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

[PrivateSpidey]

Welcome one and all!

I’m going to watch in bed now so will probably be asleep in 5 minutes!

Night all

If this goes to a fifth set I think I will have to leave the result as a surprise for the morning.

Sorry Rafa, but I'm working tomorrow! And my blumming ancient iPad won't support prime streaming so I can't take it up to bed.

Eek set point! Wow, what a shot. That's me out. goodnight all.

Is anyone still watching? Rafa needs to pull it together ... quickly!

Score checking instead of sleeping! Vamos!

Match point!!!

Damnit

I guess I meant Championship point though.

I won't be able to sleep until Rafa wins!

Deuce AGAIN.

Feck it

Jane I know what you mean! So tense!

Fuck

Vamos Rafa

Come on now!

Yass!

Sweet dreams

Yesssssssssss!!!!!!

Goodnight!

Oh my, what a match!!!!

That was amazing. Enormous congratulations to Rafa, commiserations to Medvedev, who is some player & can only get better. A real future star, I reckon.

And now I'm off to bed, as I've got to go to work tomorrow. Meh.

Oh, and hi to all you lovely tennis thread lot - sorry I only pop in occasionally

Goodnight DramaAlpaca!

They are taking their sweet time pulling together the presentation.

I can't believe I missed the rest of that, it sounded absolutely epic! Cursing the time difference.

Medvedev was a bit heroic coming back to make that into an exciting contest. Looking forward to watching the rest on catch up. Well done Rafa, nice way to set up his wedding celebrations!

I fell asleep, before the end of the second set I think. Then woke up in time to see the presentation. It was a bit of a shock to see the scoreline, and I'm glad I wasn't watching it- I'd have been pacing the garden in the middle of the night, and waking up the dog to hide behind him.

I'm glad it was a good match- Medvedev deserved a decent shot at it, and I suppose it proves he does have stamina (even if he does look like an extra from the walking dead at times).

I might catch up on what I missed, later. It's easier when you know the outcome!

I fell asleep at 2 sets all - I daren’t check the scores this morning - I was convinced that Rafa had lost.

Glad it was a good match - well done to both of them.

I’ll try and catch up on the last set and the presentation later.

I’m tired

Heck! That was close.

Just read the BBC match reports.
So glad I went to bed after the third set. I definitely wouldn't have wanted to stay up another two hours for the rest of it.
I'm a lightweight, I know

I wish I had been alive enough to watch that.

Looks like that's my Monday evening sorted! Just hope amazon prime haven't taken the replay away by 7.30. I don't think I could cope with the whole match but really want to watch the last set.

Well done to the insomniacs who managed to stay up to watch it live, I think if I had my adrenalin levels would have had me climbing the walls.

Well done Rafa, enjoy the wedding!
