Tennis: Finding our feet on the grass!

[Fizzywinegum]

New thread!

AC should present 'Countryfile'.

I haven't watched much of this match- but it seems everytime I switch on, AC is telling us that Harris is from a family of builders.

Harris family are builders in case anyone needs a quote

X post

Maybe that's what he's after, he wants a cheap extension building ?

He's got the 'Serbian shouty face' down , any way.

He seems funny

He kind of reminds me of our Boris

Sir? He's very polite

He seemed very relieved to win.

I’ve got Eastbourne on - they’re not playing yet but it’s quite nice listening Annabel and Gigi(Salmon I think) having an intelligent and knowledgable discussion about tennis - there was a nice interview with Ons as well

I am quite missing AC’s gossipy nattering about ducks and builders though

Shame on Tim for not giving Feli a wild card

I think Gigi is the BBC’s ‘Sue Barker headgirl’ replacement - I’ve heard her on the radio a lot but not seen her much on the telly

Oh I was wondering who she was yesterday. I need everyone to wear name badges or a hotline to AC because he knows everyone.

They should definitely have more captions - I didn’t realise that it was Anne Keothavong commentating with Sam Smith

She was talking about Pegula catching covid at her wedding and having to spend her honeymoon confined to a hotel with her husband - that seems to be AC levels of stalkery!

it looks like today could be Feli's last match- he's currently 2-6 2-4 down against Hanfmann,

VAMOS Deliciano!

Oh yay Caroline Wozniaki is coming back!

I'm still very annoyed that Feli didn't get a wildcard.

Lauren Laverne on Pointless has just been saying Lionel Richie was a really good tennis player and got a scholarship for it. Jimmy Connors did backing vocals on his first album

Jane that is very random

Lovely message from Rafa to Feli on his Instagram - boo to Tim!

That was nice. Lovely Rafa.

Struff has had to drop out of Wimbledon unfortunately, maybe give his place to Feli Tim?!

I'd love Holger/Caroline mixed doubles! Sascha also had a nice welcome back post for her.

Massive shame for Struff - he seems to have suddenly 'broken through' (even though we've been talking about him for ages). Would have been nice to see Marvin at Wimbledon

Lovely message from Rafa, who is obviously a good human person.

I hope Feli enjoys his retirement - his little boy,Dario, is very cute.

Holger/Caroline doubles would be a lot of fun, I think!

I think Struff withdrawing, bumps Ben Shelton up to a seeded spot at Wimbledon. That would be a big boost for him.

Anyone watching the draw? Some tough matches for some of the Brits although playing top seeds could be a great experience for them and means they’re likely to be on a show court.

Murray v Peniston!
