Wimbledon 2022 [tennis]

[magimedi]

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!

Seeing as they let Eurosport show the highlights why not let them have some of the matches on the outside courts?

Jane I know what you mean - she seems to get confused when they move around the courts

I’ve heard her talking about cricket on the radio and she always sounded good but I don’t really understand cricket so she could have been talking nonsense

My red button appears to be working now - I think there’s more choice on the iplayer

Our Irish language channel used to have Wimbledon years ago. I wish they still had. Probably too expensive now that the Celtic tiger is dead and buried.

If you're going to get all confused you need to do it in a funny way like Alize

Jane I've been giving the presenter the benefit of the doubt all week- but I absolutely agree about the halting delivery. She also keeps getting 'technical' things wrong- like she's talking about a different sport.

Oh that’s good about Kyrgios Raahh - yes hopefully 5 set matches and doubles will be too much for him - at least they’ve not been putting him on the show courts (not that that bothers the BBC )

Jane yes, Alize is funny, and has a certain naive charm. She had a great rapport with Corretja this year at RG, and was lovely in Australia.

Shut up Todd.

Why do they wear their hats backwards?

Naomi's unglammed herself for watching Liam - hoodie on, hair in a topknot

Jane maybe save the posh frock forwhen he gets a show court match

my laptop is playing up, and I've lost about 3 posts.

She's right he is loud

And Stef has won the first set.

Well done Liam! First set.

Naomi even looks glam in a hoodie

What has Stef done to upset the Beeb? They are putting the Broady match on 2 now.

It's weird Raahh

I haven't watched much this week.
Why does Nick Kyrgios even play tennis ?
He seems to dislike everything about it and had so much potential once too : the spitting is out of order and most players would have been banned by now. Yet they give in to him and he isn't even that young anymore , so that's no excuse either. They are feeble excuses anyway and fines don't work . Only thing I've ever read that was nice about him was he compliments other players , not even sure that's true these days yet here is is upsetting people again !

Katie on BBC1 now.

Only thing I've ever read that was nice about him was he compliments other players
He's one of the most insulting people in the world

OMG !!
BBC commentators mocking height !!!

It lack of ,I should have said .

Yeah, i was surprised to read this about Nick K too! Must have been years ago though.

Kyrgios plays Stef next (probably). Todd is convinced that nick is the better player, so that won't be a problem match. . (He does lead in the hth).
I can't see Stef putting up with any rubbish from Nick- I get the feeling they don't get on -aren't they always goading each other on twitter?
