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?

my phone keeps losing connection.

And if they mention his bloody wedding ring again.... Haven't they got anything else to talk about? Or is he that dull yes he is

I'm having Mumsnet issues too.

I like Verdasco's name.

Mn is being mean to me :(

Not sure I can listen to the commentary through this match - they seem to have forgotten there are two players.

I wonder if poor old Pot has had his surgery yet, it's scheduled for today. He put a video up on his FB page a couple of days ago talking about his wrist problems and how hard a time it's been. He looks so sad - I so hope this most recent op can do the job.

Afternoon all. Finally managed to see some tennis and mumsnet goes crazy, typical.
I agree when will they stop talking about his bloody ring!
Hope everyone is good?
Very much team verdasco but it's not a good start....

Well I didn't see it (the ring that is). Not that I want to.

FUCK THE FUCK OFF ABOUT THE RING.

and Juan- I said earlier i would need to watch this with the sound off, and he might as well be playing on his own, for all the credit they will give Verdasco.

It really, really pisses me off

I'm sure you can't tell

Haha Raahh. They had a good old chat about the ring.

I'm glad it was an MN problem- I was worried it was my phone for a bit there.

So have they mentioned the ring yet or not Raahh?

As a fan of Andy, even I find the commentary awfully grovelly.

mama It's not a good start, but I think he might warm up a bit.

There isn't really anyone left in the draw I much fancy, except for Milos. But if I come out in open support of him you can guarantee he will lose his next match.

Grouchy it is nauseating. They even manage to do it when he isn't even playing*. Why not just have a tournament just for him, and let the rest of us enjoy watching all^ the players?

Went a bit italics happy.

White is not Andy's colour.

Totally Juan, my support also seems to be the kiss of death these days
Hope so Raahh.

Juan me too. I wouldn't mind if Cilic won. immediately ruins his chances

Oh I forgot about Cilic. How could I? Sorry Marin.

Break back here would be good
Oops forgot cilic too

Yay!!!

Woo hoo!
These commentators are driving me crazy though

That makes the match more interesting.

Commentators making excuses.

Raahh - do you just support anyone who is not Murray?

Grouchy- yes, they are. Never mind the opponent's play, it has to be because Murray isn't concentrating.

Vamos Ferdy!
