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 .

When I put an emoji it posted a different one. I’m going to get in trouble 😏
bad idea about the Russians

Just realised the old emojis are under the M

Barcelona looks colder than here!

It did yesterday Jane - Belgrade didn’t look much better!

They do like to wrap up a bit in European countries though!

Aww Carlos "the windy"

Managed to watch a bit of tennis today. I watched Emma win her match in Stuttgart pretty easily. Then turned on the Alcatraz match just in time to see the last ball of the match! Now DD is hogging the TV but might catch a bit more later on the iPad. I’ve got a couple of days off work now so will hopefully get chance to see a bit more tennis, although the family want to go out so we’ll have to see how it goes.

Alcaraz! will blame new site and not my fat fingers

Hate this new format
Not sure what to think about the LTA stance on Russian and Belarusian players.

Andy and Jack Draper have got Madrid wildcards. Thought Andy was steering clear of the whole clay court season?

@ChessieFL where's the women's being shown?

Alcatraz Chessie 😂I bet Robbie uses escape from Alcatraz all the time or is that too obvious even for him?

I’m still hating the new format kazza - it doesn’t seem to have improved anything and seems very slow

I think Andy is trying to get some match practice in before Wimbledon - will be interesting to see how he gets on

The French Open are still allowing Russian players to play so it seems strange that Wimbledon have gone out on a limb - it did say that they had consulted the government so that could explain things

Amazon Prime @JaneJeffer

Oh I didn't notice it on there! Mind you since I accidentally watched Serbia the other day I'm not surprised

Looks as if Djok is not having an easy time - It’s gone into a third set after he just managed to win the second set tiebreak - I might tune in!

Boo Djok won in the end but it wasn’t easy for him - he looked pretty worn out at the end of the third set

Typical!

😂

I guess it's raining in Barcelona.

The Dog thinks the Russians should be banned. He's fighting in Ukraine. It's all very sad.

Come on Kecmanovic!

Some right glamour-pusses in Belgrade.

The umpire sounds like an automaton.

Just switched on - Come on Kecmanovic!

Ive got a new work laptop today - it’s even more complicated than the new Mumsnet! My old brain can’t cope with all these new fangled things

there was an interview on the radio with Stakhovsky, who is also fighting, Jane - it is all very sad

The weather’s lovely here - better than in Barcelona - I think some of the matches were suspended yesterday as well

I don't think laptops have kept up with technology. They seem to get worse instead of better. Bit like Mumsnet

We've got lovely sunshine as well. Hopefully it will stay.

Really hope Kecmanovic can do this but Djok is sneaking back. Grr

The roaring makes me want to lamp him.

Same here Jane - looks like he’s going to win this one - boo!
