Tennis: Clay Swing Continues - check your altitude

[JaneJeffer]

I don't mind bananas. I lived on banana milk shake when I was pg with my dds. I got really bad heartburn both times, and it was the only thing that helped! (Didn't get it with DS).

Oh- break for Stef. I think that might be the turning point of the match. Maybe

I am too It would be a great story.

Yes I think Struff deserves some reward for all his Struffings

Greg seems to have got his shirt back from Dani and sewn the bottom bit back on!

Struff is great at conserving energy for the points he knows he will get

I wonder if anyone put money on a Karatsev-Struff semifinal?

Doubt it Ice unless Mr. "I lost all my money because of you" did

I am giving to score watch since Prime has gone wonky for me.
Struff doesn't seem phased by being the underdog in this match.

Struff's coach puts me in mind of Rasputin

Struffing continues! Well done Jan-Lennard

Well done Struff!

Who did he lose to in qualifying?

Karatsev Ice! Eek!

Of people know who he is! Sheesh

Of course

OMG!

Wow well done Struff!

Did anyone see the minion he held up to the camera? I kept thinking that he had a look of Gru but not sure if that’s anything to do with it?

Maybe he just thinks he’s a minion compared to the bigger guys?

I kept thinking that he had a look of Gru

I don't know anything about the minions because I haven't seen the films. I thought it might be for his little boy because he wrote his name on the camera.

Oh that would be nice if it was for his little boy (he does still remind me of Gru but in a nice way I think )

Well I'm going to be having fun now Fizzy he he

Love it Jane !

Just looked back at the results. Looks like Karatsev beat Struff fairly easily in qualifying, even though he was the 22nd seed and Struff was top seed. I think there may be a different outcome in the semis.

Easy win for Iga

I missed the end- so well done to Struff. It's so funny that he now plays Karatsev again.

Jane I LOVE the Gru pictures- we are big fans of the Minions here . I will be looking at poor Struff in a different light now.

Looking at today's matches, I think it should be an easy match for Carlos.

Happy Birthday Carlitos! Hard to believe that it's 2 years since Rafa beat him on his birthday - and look where he is now.

Might not be too easy for Carlos though- they've never played each other before, so that can be a bit of a danger- usually for the favourite.

I feel like I have lost a day somewhere this week- all the days off/strikes etc have messed with my head.
