1st set ferrer vamos!

MacenroeTheBoatAshore · 27/05/2014 12:31

I read a interview he gave and he was saying how mentally he is struggling, he achieved his ambition but not really, he won but didn't and said he was finding that very hard to cope with along with the added pressure of being a gs champion. Hope he finds his form later in the year.

Think Murrays the same after W and US ND oLYMPIC

DramaAlpaca · 27/05/2014 12:38

Oh no, Grigor Sad

Also I see from the Slam Tracker that Li Na has lost in three sets Shock and that Lleyton Hewitt is in trouble.

Vamos, Ferrer!

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 12:54

Oh no, Grigor out, that's a shame. :( Gasquet is so very french n'est pas? Especially his legs :) I really like him, and his backhand is a thing of great beauty.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 13:11

First set to Gasquet.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 13:22

Marion might giggle a lot but she's not afraid to say what she thinks :) I'm getting the impression she doesn't much approve of Bernard.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 13:41

Second set to Gasquet. Tomic has checked out of this match.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 13:59

Hmm, Bernard trying a bit harder in this set - the thought of facing his dad must be scaring him into putting in a bit of effort.

Raahh · 27/05/2014 13:59

Have they mentioned Tomic's dad at all? Or is that and Andrew Castle obsession? Grin

I quite like Gasquet. Glad Ferrer got through.

I like Marion- she really isn't a great commentator, but I think that makes her all the more charming. She really does speak as she finds, which is much better than a lot of the brown-nosing that goes on.

I have had to go out and settle library debtsGrin

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:04

And Jack Sock (yay!) is playing later. But he's playing Almagro, si I don't fancy his chances much.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:10

Hi Raahh, nice to have company - thought I must be only lazy person parked in front of tv (not that I'm calling you, or anyone else watching, lazy!)

Actually, I think Tomic Snr has only been mentioned once. And you're right about Marion speaking as she finds. A while ago Nick said "So Marion, as Gasquet's doubles partner ...", at which point Marion, giggling, says "Doubles partner? I only played one match with him!"

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:16

Reeshard wins :)

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:17

Or in English - Richard wins.

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:18

Oh, I am lazy.Grin

I don't really want to watch Murray. But it's better than nothingGrin

I think yesterday was a better day, spectator wise, though I suppose that depends on who you supportGrin

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:25

I really like Heather. I hope she can get back to the level she deserves to be at.

I have never taken to Laura Robson, and I remember Sam Smith implying she is quite difficult to work with. She is still very young though.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:31

Have you seen the YouTube clip of Djok with the ball boy in the rain? Check out "french open in the rain with novak djokovic". It's nice :)

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:36

Snap Raahh on pretty much everything you just posted :) inc being lazy, watching Andy, preferring Heather etc. I was just listening to Heather and thinking she really reminds me of someone but I can't put my finger on it.

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:38

Andy's wearing a shirt which definitely falls within the citrus range of colours I'd say ....

Mama1980 · 27/05/2014 14:48

Yep Juan that clip is so sweet Smile
Cross between a lime and a lemon I'd say.......

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:49

Ooh, a bit neon- citrus, it's like a lemon/lime mix.

Golubev obviously hasn't cottoned on to the jinx of the limon yet.

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:49

x-posts.

we know our citrus fruitsWink

JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:52

The Jinx of the Limon :) It will become as big as The Curse of the Mummy you know.

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:55

It could ( i hope Rafa doesn't appear in Orange next, or I will be worried) Grin

Golubev's shorts are horrible.

(This shows how uninterested i am in the match)

Grin Tennis
JuanPotatoTwo · 27/05/2014 14:56

This is going all Andy's way far too easily for my liking.

Raahh · 27/05/2014 14:59

uninterested? disinterested?

Grin

We must harness Le Curse de les fruits citrus (or something).

C'mon Golubev, think 'Bagnis'
