Wimbledon Chat- Moving on to the second week- No Breakers!

[Raahh]

🎾
Place marking too!

A shame about Schwartzman, he did have the match in his diminutive pocket for a bit.

But well done to Berrettini (who is very easy on the eye)

I like that emoji, 80s it changes from a ball to a racquet when I refresh the page. (I did it a couple of times, because I am easily pleased).

Checking in - still watching Rog be relatively untroubled by anything on Centre Court.

Well held, Pouille.

Not as untroubled as Rafa was by poor old Jo Willy though!

Checking in. Come on Roger

thank you Raahh - he is rather trouble free , though I'm not sure I have heard him shout to himself much before now

Now I have finished with Diego, I really must take the dog for a quick walk.

At least I have been able to schedule most of today around Rafa. Which is nice . Will be odd tomorrow with no tennis.

and done , wrapped up

I love Rog. Good game lads.

Have you noticed the difference between his racquet arm and his left arm?

Glad Roger's through but good match.

His left forearm is twiggy and right forearm is huge

BBC correspondent filed her report before the end of the match:
Then eight-time Wimbledon champion Federer beat Lucas Pouille 7-5 6-2 X-X.
Not quite, er, cricket!

Joining the party rather late here. Lived tge other thread.

His left forearm is twiggy and right forearm is huge

I've seen old footage of Rod Laver where his left arm was so much bigger than his right. Most of them now look more or less the same.

Found you !!
I am still on red button on a bit of delay .
Andy and serena next .

Ohhhh judy has just used popcorn on her sm thing

Flippin' Autocorrect! Loved the other thread.

well, my dog really didn't want to go put. it's not even that warm- and it was raining when we went out this morning. He's a fussy dog.

It's hard to score check whilst walking the dog. One of these days i will drop my phone.

And yay! Sousa is 2-1 up.

Each of the 3 sets was exactly 48 minutes.

That's interesting.

I've been doing a round up of results, and (much as I am really thrilled that Gauff is coming into her own this tournament)- I see that she lost the mixed doubles, partnered with Jay Clarke. The cruel way Clarke ditched Dart as as partner, I'm secretly a bit pleased they lost (Gauff will have many opportunities- Clarke , maybe not so many).

Oh, Evans is playing up to type.

@StarbucksSmarterSister, it’s true. Most of the others are relatively well balanced. RF seems to ignore his left arm!

Indeed. And if he got through he’d be against Rafa and that wouldn’t be a pretty sight.

Adelie I know. I am not an Evans fan. (sorry Kazza, wherever you are, but you know that anyway ) . I can't stand him.

And the commentary will again be annoying.
