WIMBLEDON MEN'S FINAL- Will it be gr8 for Federer, or a trio of triumphs for Djokovoc?

So, here we are again- deja vu, all over again. Tomorrow it will be-

Fed v Djok.

Becker v Edberg.

I'm thinking it might be the Synth's year- but Djok has had a very good tournament. Of course 'but RG will be playing on his mind' will be on the lips of all the commentators, but I'm not sure about that.

Ready? Play!

Sadly not, MrsV. Never mind. This is my first drink in nearly 3 weeks, since before moving house, and it's going down nicely.

I am all far keeping the tournament outdoors, but when you anticipate disruption, it makes more sense to just use the multi - million pound roof!

CremeEggThief · 12/07/2015 16:36

for, not far.

oneowlgirl · 12/07/2015 16:36

World sensation phenomenon - Becker really loves himself Grin

Raahh · 12/07/2015 16:38

I don't get why they aren't closing the roof. Outdoor tournament Hmm- yes but you spent MILLIONS on a roof!

It's it is like the other day, they won't be out long.

Oh, shame, Creme.

Agree completely re roof. Specially when they tell us all about the new roof for Court 1 due in 2019. Which will probably also get minimal use.

Which is good, don't get me wrong. But use it when its needed !

Its not like we don't know its going to rain !

I can't see him without thinking of his elicit encounter in a broom cupboard!

CremeEggThief · 12/07/2015 16:39

Exactly, MrsV and Raah.
Neither player looks happy. I wonder is it because they're not closing the roof?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 12/07/2015 16:39

I remember that match. I was in Germany at the time and the entire country was tennis mad, which is unusual for Germany. It was quite something. I was about 15 at the time. I totally remember the Becker-Lendl match the following year too (in Germany for the summer again!)
I think that helped to solidify my love of spectator tennis as a grown up.

GrouchyKiwi · 12/07/2015 16:40

Yy. Rain delays are boring.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 12/07/2015 16:41

Ere we go again

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:42

I think the players hate delays. Ruins momentum.

Predict after the second, maybe third delay they will close.

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:43

And Tim-on-the-committee utters the words

"outdoor tournament". Hmm

Raahh · 12/07/2015 16:45

oh, MrsV Rafa in teeny shorts.....

Although his RG one's were smaller than normal. Grin

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:46

They were, Raahh and tighter.

Saw some lovely arse shots. Grin

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:47

I know Castle is talking but all I can hear is blah blah blah blah.

CremeEggThief · 12/07/2015 16:48

Does anyone know how Tim got chosen to be on the committee? I thought you had to be a winner to get privileges hereConfused.

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:48

Looks quite bright there now.

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:50

Don't know, Creme.

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:51

Good service game.

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:52

Well bloody use it then Wimby !

Stop telling us about it. Its very frustrating.

CremeEggThief · 12/07/2015 16:54

Dropping his serve after he had chances to break is going to haunt RogerSad.

MrsVamos · 12/07/2015 16:54

Oh poo.

Raahh · 12/07/2015 16:54

ohSad

Come on, Roger!
