Just so lovely to think we wake up tomorrow to the best 2 weeks of the year.

ABD for the mens & Kivitova for the women!

I was reading up on the red button situation here and apparently the problem is that a tv transmitter in Yorkshire went up in flames last year so we can't get the signal!

Raahh · 28/06/2022 11:38

Oh, I hadn't thought about Xisca- definitely need to keep covid well away from the Rafa camp.
(She might have stayed at home).

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 11:39

Every time I look at the telly there's a different match on. It's like giving a toddler the remote.

bizzey · 28/06/2022 11:41

I noticed 2 matches cancelled today .
Does that mean the opponent goes through automatically?

What happens if 3 of them have COVID and therefore can't play...what happens to the single player free from COVID ?

bizzey · 28/06/2022 11:42

Nice breeze here today .😁

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 11:43

They lock him in a room with the other three bizzey Grin

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 11:44

If it's still the first round they'll bring in a lucky loser.

Raahh · 28/06/2022 11:46

Jane that seems a bit strange.

And in today's 'kit watch' Ostapenko seems to be wearing a quite see-through version of the frilly sleeved top. I think the back of the top and the skirt are made of the same fabric. It's not very white. looks almost cream. Unless it's my tv Grin

So, does Garin get a walkover in his match, or will they bus in a lucky loser?

bizzey · 28/06/2022 11:46

Ohh ,like a wild card sort of thing ?

Raahh · 28/06/2022 11:47

x post re-the lucky loser situation.

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 11:48

They would have been knocked out in the qualifying bizzey and now they're knocked back in Grin

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 11:50

Garin is playing Elias Ymer now. Mikael Ymer will never get to finish his first match at this rate. It's interrupted again.

magimedi · 28/06/2022 11:56

If you all want a great laugh at my expense (and AC's!) I have just tested + for Covid. Felt like I was starting a cold yesterday & had a rough night & then 2 lines.
Apart from a vile cough I feel OK and am just thankful it's Wimbledon as I have occupation during isolation.

Looking forward to seein IGa & Rafa.

magi that's rubbish!! (But a good excuse to sit an watch the tennis) I don't have an excuse, I just do it. Grin

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 12:01

Oh no magi (it was that photo what did for your immune system) take care of yourself x

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 12:02

Likewise Raahh - if you do it regularly enough people eventually stop questioning it Grin

Raahh · 28/06/2022 12:10

I just turned over to the Grigor match, I think he had a bit of a fall? Seems to have an issue with his thigh.

And Sakkari is wearing the crop top /shorts combo. She looks good- I can't decide if I like it or not , or whether she looks like she's actually forgotten her t-shirt.

Raahh · 28/06/2022 12:11

When she was sitting down just now, it really did look a lot like a sports bra.

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 12:13

Ryan has a break in the second.

MinglingFlamingo · 28/06/2022 12:16

Shame about Berretini- let's hopes he & Djork were in close contact recently.

Oh no! Hope you're feeling ok Magi. But it's a very good reason to watch Wimbledon

Raahh · 28/06/2022 12:25

He's doing well, Jane

Ostapenko and Sakkari have both won, at pretty much the same time.

Grigor's injury must have been bad - the match has ended in a walkover for Johnson. Sad

JaneJeffer · 28/06/2022 12:27

Pedro Martinez is supposed to be playing soon but there's still matches from yesterday to be finished.

MinglingFlamingo · 28/06/2022 12:33

I'm really not sure about the presenter last. She seems really unsure of what she is aging when she does those announcements

Raahh · 28/06/2022 12:33

I've just seen that poor Garin has had his match bumped from Court 1 now to Court 18! That's a bit harsh. Grin

MinglingFlamingo · 28/06/2022 12:33

Posted too soon... I just hope it's new job nerves
