You could be a commentator Raahh - better than Mac’s reminiscing about players we’ve never heard of Grin

I could Grin.

I could tell you all about how I was sitting 3 rows behind Cliff Richard (my mate's dad worked there- we had tickets in the members box Grin).

Well Aryna could have been warmer at the net.

Well done Mirra!

She might just want to get off court before her lunch re-appears.

Raahh · 05/06/2024 18:22

She is very sweet.

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 18:23

Aww

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 18:25

I hope Sir Andy sends her a nice message Grin

Raahh · 05/06/2024 18:25

Oh dear, someone switched Chrissie off.

ChessieFL · 05/06/2024 18:28

Another result I didn’t expect! Very pleased for Mirra.

IceandIndigo · 05/06/2024 18:28

Mirra seems like a sweet kid.

Raahh · 05/06/2024 19:11

Just watched the clip about Alex and his super fan Paul, so, so cute.

They both seem as excited as each other Grin

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 19:33

I haven't seen Mischa. He must be behind the scenes! I wish they would have him on screen because he makes interesting observations.

Raahh · 05/06/2024 19:35

Aww, Paul even has the De Minaur kit!

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 19:35

Ah look at him with the same outfit as Alex Grin

Raahh · 05/06/2024 19:35

He'll be playing for him next!

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 19:35

Is Katie there?

Raahh · 05/06/2024 19:36

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 19:35

Is Katie there?

He's ditched Katie for Paul Grin

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 19:36

Controversial Grin

JaneJeffer · 05/06/2024 19:46

Sascha looks back to normal today

kazzaD66 · 05/06/2024 20:05

I saw a clip earlier of Alex and Paul, probably the same one as you Raahh
Alex* *just seems like a really nice bloke (despite looking like Ratatouille), who can speak French, park cars and play a bit of tennis Grin
I'm sure Katie is being good and is back in Blighty, practicing on the grass.

kazzaD66 · 05/06/2024 20:08

Oh dear Alex!

Raahh · 05/06/2024 20:09

He does look like Ratatouille kazza Grin.

I'm sure he's a nicce bloke. He's just a bit dull i suppose.

But he can park cars, really well.

And seems great with kids (I'm sure Katie will be delightedGrin).

kazzaD66 · 05/06/2024 20:14

Just googled Simon Reed because he seems to have been around forever. He's 77 in August! He sounds very good on it!

Raahh · 05/06/2024 20:16

I still can't get over the fact he is the Oliver Reed's brother kazza.

kazzaD66 · 05/06/2024 20:19

Yep! I'm guessing he was the sensible one, hence why he's still here and working in his late 70s. Although, just about anyone would be the sensible one next to Oliver Reed Grin

Raahh · 05/06/2024 20:20

well, sort of the sensible one. He managed to get himself sacked from commentating on the ice skating, iirc, because he was caught making sexist comments about one of the female skaters (I think Nicky Slater was also involved )Shock

Not sure why I remember that!

Raahh · 05/06/2024 20:22

Clearly Eurosport aren't bothered who they hire. Obviously, they hired Kyrgios.
