TENNIS THREAD - Arrivederci Roma! Onwards to Roland Garros.

[Raahh]

VAMOS Rafa!

I nearly missed the end of that!

And I don't want to watch Heather Watson, to be honest.

I want to see the end of the Sinner match

Herbert is playing great!
Pleased for Iga

Wimbledon would be full no matter who is playing unless maybe it's lunchtime. I don't understand the lackadaisical attitude to having a ticket in other countries. I would want to get my monies worth!

And the Ruud/Paire match is on.

So no- I do not want to watch Heather losing. .

Jane exactly. I don't understand it. I'd be welded to my seat- and there would be no moving me, until they carried me out at 11pm .

At the US Open, I get the impression the tennis comes second to the food .

I don’t want to watch heather Watson either - put one of the good matches on!

I know what you mean Jane - Wimbledon is always packed to the rafters (when it’s allowed to be!) - I would definitely want to get my moneys worth (especially being a Yorkshire person!)

It would appear it's 'let's show the Brits' day. until the Fed match

If they show Konta, I'm taking the dog out.

Exactly- PHH is about to create quite an upset.

And we're watching Heather.

No disrespect to Heather. But they aren't cheering on her match, are they?

(I mean , Sinner could still win, but it's got to be more interesting than this ).

Eurosport also showing Heather. Why have it on both?! Norrie/Fratangelo on the other side at least.

I've started the ironing in protest.

Looks like the Sinner match will go to a decider now.

And Paire took the first set against Ruud.

Meanwhile, the Medvedev/Bublik match has started.

and we're stuck watching the Brits

Although I really like Sinner, I feel a bit sorry for PHH, because he had a really good chance in his match. Looks like it will go Sinner's way now.

I want to see Benoit's beard.

And Sinner has won.

I thought Daniil would struggle against Bublik too

Seems I was wrong.

Tiafoe looked good in his sleeveless top. Shame he lost. .

Ruud is running away with the 3rd set.

I went to the garden centre in protest

It says that they’re showing Konta but Norrie seems to be on - at least he usually manages to win a few matches!

Maybe Daniil is really good on clay and has just been having us on all this time

Oh I missed sleeveless Big Foe who I'm definitely not perving over, oh no.

Jane yes, we could have done with Big Foe sticking around. For the tennis, obviously .

I was beginning to wonder if Danill has just been down playing his clay prowess .

I hope they aren't going to show Konta.
I can't see it, though, really. If the Medvedev match ends soon, Fed should be next on Chatrier. Surely showing a Brit wouldn't take priority over Roger.

(I don't really want to watch Roger either, to be honest).

Eurosport is now down to just the one channel, because they are showing cycling.

Things getting rowdy on the Ruud/Paire match.

Yet here we are, watching .

Casper is through.

It sounded good anyway .

Can’t believe we’re watching the start of what is likely to be a mediocre match when you could hear the noise from the Paire/ruud match

We’re only watching a bit of Konta until Rog comes on though

Looks like Rafa is on at about 3pm tomorrow with Djok on the night session - I’m sure he’ll enjoy doing his silly celebration to no fans!

This tennis coverage is making me grumpy!
