TENNIS THREAD- The Slams are over, and we have new Champions!

[Raahh]

Even though the commentators are still talking about Djokovic as though Medvedev hasn't won.

How much credit does Daniil deserve? All of it! He bloody won .

I'm a bit cross. Can you tell .

Why is cross umpire lady laughing? I'm scared.

I've turned over to Strictly (dd2 decided she'd seen enough tennis for one day).

I can imagine scary umpire just randomly laughing at nothing. Just to put the players off [grin.

Tablet ran out of battery in the middle of the tiebreak
Got it back on at 9-9. Exciting!

And the French have won! Well done them.

Oh well done to them! It didn't look like they would- so pleased for them both.

Just put the doubles on. PHH and Mahut are a set down.

Morning all, haven't seen much of the tennis this week but just put the doubles on.
The crowd seem very quiet.

I think they have livened up a bit now Mama

I am watching the doubles, was doing the ironing so it gave me something to watch- forgot it started early. .

Mahut seems to have a bit of an issue with his wrist.

They are talking about PHHs shortlived 'I want to focus on singles' period . When he then became the 'player known as Andy Murray's doubles partner' instead.

He's better off with Mahut . .

There's something lovely about PHH. He looks kind of other worldly

Jane I like PHH too.

Dh has just fused the house. I told him that soemthing wasn't working- he insisted it was fine and plugged it in anyway. Everything went off, and now I can't get the tv or Prime to re-boot.

Men..

Definitely jane if they break here it will go crazy .

Oof- just came back on- and now we have a tie break - come on PHH!!

I actually forgot that they were French- Paris! .

I loved it when they won it in RG. They are such a genuinely likeable pair.

Great tennis!

Yay!

I do like Puetz and Venus too.

In fact, when I watch the doubles, I am reminded how much I enjoy watching doubles. unless Djok is playing.

Getting tense- I don't really like the championship tiebreaks.

Majorly good, ah Robbie

Really not looking forward to Djok

A shame for Mahut and PHH- but they have had a good week.

I like Annabel's poppy dress.

Jane no, I'm hoping that Danill comes out and makes him really uncomfortable.

I'm not sure who the crowd will be behind- unless Djok has shipped in his Serbian renta-a-mob.

Here we go, 'Reminiscing with Rusedski'

And it was the only masters title he won. If I remember correctly .

Aww Greg is so nice.

I think the Paris Masters might be the only one that Tim won as well, coincidentally,
