

ClayDavis · 26/06/2013 19:25

Ahem, IreneR. Tennis Grin

GameSetAndMatch · 26/06/2013 19:25

sorry Raah of COURSE Ferrer. anyone have the answer to the knickers/feds shoes question yet? Tennis

AnyFucker · 26/06/2013 19:26

woo-hoooooo

DevlinMaccabee · 26/06/2013 19:28

Come on Stakhovsky!

GameSetAndMatch · 26/06/2013 19:28

oh no, looks like Colin Flemings in an injury troublefest too Sad.

Too much change from clay to grass? but then after this its the hard court season, so they MUST be used to all the surface changes, or they are playing too many tournaments and are burnt out?

Raahh · 26/06/2013 19:29

Game- Grin

no- it bugs me too about Serena with her neon headband and pants. Since the court is grass, it's not like the gold colouring on Fed's soles could mark it.

Shock do you think the covering up of the gold is the reason for Feds current slump?Grin

Did he paint over them with tippex?GrinTennis

GlaikitFizzog · 26/06/2013 19:30

Thought they were orange not gold?

Oft, are we going to lose fed too?

ClayDavis · 26/06/2013 19:31

Come on Rog!

Madamecastafiore · 26/06/2013 19:35

Bloody hell, come on Rog. Can't give bloody minty Murray a clear run to victory!!! Confused

amigababy · 26/06/2013 19:37

I love watching Roger under pressure, under that perfect gentleman veneer there's that absolute steeliness that comes from being at the top so long. I don't like to see him struggle though, he better pull through this.

Raahh · 26/06/2013 19:38

actually glaikit- you've made me think, saying orange.I think I heard someone say that that the orange on his soles, is the same as the orange of the Nike flash on his shirt/headband was one bit of sponsorship/advertising too far.

But i might have made that up.

ClayDavis · 26/06/2013 19:38

Ok, who is this guy on court? And what has he done with the real Roger Federer?

Stakhovsky is playing well, but this Federer is not the same player that was on court on Monday.

Raahh · 26/06/2013 19:39

Today has seen the return of the serve /volleyer- I like it.

amigababy · 26/06/2013 19:40

Mirka looks even more fed up than I am and I've got a pile of ironing to tackle!
