Not paying attention again Tennis

I see Kato won her mixed match against her also disqualified women's doubles partner.

Marie Bouzkova and Sara Sorribes Tormo got a lot of abuse for their part in getting the other pair disqualified and Vasek Pospisil said Kato's loss of prize money and points was theft!

Pity we can't see the pictures they are showing very well.

It's very emotional.

I missed what Iga said because everyone decided to get chatty

Raahh · 10/06/2023 17:26

Jane musically, it's a bit of dirgy hymn. Grin

JaneJeffer · 10/06/2023 17:27

Yes I thought it might be dark and depressing Raahh Grin

The lyrics are quite nice, but it sounds like something that would be a bit of a chore to sing in assembly.

Raahh · 10/06/2023 17:31

I think Radwanska wond the Legends with Lindsey Davenport.

No-one has pulled Chrissie up on the 'pissed off' thing yet Grin

I had to hand over the telly but I recorded the chat for later

OP posts:

The chat is funny, Jane - so far Mats has said Djok isn't normal, and Alex called him a robot.

Paraphrasing, but it's funny.

HmmThey are showing Casper with a problem with his knee in practice.

JaneJeffer · 10/06/2023 18:03

That's not good. Djok must have the voodoo doll out again.

OP posts:
Raahh · 10/06/2023 18:05

I hope it's nothing, but not sure why they felt the need to show it- after wittering on about Djok winning his 23rd title.

JaneJeffer · 10/06/2023 18:09

If I was playing Djok I'd pretend I had some sort of injury but I don't think Casper has my devious streak even though he's a Viking

OP posts:
Raahh · 10/06/2023 18:11

No, Casper is far too nice. But he should turn up on court with a massive tubi grip on his knee. And crutches.

And then thrash him. Grin

JaneJeffer · 10/06/2023 18:39

Wonder if the bear is from Stan? But look at the painting Grin

I've got the men's doubles on now. They've got a good crowd.

Cute panda - maybe Stan’s inside it?

I’m not feeling very excited about the men’s final but will definitely be rooting for Caspar! At least he’s got experience of being in a RG final and I don’t think he idolises Djok as much as he does Rafa but it’s still a tough ask for him

I didn’t see any of his semi against Zverev but was surprised at the one sided scoreline

I saw some of the women’s final - it was a good match - I missed Iga dropping the lid off the trophy though - I think that’s a bit of a design flaw! Maybe they should sellotape the lid on? Grin

There has been general amusement/piss taking on the Tennis Podcast about Tsitsi-dosa - apparently there is lots of oversharing on their Instagram - I sort of want to look, but also don’t want to look!

It’s boiling here - I think it’s cooler inside so I might as well stay in and watch the tennis - I think Yannick Noah will be presenting the trophy - let’s hope it’s to the right person (and not scary Spider-Man Djok!)
