TENNIS - French Open - what round are we in?

[Fizzywinegum]

New thread!

Casper's family look like they all want to puke

Maybe they are all ill, Jane.

I bet it's Djok's revenge.

Considering this is a GS men's semi final, the number of empty seats is shocking!

I feel very sorry for Casper. It started so well .

Oh well.

I think I am wanting Carlos to win on Sunday, not overly bothered either way, would like a good final.

But I don't know whether it feels like it's meant to be- Sascha beat Rafa, so he's going to win it ?

Well done Sascha.

Hard luck Casper.

Will be cheering for Carlitos on Sunday.

Feel bad for Casper.
Would like Carlos to win on Sunday.

Not the final I thought/hoped we would have but never mind! Don’t really mind who wins on Sunday.

Poor Casper, such a shame. Hope he gets better soon.

Will be rooting for Carlos, I'm not such a fan of Zeeverev.

Well done Sascha. I missed the end, had to escort a baby hare to the safety of the long grass!

Awww!!!

I hope he's ok. I was afraid the magpies would have him for supper!

Well done on the wildlife rescue Jane

it was a shame for Casper - I’ll be hoping for a Carlos win on Sunday now

Its a shame that so many players have been ill - it happened at a tournament a few years ago and we were all pointing our fingers at a certain person - maybe this was his parting shot before he withdrew!

Zverev winning against Rafa seems like such a long time ago - almost as if if it was a different tournament

It's like a 'Springwatch' crossover on this thread.

We need AC. Does he know anything about hares do you think? He knows about hair.

I am a bit apprehensive about today's women's final. I was reading about Steffi's 1988 win again Zverera- 6-0 6-0 (was the year of Steffi's golden slam). I really like Paolini, but I'm not sure she has the power against Iga at her best, and we've seen some clinical wins.

But it has been a tournament that has thrown up some surprises, and Iga may have caught the bug that's going round for all we know, so anything could happen at this stage!

Yes, while I don’t think Jasmine will beat Iga I hope it’s not a complete demolition job.

I like Iga but I find it really boring when she demolishes other players, particularly in a final. Hope Jasmine can make it competitive.

We need AC. Does he know anything about hares do you think? He knows about hair.

I’m not sure eating ice cream while trying to present really works!

Now they’ve ditched the ice cream - they can’t have eaten them that quickly!!

Jasmine looks so young.

It's nice she's in the doubles final as well.

She does, you wouldn’t think she’s 5 years older than Iga!

Chrissie has written her off

Chrissie is determined to pronounce Paolini in half a dozen different ways. And it is annoying me.
And it is rude.

Maybe it's an American commentator thing to just not care about saying players names right?

Hasn't she just. If it were up to her, I don't think they would bother with the match.

Yes it's annoying. It's not that hard to say it properly!
