A bit late, I know, but that photo is hardly recognisable as Medvedev. It's the hair. It's not hanging limply down and plastered to his head Grin
He looks less Shaggy-like Grin

Raahh · 13/09/2019 14:57

I discovered , the other day , whilst googling, that Shaggy's real first name is Norville.

So now you know. Should it ever come up in conversation. Or on Pointless.

PrivateSpidey · 13/09/2019 15:01
Grin Yes and Scooby's full name is Scoobert.

I don't know which is worse Grin and what the hell were you googling?

JaneJeffer · 13/09/2019 15:02

Scoobert Grin

Grin Yes Raahh so you just so happened to come across this info? Grin

I was trying to remember the name of the van thing they drive around in. which is the Mystery Machine, it turns out.

I can't remember why I wanted to know Grin

Scoobert Grin

Fizzywinegum · 13/09/2019 16:34

At first I thought you meant Shapovalov’s real first name was Norville Grin

All those years of watching ScoobyDoo and I was oblivious!

Not entirely convinced by Medvedev’s lime green polo neck!

I don’t wear polo necks anymore because someone once said I looked like Velma (continuing the Scooby Doo theme) - I think it’s the glasses Grin

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 13/09/2019 16:53

Aahhh Velma was my favourite!

Morning all Tennis

Hope everyone is surviving without much tennis atm Sad.

I've just been looking at the pictures from Lucas Pouille's wedding - possibly the most stylish wedding ever. Tsonga, Goffin and PHH were there rocking blue suits and white trainers and looking amazing.

There's also a video of a dance off between Goffin, Monfils and Pouille - obviously Goffin was the clear winner, we already know he has the moves Grin.

The Laver Cup starts soon doesn't it - is Rafa definitely playing?....

kazzaD66 · 16/09/2019 14:21

Thanks for the heads up private
Just found some of the videos posted.
Were they wearing trainers in case they fancied a quick game mid-ceremony?! It looked as if there could be a court lurking in the grounds Grin

Don't think I could be a bridesmaid. I'm probably about 3 1/2 stones too heavy ConfusedBlush
The new Mrs Pouille is certainly very slim.

As for the "dancing" HmmGrin

Raahh · 16/09/2019 14:33

Those videos are very funny Grin

Lots of weddings at the moment.

Not seen anything about whether or not Rafa is still playing at the Laver Cup. And it's St Petersburg this week- which Stan was supposed to be playing in (that was his reason for saying he couldn't play in the Laver cup), but he's withdrawn.

JaneJeffer · 16/09/2019 15:33

That's a real Bear Tomas is pointing at. Stan needs to up his game.

i enjoyed Grigor's latest workout

Raahh · 16/09/2019 15:42

Maybe he's on a Bear hunt with Stan- he's pulled out of St Petersburg as well!

Very suspicious. Grin

PrivateSpidey · 16/09/2019 18:12
Grin I saw that picture of Tomas on IG and thought he was just gesturing towards that rock or whatever it is - didn't notice the obvious Bear Grin

The Pouille wedding looks fab but yes kazza the BM dresses are very slinky. Maybe 20 years ago I could have pulled it off (probably not tbh) but now I'll just have to admire from afar!!

That's interesting about Stan dropping out of these tournaments - do you think he's going to replace Rafa in Geneva? I don't get the Laver Cup. It has ranking points but it's also by invitation? Is that right? Confused

Anyway. Off to find Grigor's workout post - research purposes only of course.
