WIMBLEDON THREAD 3 NEW BALLS PLEASE

[MrsVamos]

Week 2

Round 4

Ready ?

PLAY !

Well, Rafa got to the second week.

Rafa has done well, I think. He hasn't had any easy draw, we said that from the beginning. But there will be no excuses from Rafa.

This is how we felt after we watched him last week. He is amazing

I agree - the new era of tennis is emerging. Amazing to see.

Sad for Rafa but Nick was fantastic - hope he keeps it up.

That's how we felt. That he was the new and could only improve

Well. Its got to be Nick all the way, hasn't it ?

Well done, Nick, very impressive. He was cool as a cucumber when he served out the match.

Sorry for Rafa, but that win was well deserved.

And I agree with Raahh and RafaIsTheKingOfClay that we are watching something different to the Rosol & Darcis defeats. We are watching the new generation and it's good to see.

Damn, I turned over.

I am not a fan of Rafa but how lovely for Nick given he is a wild card player.

He looks fresh as a daisy.

Nick is a good person to pass the mantle on to.

Got his head screwed on right, by the sounds of it.

Interviews well !

Lovely to see !

Uh oh, he sounds a bit pissed off with his ma.

I now find myself hoping that Nick is the next Boris Becker and will go on to win the whole thing as a teenager in his first Wimbledon.

Great interview, too.

Ooh are some of you joining me in Kamp Kyrgios

What's his story with his mum??

MrsV- Yes, Nick.

Or Grigor.

Either will do.

The Aussies have waited a while for a new star. Tomic hasn't fulfilled the brief. C'mon Nick.

He definitely feels like a proper star.

But my heart belongs to Rafa, and nothing can take his achievements away.

Remember, Rafa won RG at his first attempt.....

I fancy him, after hearing him speak.

Don't know fox but he certainly didnt seem very happy with her just then.

sorry belated

Yes, provencal.

Why do we get it right before the pundits do ?

I think we all need to apply for Wimby commentator jobs !

Provencal i am firmly Camp Tennis. I love to see new players who are worthy of the hype. All too often, it's empty. I loved how fearless he was. Nothing whatsoever to lose.

The journos will go mental looking for that story.

Totally different to last year. That was the old guard injured and far from their best being knocked out by less good players.

This year feels like those same players, playing well and being challenged by new, talented player.

Kyrgios has just leapt up the rankings from 144 to 66 according to the live ranking site.

That was an incredibly good match, so close all the way through. Probably the best of the tournament so far. I've decided I would love Eugenie Brouchard to win. And either Murray or Kyrgios...

Wasn't it nice to see his sister weep?

Oh yeah ! Feck ! Grigi !

Shows what a talent Nick is.

I forgot.

I still day Djok for the championship. But I think Nick will come through Raonic tomorrow. Uncle Toni is preparing bread and water rations for poor Rafa :(
