Are we all changing our tennis Tennis nicknames now till the next tournament then?

I might find a more witty one next time! Tennis

ClayDavis · 07/07/2013 18:20

Taking nothing away from Andy, I agree that Djok v Potato was the match of the tournament.

Chipstick10 · 07/07/2013 18:21

Agree alex salmond is a prat. He will get his comeuppance next year for sure. What a un dignified thing to do.

siezethenight · 07/07/2013 18:22

He doesn't like being interviewed. He says that back when he first started winning, he did an interview and the interviewer took what he said the wrong way and reported it as such. That's where this sulky, I hate the world attitude that people think he has has come from. He said he has been wary of interviews ever since.

It's been really exciting this year - mixing up the shots, loads of tricky stuff that you think someone has no chance of returning and then they do. Hugely entertaining - unlike the olden days when the men's game was just ace after ace after ace.

GameSetAndMatch · 07/07/2013 18:23

and YY the Djok/Potro matych as THE match of the tournament.

What a tournament. wierd wierd wierd but ultimately the winners are thouroughly deserving.

in the ladies, just a breath of fresh air to not see the shouty usuals, and yes look how quiet the 2 finalists played. Tennis.

Im so gushy! Tennis

siezethenight · 07/07/2013 18:24

I don't know what Salmond said? I was busy jumping all over dc's because he won then yelling over fence with neighbour Grin

siezethenight · 07/07/2013 18:25

Back in the olden day - lol edam You are young, aren't you? I am so old - waaaiiillll.....

Chipstick10 · 07/07/2013 18:26

I think Murray is a cold fish, he could've thanked Kim and his mum. He didn't even remember to hug her. #disappointing.

LadyBeagleEyes · 07/07/2013 18:26

Alex Salmond isn't so bad.
You really do hate the Scots Chipstick, don't you?

edam · 07/07/2013 18:27

I wish, seize! Grin Was just a turn of phrase.

siezethenight · 07/07/2013 18:28

Ohhh, don't fight ladies, come on. Each has an opinion, leave it there.

I may have to go shower once ds's pizza is cooked, feel all worn out!

GameSetAndMatch · 07/07/2013 18:28

chip i think he was just so in shock, hed had a speech prepared but lost it all in the moment! Tennis.

and he did hug her, she wasnt in the box, he went looking for her.

GlaikitFizzog · 07/07/2013 18:29

His mum wasn't sitting with the rest of his team!! He probably thought it was all too much for her. And he did thank his team!

Chipstick, my gran used to say "if you don't have anything nice to say, say nothing at all"

edam Grin You mean Sampras Era when it was all whack an ace and be done with it. I look back to McEnroe and Connors = old.... God.

diddl · 07/07/2013 18:30

"Olden days"-edam??

How far are you going back?

siezethenight · 07/07/2013 18:30

That is 'God' at my age not 'God at you - here have flowers Flowers in case that read wrong!

JakeBullet · 07/07/2013 18:32

tbh, I think AM was actually quite shell shocked...too shell shocked to remember to do anything like hug his Mum. He seemed absolutely bewildered in a "I cant believe tis is real and I've done it" way. Grin

edam · 07/07/2013 18:33

Grin Honestly, I am very far from young - put it this way, shop assistants call me Madam, not Miss, and my age starts with a 4... Was just a turn of phrase!

MrsBungle · 07/07/2013 18:34

What a fab match. Well done Andy.

Raahh · 07/07/2013 18:34

I agree that the Djoko/Del Potato match was the absolute match of the tournament. The final was good,but in no way a classic. But it will be remembered as such, because Andy won. Deservedly so, but there have been better finals.

I am missing most of the Mixed doublesSad

Chipstick10 · 07/07/2013 18:35

Not at all ladybeagle, hate is a very strong word. I try not to hate.

VikingVagine · 07/07/2013 18:36

Salmond didn't say anything, he just held up a massive Scottish flag behind Cameron when Andy won. Tosser.

LadyBeagleEyes · 07/07/2013 18:36

Well you don't like us much Chipstick, I've seen a lot of your posts.
Whatever.

galletti · 07/07/2013 18:38

Blimey Chopstick - give the guy a chance. He had just won the Championship in amazing style on a super hot day, was in shock, and you are calling him a cold fish for not thanking mum and Kim? Actuallyl, he did mention his mum in the speech, and I am sure there will be lots of thankyous in private as it should be. You are disappointed by that after what has been achieved today. Really?!
