TENNIS - When in Rome - the clay court season continues!

New thread!

Well done Pavel. Unfortunately for you you're playing Sinner next

Adieu Stan

Don't cry Stan

Oh that's lovely giving his racquet to that little girl

Well done Pavel - he doesn’t deserve the boos

Aah Stan

Pavel is lovely

He's doing a Daniil on the crowd

Ha ha yes he was trolling the crowd

Daniil is looking very smart

I liked the colour he was wearing the other day, but at least he's ditched the leggings I think he's had a hair cut, doesn't look so 'shaggy'

I fell asleep last night, but woke up just as Stan was ending his match- I think he did well, and Kotov was playing really well in the first set I saw.

I think Jannik had a slightly tougher match against Gasquet than the score suggests, he plays in way that not many do and can still play some great shots.

When I was hoping ADF would have a decent - i didn't realise at the time he would be playing Casper. That's a blow.

Oh, Grigor's got a bagel. Go Grigor.

Kecmanovic with the trainer- that's a shame. I think on a good day, he would have had a good chance against Daniil. Still time for him to turn it round of course. But I'm not sure he will, Daniil looks quite laid back about it all.

Daniil not happy with the balls.

Nightmare for Kecmanovic. It doesn't seem to be affecting Daniil's concentration.

Aww that's a shame

Still it frees up the court!

every cloud ...

I like listening to Daniil talk French- considering Djok is meant to speak half a dozen languages, he never actually sounds very fluent in any of them .

It's funny, ever since RG got a roof (on Chatrier, and now Lenglen)- I think they've had the worst weather ever.

It's like the weather gods decided 'well, you might as well use it'.

In a way it's good that Rafa is out - lousy conditions for him to well, really.

They need Sue there to keep the show on the road while it's raining. She's an expert.

Getting fed up of this tune

Looks like it’s raining again, must be so frustrating for the players.. and the organisers! Are they moving another match to Suzanne Lenglen now that Daniil’s match finished early?

I didn’t see any of Stan’s match last night, what a shame he didn’t come through.

I think Rybakina is on there now Ice

Ah right.

Never change Alize
