Tennis Thread- It's the US OPEN already, we're prepared for late nights, (and Amazon Prime is making us cross already)

[Raahh]

I can't believe it's nearly September, really. I'm sure the Australian open has just finished.

I'm going to spend the morning labelling school uniform . I really am.

I probably won't

This set is not going Murray’s way

Well, Kudla has got himself to a tie break- but Juan is serving very well.

Such a topsy-turvy match.

The 'live' coverage is very behind the US open website for scores...

Yes JMDP!!

And Juan has won.

Hurray!

How can he even do an interview right now?! Shouldn't he be in an ice bath somewhere?!

I was about to say to we get to see the naked ice bath interview?

Ha they always ask Delpo to say something in Spanish, after they wouldn't let him when won in 09 grudge

Raahh I did originally type naked in my post but deleted it as I didn't know if I'd be lowering the tone!! Obviously not - great minds eh?!

Well, quite, Private.

He's happy.

We always manage to lower the tone at some point .

Tee hee - yes indeed!

Right I'm off to watch Andy (and check out Nando's sartorial choices)

Just in time to see him go 2 sets to 1 up.

He looks quite relaxed, Fernando- Murray looks like he's going to moan if Nando is a few seconds longer than the allotted 10 minutes

Told you he'd be moaning...

What's Andy talking about? Who's "just sitting there chatting"?!

Oh - he meant Verdasco and his coach during the break?

He's losing- therefore, he's making out that the referee (?) and Fernando's trainer(?) were all chatting in the locker room or something.

He's like a schoolboy snitch. There was probably nothing going on at all.

Maybe Murray has no friends to talk to .

I have to say, I have not missed Murray. At all.
But I have never been a fan.

Vamos Ferdy!

The night session thing is frustrating, too- because now there is no play on Armstrong for nearly an hour.

And the only other courts Amazon is showing is the Norrie match and Isner.

And I'm not fussed about watching either of those.

I have no idea who is commentating on the Isner match- but she has a very Valley girl accent (I don't mean Welsh).

It's daft - why don't they just put a match on there now?!

I'd be more annoyed if it was a huge gap of wasted time on Ashe- I might stand a chance of seeing Rafa if they started playing early!
