TENNIS: Turin continues

[JaneJeffer]

I’ve found Dan’s match on Discovery + but it did go a bit weird yesterday

I think I’m just going to subscribe when there’s a Grand Slam on - it’s £6.99 a month and you can cancel and restart it so not too bad

At least it gives a bit more choice than Eurosport (and Djok!)

A good win for Emma - looked fairly straightforward

1 set all in the Dan/Sonego match now - this could be the five hour one!

I don’t like to switch between matches on Discovery + in case it all disappears! Bring back tennis on Prime!

I miss Prime- I know AO was never on Prime, but still
Onto the Carlos match.

Wonder what pronunciation of Alcaraz we will get today.

Oh blimey. It's Dick again.

Noise of the crowd drowning out all his waffling about Kokk

Nick- you don't name check yourself- other people are supposed to do that.

Sascha might be in trouble

I can't tell if Richard is very very sweaty- or wearing one of those wet look shirts- or a bit of both.

.

He's holding his own, so far.

So far I’ve managed to miss Nick’s commentary - not going so well for Dan now

After watching Breakpoint I think I blame Andrew Cotter at Wimbledon for the whole Alcarath thing (and Clare Balding!)

I'm trying to tune him out. He's ok - and then he says something stupid- and I remember why I don't like him

Neither Nick is going down the 'Alcarath' route though, so grateful for small mercies.

(And Andrew Cotter is one of my favourite commentators usually, so it annoys me all the more!)

There's a stand and deliver joke in there somewhere which Robbie would have found Dick

Sascha looks under the weather and definitely not playing at his best today

Still he's staying ahead

Shame for Dan - he lost in four sets

Richard ha run out of steam but at least he gave it a go in the first.

Carlos's trainers are an odd colour- like those expensive 'new- but- made to look old' ones . They look really grubby .

The end of this match is very frustrating!

Good effort Richard- might be his last match at AO.

Well done Carlos.

Oh hi Mac

Sneakers

Less of the old, eh, Mac?

Has it really been 4 years that we have only seen Mac via a screen on the cube?

Wow.

Good question Mac and good answer Carlos

Mac

Was that a shut up in Spanish?

Good interview Mac. Carlos looks good in black.

I'm not sure I've learnt that in my Duolingo lessons yet.

Juan is still hopping for his damn manzanas.
