I’m now watching boxing - it’s from Eddie Hearn's back garden which is a bit different from ours Hmm

JaneJeffer · 22/08/2020 19:30

Snap Fizzy. Boxing on TV while I am being deafened by phones and tablets at the same time. Aargh!

Raahh · 22/08/2020 19:31

Tiafoe is also wearing the ink splat shorts.

The Darkness playing over Kevin and Kyle.

Not sure 'touching you, God, you're touchung me' is currently allowed Grin.

*touching.

Kyle has gone AWOL.

I think he is looking for better shorts.

That seems like a strange DJ choice Raahh

Is anyone watching Murray? I don’t know if I can be bothered to fire up the laptop to watch slo mo tennis. Just wondered how he was looking.

Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:09

I'm kind of flicking between the two- mainly because I'm a big Kevin fan, and he's had a lot of bad luck over the last year or so. I really would like to see him do well. Not fussed about Kyle. Or Murray, if I'm being totally honest.

They have just been discussing Kyle's kit. The fact it is part of the Agassi collection and is very 'retro'. They fell short of saying 'looks bloody awful'.

Kevin seems to be really struggling with cramp, though. He's had one treatment already.

OP posts:
Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:16

oh dear. Sad this is not looking good.

Come on Kev!!

OP posts:
PrivateSpidey · 22/08/2020 20:23

I like Kev. But I'm watching Andy atm. He looks good I reckon and it's quite close so far - 4-5 on serve.

I love the Agassi collection btw! Grin Tiafoe is wearing it too and it looks great!!

Meanwhile Petch has been talking about the return stats of Richard Krajicek Confused not exactly sure why Grin

kazzaD66 · 22/08/2020 20:25

My electricity tripped just as I posted my last post 2 hours ago. Was going to watch Benoit but clearly couldn't. But what happened to him?

Now watching Murray. Tim and Petch commentating, I think. It must be Tim because he answered a question with.... "yeah, very much so...."! Grin

Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:28

I think the kit looks better on Tiafoe, than Kyle- Private. But it is usually the way Grin.

We've got retro tunes going on now.
'Hooked on a feeling'. Grin

kazza Benoit was injured I think- not sure in what way- the first 2 games they played took ages, then he lost the set easily. Then retired.

Maybe the weight of his beard was just too great.

OP posts:
kazzaD66 · 22/08/2020 20:31

Petch doesn't know when to shut up at times Private

The Nike kit does look better on Tiafoe than on Kyle but then, I can't think of any kit (apart from complete whites) that suit Kyle. Poor Kyle Grin

Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:33

kazza yy, Wimbledon whites are really the only thing for Kyle.

Or changing sponsor. Possibly not Uni-qlo though. Their kits are worse Grin

OP posts:
Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:33

Can we see Kyle in UPS delivery man brown?

OP posts:
kazzaD66 · 22/08/2020 20:48

I'd rather not Raahh Grin

Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:49

And Kevin is through.

OP posts:
Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:49

kazza Grin

OP posts:
kazzaD66 · 22/08/2020 20:51

So Kyle has also lost.

The familiar story of it may all be on Murray's shoulders Hmm

Not sure I'm too positive about Dan's chances against Rublev tomorrow, but you never know....

Raahh · 22/08/2020 20:52

So I 've switched to the Murray match.

I take it back- Tiafoe has changed his shirt. Shirt option two is worse than the first one!!

OP posts:
kazzaD66 · 22/08/2020 21:00

So, can other players /personnel watch matches? Courtside for Murray /Tiafoe is Kim Cjlisters, Dani Vallverdu and Ross Hutchins (not together!). Kim pulled out, Dani coaches Stan, who isn't playing and Ross is Andy's best friend but.......? Confused

Raahh · 22/08/2020 21:10

I am really not sure what is going on with the court side stuff. We will soon find out how far some players are prepared to push their luck, when Djok has half his family and the clients of a night club as his 'plus one'.

OP posts:
Raahh · 22/08/2020 21:13

Talking of coaches, I am excited by the Zverev/Ferrer partnership- but sadly (though not surprisingly) he is not going to be with Sascha in the US.
I just hope David has been giving Sascha some tips on his serve- you know, getting the ball over the actual net!
