Tennis thread: Wimbledon chat this way!

[PrivateIsles]

Happy Wimbledon Eve* everyone!

With thanks to magi*

Thank goodness for that.

And all it means is it's 2 sets all.

Blimey.

As a side note, I do like his Stella McCartney designed kit. Very classy. And apparently made of recycled old clothes and plastic waste.

Sascha is 5-4 down in the fourth

Wow - well done Stef.

I do like the Stella McCartney stuff. I won't comment on the woman herself.

oh dear. Sascha is not having the best year, for a number of reasons.

Jane

Stef can't seem to keep on his feet.

Hope she's not on this thread but just in case - cheer up love.

Fabbiano is making me laugh.

Hold on a minute- why is no-one commenting on how diminutive Fabbiano is?

He's all of an inch taller than Diego.

Maybe he exceeds the height requirement to qualify as diminutive?

And Sascha is gone

Jane that inch must make all the difference.

Poor Sascha.

An inch can make a lot of difference

Oh no. Fabbiano has broken.

This could be a big day for upsets.

I have to go out in 15 minutes. What rubbish timing!

Just got in to find tsistpas a break down in the 5th and sascha gone...what's going on?! Unfortunately I see Novak won easy

And Naomi lost!

It's not going very well, so far.

Stefanos needs to re-group - very fast!

He does, Fabbiano looks energised

Another double fault??

Oh not again.

And Stef is out.

Damn.

He's gone poor Stephanos - he looks upset.

Stef will end up with his own list.

As will Sascha. He is often shaky in the big events.

Well. Big Tsitsipas fan, got in 10 mins ago and that's my lot .

So, 2 out of 3 of my 'ones I want to win' (male) have lost today- ok, so Gulbis was a long shot. But I had high hopes for Stef.

And although I didn't think Osaka was ready to win at Wimbledon, I expected her to do better.
