Wimbledon Week Two 2022

[JuanPotatoTwo]

New thread :)

Phew - I had a horrible vision of it going to a fifth set tiebreak - I blame DH for saying it’s no competition and then Botic started playing a blinder!

Well done Rafa - not sure I could have coped with the roof coming on!

Ugh don’t think I need to see Kyrgios again thank you!

I guess Wimbledon is less contentious but I'm glad it isn't in trending and people have to look for it.
I like the football/Olympics etc threads and when they go on trending there are lots of non related derails. (I know there is no thread police but you get what I mean)

However why are the Wimbledon threads always in telly addicts? Every single year I look for it in sports.

That was a quick TAW!

I'm happy because the invitational doubles starts tomorrow. I hope it's all on iplayer. Bahrami/Martinez at midday!

Ok so Reeta on the BBC news has already got Rafa playing Kyrgios in the next round!

You’d think with all the hours of BBC coverage that someone would get something as basic as this right on the main news!

They are getting worse. Fizzy.

I'm still wondering why no one said anything to Tracy this morning when she clearly got confused about who was playing when ( and was quite rude about Rybakina's chances- and she went on to win).

The Kyrgios obsession is really very boring.

Yes it is very boring Raahh

I think they’re too embarrassed to challenge the so called big stars who clearly haven’t done their research!

I’m not sure how trending works, but perhaps the many posts of just ‘vamos’ are discounted. And maybe the references to the good-looking members in the entourage are too.
This is a thread that has posters who are mostly of the same mind so not worth making trending. And why does it bother you that it didn?

I missed that presentation. Anyone know if I can still watch it please?

absolutely it is still in iplayer, as a stand alone programme, so not in-between an matches.

Just search 'Wimbledon centre court centenary celebration ' on there and it should come up.

The Quarter Finalists

Mac will struggle to pronounce most of the QF surnames of those ladies!
I didn't see much of the ladies tennis yesterday , but I'm sad that Cornet was beaten.
I had her down to win.

This thread is going to be fun during the Kyrigos / Nadal match. I really hope it's not a squeaky bum time match

I’m hoping that things don’t get that far Mingling!

The last time Rafa and Kyrgios played at Wimbledon was not fun! (although Rafa did win) - it was very stressful!

Just seen a headline that Dick is due in court (as opposed to on court) next month on a charge of domestic abuse against a former girlfriend last December.
Not to prejudge but....nice!

Thanks @Raahh. Found it.

Won't be able to watch any Wimbledon until I get home from work. Bugger.

@Spermysextowel I don't think anyone is bothered whether the thread is trending or not. I can't see what's trending on the app anyway. It was just someone wondering why such a busy thread isn't trending.

perhaps the many posts of just ‘vamos’ are discounted. Maybe. I wonder who has to count them all and subtract from 1000.

And maybe the references to the good-looking members in the entourage are too Nah admiring what the good Lord made can't be wrong surely.

You are very familiar with the thread so obviously enjoy reading it. Why not come and join in? Vamos!

Jesus Sue nearly blinded me.

kazza But he's so talented etc etc...

Probably get a few $$ fine and tweet from the court room.

Womens doubles on that red button is great

Raahh you've been busted by Ajla

Jane

Jane Oh my god! that is ME

Vamos!

I didn’t know that about Kyrgios kazza - no doubt it will all be someone else’s fault

Wimbledon has reached that point where there’s not actually that much tennis (in the singles anyway)

Will keep an eye on all the matches later - hopefully Sinner will give Djok a scare

I hope that Norrie does well but can’t really get excited about him - it’s pretty poor that the most exciting thing the BBC have got about him is that he cycles to Wimbledon

There are some interesting people in the invitationals - Goran, Todd Woodbridge, Philipoussis - not sure if they’re on the iplayer/red button

Feel a bit lost today with not as much tennis on!
