Tennis: Heading into the clay swing - Monte Carlo, Rome, Paris, don’t forget the altitude in Madrid

[Fizzywinegum]

New thread!

Carlos has a really bright blue and yellow version of the ripple top.

I am not fond of Carlos's top, Jane. Nike have some really awful designs

I'm not sure about this odd pale shirt with the faint pastel lines that Ruusuvuori is wearing. It's the second one I've seen. It's a bit pointless- you can hardly make out the coloured bit. Like it's been washed funny.

DS1 loves the Nike tops

Ruusuvuori looks like he spilled something down his front. I just see Danny from The Partridge Family every time I look at him!

Danny from The Partridge Family

I think he's run out of steam

He need 'go faster ' stripes Jane, not wishy washy pastel ones, that's why!

He's come back to life!

No Frances!

My prime has gone a bit wonky. It seems to do this around 6pm. Bit like a toddler.

But I've seen the scores and it's quite a reversal of fortunes.

Eek match point

And Big Foe is out

Also seems to be the witching hour for MN. The app is very glitchy lately.

Big Foe

Dh has gone into the office today- so I'm making the most of things by....ironing!

Don't know whether to watch Dimitrov or Shapo. Denis is playing scary Kovalik

Sascha is playing in Munich later.

Grigor is squandering break points.

Grigor seems quite comfortable in this match.

He's gone through without much bother.

Kovalik's shorts with the stripes on the bottom remind me of those old timey bathing suits but they're strange because only the back has stripes.

Goodbye scary man

I have managed to whack my head off a door. Housework is dangerous.

Yes best avoided Jane - hope you are ok

might watch a bit of tennis in my lunch break

Aww Diego is out

I'm okay Fizzy given myself a bit of a lump.

I've been watching bits and pieces. One of the Pliskova's has beaten Maria Sakkari in Stuttgart.

There's rain in Munich today.

Jane definitely a good reason to avoid it!

I just watched the end of the Sinner/Diego match. I feel like I have watched Sinner play a lot the past week!
Shame about Diego.
