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

[Fizzywinegum]

New thread!

It's a pile of shite Fizzy but it did fairly good. I don't get it!

Was scared to check the scores in case Holger lost but phew he won!

Holger had apologised to Daniil but he didn't see it. It's all there on tape though

Well done Maria. Keep going!

No handshake well done Aryna

Really pleased for Maria- I would like to see her do well. Aryna did well today.
I'm assuming they will be showing the Djok match next. Probably time to do something else Fingers crossed Alejandro can give him some sort of match.

I let DS1 have the telly for the Gaelic so I won't see Djokovic. I saw him arriving with his bicycle helmet yesterday which was funny

Interesting that they are saying they have broken the attendance records in Rome this week- given the weather etc.

I bet a lot of that is to do with the huge numbers there to see Rafa.

The footage of Rafa on the bridge was so emotional 🥺

Against my better judgement, I am still sitting here watching Djok.

Tabilo is 3-0 up. VAMOS.

Come on Tabilo! Further proof that Djok is a vampire and doesn’t do well in the daylight!

yay! First set Tabilo.

(not that I trust Djok at all... )

I don't know how you do it Raahh
I* *would sooner stick pins in my eyes, than watch Djok! The last time I saw him play was when I saw Alcaraz was just about to win Wimbledon, so I quickly saw the final point of the match

Time for some magic fig juice? Maybe Goran took the secret recipe with him which is why Djok’s results haven’t been so good since he left

I am enjoying score watching so far

I have it half on in the background ^kazza* (I'm ironing)

It's always easier to watch him when he's losing

Tabilo is playing very well. 2-0 up in the second set. Doesn't seem phased.

Now see I don't know how you do ironing while watching tennis

I can only do it , during a match I'm not too fussed about, Jane.

Or I would get distracted and burn things.

Vamos Alejandro!

Just turned on the match. I’ve never seen Djok play this badly, there’s surely going to be some big excuse coming.

I love this scoreline...

Come on Tabilo - I only watch Djok when it looks like he might be losing

Oh, no doubt. He will be stressed because of all the stuff with his team blah blah

There will be all sorts of excuses flying.

He’ll be blaming the water bottle incident

Haha me too.

woohoo, well done Alejandro!

bet Djok blames that drink bottle falling on his head.
