TENNIS Thread- C'est L'Open francaise -la seconde semaine! Allez!

[Raahh]

(Apologies to any French speakers and for lack of cedilla- hazy 'A' level French and an English keyboard)

Looking forward to Monfils/Federer

That should be "Ike " sounds eminently sensible, not "I keep".

Juan- he does have a wobble at the end- I think that is why he has slipped so much over the past couple of years.

But he seems to get a buzz out of RG, understandably.

Allez!!

That was all Cilic's mum's fault - she should have read the label!

Juan

I hate tie breaks.

Oh Berdy looks on the verge of tears poor lad.

Tie break! That does it, I am wresting control of the remote away from the heathens.

Great rally. Wrong outcome.

Juan-

Right- we need the Monfils match to start before the rain comes.

Allez Jo-Willy!!

Jo has definitely got a touch of 'Can't close it out-itis'

Oh dear.

I think someone has given Berdy some magic medicine. And Jo-Willy is throwing it away.

I really don't want this to go to a 4th. Sorry Berdy.

Jo always does this. He needs someone to work on his closing out technique. I could probably fit him in if he looks sharp.

CRAP

Damn it.

It can rain now.

Never mind 'Non!'

There was a shout of 'Fucking Hell!' chez Raahh.

Look at my mug. I bet muddled doesn't have one of these!

Gael has probably gone home

That is a lovely mug, Juan

Thank you raahh, it is one of my most prized possessions. Unfortunately there is a cracking appearing round the bottom (the bottom of the mug that is) so I am forced to handle it very carefully!

Poor Fabrice, he sounds utterly deflated.

Oh I'm not sure I can watch. He's going to throw this away if he doesn't pick himself up.

This is not good.

I want it to piss it down. Sorry Rog.

Poor Jo, talking to himself.

There is hardly any support for Berdy, that must be pretty daunting.

I feel a bit sorry for Berdy, since the crowd are deathly silent whenever he wins.
