TENNIS THREAD - Wimbledon starts tomorrow!!

[magimedi]

Am most excited & thought the grass needs a new thread.

I'll stick my neck out & say Fed to win the mens' & Carolina Plisshkova (sp?) for the womens'.

I like Halep's shorts.

I like her shorts too, I can never understand why nearly all the players wear skirts/dresses.

I don't know who to root for in this match.

I am rooting for the umpire, what a fabulous voice!

I like her shorts too, very flattering.

I really want halep to win this. I like her a lot. She's come so close at slams.
This could be a close match.

Halep's shorts are good. Agree that it's strange more don't wear them.

Jo doing well. I'm hiding from the children and watching this match on my laptop.

I don't really mind, but I slightly favour Jo.

Yes, I love this umpire too. He should be given some audio books to voice!

Bit cruel of the BBC to show that chap nodding off to sleep

I find my tennis skirt way more comfortable and flattering than shorts.

Argh. Another tie break. Come on, Jo! Get this one, please.

Well , a 3rd set is fair enough. Both are playing well.

But I'm still wanting Halep to win.

Jo's been gone a while.

Go on Jo!

Mac is funny .

It's unfair not to let her hit a few balls- and a bit out of order for Konta to take so long, really.

Come on Halep!

new thread

before this one fills up !

But I will fill this one up anyway.

It's a much more competitive match than the Venus one.

I really want a Muguruza/Halep final. Happy with any winner, then.

new thread

Every time I go away Halep plays better. Maybe I should stop watching!

Well done Jo - another great game!

Haleps shorts should have their own twitter account. Very cool.
I hope she does well in her next tournament, good player.
