Tennis thread: Wimbledon chat this way!

Happy Wimbledon Eve* everyone!

With thanks to magi*

If the matches continue like this tomorrow- so late- where will they put Murray?

I'm guessing Court 1- looking at those matches, I think they are expecting them to be short. (Serena is also on 1)

But Mladenovic /Kitova might be a tough one.

A human backboard

Lol at the human backboard

I can hardly bear to think about Rafa tomorrow. Years ago, I knew a Swansea supporter who loved the team so much he used to go outside his own house and watch their matches TV in through the window 😆
Suddenly I relate....

That would be me during Gaelic matches Cilantro

Cilantro I spend lot of his matches, perched on the stairs peering through the gap in the door .

Sad to see Stan go. I like him.
And now the defending Pinhead is on.
(Sorry I just really can’t bear him)

And Djok is getting a really easy ride of it out there.

Pfft. it's not fair.

As I typed that , Kudla won 2 games.

The crowd will never love Djok.

And he needs to get over it.

Cilantro that's so funny about watching from outside hopefully we won't need to do that tomorrow...

Actually Mac, there's about a week in age between Djok and Murray.

There is a fabulously bearded line judge on the Djok match.

Goran!

1 I’m personally enjoying the Viking look on Kudla

2 praying to the tennis gods for a miracle

3 I’ve decided I have RafAnxiety

4 the cats are fed at least

Cilantro RafAnxiety

that is definitely a thing.

I've just come across Lleyton Hewitt, partnering Thompson in the doubles.

How many come backs has Lleyton had now??

I was just watching lleyton as well!! Did he ever really retire?!

Private I'm wondering if he ever did- although I do seem to remember a match he played against Ferrer in Australia, that seemed to be his big 'farewell'.

Maybe he just retired from singles? Then got lumbered with trying to mentor Kyrgios- and thought blow this, I'm going to play myself. Show you how it's done. Telling that he is partnered with Jordan, and not Nick.

Looks like Djok has this in the bag.

Mac just described a rally as "classic Dennis Kudla"

Ah bless him

I'm becoming a fan of Dennis, he seems like a good laugh.

Finished ironing, preped, cooked and eaten dinner, so now catching up with your wonderful musings.

Private I loved the original Brideshead Revisited. Anthony Andrews and Aloyicious (spelling )
I'm humming the theme tune as I type

Loved it too kazza

And The Shroud is gone.
