Tennis: US Open - sick as a small hospital

[JaneJeffer]

I couldn't resist, it's something we say in Ireland, sorry

Jelena should have given away a few more tickets so she could get some encouragement from somewhere!

If this match doesn’t last much longer Djok will have to play in the full heat of the afternoon (oh dear what a shame that would be)

He'll be putting on the full heat stroke show then I guess

I’m wondering if he might be in negotiations to have the roof closed!

Yes he’ll probably look like he’s at deaths door but then make a full recovery

I can imagine Djok is angling for the roof shut. Probably help with the shadow...

Hello! I’ve had to travel for work and the hotel Wi-Fi is rubbish so I’m unlikely to see any tennis tonight. I’ll have to rely on you lot to fill me in on all the interesting action!

Looks from the scoreline like Coco has almost got this wrapped up - now Ons is out I’d like to see Coco win it.

Ugh

I was hoping for a more exciting match Chessie

Jelena is having a nightmare - I would like Coco to win the whole thing

Jelena is very up and down isn’t she?

Yikes!

It has been a disappointing match, from the point of view I expected it to be a lot closer. But I would love to see Coco win the whole thing.

Well done Coco- not Jelena' day at all.

Well done Coco

The atmosphere was lacking

No, there was no atmophere at all.

Well done Coco - Jelena just didn’t get going at all today

Well, if the tennis doesn't work out- Coco would make a great commentator.

But it was a bit not to mention Taylor- when he's the home player!

I am shocked she didn't mention the American!

Partially closing the roof

shock news - they’re partially closing the roof

Maybe Jelena would have liked the roof to be closed as well

BOO!

Just posted this on the Emmerdale thread 😭

Oh but it's ok for some people to play in the shade Tim

Bloody hell .

Can't have him affected like everyone else, can we??

I am really annoyed about this. I know Taylor may benefit too- but it's clear it was at Djok's request. He has form.

The spectators are still in the glaring sun though.

I am more and more convinced that the whole '2 sets drop' against Djere was arranged between them- so he could say 'look, I struggled too, and still came through'.

I don't really want to watch this.

It’s special treatment for Djok - everyone else has had to deal with the heat/shadow - it’s really not fair!

Hope he loses - come on Fritz!
