Elena started off the far the stronger of the two, but after hurting her leg, the momentum really changed.

JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 17:32

That's a shame for her. Well done Iga

Iga looked worried to death during the fireworksGrin

Raahh · 17/02/2024 17:54

I think the smoke is choking them courtside.

JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 18:02

I don't think Gigi is fan of all the noise Grin

Iga missed the shin drama even though she was right there Grin

The windy is playing havoc with the hairdos

I think the noise was getting on Gigi's nerves= Jane- she was glad to go to Rotterdam for some quiet!

Iga was too busy chatting with her team to notice why they had the medical delay, i think!

Raahh · 17/02/2024 18:17

well, I am not keen on the Sky channel, Marion.

Bring back Prime.

JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 18:24

The commentary on the wheelchair tennis is inaudible but the sound of play is at normal levels. It's really annoying!

Raahh · 17/02/2024 18:27

I thought it was my tv!

The camera angle is alo very strange.

JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 18:36

Carota Boys in the house!

That's nice- I suppose it's not so far to travel.

I will have to leave this to watch the final of The Masked Singer in a bit

JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 18:54

I’ve just found the Tennis Channel on Sky - it wasn’t there when I looked the other day - I’m not keen on the colour of the court in Rotterdam - Sinner’s top matches the outside bit of the court

Hope you enjoy the masked singer - can’t believe it’s the final already! (Does that mean it won’t be on next week? Grin)

Fizzywinegum · 17/02/2024 19:38

I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen Tallon Griekspoor before!

JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 20:56

You dodged the* backing Ladybird Fizzy* Grin

Carlos is playing shortly

Carlos flinging his racquet

Jarry got a time violation at match point Hmm

He's beaten Carlos but he's not enjoyable to watch. I think Carlos struggled with the lack of rhythm.

OP posts:
JaneJeffer · 17/02/2024 23:09

I wonder why the Argentinian crowd didn't support the South American player?! He's got to play Diaz Acosta in the final so the whole crowd will be against him then!

Another reason to not watch the Masked Singer Grin

Raahh · 18/02/2024 09:56

I watched some of the Carlos match, took a while to get used to the bright clay after the grim dark court in RotterdamGrin.
Carlos did seem bit unsettled- but Jarry is hard to play against. Good to see him in sleeveless- but he's no Rafa Grin

(I'm sad about Rafa).

IceandIndigo · 18/02/2024 12:46

The Argentines and the Chileans have a sporting rivalry and love to hate each other Jane, a bit like NZ and Australia, or the way Welsh rugby fans will always cheer for anyone playing against England.

IceandIndigo · 18/02/2024 12:47

Am debating subscribing to Tennis TV, anyone done that yet?

JaneJeffer · 18/02/2024 13:18

Ah that explains it Ice. I believe kazza said she subscribed to Tennis TV
