Tennis thread: it's almost the off-season, but the tennis chat continues!

[PrivateSpidey]

It's not quite time to don your woolly jumpers or stoke up your log fires for the winter - still some tennis to be played this season!

An exciting, mathematically challenging WTFs continues, new Davis Cup soon, etc...

Wow.

Vamos Rafa!

Wow I didn't think Deliciano was the same age as Roger! Looking good Feli.

Vamos! I've finally got a bit of peace and quiet to watch this. Been a hectic weekend.

Feli certainly is.

Xisca is enjoying this

Has she been reminded recently how many weeks she has been married ?

I am very impressed with Rafa's serve- he was like this at the beginning of the year (and it's already near the end)- when they kept going on about 'free points' in Melbourne.

When you've got players hitting 20+ aces a match, Rafa's 'free points' were nothing.

Vamos!

The fact they are wearing the same colours, has just started to confuse me. ( I 'm tired).

Although Shaggy has a hat., and Rafa a head band.

At least Rafa doesn't look like a chef in an Asian fusion restaurant- like Roger, though.

Wow!

That was an excellent shot from Shaggy. Rafa-esque.

Amazing stuff!

Shaggy is certainly not giving in.

Aww, Rafa!

I think he has been involved in 5 (?) winning DC sides.

That has to be impressive.

Yay!

Poor Shaggy, Rafa certainly brought out the best in him.

VAMOS

Well done Spain.

Shaggy can be really proud of how he has done. He has been one of the main players.

At the beginning of the week, when I saw the draw, I didn't think they would get this far- they had a tough group on paper.

Yay didn’t see it but E Viva Espana!

Rafa’s had a really good year - hopefully the commentators are finally catching up.

I'd love to know what that man shouted out a few minutes back. Everyone was shaking their heads in wry amusement

I see Shakira!

He has played, and won, 8 matches this week. Pretty impressive.

I''m thrilled for them all -and it must be something else for RBA.

Aww that family hug.

Boo to shakira - hope she’s not doing the trophy
