Tennis: Welcome to Miami

[JaneJeffer]

Noticed the last thread is almost full

Well, this is getting interesting.

Come on Danny Boy!!

I'm trying to watch Emmerdale and tennis at the same time!

Yay!!

Well, that's a turn up!
Well done Dan!

All hail king Dan

Yay well done King Dan - brilliant!

King Dan indeed!

Move over Rafa...

Yeah bet Rafa is quaking in his shoes

Did Annabel just say that Novak has won the French Open twice??!

Fizzy

Of course, I won't be grinning if Grigor beats Rafa now!

I know Raahh we don’t want too many upsets in one day!

There was only ever one upset I was interested in- and we've had that, so from now on, I want easy wins for Rafa, and a 12th title..

I have to go out.
I had better not come back in 45 minutes to a scary scoreline.

Oh I didn't realise Rafa was playing now.

Well, I'm watching on my phone (will probably run out of data)- good start so far for Rafa then.

Anyone else getting a craving for Opal Fruits during this match?

Opal fruits

Well, I'm back- and I suppose the scoreline is only scary if you are Grigor .

I can't remember the last time I saw Grigor win a match.

No, Grigor has not had a good run of it. He goes through phases- he has really good patches- and then really bad ones.

There doesn't seem to be a consistent happy medium with him.

He did beat Roger in the 2019 US open- I think that was his last decent win.

Actually that's not fair- he beat Thiem in Australia- though I'm not sure Domi was at his best in Melbourne.

And Rafa wrapped that up very quickly indeed.

Vamos!

He played a bad match

Obviously, I'm very happy with Dan's win. Just saw the final point on my phone before video calling my dad in hospital, so now going to catch up on the post match interview and the rest of the results. Dan should move back into the top 30 again. Brilliant performance although I'm sure Djok must be injured

Just watching the Rafa replay - looks as if Tim and Annabel got the pink/lilac memo as well - must be catching!

Yes I’m sure we’ll hear something about Djoks injury kazza

Apparently he kept Dan waiting to go on court which fired him up!

Anyway I’ll enjoy Monte Carlo even more now that I won’t have to watch Djok

Fizzy 'absence of Djok' always improves a tournament .

I almost don't mind who wins it now.

Almost
