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 Grin

Raahh · 28/12/2023 14:34

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

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

Fizzywinegum · 28/12/2023 14:44

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

Raahh · 28/12/2023 14:53

Oh, I really hope the comments wind up Djok Grin.

JaneJeffer · 28/12/2023 15:38

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

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

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.Grin.

Fizzywinegum · 30/12/2023 10:56

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

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

MistyMountainTop · 30/12/2023 11:06

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

Fizzywinegum · 30/12/2023 11:07

Thanks Misty - I’ll have a look

kazzaD66 · 30/12/2023 16:17

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??

IceandIndigo · 30/12/2023 17:27

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.

Fizzywinegum · 30/12/2023 18:55

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 Grin

kazzaD66 · 30/12/2023 19:10

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!

Fizzywinegum · 30/12/2023 19:20

Yes always best to ask a young person kazza Grin

IceandIndigo · 30/12/2023 20:34

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

IceandIndigo · 30/12/2023 21:36

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

Raahh · 30/12/2023 21:52

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

JaneJeffer · 30/12/2023 21:55

Happy Birthday Raahh WineCake

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

Fizzywinegum · 31/12/2023 08:22

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 Smile

It’s so nice to see him back!

Fizzywinegum · 31/12/2023 08:45

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)

Raahh · 31/12/2023 09:07

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.

Raahh · 31/12/2023 09:08

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