TENNIS THREAD- US Open heads to the second week. Take a seat. ANY seat. :-)

[Raahh]

I had to sort out DD2- and didn't realise the thread was full.

I think Diego's kit might be green and yellow,

Appropriate I hope she's ok. She was in hospital when the US Open was on too- so hopefully it's just a precaution.
He left it as late as he could to go there, and played his part. At least London is not as far away as he could have been.

Oh I hope she's ok Appropriate the poor thing she is having a tough pregnancy

Love this

Don't set them off again Matteo!

You've seen this, I take it?

Holding hands! Me and my daughter (ancient 31 year old child) are both massive tennis fans, and we each sent this link to each other simultaneously.

Yes mazylou so sweet. There's billions of photos on Instagram. Roger has taken over from the Queen in my feed

Aah love the picture of Roger and Rafa holding hands ❤️

Hope that Xisca and the baby are OK

I wonder if there’s a replay of the match last night anywhere? I really want to watch it

Shot him up Jim?

Do you have Eurosport Fizzy? It's on the catch up thingy.

What's Jack Sock up to?

Yes I do Jane - thank you I’ll have a look

Found it! Think I might watch it now - Cam seems to be having a bit of a mare!

I totally expect Taylor to hammer him

I know it’s been said before but I really don’t like the grey court!

It's horrible. Every time it goes from a closeup of the players to a wider angle it startles me!

Yes it is horrible!

Annoyingly the replay of last night’s match ended after the second set tiebreak - grr! I wanted to watch the Roger love in!

Have the super coaches worked their magic on Cam?

Here's some of the cry fest

Lots of empty seats today

Come on Cam!

Arrgh! Norris did better than I thought he would though.

Thanks for that Jane - poor Rafa bursting into tears - I think we needed Sue doing that interview instead of Jim!

Ooh all level now!

Well said Taylor.

Roger's pants are on fire

Stan had to retire in his match with Bublik hope he's ok.

I had to go shopping so missed the Cam match.
I really like Taylor though- he's had such a good year, and made a few new fans along the way I think.

Am about Stan

Jane I have so many things about Roger and Rafa on my newsfeeds- I do love the picture of them holding hands. I don't think anyone watching last night can say that the friendship and respect they have for each other is anything but genuine.

Federer's love for Ellie Goulding though, -I'm not buying that

That announcer is dire
