TENNIS - high on a mountain in Torino the season comes to a close

[JaneJeffer]

Jane Djok needs to shut up. Why is no-one calling him out on the constant moaning? Rafa was accused in an article last year during RG of always mentioning his foot. He never did, unless explicitly asked. And it was never an excuse. Djok's constant 'pre-emptive injury excuses' are wearing a bit thin.

I'd forgotten Djok plays Dimitrov next. The hth firmly favours Djok (9-1)- but if his injury is so bad, let's see what Grigor can do.

Come on Grigor!!

Yes I’ll definitely be supporting Grigor tomorrow - I’m very bored of Djok’s ‘injury’!

Aah Naomi’s twins - very cute!

It’s a shame about Maria - I think Felix might be the only player from the Netflix doc still in the tournament? (And he’s not been doing that well) - it’s worse than the strictly curse!

FIzzy I haven't seen the documentary- but it does seem to be a bit of a jinx .

No, Felix hasn't exactly been getting through his matches easily.

If there is a second series- they won't be flocking to be in it after this

Why couldn't Djokovic have taken part damn him!

Off you fock, Djock.

Go! Andy Go!

It's yours to win.

Not surprising Grigor favours the gaudy Nike kit. . He loves and ugly, kit, does Dimitrov

Still waffling about the fake injury- although Laura Robson was the oly one to point out he has not been very fortthcoming about what the injury actually is- a strain, a tear, nothing whatsoever. That is his right, I suppose. But it makes it feel like it's something that is just there to distract his opponent. (And an excuse to get th trainer when things start going a bit awry).

In the RBA/Murray match- my money is on RBA . He's won the last 3 matches they have played- very comfortably, the two that were played last year.

I'm not sure how much of anything I will get to watch (but I don't really want to go anywhere- I cough myself inside out when I move ).

Djok's injury, that is- I realised I didn't actually name the demonic one.
(That picture still makes me laugh).

Demonic Djok!

I knew that Grigor would be all over the gaudy Nike kit! (He’s probably got a onesie in the same material!)

I’ve got to go out in a bit (will probably take half an hour to defrost my car!)

All of the earlier men’s matches seem to have been relatively short and straightforward - I was hoping that these matches might have started later so that I could watch more of them

Dan lost against Rublev earlier

By the time I’d posted Murray had lost the first set 6-1

I'm not surprised by that, Fizzy.

I like RBA a lot, I have to admit.

I doubt there will be a repeat of the Murray obituary style montage after the match- as there was when they played in 2019 (4 years already!) That was bonkers.

Grigor has got the break back- but of course, it's nothing to do with him. It's all because Djok is injured.

I fully expect to see the trainer out at the end of this set.

I hate tie breaks.

Come on Grigor!

So close. I hope Grigor can come back fighting in the next set.

Trainer out Funny that. I don't think we need the overhead camera shots of someone pummelling his thigh!

Back now - thought that Andy’s match might be over but no - come on Andy!

I’m ignoring the Djok match

Andy looks sore but valiant.

Andy’s last two matches have got to be taking their toll on him - RBA looking good - 2 sets to 1 now

Where can I watch Murray??

I’m watching on Eurosport - think it is on Discovery + as well if you’ve got either of those

Thank you. I have Eurosport but can only find Djokovic

I’ve got it on Eurosport 2 on sky - it says that it’s skiing but they’re showing the Murray match - hope you can find it! Poor Andy looks like he’s struggling

Got it! Thank you so much. He looks shattered, as no doubt he is. Such a fighter. I love him.

I had to go out- not surprised to see that Djok's 'injury' didn't seem to continue into the next 2 sets .

I have Dimitrov on Eurosport 1 , the RBA/Murray match is on Eurosport 2.

The 4k is also showing the Djok match.
