Tennis: The sun is out, the sky is blue, the grass is green and Wimbledon is calling

[kazzaD66]

And welcome to Queen's

Don't think it was jane
But then, Murray had been moved to BBC1, so who knows

Aww, Des and Gerry. Might be difficult to bring back Gerry .

I had a goldfish called Des Lynam.

DS2 was watching a bit of the match with me and went off saying this guy is boring all he does is serve

Well, Peter seems to think it's ok if all he does is 'coast' and bang down a bunch of aces.

I don't know why they are still carrying on like he is the saviour of the sport. That ship has well and truly sailed- surely- if it ever actually left the dock. He's never lived up to the hype, and now there are younger, better, more interesting , less knobbish players around- why are they still obsessed with him? What does he have over them? .

Allez Ugo!! You can do it.

They are just saving face now Raahh

Come on Ugo!

I thought they sowed the grass afresh each year on centre court? But it does seem especially slippy this year. Djoko also had a couple of minor slips.

at the Boris confusion (again) - they are starting to look quite similar though!

Des the goldfish

I don’t get Today at Wimbledon being on before all the matches have finished either

Non pushy parents is a refreshing change in the tennis world!

Djok can fall over any time he likes..

Jane I think you're right. They've been saying it so long, they can't back track now. If he carries on, they will still be wittering about the young genius that he is- when he's 37 and still hasn't won anything.

Oh stop shouting!

Yes!!

Peregrina I thought they re-seeded every year too- after the tournament you always see the pictures of the diggers going in and ripping the place up . I can't imagine they have left the grounds as they were when it was re-done in 2019. I'd be surprised.

Djok will never slip. He had elasticated ankles. It's all because of skiing, apparently. and he's not human.

Sorry who's this young genius that they witter on about? I only really watch Federer. Although I did watch the Djoko match yesterday and thought Jack Draper did well to take the first set. So even if Djoko wins this year, he won't be able to say he didn't drop a set on the way.

I mean, he slips, but he won't get injured. He seems to bend in strange ways.

Stretch Armstrong

I'm not sure why Kyrgios plays at all. He must have enough money now to do something he actually likes.

Peregrina it's Nick Kyrgios. The commentators love him for reasons best known to themselves.

Ahh, Stretch Armstrong.

They were creepy, weren't they? .
