TENNIS- The tour of Europe continues- next stop- Paris, as we head for the Finals in Turin

[Raahh]

Just noticed thread was running out. So - thought I might be organised for once.

And well done to Joe Salisbury And Rajeev Ram (who have had a rubbish year)but have just won in Vienna.

I just thought everyone was in a deep depression after Djok’s win Raahh

Fizzy there was an element of that

I see Serena has been named a fashion icon by the Council of Fashion Designers of America

kazza

I always think that there are two types of iconic- and one is just a polite way of saying 'we think this stands out for all the wrong reasons ' .

Raahh

ROFL!!

Fashion icon??

I had just popped in to say 'allo - and saw that!

All OK (ish) here but struggling with fuck ups (not mine) for my visa & wrangling for a house.

And they all speak berluddy french all the time..................................

Good to hear from you magi
Shocking* *that they speak French and clearly bloody unhelpful
Hope you get everything sorted soon.

What does ROFL mean?!

Rolling on the floor laughing kazza

Good to see you magi - can’t believe the French people speaking French all the time!

Also can’t believe that Serena is a fashion icon!

Maybe it was the cape, or the tutu?

Thanks fizzy That's* *a new one on me!

Anyone know why retired from his match today?

Good win for Draper vs Musetti in Sofia.

Rolled his ankle I hear

Thanks misty that's* *a shame.

DS just sent me a link.....Stan had 2 match points at 6-4 in the second set tiebreak. Turned his ankle, lost the tiebreak and retired. So I guess that's the end of his season.

That is such a shame for Stan

Hi Magi! Pesky French, eh? , hope you manage to get sorted!

Maybe it was the bed sheet that made Serena a fashion icon? That was a good one.

It's hard to tell, isn't Raahh, there's* *just so many fantastically iconic outfits to choose from

I'm enjoying all the players wandering around Turin like rockstars.

Haven't managed to watch any tennis this week gaah!

Hi magi 👋

Poncho Tsitsipas is definitely a thing!

Oh yes he was serving Demis Roussos (do you think he's sexy Ange?)

Yes, the 'Class of 23' photo was quite funny. I'm sure there will be one of them togged up in suits but Djoks looked really daft in his jacket- next to the Carlos in his -who is, what -16 years younger?

And Stef in his poncho was a classic. Should have let Jannik wear that- would have match his Alpaca hair.

Yikes I’ve just seen the WTF photo - I don’t think anyone comes out of it well! Djok looks like he’s auditioning for Grease, Holger looks like a middle aged man and as for Stef - I have no words!

I can’t imagine Rafa going along with all that nonsense (Roger did quite like a cardi though )

If Domi had been there, he would definitelyhave been wearing a dodgy 80s leather jacket. Or stone washed denim.

I'm not really sure what 'look' they were going for .

Domi would have had his hair ‘frosted’ specially for the occasion

Tennis players always look a bit weird when they’re not wearing their tennis kits (and sometimes when they are wearing their tennis kits!)

Smart casual is always a hard look to pin down

Fizzy Domi and his frosted tips were a very special look.

Ponchos are pushing 'smart casual' to a whole new level.

I wonder if their luggage got lost and it was a case of - 'we've found some items left from Eurovision...'.

Shame the Carota Boys weren't around.

Holger looks like me walking into a crowded room - awkward as fuck I bet Aneke made him wear that jacket in case it rained.

Sorry about the huge link

They do all look as if they’ve raided the dressing up box!
