TENNIS THREAD- Grass season is in full swing, stock up on strawberries and Pimms!

999 replies

at magi's request here is the first grass thread ( we will probably need more than one!).

Can't believe it time for Queen's again. Hope the weather holds out- bit gloomy in the north west.Grin

( can't link to other thread as on my phone).

See you all later- the only thing I'm not looking forward to is the likelihood it will be Mr Castle in the commentary box.Grin

What was Andy’s tweet? Can’t see it on his twitter feed...

JaneJeffer · 02/07/2018 11:22

I would be happy if they just showed Rafa practicing all day!

Going to be a hot week here too but maybe not as hot as last week.

Fizzywinegum · 02/07/2018 11:23

So they’ve already listed all the players that Rafa has lost to at Wimbledon.

I thought that sue got Tracey mixed up with Carol the weather woman - Tracey looked very confused Grin

The I can't remember it properly, but it was along the lines of being free for the next two weeks, if anyone needs a coach. Grin

Sloane Stephens responded saying her coach is usually asleep, so she'd be up for it, Kyrgios and Zverev replied as well Grin.

Mac said definitely 'no ' to coaching Nick Grin.

Oh, now they mention Stakhovsky.

I can name who has beaten Roger. Easily.

Why so they have a handy list of the players who have beaten Rafa, but not Roger ? Angry

Andrew C didn't have a jacket on. Rebel.

PrivateParkin · 02/07/2018 11:39

Andrew's hair lacquer must be a fire risk.

Is it to do with being club members? Mac, Tim and Boris all are and AC isn't! Although surely they don't have to keep them on at all times/in all areas?!

Fizzywinegum · 02/07/2018 11:43

Boris is so unpredictable! Sue always looks nervous when he’s around Grin

Private probably. But surely they can just wear the black badge things like the women do? Without melting? Grin
