TENNIS THREAD- it's '"Bienvenidos a Miami"- and then onwards to the clay season (with hopefully no unwanted injuries ) Vamos!

[Raahh]

Bit of Will Smith there to start a new thread.

I wanted to put 'and no anti- vaxxers' but the title was long enough already .

Jane that's a relief!

I haven't got any/had any wisdom teeth. Which I'm quite glad about, seeing the trouble they cause .

Mine were nothing but trouble. Just a few years ago I discovered after much pain that I had an impacted one and had to have it out under GA and then it got infected which was more pain. I don't see the point of wisdom teeth. It's a design flaw!

Jane Wisdom teeth are pointless, like the appendix. We don't need them, and they cause all sorts of problems and pain when they go wrong.

I've just seen that Boris (our Boris) has been found guilty of 4 of the offences he was accused of (and acquitted of 20 others).Sentencing on the 29th April.

All a bit of mess for Boris.

I’m now getting confused about which one is our Boris

Oh dear doesn’t sound good though!

God to know that we’re up to date with player’s teeth I had my impacted wisdom teeth out under local anaesthetic - it was grim

FIzzy Boris Becker.

In tennis term, he is 'our' Boris

BJ is t'other Boris.

As for teeth, I am slowly getting used to my pesky denture. I still hate it though- and am desperate to win the lottery so I can get an implant .
.

Eek! Apparently- according to the DM- Boris faces 7 years in jail! Blimey.

I think I’ve got it now Raahh

Just been reading about Boris - it’s not sounding good - the rent for his Wimbledon house was £22,000 per month

22,000!!

oh my goodness.

Why not just buy something, rather than spend that much?

Poor Boris. I know he won't get much sympathy but I think it's awful and people get less time for heinous crimes!

Jane I agree, to an extent. He shouldn't get away with things for being famous- but look how many time Katie Price has gone bankrupt/been in trouble with the law and got away with it.

I doubt we will see him commentating at Wimbledon again

I just think Boris isn't very good at being a grown up!

Jane you are probably right.
He can't even apply sunscreen properly

I've just seen the draw for Monte Carlo- Dan is in the same quarter as Djok again (having beaten him there last year)- but better still- so is Alcaraz. Carlos will probably have to get past Seb Korda on his way to the semis.
Dan has to get past RBA in his first round.

Obviously, I want Djok gone way before the semi finals, though.

Sorry- I think Carlos could meet Djok in the quarter finals, not the semis.

But Djok won't get that far...

Damn.

Kyrgios has been given a walkover in Houston against Mmoh.

I swear, if he wins the tournament, I will be really annoyed.

Is he playing Opelka in the final or semi final? I'm confused!

I think he plays Opelka next. I think it's the semi final.

But I get confused, looking at the draws (as you can tell).

I am score watching -and delighted to see Opelka is beating Kyrgios.

Of course, now I've said that, he's lost his lead in this set...

phew! I didn't jinx Opelka after all .

I'm hoping to get to watch some tennis later- I see that Stan is playing second, after the Foggy match.

Ooh thanks for reminder Raahh - that’s my afternoon sorted out - looking forward to seeing Stan

Will try to enjoy as much of Monte Carlo before you know who makes an appearance

Looks as if Cilic and Tsonga are playing each other later
