Grin

I’ve just switched on and ADF seems to be making a bit of a comeback - he is a bit of a strange player

Tommy Paul is one of those players that I can never really remember what he looks like - he’s got a very forgettable face - maybe it’s the baseball cap!

Raahh · 01/09/2023 18:40

Let's hope so , Jane although even Djok wouldn't chuck 2 sets before deciding to play Grin

Fizzywinegum · 01/09/2023 18:41

I like listening to Feli’s commentary - he’s got a very relaxing voice - maybe he’ll do the CBeebies bedtime story one day Grin

Raahh · 01/09/2023 18:43

And they are not showing Ben, sadly, on the other channel. They are showing Iga, who is already 5-0 up in under 20 minutes.

JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 18:43

He's lovely to listen to Fizzy <swoon>

Now that would be lovely.

Raahh · 01/09/2023 18:44

Phew, he's won a set.

JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 18:44

They think Tommy now has whatever was ailing ADF Grin

Wow!

I don’t have a problem with Tommy Paul, maybe I’m the only one. He comes across as more of an introvert to me, which feels unusual for an American. He’s been having a great season too.

Raahh · 01/09/2023 18:51

Feli says it's going to be a 5 setter. If it means I can listen to him longer, I'm all for that.

Raahh · 01/09/2023 19:05

Just turned over to see Juvan win a game - and she reacted like she'd won the match Grin
She is still 0-6 1-3 down...

Raahh · 01/09/2023 19:06

Feli's 5 set prediction might not come true- VAMOS ADF!

Aww probably relief

Aww probably relief

Iga won it 6-0 6-1- and they had a lovely hug at the net, I think they know each other quite well.

Fizzywinegum · 01/09/2023 19:20

Yes I think they’re quite good friends Raahh (maybe Iga could have let her win another game!)

Raahh · 01/09/2023 19:23

Randomly, the other channel is now showing an ancient Borg/Mac match.

Which looks even fuzzier than the Sky pictures have been up to now.

JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 19:26

Come on Jelena!

OP posts:
Raahh · 01/09/2023 19:26

I mean, it's great to see- but it's not like it's a rain break, or a reason not to be showing one of the other dozen matches currently in play.

JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 19:27

That's very random Raahh

OP posts:
JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 19:29

The shade! I don't know how ADF can see where he's serving.

OP posts:
Raahh · 01/09/2023 19:32

JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 19:27

That's very random Raahh

And now that's finished, they are taking tennis off that channel for rugby.

Cheers for that. Hmm.

it's like when Eurosport takes a chnnel off for skiing.

JaneJeffer · 01/09/2023 19:32

Domi is going for some medical tests next week. Hope he's ok.

OP posts:
Raahh · 01/09/2023 19:33

oh poor Domi, I do hope he's ok.

And TP is through.- never mind ADF, maybe next time.

IceandIndigo · 01/09/2023 19:34

Well done Tommy.
