Tennis - It's ugly trophy time

[JaneJeffer]

Sorry!

RBA has got Medvedev a bit rattled in this 3rd set.

Hopefully, if Djok doesn't get Struffed, RBA can continue as he has so far.

Poor Delpo - hope he gets his knee sorted out

Just got in to see that RBA is serving for the match

I’ve been Eating Out to Help Out (helping me to get even fatter )

Zip?? That’s even worse than breaker!

Zip is definitely up there with breaker!

RBA has beaten Medvedev. I don't mind, I like RBA, but can he beat Djok??

Time violation on match point? I hate stuff like that, even if it is 'in the rules'.

Boo for time violation on match point - RBA didn’t tap the umpire’s foot (I suppose that’s the equivalent of not shaking his hand!)

Come on Struff!

I don't blame him, FIzzy- it was just petty, imo. Like the violation for Nadal at a similar point at the US Open.

I don't really want to watch Djok.

But...Come on Struff!

I agree Raahh it was petty and I still remember Rafa’s time violation at the US Open final!

I am pissed off about Djok and his 'neck problem'. I never believed it was really an issue. It's all mind games.

Fizzy I cannot get my head around it being nearly a year since that US Open final. It feels like yesterday.

Grrr. Shut up Tim and Greg. I think Rafa's decision to not defend his title, and stay in Europe was a sensible one. And he's not the only player to decide to do that. They made it sound like he was wimping out.

Do not defend the Adria stuff.

Well that was a bit of a turn-up - well played RBA.

I saw Delpo posted recently he had travelled to Switzerland to see the knee doc - he had to quarantine when he got there as well - and now another op. Seems very determined, to be going through all this . Really hope he can play again/be pain free.

Private it is just so sad. I would love to see him back- but I hope he is making sure he is fit- for life- and not just a couple of extra years playing.

Ugh. Why are the commentators all over Novak, all of a sudden? They wouldn' t be so effusive if Fed was in the draw.

It's Robbie Koenig commentating, isn't it? Has he been paid to fawn over Djok, because it is really getting on my nerves .

There does seem to be a lot of fawning (good word Raahh ).

I find it hard to believe Djok has fans.

I mean, I know he has. But - he's tree hugging, anti-vax, Novak!

So much for Djok's neck problems, eh?

Ok, much as I dislike Djok, if I wanted to watch the Murray doubles, I would be doing.

Struff comeback is on!!
Well - sort of - he was 5-zip down and he just won a game.

Looks as if the comeback was pretty short lived Spidey

yes - I think he only won one more point!

The Azarenka match is supposed to be good atm, but I might have to have an early night. Feel so tired this week from staying up watching tennis, not that I'm complaining or anything!

Ooh I'm casting (get me!) Raonic match from Prime!!

Love to see some more tennis again!

No tennis today in support of Black Lives Matters as a protest against what’s happening in Wisconsin.

Naomi Osaka was going to pull out of her match but it looks as if other players and the tournament are supporting her and no matches going ahead today. Apparently Milos was quite important in getting the men to support this action.

I read about Osaka, then that the tournament as a whole was stopped today.

Just checking up on the results over night.
