TENNIS THREAD- We've mowed the grass, and now it's onwards to the hard courts!

[Raahh]

Quite neat timing for a new thread really.

I thought Musseti was going to win the first set in his match and turned over - but Coric won on a tie break.

Happy Birthday Jannik
It's DD1's birthday. I tried to suggest things to do, but she's making the most of sleep I think before GCSE results and 6th form

Happy Birthday to DD1 Raahh tell her to get as much sleep as possible before she has an annoying man ruining it on her!

So we now know that Rafa will play Coric. Which earlier my phone wanted to change to 'Doris'

Very true, Jane- I have forgotten the last time I had an unbroken nights sleep!And it'd nothing to do with small children.

Doris

It might stick, Jane.

Oops racquet smash from Sinner.

Come on Jannik!

Ugh I just tuned in to see Kyrgios is a set up

I had to take the dog for another walk- was hoping ADF would swiftly get rid of Kyrgios in my absence, but Dick took the first set.
ADF does have odd socks- and Rusedski is wearing a linen shirt that looks like his wife bought it for herself from M and S.

Kyrgios looks like he got dressed in the dark, and just grabbed anything.

X post.

It's very disappointing, Jane.

Was Greg's shirt blue? He was practically wearing the same shirt as Martina last night

What doubles are they on about?

What's dick banging on about?

So Casper got penalised the other day for having a conversation but it's fine for Kyrgios to have one.

Oh the crowd don't like it. Good.

Jane matbe Greg lost his luggage, and he is in fact borrowing clothes off Martina. I got called upstairs and missed the doubles chat. Dick keeps swapping doubles partners.

It 's about time they threw him out. This is no acceptable at all.

I'm glad it's Amelie.

To paraphrase Squeeze we don't mind the language it's the beating we don't need Sam

I'm mad at Amelie. She got down off her chair and walked over to Casper to tell him he wasn't allowed to speak to his dad but has ignored Kyrgios muttering constantly to his team

Jane they always let him get away with things. I'm so, so fed up with listening to commentators talking about him like he's 5 getting over a tantrum. It's pathetic really.

Why does he get all these special dispensations? "He needs to get it out of his system" what other job would that be allowed in? Ridiculous.

Sam, the other players probably think he's a dick.

And they are going to let him get away with admitting to throwing a set at Wimbledon? When other players get fined for tanking. So, he tanked at Wimbledon, and spat at the crowd. But he's amazing and he got to the final. Bloody hell.

I can't think of many jobs where he would be allowed to constantly rant at those in charge, and swear at colleagues. And get away with it- because it's personality.
