Women's is always a bit disappointing. I never have worked out why !

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 16:38

Good hold for Halep ! Is she going to be able to bring it back ?

Does anyone know the connection between Genie & Jim Parsons ?

He's in her box.

Well held, Halep.

A few nerves there from Bouchard, I think. I couldn't catch what the argument with the umpire was all about.

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 16:42

I think crowd calling. She was saying umpire should have waited for silence before allowing play to continue...

DramaAlpaca · 03/07/2014 16:42

Ah, OK.

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 03/07/2014 16:44

Was it Bouchard last year who had 3 match points and then went on to lose the match?

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 16:44

Bouchard wins !

Well done Genie !

I think she might just take it Saturday, you know...

OP posts:
DramaAlpaca · 03/07/2014 16:46

Well done indeed.

I agree, I think we might be looking at a new Wimbledon champion here.

Raahh · 03/07/2014 16:46

Well- i feel for Halep- but she has had a great year.

Bouchard seems very, very focussed.

And you don't get many of the juniors actually going on to do well in the seniors.

Raahh · 03/07/2014 16:48

I think she will take it saturday- she is showing no real nerves, and Kvitova can be hit and miss. Genie shows amazing maturity.

But she is a plait wearer.

DramaAlpaca · 03/07/2014 16:49

It'll be a plait wearing final Grin

Raahh · 03/07/2014 16:50

Oh dear- Sue's mascara is claggy

Raahh · 03/07/2014 16:50

Drama -indeed. I hope we can tell who is who!

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 16:51

I have found the 'connection' between Genie & Sheldon !

He is her biggest, most famous fan !(along with his partner)

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 16:53

Roll on tomorrow, lovelies !

Lets hope for fine weather, long 5 setters (so we all get to see a bit of each match) and the right winners, Grigor & Fed.

Ooh, Mac picked Genie to win the tournament too !

Provencalroseparadox · 03/07/2014 16:58

Excited that Jack Sock won. Means I get to keep saying his name over and over...

DoctorTwo · 03/07/2014 17:03

I spotted Jim there too MrsV. I just said "ooh, it's Sheldon, I mean Jim Parsons!" :o

GrouchyKiwi · 03/07/2014 17:04

I heard that Bouchard and Parsons were very good friends.

Not surprised she won; hope the final is better.

DelicianoLopez · 03/07/2014 17:27

glad Murrays not made any excuses (illness etc) about his loss.

was Bouchards coach coaching from the side when the person in the crowd fainted and the ump was distracted?

wanted Halep to win.

didn't mind who won of the othr 2.

Jamie playing now the mixed.Tennis

magimedi · 03/07/2014 17:29

When they switched away from the moment when someone in the crowd was taken ill - Sue Barker was trying to cheer us up with no more Wimbledon next week, but never mind, it's golf!

Golf - FFS, watching golf is akin to watching paint dry.

I've had enough of Sue & as for Tim - words fail me, he is such a prat.

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 17:33

Golf ?

Spoils a good (dog) walk. Grin

Wasn't even aware there is still a Murray at Wimbledon. Blush

Losing for now, but still there !

DelicianoLopez · 03/07/2014 17:40

been enjoying the invitations doubles, all the best players from my yoof!

seen- Casal, Leconte, Bahrami, Leach, Pioline, Santoro, woodford, and Gregs still got the ace thing going!

Tennis

love all the doubles, well done Stepanek and Paes- how old is Paes now?

Raahh · 03/07/2014 17:57

I have to go out- parents evening for ds's new secondary. I am not feeling great- I am hot and sweaty. I think it's my ageGrin.

And yay! to the Fabulously named Jack Sock!

what happened to Mardy Fish? Did he retire? I'm sure he was still in action a couple of years ago.

I hope tomorrow is good. With an eye to the final- I'm trying to work out the best combo for a decent Sunday. I'd like Fed and Grig, think Fed and Djok might be a tight one (especially as Djock is not playing his best, and Fed has stepped up).

I'm afraid, although he's a nice guy- and it would be a nice Canada friendly headline if he got to the final, I think Raonic could make for a dull spectacle. i might be wrong there, and he does have more of game than that.
