TENNIS THREAD - Arrivederci Roma! Onwards to Roland Garros.

[Raahh]

VAMOS Rafa!

I nearly missed the end of that!

what’s the Djere sob story Jane? I’ve done one thing on my list (apart from watching tennis!) it’s quite hot and humid out there so I think that’s enough for today!

Oh I don’t know which match to watch - I did quite miss Jim and Fabrice commentating last night (think I must be going mad). Not sure who’s commentating in the Ruud match but he’s got a very boring voice

Both his parents died of cancer Fizzy

Oh that’s sad Jane

Oh- it's raining.

Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed.

Jane

Can’t believe that Casper and ADF are still playing - I know there’s been a rain break but it’s been going for hours!

Four hours!

And Sascha is through. Yay!

Oh dear Foggy pinched his racquet in frustration and then needed medical attention because his hand was bleeding

Keith has managed to avoid another five set match - it was a walkover (not sure what happened to his opponent)

Marion running out of questions

Punched his racquet not pinched!

That's the second self-inflicted racquet injury this week.

Ooh ADF had match point and now Ruud has a break point - it’s very tense!

Why don't they leave the exciting finish on?

Groundstrokes obviously!

I loved Arnaud Clément.

ADF has finally gone through (although he did do an underarm serve which I don’t approve of!)

Opelka is really taking the muppet look too far.

I went to sleep when the rain came, and missed all the excitement of of the Ruud match. I'm sad he lost, though I did expect it to be a tough one.
I wish I knew what was making me so tired! I feel bleurgh.

So, I am just catching up- I see Medvedev is doing ok.

Opelka in pink, looks like a massive ice cream.

I wish I could find a picture of which muppet he reminds me of , Jane it is in my head- and I can't find it!

It's that blue guy on the left?

It does look like him - but his beard makes him look like one of the big monster-y types.

Oh, I loved the Muppets. I was the ringtone on my phone. Back in 2001 when novelty ringtones were 'thing'.

They were brilliant as was Sesame Street back when it was full of sarcasm. It taught me well.
