TENNIS THREAD- Australian Open continues- we're ready for the popcorn matches!

[Raahh]

I am not going to get chance to watch much more of this so this was a bit of a quick one...

Fizzy

I don't mind the kids supporting him because they mistakenly think he's cool but where are their parents?

Jane

Ah come on Karen!!

I don't think I can deal with another tie break- not if it goes like yesterday's! That was a heartbreaker. Poor John .

I was just thinking that Raahh - I’m still not keen on final set tiebreaks but not sure what the alternative should be - they do seem a bit unfair.

Oh dear

Oh crumbs.

But....

remember what happened to John.

All is not lost yet.

I can't cope with this again!

nooooo

So close, again.

He really tried, good effort from Karen.

Shite. I'm so stressed after that.

Can't listen to the interview.

Well, Monday will be a nightmare. I'm not sure I want to watch. Maybe Dick had worn himself out.

Just wait until Monday Jane

Jane I know. I switched to just watching the scores at the end.

I didn't expect Karen to make it a 5 setter, the way he started it out, but when he did - I got a glimmer of hope. Such a shame. He was really starting to play well, just Kyrgios has his serve to fall back on- and in a tie break situation, that is all you need.

Just a thought- if Karen had got through to Monday- do you think Frew woud have become his biggest fan ?.

The crowd annoyed me more than Dick did! And breathe...

No doubt Raahh

I actually have a splitting headache.

I am still not sure I will be able to watch, I will get cross- the dog probably won't let me anyway (he only let me watch today because dh was here to take him out ).

Oh no, Jane!

That's 2 stressful days- featuring players I'm actually not that fussed about! (apart from the outcome)

So heaven help me Monday!

it's not easy being a tennis fan girl

My dog was going nuts because I put my coat on to keep warm and he thought we were going out.

Kyrgios usually has that effect on me as well Jane.

I know what you mean Raahh - I don’t know what I’ll do if their match goes to a fifth set tiebreak. I wonder what time it will be on - I’m assuming it will be an evening match?
