I was watching the other match @Hungrycaterpillarsmummy but some of the calls were really off. I think it's a conspiracy to get rid of the line judges!

Andrew Cotter has always tried to pronounce names correctly - he's the only British commentator who copes with Maori and Pacific Island names in the All Blacks, etc. His French pronunciation is lovely, as befits a man who studied it at Uni. Wink

I was also watching a repeat of the Rune match without realising as well Raahh - oh dear Grin

Now would be a really sensible time for me to make up my bed if I could be bothered to get off the settee!

Not sure why they didn’t put the roof on at the end of the last set

I think Matteo had been wanting the roof closed for a while, but it took them ages to agree with him.

Shame about Grigor Sad
He seemed to take a long time going off court. A lot of waving. Hope it wasn't goodbye Sad

kazza he seems to have had a reasonable run of results recenty - it would be a shame if this was the end.

Matteo’s Dad always looks stressed!

Well done Carlitos.

Real shame for Matteo- but at least he got to play this year.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2023 20:55

Well done Carlos

Fizzywinegum · 10/07/2023 20:55

Ah well done Carlos - Holger next - box office! Grin

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2023 20:56

Hardly worth putting the roof on

Nice to see Matteo getting this far

GrouchyKiwi · 10/07/2023 20:56

Well done, Carlos. A very uneven match, but some good stuff in there.

IceandIndigo · 10/07/2023 20:56

Well done Carlitos! Sad for Matteo though.

Fizzywinegum · 10/07/2023 20:57

Yes was good to see Matteo do well

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 10/07/2023 20:57

Talking of conspiracies I saw this on twitter and I don't understand what this person is meaning? They think Wimbledon are planning the games to give Novak a disadvantage?
