Shockingly good tennis from federer, don't think I've ever seen him play so well. He totally deserved to win. Gutted for Andy though.

Let's hope he plays like that on Sunday!!

PinkPopPony · 10/07/2015 18:54

Isnt he ?? Blush
He just does that weird stare all the time !

MrsVamos · 10/07/2015 18:56

I would imagine Rogers signed lots of autographs over the years !

Mama

I felt like that when Rafa first went out early. Not reasonable to only like one player, so you have to get interested and transfer your loyalties so to speak.

Sometimes it does feel very flat, is that because there aren't the characters we have known still playing ? Or no-one we like ? Dunno.

I think with the likes of Rafa and Roger, and players like Ferrer etc we have been very spoilt with tennis players.

We might have to get used to it being slightly meh. Sad Grin

Where's the Bahrami/Leconte v. Castle/Tarango match gone?

Surely that has to be on Centre now, but it's disappeared from view. It was the consolation prize ... Can anyone Tweet to find out?

MrsVamos · 10/07/2015 18:58

Pink Grin

Losing his temper shows he feels emotion on court. Should show happy emotion might make more people like him ?!

That stare is I think because of his lenses. His eyes can get very dry and he's trying to get liquid moving in his eyes. Blinking doesn't always do it. (fellow lens wearer)

I enjoyed the first week more this year than the second .
I hardly dare say why I will be slaughtered ! Grin

Waltons · 10/07/2015 19:03

Thanks, MrsVamos, but b*** all apart from a lot of Ovas fighting it out in the Girls' Singles.

trixymalixy · 10/07/2015 19:04

Channel 982 on sky for bahrami/ leconte.

Waltons · 10/07/2015 19:05

Found it! Court 12, live on the Beeb!

Can't believe that that they didn't put it on Centre.

MajesticWhine · 10/07/2015 19:09

Not too fussy about Sunday. Not crazy for either of them. But will probably be team Djok. I like the idea of a newly embroidered cardigan having to be hastily stuffed back in the cupboard.

I don't like Djokovic, because I thought it was incredibly disrespectful to the game and his opponents, when he used to retire in big matches. I lost a lot of respect for Justine Henin after she did the same, in the Australian Open final against Amelie Mauresmo.

I also used to hate his family, with their tracksuits with Nole and their over the top cheering. Honestly, they were as bad as those Aussie Fanatics! Thankfully, you don't see much of them any more.

In addition, he is petty: he can't take a joke against himself, although he loved mimicking lots of other players, and he can't stand it when he's not the crowd favourite.

But he has a very good game technically and a great work ethic. I respect the single-minded determination he's shown to become the no. 1.

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 10/07/2015 19:11

Aargh I've fallen off all the threads. Missed a lot of tennis this week.

Going to wath Bahrami and Leconte now.

Waltons · 10/07/2015 19:12

Thanks, trixy - no Sky, but loving every moment now on the Beeb. Just waiting for Henri and Mansour to kick off ... Smile

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 10/07/2015 19:14

Arf @ "lots of Ovas"

Didn't get to see the match but we were following updates on line. Straight sets Shock Grin

No idea MrsV I'm watching online. Court 12 if that helps at all

trixymalixy · 10/07/2015 19:26

It's on red button 2. Loved the nadal impression!

MrsVamos · 10/07/2015 19:27

Thanks Rafa. Cba to put laptop on.

I'm stuck watching mixed doubles. Good tennis but not Bah. Sad

Am watching a bit behind. Loving leconte aiming a ball at castle's head.

MrsVamos · 10/07/2015 19:28

On my rb 2 I've got the Woodys match ? Confused

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 10/07/2015 19:29

I saw him do his 'Nadal' the other day. Grin

I wonder if Rafa himself will do it one day ? Hope so !

Waltons · 10/07/2015 19:34

Yay! Bah/Lec ahead in the 2nd!

I love those guys so much. I reckon they are just getting into their stride - the fireworks are on their way ...
