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?

I always watch things with subtitles on, due to having very loud children.

During Murray matches its best to watch with the sound off.

Yes but with e subtitles on you can see their words and its even more inane than hearing them.

The Twitter thing is funny.

Wonderful banter !

It's almost like they're real people like us!

oh dear looks like he had jarred his shoulder.

And still Castle is focused only on Murray.

Something tells me Castle would be delighted if Troicki couldn't play at all.

Rain delay?

you would think Kim would have a Queen's brolly.

oh gosh, the subtitles! I have them on all the time and here are just a few howlers....

proper words v subtitles:

Giles Simon - Jill his mother

Ladies and gentlemen- Ladies and jumped on

Djokovic- Jock at it

Andy Murray- Andy Morrison.

Loads more I cant remember.

Hope Troikis okay, that looked painful.

Wanted Jill His mother to win, not paleface! Giles is a typical gallant frenchman, with a sexier look and voice too!

In There are some terrible ones.

My favourite the other day was Molluscs in Rafas box.
I think it was meant to say monarchs.

Why did they let them come out again, if the rain clearly isn't going away?

bloody rain! Eurosport showing highlights of womens semis.

OOps, should say womens semi final!

saw enough before of Cilics semi in the US final! .

Gosh is there a lesser of 2 evils between Castle and Inverdale? go away!

Castle is marginally worse.
But only just.

So, match restarts at 11.

my dcs are NOT going to be happy.

I'm glad its 11- I really need a lie in.

Until then...

Love your kittens Grouchy

I wonder if Troicki's shoulder will be OK for him to play today?

He may want to make sure he is fit for Wimbledon & it'll be a walk over for Andy.

Wishful thinking there, magi

Have finally seen Troicki's fall. Looks bloody sore. Listening to the commentators speculating rubbish. Want to introduce them to the concept of hypermobility.

Hope Andy can win, and quickly. It's going to be a long day for whoever goes through.

they are trying to hide the fact they are secretly delighted that Troicki is injured. They are not hiding it very well.

Agree, Raahh.

Don't think I've ever seen such a close challenge. Lucky stuff.

Castle is an irritating idiot.

Sack the line judge.

I like his glasses.
