Tennis: Wimbledon Week 2

[JaneJeffer]

Imaginative title

Come on Marton you can play better than this! I'm hoping he's playing Djok at his own game and tanking the first.

Hope fully he's just lulling him into a false sense of security.

Or something.

COME ON MARTON.

Things have turned in the Denis/Karen match- although Denis is playing better in the 4th game.

At least he's avoided a bagel .

On the other hand, Denis seems determined to get a bagel this set.

And a break for Marton- could this be the big comeback? .

Come on Marton!

That's good news!

Maybe Denis is just very hungry? Bagels are pretty delicious.

Grouchy they are .

I wondered if they would mention the Davis Cup thing.

That will follow him forever, poor bloke.

Oops Djok did the splits.

"Thankfully he's so flexible nothing happens to him" says Boris.

Come on Marton! This is more like it.

Thanks Boris - we know unfortunately.

Well, Marton might have lost the set, but at 5-0, it didn't look like he was ever going to win a game- so it is a bit more positive.

If I were a teenager Khach v Shap would 100% be the match I'd choose to watch right now.

Martina has very strong opinions about towels.

John says if you're a tennis player it's good to have a partner called Annette. Groan.

Meanwhile- Joe Salisbury (who I always think gets very overlooked by the British media) and Rajiv Ram, are 2 sets up in their match against Cabal/Farah.

Aargh Marton!

Jane that is terrible.

He said he got it from a Christmas cracker

Damn Marton had a chance to break there. Come on!!

I'm surprised that Team Djokovic lady is wearing a mask!

Jane it does sound like a cracker joke.

Marton has at least slowed this match down, after Djok raced ahead the start.

The whole slamdiscussion thing is difficult to call. No-one expected anyone to win more 14 slams.

I think Borg would have won more than 11 slams, had he not retired as early as he did.
