TENNIS THREAD -Sliding in the clay, on the journey to Roland Garros !

[Raahh]

Just had a slight panic when I saw the thread was nearly full.

I am now off to check the schedule properly- to see what I'll miss today

Foggy is injured, has problems with his eyes, is covered in bandages etc. Not going well!

Oh dear no it’s not going well for Foggy

Private I am just checking the scores- was wondering what must be going although Coric is good.

Foggy was saying in an article I read, he needs surgery on his elbow(?) I think , and was hoping to make it until after RG to take time out to do it.

PS the split screen worked for me as well - had no idea! Thanks mama

Poor Fognini. I like Coric as well though so I don't mind who wins.

I'm watching the score go back and forth!

And well done our Fognini!

That was nuts!! Foggy was v emotional at the end.

Wonder how he'll be tomorrow for the match with Rafa?

Our Fabio’s gone and won it - should be an interesting match against Rafa tomorrow

I wonder how his elbow will be - I didn't know that he needed surgery Raahh. Rafa had a long match as well though. Should be an interesting one!

Fabio just called Rafa "the king of clay" in his interview - cute

Private I'm not sure how bad the elbow is- he's scheduled to play every week up to RG too, so not shying away from playing. Which could be risky, unless the elbow is just a niggle that needs a quick fix.

Trouble with Foggy is he is very unpredictable- anyone could turn up tomorrow.

Well, he's not wrong, is he?

he's certainly not!

I'm sorry to say that Greg predicted a Rafa win - although he's got to get at least one right, surely?!

I'm ignoring Greg's predictions

Wow, when I looked in on the scores earlier, Medvedev seemed to be well ahead.

Not the case now!

And Lajovic has won. Wonder what happened to Medvedev (can't watch at the moment).

Who is this Lajovic? I've never heard of him before this tournament.

I’ve not heard of him either magi - surprised that he’s won.

Might try and watch a bit of the Rafa match - foggy looked like the walking wounded at the end of his match yesterday and Rafa was a bit all over the place.

Lajovic is Serbian, iirc and I only remember him because his first name is Dusan, which I found amusing one. I think Novak's dad is called Dusan. (Probably made that up) he's been around a while.

Yes, I've made up the Novak fact , but there's another Dusan somewhere...

I seem to remember that we used to call Lajovic 'Susan' on an earlier thread - or maybe that wasn't on here & it was one of my DC being mean.

We're stuck on the M6 at the moment (NB I'm not driving) so I will have to rely on you lovely lot to update me on Rafa v Fabio!

I wish the Amazon Prime menu was easier to follow, it's a pain having to scroll around to find what you want - or maybe I'm missing something

Glad everyone is enjoying the split screens
I've just got in, was hoping Rafa would be out ahead by now.....
Horrible day to be stuck on the motorway private I hope you're on your way soon.
