Tennis: US Open - hoping for a happy ending

[JaneJeffer]

I have to do everything myself around here

Ben and Dan playing doubles would have been fun, I think. So it's a shame they aren't playing now.

x post- oh that doesn't sound good at all kazza.

Why do these things keep happening to all the wrong players? .

I know. It's shite Raahh. I'm guessing you and I may have the same particular 'right' person in mind, who sails along whilst everyone else drops like flies around him

Oh, I think we probably do.

He's been absent a while, our mutual 'friend'- and no doubt is going to return to a fanfare, and win bloody every thing. .

Well done Hubi.

I'm confusing myself today over whether I'm watching Basel or Vienna.

Oh no that’s a shame for Dan

The two tournaments are confusing me as well

Yes some people never seem to get injured (even when they say they are )

Very close first set in Vienna for Stef/Domi - shame for Domi to lose it.
In Basel, things not going well for Rune by the look of the score- Holger is possibly still injured? Lost the firstset 1-6. I hope he is ok- he's defending Paris- is starting to look worrying.

Better second set from Holger, very close- heading for a tie break probably.

Boris looking on. Not so ruddy faced these days

I think Boris went on an enforced health kick when he was in prison

I’m flicking between this match and Domi against Tsitsipas - not looking too good for Domi

yes he probably did.

I'm switching between the two- it's a hame for Domi- I think the crowd would love to see him do well.He really had a few chances in the first set- but Stef's serve got him out of trouble once or twice.

I’m not a fan of all the music and noise at the change of ends in Vienna - it must be a bit distracting for the players who just want a bit of quiet time to think!

Ooh good shot from Thiem - would love to see him do well here

Aah shame for Domi but well done Stef

Come on Holger!

Well done Holger- that was a good turn around.

I missed it all today. Got a callback for breast check clinic but thankfully all is ok after more investigation.

Well done Stef but poor Domi. I saw Stef posted a pic of Paula the other day with him and Petros saying something about family being everything 🥹

Hello Stan

Glad to see the other Dominic won his match

That must have been a worry Jane - glad that everything is ok

Well done Holger - the Boris effect seems to be working - I’m assuming that Stan will be playing in Switzerland - is this the tournament where Roger won a cow?

That's good news Jane.

Stef is very cryptic Just say what you mean, man.

(I keep seeing the teeth advert with Paula randomly, as well. ).

Too much good tennis on all at the same time - I’m not sure about Grigor’s top - it’s very 80s - I know he’s playing in Vienna because it’s helpfully written on the court!

Roger must have had a whole herd of cows, Fizzy

Yes it was a bit Fizzy I'm relieved!

Dominic needs the cow

The teeth advert is weird Raahh - not sure how well known she is outside of tennis circles?

I can’t work out if Tsitsidosa are still together?

I've put Karen and Jiri on. The ATP photo of Lehecka is awful, he looks like a ghost

And then there's this one where they tried to make him look less ghostly by shining a red spotlight on him

ATP photographers are terrible!
