TENNIS thread - We wave goodbye to SW19, and look forward to the hardcourt season.

[Raahh]

Before we run out .

By be Wimbledon

kazza like the cabbage white in the poem he will never now, it is too late

I noticed Boris and his kiss to the camera - loved it

Ah the cabbage white! There was a butterfly in our kitchen today but it was a red one (Red admiral? AC would know)

I love F1 and I love Lewis. It must be hard and weird to be the only representative of your race in such a massive sport (and he's treated that way). I have a lot of time for him.

Sport in general is indeed a weird concept.

I too loved playing netball Raahh. If my body was capable of running about I'd find a team here.

Grouchy , I'm pleased you like Lewis! Your a rare breed as most people don't.

What a void in my life. I'm reading the thread to feel normal again.

80s I don't understand why people don't like him. He's a brilliant driver/racer, he's articulate, handsome, really lovely with children, and best of all he races hard but fair. No cheating. Maybe they prefer a bad guy.

To brighten up your day

Bed head to go with his dad bod

Ssh don't tell him why.

That's brilliant , Jane

that sniffer dog knew what he was doing.

Love the picture of Stan btw - of course!

Hee hee that grass certainly did have extra flavour

Love the Stan picture - what sort of session does he mean? Could be anything knowing Stan

Watched TAW - Clare’s jacket

Haha about the grass!

That's a good picture of Stan.

I want to go on the sesh with Stan

I've have just seen a scary picture on FB posted by the ATP of a group of players mocked up to look old.

I can't get a link to work- but it was quite unnerving. . Took me a while to recognise Thiem .

(Couple of things stand out about the picture- but it fits the ATP's pro Fed agenda- the picture of Fed doesn't look that different, and there's no Rafa.).

I saw those Raahh. I was quite relieved they left Rafa out of it!

Jane you are probably right. Can't imagine what they might have done to him!

Oh no they've done him now! Aargh!

He came off lightly compared to Cilic!

And Kevin!

I was just coming over here to post that!!

My eyes!!

It should have been prefixed with: "Don't have nightmares" shudder.
