Tennis Thread: US Open final weekend, and all your autumnal tennis chat this way!

[PrivateSpidey]

Welcome one and all!

Have a great holiday magi - enjoy!

Phew - come on Rafa

Medvedev does always look like that - as if he’s got the troubles of the world on his shoulders

Even though he is a bit of a bad boy he doesn’t annoy me in the same way that Kyrgios does - maybe because he does actually win matches.

In the (near enough) words of Phil Collins Raahh You Can’t Hurry Rafa.

Yes Raahh I've noticed the time lapse throughout the fortnight. Sometimes Prime is more than a minute behind. I suppose it's because it's coming over the internet

Have a great holiday magi
Where are you off to?

Have a great time on your hols magi!!

Shaggy that is very apt!

kazza I try to stick to the tv version- but when I'm getting nervous, I check the US open website. .

Have a great time magi!

Enjoy your hols magi

Hmm I think Medvedev would have had to win that first set really, to have a chance. Unless he starts blasting everything now, like he did against Djok in - wherever it was. Cincinnati?

Hope you have a lovely holiday magi

Have a great holiday magi. Where are you off to?

I'm going where the weather suits my clothes!!

(Turkey and I can't wait!)

Go! Rafa!

Was that Keri Russell?! That's about the second time in my life I've been interested in celebs in the crowd - I love The Americans so much.

magi that's a very mysterious response!

Oh I just saw you said Turkey! I thought were trying to be a cryptic
Have a lovely time.

Be sure to buy lots of Turkish towels magi!!

Commentators over here are saying Rafa looks really exhausted, sweating a lot etc.

Does anyone look at Carlos Moyà and think he could have been a line dancer in a different life? Picturing him in a cowboy hat taking one step forward and two steps back ...

Spidey this is where we need Andrew Castle to tell us who the famous people in the crowd are (he does have his uses!) I thought they kept showing Uma Thurman in the first set but wasn’t really sure.

Tim and Martina are rubbish at celeb spotting!

Rafa sweats tonnes in every match though doesn’t he? He drips everywhere.

It is Uma Thurman!

Yes it was Uma Thurman!

Rafa does sweat a lot Hearts - I think he had cramp in his last match - that’s why he needs the A/C hose

Tim is being really mean to Petch!

Hearts Rafa always sweats. He probably has the most stamina of any player on the tour, though.

He usually looks, at the end of a match, like he could do a few more sets. .

If they think Rafa looks knackered , what are they saying about Medvedev??!

Carlos Moya has always been very easy on the eye

Yes, it was Keri Russell. I love Matthew Rhys.

They're ganging up on Petch and his lack of tennis prowess

I'm sure Tim would have been able to make out Meghan Markle last night.

Maybe.
