TENNIS: Turin continues

[JaneJeffer]

Looks as if Rafa is in Brisbane - eek! He’s looking healthy and happy so fingers crossed that he’ll have a good tournament

Andrey Rublev is obviously a fan - he’s called Rafa the Greatest of all Time and says that he’s going to win all 4 Grand Slams in 2024 - got to admire his optimism

Love Andrey . Might be some kind of mind game- or hopefully he really is that big a fan .

But I do hope his prediction is correct! (though at the moment , I will settle for seeing him win a few matches ).

Yes me too Raahh - hopefully his posts will put Djok in a bad mood at least!

Oh, I really hope the comments wind up Djok .

Just when you think you can't love Andrey any more than you already do

I will have to call the dog's next reindeer, Rubi

Today, the 'The 10 Commandments' has been on tv for several hours. That is really more of an Easter time film, to me. Despite being about Moses.

I've just seen a video of Rafa in Brisbane, walking along with Mini Rafa- who was carrying a tennis racquet nearly as big as him..

Happy birthday Raahh - I think it’s today but I’m not really sure what day it is today!

Oh I need to see mini Rafa - I bet he’s cute

I’m still wondering if I’ll be able to watch Rafa play - I’m not sure when his first match will be - I think it’s on sky sports but we’ve only got limited sky channels now - I’m wondering if it’s worth getting the tennis channel or whatever it’s called

Brisbane is on Sky Sports Mix for at least the next few days, it's free as part of a lot of packages - we've got it and are on a basic Virgin package

Thanks Misty - I’ll have a look

I don't have Sky fizzy, so was contemplating getting Tennis TV, although it doesn't have the Grand Slams. Think it may be £9.99 a month??

How does Tennis TV work, do you have to stream it from a web browser or can you get it as an app on the TV? I don’t have Sky and can’t justify the expense just for tennis.

Saw some pics of Rafa turning back the clock in a tight blue sleeveless vest! He’s only missing the white capri pants.

I’m not really sure Ice - I think if you have Prime it can be streamed from that but you still need to pay for Tennis TV (I’m probably not the best person to ask!)

I might wait and see if I can watch it on sky

Rafa is looking very good - nice to see the guns out

I don't really know how Tennis TV works. I need my DS to investigate for me before he goes back to uni next Saturday!

Yes always best to ask a young person kazza

Hmmm, the Trustpilot reviews of TennisTV are not very encouraging!

Andy Murray is playing doubles with Holger Rune in Brisbane, seems a surprising pairing!

Wrong thread- it's my birthday. I've had a drink

Happy Birthday Raahh

I like it could get stroppy

Happy birthday Raahh! Hope you’ve had a great day 🎂

Rafa’s doubles match is just starting - I’ve got it on SkySports Main Event - he looks so happy and lovely in his pink shirt

It’s so nice to see him back!

I’m not sure if it’s the camera angle but Rafa looks like a giant compared to the other players - all the gym work must have paid off - Marc Lopez is quite diminutive though

The Aussies have just broken - Rafa looking a little bit rusty (understandably)

Fizzy I'm just switching on- I saw overnight this was due to start at 6 (our time) at one point.

I can understand Rafa will be rusty- but at least he is getting some match practice in.
He does look good in pink.

He looks very happy- having a chat with the crowd.
