TENNIS: Bienvenue à Roland-Garros

[JaneJeffer]

Just realised the tennis ball emoji is missing from the app. Merde. Off to complain!

Well done Zheng

I think time violations, especially at crucial times, are petty. Some umpires are far worse for it than others. I sometimes think it's a power trip.

Iga's serve really has gone awol, hasn't it?

Kader Nouni doesn't seem the power trip type but you never know! Don't let the chilled voice fool you

I didn't think Zheng took that long to serve and then she rushed and mishit. Next time Iga went to wipe her face on the towel and delayed her serve but that was fine. It's stupid!

Delayed Zheng I mean!

I see Sinner has the first set.

Jane no, he doesn't. Carlos Barnardes, on the other hand ...

And yes, his voice

Better from Iga- but would be a shame if Zheng got nothing for her effort from this match. A lot like BZM, yesterday who really deserved to win at least set.

Looks like a repeat of MC could be on the cards in the Sinner/Rublev match then. But 5 sets gives Rublev time.

And now Iga has lost a bunch of points whilst I wasnt looking!

Blimey...

Wow!

Iga's got her notebook out

Oh dear- after the great start, Sinner is having a medical time out.

I'd love to know what it says.

It might just be full of doodles.

Well, what ever it said, it spooked Zheng.

All work an no play...

The magic notebook seems to be working.

Oh trainer for Zheng

I don't know if the delay will help or hinder Iga

Double denim Babs?

I went to the loo, and the delay looks to have not bothered Iga too much.

Very sad for Sinner, he was doing brilliantly in the first set.

Bagels as usual, in fact.

Poor Zheng

Andrey must be relieved!

It is a shame, she did so well in the first set.
