Just finally sat down after shopping. Today is going about as well as yesterday.

Dh has bought me some of the cinnamon vodka- with gold bits. Grin

I need to pace myself. it is rather stronger than Aldi Pimms.

The Serena Slam thing is annoying me. And Lindsey is obviously one of her 'fans'. She didn't play well at the French? She blatantly cheated at the French. Why was no-one going on about tanking then? Oh yes, she was ill Hmm

Vamos Muguruza!

Raahh · 11/07/2015 13:53

I like Garbine's earrings Grin

Raahh · 11/07/2015 13:55

Mac has just called her a 'big' girl- she is tall ffs, hardly big. Would he get away with calling Serena 'big' because actually is

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 11/07/2015 13:57

Thanks Grouchy.

Here we go!

KatieScarlettreregged · 11/07/2015 13:58

Mac does make it hard for me to keep loving him.
Big girl indeed!

Raahh · 11/07/2015 13:59

So, Serena's coaches bend the rules? really?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 11/07/2015 14:00

Or not...

I fear Serena's mind games are starting already.

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2015 14:01

Sí sí. ¡Vamos Murguruza!

KatieScarlettreregged · 11/07/2015 14:02

Do the menz carry flowers?

Raahh · 11/07/2015 14:03

I wonder if they actually ever keep the flowers, or do they just chuck them?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 11/07/2015 14:03

John Macenroe "arguably the best female athlete in the last 50 years, any sport"

I want to say bolleaux but she certainly has the longevity. Aanika Sorenstam?

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2015 14:04

Yy, Raahh. Do the commentators not realise how ridiculous they sound when they tacitly approve that rule bending? They seemed amused by it.

Raahh · 11/07/2015 14:04

Hearts- Place bets as to how long it will be before she feels 'unwell' and Lindsey makes excuses for her?

Aww, big day for this little girl.

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2015 14:04

Heh, Katie. I said that to DH.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 11/07/2015 14:05

Sorry posted too soon. Meant to ask, who else can we think of to rival her? There MUST be some.

Anika - golf
Jessica Ennis - athletics
Florence Griffith Joyner - track (and fingernails)
etc

Raahh · 11/07/2015 14:06

Grouchy- it makes her a 'character' - like Kyrgios. Hmm. Mac thinks this a good thing. Which of course, he would. No-one else would get away with it. I swear, they are scared of her, and her entourage .

CremeEggThief · 11/07/2015 14:07

I hope Garbine can make this competitive. I'd love to see her win a set, or even make it a tight straight sets win.

Wrongisaswrong · 11/07/2015 14:09

I re-registered on mn just for this thread.

I am shocked by posters who claim to be avid followers are driven by hatred of Serena. Posts after posts are only ever interested in seeing her demise. Even the support you claim for her opponents pales in the hate you have for Serena.

Threads about women's tour have been unfair but the manner and tone you refer to Serena is ugly and mean

KatieScarlettreregged · 11/07/2015 14:10

You can't have read all the thread then.

CremeEggThief · 11/07/2015 14:10

John Inverdale doesn't have enough experience to be a co-commentator for a Wimbledon final!Shock

Raahh · 11/07/2015 14:11

Hearts that is a good question.

The fact I can't immediately think of anyone, doesn't mean she is though Grin

I preferred Steffi. Steffi had class.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 11/07/2015 14:12

Me too Creme.

This is reminding me of last year a bit with a relative unknown playing a big name!

KatieScarlettreregged · 11/07/2015 14:12

Go Serena!
Wink

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2015 14:16

Serena's a fabulous player, no doubt. Can't stand her attitude.

Raahh · 11/07/2015 14:16

Vamos Garbine!!
