BALLS PLEASE ! ROLAND GARROS, WIMBY, ETC....

[MrsVamos]

New thread with BALLS.

When MNHQ remember their promise.

Aww. Michael LLodra accepting an award or something as its his last FO.

I like Marion Bartoli too chattering away..

Yes!

keep forgetting the balls are back in town

So both Stan and Li Na , Aussie open winners, have lost in the first round here.

That's interesting.

Oooooh, it's the lovely Dustin .

Aahh Dustin.

Am back from work but still can't watch tennis.

Glad Heather won. I'm a bit biased in the Heather vs Robson stakes.

Well... Hello there Lokili... Where have you been all my tennis watching life?? :)

Well done Andy!!

I'd like to see him win the title!

IM with you magi,

Andy doesn't seem very popular on this thread though.

I'd like to see my husband coaching Andy

Thank goodness for this thread. Despite having access to day-long coverage, I have seen exactly zero tennis so far this week.

(But I've learned a lot about Vikings.)

It's good to know you all are keeping the flame alive.

Tomorrow, I'm going to Wimbledon!! What a shame there isn't actually any tennis being played there at the moment. But I can breathe the air, can't I?!

Oh, and an explanation please: why do you like Jack Sock particularly? Please explain the appeal.

A shame about Stan and Dimitrov. Happy about Heather.

It's his name, Irene. There just isn't a better name on the tennis scene than Jack Sock.

I'm with you as well magi about Murray. I'd like to see him win it, I'd just prefer Rafa to do it this year. Andy can have next year, or whenever Rafa retires.

Oh yes- Jack Sock has a fabulous name. Mardy Fish, a close second

muddled shouldn't you be off having an early night? :)

Riiiight, I'm remembering it from last year now ... something about Jack Sock being a cool name for a pirate....

This tournament is beginning to seem like one where someone unexpected could walk away with the prize.

muddled shouldn't you be off having an early night?

No way - but am just off bedwards!

Au revoir - see you all at Wimbledon, I'm going where the sun keeps shining , where the weather suits my clothes & I'll be swimming over the water like a porposie!!

A porpoise? Surely you mean whale?

Happy holidays :)

God,I see Nadal's draw has opened up like a knife through butter. Let's make it even easier, why don't we?
Cannot warm to his dirt balling, butt picking, twitching, time wasting, rule breaking antics. Such a miraculous recovery too from his serious knee problems, I guess the drugs do work...

Just got chance to turn on. Venus Williams about to lose her match. I know many people don't like them,( and at times they come across as crossing that fine line between super confidence and arrogance)but I'd rather have Serena and Venus than a dozen Shriekapova's any day of the week.

Patterned skirts and skin tight tops are obviously 'in' this year

I bet Djok was expecting to be on court a lot earlier than this.

Dogs was doing really well, and Granollers is drawing back to 2 sets all.

Afternoon all Just landed my fine arse on the chair after a morning of loping about the place sorting out this, that and the other... Opened the laptop for Itvplayer while cunningly pulling up work on desktop so it appears I am sat her working with tennis on in background rather than tennis with work on in background :) Genius.... I make a point of looking very busy as one or the other offspring saunter into the room - they are too easy to fool.....
Serena in trouble and Venus out, is that correct? I must never, ever go loping about when is on, I miss everything.....

Oh Dogs he threw that match away from such a positive start.

Jeremy Chardy is being out played by Djok, not surprisingly.

Serena is losing to a screamer.
