Try winning a bit more consistently then!

Fizzywinegum · 09/07/2019 18:59

I saw that Zoe but didn’t hear the question.

Raahh · 09/07/2019 19:11

Inverdale and Fleming are fascinated by how many bananas Kubot has consumed.

It has been a lot!

Arantxa is playing invitational doubles with Anne Keovathong.

So she was not just an apparition. Grin

Can't watch at the moment to check if she still uses the clip.

I can now report, that she does not.

Thanks for that update Raahh Grin. It does always look a bit weird when they shove tennis balls up their pants!

Yes don’t want to be mean but that is not a good look for Marion Bartoli - I saw her on telly a few days ago and she did have the same dress on.

Raahh · 09/07/2019 20:07

It was very hot in France recently- maybe she wasn't sure what to pack?It is a bad dress.

Mahut won - and Roger Vasselin. obviously. Grin

Jo's press conference was very prickly, well, the bit I saw. Going to find the whole thing.

Zoeputthatdown · 09/07/2019 20:24

Had forgotten about Inverdale's insulting comment about Marion Bartoli, he rightly got a lot of flak about that.

Raahh · 09/07/2019 20:25

It's all on the Wimbledon app/page TheOnly.

I have also found it amusing that in 2 articles I've seen, she is once again 'Australian born' Jo Konta, rather than 'British'.

Yes Zoe John Inverdale was very out of order in his comments about Marion Bartoli when she won Wimbledon.

He was in the bad books with the BBC at one point but seems to have wormed his way back into favour (unfortunately!)

JaneJeffer · 09/07/2019 20:29

Why doesn't that surprise me Raahh

Raahh · 09/07/2019 20:30

Jane it's par for the course, definitely.

I'm surprised she's not Hungarian.

Evening all Tennis

I missed all of Konta's match but saw her press conference - wow she didn't hold back with her answers to that journalist Shock

But to be fair, they did ask some mean questions like: you made 33 unforced errors, and missed a smash on a big point, is that really good enough? Hmm

JaneJeffer · 09/07/2019 20:33

Some of those journos are horrible. They just want a reaction. Why can't they all be like Yorkshire Man?

PrivateIsles · 09/07/2019 20:34

I was excited for tomorrow anyway, but I'm looking forward to it even more, now that I've got a chance to see AC in the flesh!! Finally!

If he changes his shirt I'm taking a photo just for magi

Or do I mean for kazza? Grin

JaneJeffer · 09/07/2019 20:36

Have a lovely time Private

PrivateIsles · 09/07/2019 20:36

Jane I know. Like the one who asked Rafa whether it was right that he was on centre yesterday, while Ash Barty was on court 1? Rafa was like "well I've got 18 Slams" - tell em Rafa.

Also why is that even a question for Rafa? Hmm Shouldn't they ask the organisers??

PrivateIsles · 09/07/2019 20:38

Thanks Jane I'll be thinking of all of you!

Raahh · 09/07/2019 20:38

Yorkshire man is just too nice.

The journos are GFs though.

They were asking Rafa about the fact the Barty match was on court 2, and he was CC, yesterday. Like he did the scheduling. He shut it down very well- but I doubt they asked Fed the same questionHmm.

JaneJeffer · 09/07/2019 20:39

Grin Rafa's got great defence on here at least

Raahh · 09/07/2019 20:40

And have a great time Private.

Photos of AC however..don't get arrested.

Private can you fashion a novelty hat with cabbage whites on so we can spot you?
