Hi all, I'm missing so much tennis just catching the start of the Murray match.
Wimbledon was amazing, I will post pics when I get time to download them. Was on centre court so luckily got to see matches all day, I was right at the front due to the wheelchair thing so the view was amazing. Ds1 had a great day and dd2 actually, stayed quiet think she was mesmerised by the balls going back and forth.Smile
Didn't see any of rafas match but seems like he lost to a guy just playing great?
Am firmly in the dimitrov camp here Smile vamos Grigor!!

MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:05

Bet Novak does it in 3.

MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:06

Hello Mama

So pleased you had a great time, can't wait to see pics. Smile

Is amusing as the commentators all struggle to say anything other than that Andy is not playing well Grin

Raahh · 02/07/2014 14:08

mama -that sounds great- yes, Rafa lost, but didn't play badly.it was close- Kyrgios played a brilliant match- but the aces helped. He's playing Raonic today, second only to Kyrgios in the aces stakes. Which could be interesting.

Raahh · 02/07/2014 14:09

Miranda- it is funny. when any other day, they would be gushing over Dimitrov, and feel they can't today!

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 02/07/2014 14:11

Tbf, he's defending champ because he beat Djok and everybody else went out in the 2nd round. It's bit like the argument you made the other day for Nadal being GOAT over Fed because the only time Fed ever won RG was when Nadal went out in the only round.

He's OK on grass and much better than he was, I just don't think it's his favoured surface. And Nadal has won Wimbledon twice, including beating Fed who probably is the greatest grass player of all time at least, so he's hardly rubbish on grass.

JuanPotatoTwo · 02/07/2014 14:11

Hi mama. So glad you had a good day. Looking forward to the pics.

DramaAlpaca · 02/07/2014 14:14

I went home and got my laptop at lunchtime.

I now have it beside me on my desk, have got Expat Shield installed so I can access the iPlayer, and am watching the Murray match live Smile

I am still Grin at Heman!!!

MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:14

Rafa

Always the voice of reason. You are so fair to all !

I do wonder where Novaks head was last Finals day. I did think Andy would win, but not in 3. That shocked me.

I also think that he HAD to win last year, or he never would have.

I thought he had his Slam at the US and that the Olympics was a bonus (but doesn't really count).

Raahh · 02/07/2014 14:15

Rafa- I wanted to say that about why Murray won last year, but am a coward. Grin. Plus, Djok has a marathon semi final (poor Potato).

and yes- 2008, easily one of the best ever finals. Absolutely, a match with the best 2 players at that time, (and possibly ever)slogging it out.

Mama1980 · 02/07/2014 14:15

have missed you all and the tennis banter Smile (it's only been 2days I clearly need a life!)
Agree the commentators are funny, trying to talk up Murray when the other day dimitrov was awesome. Think he's come out and looks so confident, I really hope he can do this.
One of the best things about watching live was not having Andrew castle et al talking!
Novak has the first 6-1 don't think there's gonna be a upset there.

MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:15

You wont let me forget that in a hurry, will you ?

JuanPotatoTwo · 02/07/2014 14:16

That's going to piss him off.

Mama1980 · 02/07/2014 14:17

I remember watching the 2008 final it was incredible, think it has to be candidate for the best match ever. my ds1 was only a few months old and new out of hospital and had actually fallen asleep for once I kept sprinting from room to room to check on him every two minutes and check the scores.

Raahh · 02/07/2014 14:18

Dimi also has ,as i've said one of the best lookng best coaches. Apart from Stefan Grin

MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:19

THAT Final was something else, wasn't it ?

Remember how it got dark and they were talking about stopping ?

Just brilliant.

DoctorTwo · 02/07/2014 14:19

I haven't seen Murray get a monstering like that first set ever. Unbelievable Jeff. :)

I got Halep and Bouchard right! Shock

Raahh · 02/07/2014 14:19

Grigor is really going for it.

This year is shaping up to be a really interesting one.

MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:20

Oo-er !

This is getting better...

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 02/07/2014 14:21
