WIMBLEDON 2014- The sun is shining, the Pimms is chilling- First service!

[Raahh]

Sparkly new thread ready for Monday.

MONDAY ORDER OF PLAY from other thread.

even though Nadal is not in action on the first day, I'm looking forward to this.

And to get us in the mood...

Rafa looks well, yes ?

Total oik MrsV
Vamos!

Good start! Don't like Rosol after that interview, he seems arrogant with not necessarily anything to back it up.

Quite !

Oh but he's doing well so far in his service game...

Just signing in- obviously watching Rafa...

I am not moving all day !

Am I the only one supporting Rosol?
I can't stand Rafa's personality on court, never have and probably never will... He drives me crazy with his nervous ticks! He's nice to look at though, hence the picture earlier :)

Ummm...

Dunno, BBMs.

Lots of us supporting Rafa though.

Possibly BBM, we are a pretty rafa centric group here plus I think after that interview rosol has just lost any neutrals.

Nope BBMs, I'm behind Rosol too though I don't for a moment think he is going to win. I don't get the Rafa fanclub but one thing is certain: Nadal is too much of a champion to let Rosol get the better of him twice.

And what was wrong with him in the interview? I don't think he said anything to upset anyone! When he said Rafa should fear him, what he meant was, it is to be expected that Rosol will lose against Rafa, but it is not expected for Rafa to lose against Rosol, therefore only Rafa has anything to fear.

I better keep comments to myself then, even tho I liked the interview.
How's watching Serena? :)

Nishikori through and raonic

By 'fear' I mean 'worry about'.

I think, to be fair to Rosol, it was the interviewer who first used the word fear. Rosol just replied, turning it around iyswim.

OK, I know I am in Rafa's Den. I will shut up now.

He's arrogant with no playing record to back it up, Rosol.

Anyone remember who he beat after beating Rafa 2 years ago ?

Oh yes. No one. Problems with blood tests and didn't play next match and left Wimby under a bit of a cloud.

But the talk is all Rafa.

Awww, Jack Socks gone ?

Nishikori one to watch ?

Good tennis so far.

Could be he's kinda snuck in under the radar after the French, but he has done quite well on grass generally i think.

Could be, Mama.

Well played !

Oh dear...

Ouch.

First set Rosol.

Told you, 4 sets.

Uh oh...
