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

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

I'm a bit cross. Can you tell Grin.

Couldn't agree more Raahh
Fed up of this dumbing down!

Fizzywinegum · 10/11/2021 19:26

It looks as if Andy Murray is doing well against Jannick Sinner in Stockholm but I can’t seem to find it on Prime Confused

There seems to be a lot of tennis on this week (apart from the match I want to watch!)

I agree with not liking the dumbing down (and complicated scoring system) of the Next Gen tournaments

kazzaD66 · 10/11/2021 22:16

I don't think Stockholm is on Prime fizzy unfortunately!
Brilliant win for Andy though. Let's hope both he and Dan can both win their next matches. Then we'll have a British finalist Grin

Fizzywinegum · 11/11/2021 17:04

Looks as if Dan is out of Stockholm now kazza - wish it was on the telly - I’m home alone tonight so would have liked to watch Andy’s match

Can’t really be doing with the Next Gen nonsense (although Stef having an argument with his Mum and dad and trashing his headphones was fairly entertaining!)

kazzaD66 · 11/11/2021 17:10

Yep fizzy it's all down to Andy (yet again!)
The Tiafoe score line was bizarre and Dan really needs to stop losing from winning positions. It's not a great look Hmm

ChessieFL · 11/11/2021 19:23

The BBC seem to be ignoring Stockholm as well as it not being on Prime - I usually go to BBC Sport to check scores etc but for some reason, while there are stories about Murray and Evans winning or losing, when I go to the latest scores or results pages it’s not there at all! Weird.

I would have been a bit disappointed if I had tickets for the semi finals in Austria - looks like Halep withdrew before her match and then Danielle Collins retired after the first set in her match. Hope they are both OK.

Raahh · 11/11/2021 19:36

I really like Halep, and she's not had the best year really- it was a real shame she didn't get the chance to defend her Wimbledon title (although I was pleased for Ash). I do hope next year is better for her.

I'm watching a bit of Korda v Nakashima. We got a new telly and I can watch Prime on it. Happy days.

It was great when I discovered I could watch Prime on the tv. Well, when it works, it's great . Grin.

I am also confused about the scoring system!

It seems no length since Stef and co were Next Gen.

Raahh · 12/11/2021 19:20

Jane it doesn't, does it? They grow up so fast Grin

I missed Carlos. Glad he won. I'd love him to get the title.

Raahh · 12/11/2021 21:38

Jane He has had such a good year- and come a long way since being beaten on his 18th birthday by Rafa. Which is probably one of the highlights of his year. Even though he lost Grin.

Jane that is brilliant. Grin.

I miss X Factor. Proper X Factor, from the old days when people like Wagner were on it, and it was fun. Not boring celebrity rubbish X Factor- which was 2 years ago now, oddly. It was so bad .Grin.

JaneJeffer · 13/11/2021 19:46

I'm really missing it this year Sad
It's Vagner Louis Grin

Raahh · 13/11/2021 19:59

Jane it was always the run up to Christmas - I have been watching Strictly, which in 'the X Factor Days' I never really did, I watched bits of it, and always watched last few weeks, but didn't watch it every week. But last year and this, I've watched it, because there's nothing else Grin.

Raahh · 13/11/2021 20:05

So, for the first time this week (and in time for the final) I am watching Alcaraz and Korda in the Next Gen final.

I don't get the scoring, but it's this, or Michael McIntyre and the The Wheel Grin.

OP posts:
Raahh · 13/11/2021 20:05

I like both of them- I think they have big futures, but I want Carlos to win.
