For once I am a flag waving Brit supporter, and absolutely hoping Jack wins this match.

I really don't like Tommy Paul. He's probably a very nice bloke. He irritates me intensely. Grin

Actually, AC has mentioned the racquet spinning. That doesn't help. I want to chop his hands off.

IceandIndigo · 21/06/2024 16:21

I am neutral on Tommy Paul. He’s a bit irritating but then I find his tennis quite interesting to watch. Still hope Jack wins though.

Raahh · 21/06/2024 16:23

I think I still haven't got over the fact he topped the list of top 10 best looking male players.
I mean. What??

Raahh · 21/06/2024 16:27

Top seeds are dropping in the doubles as well, Joe and Rajeev sadly lost, as did Bopanna and Ebden.

It's all a bit all over the place, form wise, this tournament.

Jannik is playing Struff in Halle and is currently 5-2 up. They've had some big upsets too.

IceandIndigo · 21/06/2024 16:28

I know Raahh he does absolutely nothing for me.

IceandIndigo · 21/06/2024 16:39

Come on Jack!

kazzaD66 · 21/06/2024 16:50

I hope Jack picks his game up! It's all a bit flat atm.

What on earth are James Ward and Tiafoe talking about for so long ConfusedGrin

Raahh · 21/06/2024 17:21

Come on Jack!

Fizzywinegum · 21/06/2024 17:24

Come on Jack! AC now rapidly rowing back after writing Jack off in the first set!

Raahh · 21/06/2024 17:28

Struff is up in the tie break in the second set in Halle , against Jannik.

JaneJeffer · 21/06/2024 17:34

Can't watch but come on Jack!

Struff got the second set

Please don’t play any more drop shots Jack.

Raahh · 21/06/2024 17:36

Well done Struffy- though I don't mind Jannik winning, obviously, but it's always nice when JLS has a good run.

CrushingOnRubies · 21/06/2024 17:42

Who is this Paul chap? Not come across him before

Comes across as a rather cocky American

Raahh · 21/06/2024 17:54

Why do I get the feeling they won't take this match BBC2 and send it to iplayer at 6pm?

kazzaD66 · 21/06/2024 17:57

Can't disagree with your perception of Paul crushing* *

Think having no idea of who he is, or heard anything about this has made me form an opinion of him purely on what I'm seeing

Raahh · 21/06/2024 18:08

Tommy Paul has been around a while (he's ranked just outside the top 10). He's had some big match wins, but hasn't won many titles.

He reminds me of a shorter Isner.

IceandIndigo · 21/06/2024 18:11

Shame for Jack, he seemed a bit tired towards the end.

Raahh · 21/06/2024 18:11

Very close for Jannick and Struff- JLS now 5-4 up in the 3rd.

CrushingOnRubies · 21/06/2024 18:12

Thanks for the info *Raahh

Yes ** shame that Jack didn't get through

It's probably been a tiring week all round, what with winning in Stuttgart- he's not really had time to process that yet.

He's done really well though his week.

Hope his Boss Bike has been sorted!

I am really not a fan of his Grin. There is something about him that always annoys me. It's probably really unfair!

I just hope he doesn't win the whole thing now!

Raahh · 21/06/2024 18:17

Marvin's getting animated.

IceandIndigo · 21/06/2024 18:18

Come on Struff!
