Tennis: Wimbledon Week 2

[JaneJeffer]

Imaginative title

I’m glad it won’t be a late one, I need an early night!

Be proud of all you have achieved in such a hard year Emma

Well done to Ash.

Great view from Emma's hotel.

I am watching a doubles match. I'm sure the camera just pointed to an older lady and a young girl and the commentator said "beauty and the beast!". Unless of course he was talking about the players and the camera just filmed the ladies at the same moment...,

I'm so glad Emma is ok. What a great attitude.

Just seen Rafa on his insta watching the footy last night - he looks quite happy to say that Spain lost - I don’t think I’ve seen him since RG.

DS1 is gutted that Spain lost - he’s got them in his work sweepstake. He wanted them to win the whole thing for the sake of twenty quid! (No loyalty to his country!)

Hoping to see some of the tennis later - I think the matches on court 1 will be more interesting than the ones on centre

Ahh, Rafa.

I feel I ought to support Felix, because Uncle Toni is in his camp- so it's a sort of 'Rafa substitute'.

but I really want Matteo to win the whole thing. .

Actually - I'd be happy with Felix, Denis or Matteo winning. Even Hubert.
Anyone but Fed or Djok, to be honest.

I forgot Karen Hemsworth and Marton.

I think a lot of people will be forgetting Marton.

I hope it's a Roger Matteo final. With a five set nail biter with Matteo eventually winning

And Matteo's hair will still be perfect when he casts his hat aside, even after a 5 set epic final. Sun.

He should do shampoo ads. Like David Ginola. .

Absolutely

Not a hair out of place for his interview with Sue Barker or for his photo opp with the trophy

Not even climbing up to his friends&family box will move a strand of hair

.
I hope they get him a taller mic stand. He struggled with the one at Queen's.

Not as much as Opelka .

I hope Ash and Matteo win. She seems like such a genuinely nice person and annoying good at everything! Matteo of course for the obvious reason.

Fed up of Fed - never liked him and Novak never looks human to me. Never a hair out of place or looking remotely sweaty or tired even after a 5 setter.

Djok is a robot.
There isn't any other explanation.

I want Ash to win too- I really like her , she has no airs or graces. I also love the nod to Evonne Goolagong- Cawley this fortnight, with her dress. There's nothing ott about Ash, or flashy, she's just really lovely. I feel the same about Simona. I loved how excited she got when she won Wimbledon- not just because she'd won- but because she was a member of the All England Club .

80s it's the scary eyes that freak me out. (I know it's his contact lenses that probably make him stary, but still )

ABD to win (Anyone But Djock)

I have a feeling that Kerber might do it - it's her or Barty for me.

magi I do tend to forget about Kerber- I do like her, and she does go under the radar (which I think suits her probably).

To be honest- there isn't really anyone left in the women's draw I would object to winning.

I want Barty or Kerber to win

Barty or Kerber for me too. Their semi-final tomorrow is my most-anticipated match so if it's a damp squib I'm going to be very disappointed.

In the men's draw I am also an ABD.

Barty or Kerber for me aswell.

Sabelenka is way too noisy and intense, she's quite scary!

I'd like someone new to win the mens, don't really care who. And if it has to be one of the old ones, I don't want it to be Cock.

Saw a bit of TaW last night. Martina was a bit grouchy at times (I know it was cold and windy) but she did laugh when they were discussing Matteo and his attributes and Clare said "even I can see the attraction!"

I can imagine Matteo has gained quite a few fans, male and female, over the past few weeks .

Martina was in a grump, wasn't she? Claire kept asking her if she was cold- and she looked properly fed up.

It's time to get the wheelie bin challenge back, for some light relief. .
