Grass court tennis/Queens championships thread

[purpleprincess]

Looking forward to a great few weeks of tennis!! Should we be asking MNHQ for some balls!!

So who is going to do well this year? Stan has tough first round match against Kyrios......and Nadal is playing Dolgo I think?

Jeeps poor Stan, I really can't warm to anderson- watching him play is just boring.

magi I don't argue with people with delusions

I thought Anderson played pretty well, but with a lot of the big servers, it can get dull.

That was a surprise.

Doubt know much about either of these two. Who do I want to win?

Obviously I need a break. Just about jumped out of my skin when there was a strange man in the house but it turned out to be the coat stand.

Don't, not doubt.

Magi: I support Andy too.

Agree that Anderson is very boring to watch.

Raahh - don't you start accusing me of beeing muddled or I shall get a raahhage!

I really like Milos, but Gasquet is pretty nifty player.

magi

Raonic looks like one of those all American boys from the 1950s. He could play Joe Hardy.

See Clarkson showed his smug mug there. and one of 1D.

Stans lovely, winking at the crowd, singing autographs after losing the match, (most others just skulk off), that was a brilliant match, spoilt only by Castle commentating.

How many times did he remind us that rafa lost yesterday?

Agree, Andertson, as well as he played is boring to watch!

raonic reminds me of the tennis version of Jimmy carr, all helmet hair and imposing eyebrows!

InDespair - he reminded us nearly as often as he mentioned his ranking

Castle is an idiot.

And Milos does look very ' all American'- for a Canadian

Magi I'm for Andy too . Enjoying watching the tennis as my DD is off sick today so no school run

Andy for me too. love the way the old rom,antic keeps his wedding ring with him, tied to his shoe.

love the name Kokinakis! Hope him and Jyrios are the new Aussie legends in the making, along with Tomic.

will miss Lleyton and his Jimmy Connors way of playing.

Kyrios.

I think keeping your wedding ring on your shoe is a bit daft, really. Clearly it must be heavily insured, or he's just not fussed if he loses it.

It's probably a spare one, from a Christmas cracker, Raahh.

magi Probably. Spent all the money on Kim's engagement ring.

I wonder how many different coloured sleeves Milos has? obviously, he has a white one for Wimbledon. Maybe he could get a checked one like Stan's shorts.

And it looks like Federer is beating Ernie. It's a shame about Gulbis- I like him, and he has lost his way this last 12 months.

this might be heading for a tie break.

ooh- 3 sets!

Milos is running away with this match.

Woah, went away for 20mins and Raonic is slaughtering him!

Is Fed playing at Queen's?
