Fizzy there really is a lot going on. Grin

The frustrating thing is, though, that despite all the matches going on- there still feels an inevitability that Djok will win- so we need something to happen to quash that.

It's so much more open in the women's draw.(Although my money would be on Ash at the moment).

GrouchyKiwi · 05/07/2021 17:14

I hope it's a Barty-Kerber final. Can that happen?

That would be superb, based on the form they're both in.

Maireas · 05/07/2021 17:14

Kerber looking good, though

Raahh · 05/07/2021 17:16

Grouchy around the same time, I got a really bad eye infection, and after wearing contacts since my early teens, I went back to wearing glasses full time.

Glasses had changed a lot since the NHS ones I wore in the early 80s though, so it was all good Grin.

JaneJeffer · 05/07/2021 17:16

It's seems strange that Felix is still only 20. He's been around forever!

Can't happen Grouchy they could have a semi

I always feel a bit frazzled on manic Monday! Tomorrow I’ll probably be scratching around for a match to watch Hmm

I agree Raahh there is just an inevitability about Djok winning - maybe Daniil could cause an upset?

The women’s draw is always a lot more open - anyone could win really but yes Barty is probably the favourite especially after her win today

This tiebreak is tight

Darn. Quite often the semis are better than the final, though.
Fizzywinegum · 05/07/2021 17:21

Ooh Felix has won the second set!

JaneJeffer · 05/07/2021 17:21

Yes can definitely be better in the women's. The finals are walkovers sometimes.

Kerber is a player I tend to forget about- and yet she is a multiple slam winner. And I watch her play, and then I rememer why.

I was very annoyed the year she beat Serena- and the studio was filled with BJ King, Martina, Chrissie, - clearly they were expecting a Serena win- and they talked all about Serena. And Billie Jean tweeted something about Serena being the true champion.

I was very pissed off.

JaneJeffer · 05/07/2021 17:27

Billie Jean can be a pain in the arse sometimes.

1-1 in Daniil's match

Hurkacz is probably a player a lot of people won't know much about- he was a surprise winner in Miami, but he beat big players to gt there- Stef, Andrey, Sinner. Winner a masters isn't to be sniffed at- not many outsise the big 3 , do.

Oof- just turned over to see Sascha fall.

Raahh · 05/07/2021 17:38

And Raonic- forgot he beat him.

I like Milos. (I know he's a bit marmite)[grin).

Fizzywinegum · 05/07/2021 17:43

They’re putting Roger on the iplayer Shock (probably only for the warm up!)

That was a nasty fall for Sascha - fingers crossed he seems ok now

Is Milos injured Raahh?

Raahh · 05/07/2021 17:44

I was shocked to hear that too Fizzy Grin

Yes, Milos is injured, sadly. He really has has a lot of bad luck.

PrivateSpidey · 05/07/2021 17:46

Evening all Tennis
Am just watching Sascha v Felix. Hope Sascha is ok after that fall, it looked painful.

They disappeared off the RB channel I was watching for a minute, but I've found them again, phew Grin

JaneJeffer · 05/07/2021 17:47

Sascha falls and hurts himself. Gets back up and starts playing like a mofo Grin

MajesticWhine · 05/07/2021 17:48

Sascha getting his act together, unfortunately. Why are people in favour of Sascha Confused
I thought he was a domestic abuser?
Team Felix me.
