Tennis thread: Wimbledon chat this way!

[PrivateIsles]

Happy Wimbledon Eve* everyone!

With thanks to magi*

Tomic gets £45 grand..... 😲 😲 😲 😲 That's a bloody disgrace.. They are right. He should be fined his fee...

Afternoon all.

Just caught up on the thread. Watched the tennis yesterday but couldn't keep up with the thread as dp and ds were also watching. I was just so shocked as neither likes tennis.

Watching the fed v Harris match. Harris is doing ok.

The court placements for this year seem to be all over the place.

Sorry I've just caught up and seen half my points have already been made/answered

I was wondering if "Todd" was another blow-in from the Doctors thread Raahh but then I realised it was Todd Woodbridge

Private in about 6 Wimbledons, I think Dom has lost in the first round 3 times. (Last year to Baghdatis?)

But I am very happy for Marcos that he is through this year.

Oh I hope Tomas gets through.

No, Mr Woodbridge was making excuses for Kyrgios. You'd think he would just be embarrassed by him.

Reboot maybe they've had an epiphany

Jane they didn't really have much choice. It was either watch it or go out and it wasn't a great day weatherwise.

Well done Tsonga!!

During Wimbledon (and Queen's /RG) -so for pretty much the last 4 weeks, it's been tennis on the tv. Fortunately no-one else really watches the tv - they spend more time on laptops and phones . But this suits me at this time of year.

Wish my lot would see the light Reboot

I’m trying to fit in as much tennis watching as possible before my lot come home and start moaning - not sure if they’ll get any tea

Not long for Rafa now (excited)

I will miss most of tomorrow afternoon, due to Sports Day. .

So Konta is through. Don't hang around, we want to see Rafa.

Murguruza is not doing so well , over on Court 3.

Yes! J-W has just won.

So has Konta.

Well Raahh Mr Woodbridge has just gone down in my estimation. I used to think he was a decent bloke.

It is annoying that Rafa is on now, since no doubt my family will expect me to feed them.

It's not on, really. .

kazza he did make some comments about how he didn't like the show boating and daft shots, when just straightforward tennis would do the job.

But in the main, he was very Pro-Nick.

Am pleased for Jo- Willy, especially against an idiot like Tomic.

Tim dressed in his best 'visiting the bank manager' suit.

Give them some crisps, a few biscuits, a chunk of bread and cheese and an apple and tell them it's a picnic Raahh

I see Diminutive Diego has started his match against Ebden. Now, he's a lovely Australian.

kazza it's tempting.

Tomorrow, I will bung something in the slow cooker. and probably forget about it

grrr.

Don't mention the list.

I knew Tim would get the Rosol connection into the conversation.

And Rafa checked the ceiling!!

No bumped heads today.

Is this a new thing, having cameras in the tunnel on the players as they wait to come out? I know they've done it for the finals before but not the earlier rounds

I think they were just waiting to see if he hit his head kazza.

And gave them a chance to comment on his pre-match preparations.

I loved his answer to the question of how he feels about meeting Kyrgios. He has to beat Sugita first- which is right. He respects the player he playing today- not the future.

I think he should have learned his lesson by now Raahh
