Oh that was a lovely tribute to Sue. I didn't realise how close she and Henman, Mac etc are

Raahh · 10/07/2022 18:09

The women's doubles has already started

AndNobbyDancing · 10/07/2022 18:09

I watched Djok make his speech and I'm glad if their had to be a winner it was him (although again Nick seems normal in the interview)

Sadly not watching women's doubles (although I agree is a tough act to follow) as moving over to my more normal viewing of football.

Her cancer was caught very early, stage 1or 2, she has a good chance of being okay.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2022 18:13

Aww that was lovely for Sue

Loved the Sue tribute.

Raahh · 10/07/2022 18:16

Sue can come back next year, in the crowd, and take over from 700 drinks woman.

Raahh · 10/07/2022 18:18

I am a bit worried about who they will replace her with.

So long as AC doesn't get promoted.

700DrinksWoman · 10/07/2022 18:18

See you next year!

MinglingFlamingo · 10/07/2022 18:21

I am a bit worried about who they will replace her with.

I'm wondering that. Big shoes to fill

Andy Murray ! I bet they get him in to do a stint
Or someone from the five live team ?

MinglingFlamingo · 10/07/2022 18:37

I hope they get Deliciano to commentate again. And other players who are coming to the end of their careers. I liked the freshness and new perspective he brought

Gooseysgirl · 10/07/2022 18:41

Andy Murray is brilliant at commentary.. I'm guessing Clare Balding is probably a shoe-in for the job.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2022 18:51

700DrinksWoman · 10/07/2022 18:18

See you next year!

Not if Kyrgios sees you first

The silence after Djok said I think it loves me back Blush

Claire -Voice of Doom does not have the same ring to it Sad

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2022 19:00

The cricket lady seemed to disappear.

Raahh · 10/07/2022 19:08

I'd like Barbora to win the doubles- her RG win last year seems to get a bit forgotten.

Raahh · 10/07/2022 19:12

Jane I said the same to dh - everyone else made an appearance overthe finals weekend- Isa was conspicuous by her absence.

The thing is - Sue is not a commentator, she's a presenter/anchor and that's a bit different to just commentating on a match. Murray certainly couldn't do what Sue does. Commentate the odd match, sure. Claire is probably the most experienced at that type of thing but I'm not sure I want her taking over.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2022 19:14

Happy for the Czechs
