Wimbledon Week Two 2022

[JuanPotatoTwo]

New thread :)

Stefan is cute- it's such a shame about his dad

Oh my, you're all right. Brandon is getting not a word of commentary, it's all about NK.They even just did a discursive on serves, and referred to 'he' all the way through, as if we all just know they were analysing NK not Brandon.

thesky it's always the same- but it's by no means only Kyrgios matches it happens in. Commentators favour some players, and its as though they play by themselves.

yep it may as well be a one person match - how rude

I’ve had to turn it off annoying me too much

Also it’s just rewarding bad behaviour from earlier we learn not to do it with toddlers yet not male tennis players for some reason

Jane Fritz is tall (nearly 6ft 5?) but he's one of those of those I don't think of as tall, iyswim?

This match is not going the way i expected- so I'm glad the Garin match was good. I do really like Fritz though, he's very underrated I think, and when he's playing well, he's great to watch. (I've let him off for beating Rafa in IW ).

I like Fritz too. He's very good humoured. Kubler is very nice too and he needs the money to keep his career going so I was kind of rooting for him.

That's the thing, isn't it Jane the lack of points means the lower ranked players can't go up the rankings and get into better tournaments as of right- so at least they can make some money from this. It's something like £120,000 for winning the 3rd round at Wimbledon. That might keep Jason going for a bit.

2 sets all in the Nakashima match! Come on Brandon!

Yes come on Brandon!

Yeah kyrios tanked that last game

strange atmosphere centre court.

Ooh go Nakashima!

will watch if he’s going well

Oops

Careful Taylor

Come on Brandon!

Is it Kubler who had to go back to coaching because he couldn’t afford to play tennis? Must be so tough for the lower ranked players and yes rubbish that they can’t get any points from Wimbledon

A post came up on my insta feed where Novak and Goran were trying to put a trampoline together and little Stefan wasn’t impressed with their efforts

Oh nasty Nick is back (yawn!)

There were some plus point to covid then if it kept AC out of the commentary box :)

My correspondents on Centre Court report that someone did shout to Dick to stop moaning and that he did play a couple of funny points but that both players are playing good tennis. I don't know, as I refuse to watch the match.

Wasn't expecting to be watching the Nakashima match when I got in from
Work.

Yeah, he threw one game when he saw he was going to lose the last set, but other then that it’s been ok. He did start complaining to the umpire because he (Nick himself) made a pointless challenge to a line call - not really sure what he was hoping for there!

I had to go out. I see Kyrgios raced ahead with the next set having tanked tank the end of the 4th then. Seems fairly typical.

It's a shame. But Brandon did well.

Uh oh!

I will definitely be cheering Garin on in their next match

Kubler fritz. Omg what a match

I’ll be rooting for anyone who can beat NK

I didn’t dislike him before this match but the commentary was too annoying

I stoppeD watching Brandon match. kyrios made it grim. Wasn’t good to watch. Strange vibe
