TENNIS- It's CLAY -time! Where Hubi (and everyone else) goes to Monte Carlo!

[Raahh]

Looked like the thread was about to run out- and for once I noticed.

Still sad we can't start this thread with better news of Rafa- but fingers crossed for the next one!

Mo's enjoying it.

Oh dear, Daniil getting stroppy and Mo telling him to calm down.

The crowd are going against him, and if he's not careful he could throw the match.

Top marks for the use of frigging

I've taken the dog to the groomer- and he's turned this back around again. Not surprised it ended up 4-1 in Gael's favour at one point.

Mo and Daniil have settled their differences for today anyway .

'in or out '

Casper won his match- and walked into the net post .

Quite like the dark kit, though.

Aww, Gigi pointing out how sad Andrey still looks, whilst playing doubles.

That is a bright kit, Holger.

I wanted to sing 'Pat- rick's back- alright!' in the style of the Backstreet Boys, then.

I stopped myself.

Holger is brighter than the sun

The builders switched the electricity off to remove the cooker so I missed the end of Danill

Ooh an earring. Makes a change from all the medallions.

Pat’s back, hat’s back

How very rude.

I did notice the hat is firmly back in place.

I know Raahh with no warning or anything!

Nagal makes very strange doggy noises

I went to get the dog, and the set was over.

Hubi has won then- beat RBA sadly, but a good win.

Hmm not sure about the HO T-shirt

What did they say Hubi was, a silent killer?

Jane whoever got the 'Ho' shirt drew the short straw, did't they?

Rain.

This baffles me a bit. It doesn't seem to be heavy, and there have been many times the players have continued to play in the rain on clay (not always wanted to ). Who makes the decisions?

Grr the first chance I get to watch any tennis and it’s raining!

Holger’s kit is very yellow!

Has Sascha ditched his brother in the doubles then?
