TENNIS: Get the Pimms ready - it’s nearly Wimbledon time!

New thread

Stan has won his first set, Go Stan!

I just had to switch over - Lajal’s hair is amazing!

The Ultra HD is making my eyes hurt it’s so bright!

So fed up with the BBC already, way too much fillers and not enough tennis. I should not have to keep switching over during a match because they've put one match on for 10 minutes, then move to Centre Court for more bloody fillers.

OMG Lajal's hair

Nice view Chessie

OMG love his hair. But agree the stripey grass on the UHD is hurting my eyes

It is very bright xxSideshowAuntSallyxx

Matteo has just broken - there’s too much tennis on (shouldn’t complain really!)

Is his hair a tribute to the trophy?

Fergus has a lot of noise to deal with

Tiafoe is now 2 sets all - well done , Big man.

Does look like a pineapple.

I see Shapovalov has beaten Jarry

Tim has gone back to saying Alcarath grr

Grrrr ... Miss I Rule the Office deemed the blooming football suitable viewing in the office but not tennis.

I can't keep my eyes off Lajal's hair

Second set Matteo.

Just turned on. Caught a summary by presenter on BBC1. Turned straight over to BBc2 because she couldn’t read the autocue, and said ‘um’ several times. Sorry, wasn’t impressed.

That would be Isa then Springwatch123 - She’s really not very good at live presenting - way too many ums and not really knowing what’s going on - bring back Sue!

I saw this posted somewhere else

I like Isa when she does the cricket but I miss Sue 😢.

I d like to see a bit of the other Matteo and Big Foe but Sky is playing up

Robbie's got a rival then

Isa is good on the cricket but I don’t think they really understands tennis - not sure why they’re sticking with her

Think since they lost Sue they need someone to do the daytime.

Martina would have been great, or just let Annabel Croft do it.

Well done Tiafoe.

And Daria Kasatkina doesn't seem to be suffering after winning at the weekend and having to play again so soon- won the first set, and 5-0 up in the second in her first round match.

Yes I like Annabel - Gigi Salmon is good as well but not sure if she’s tied to Sky now?

Big Foe is through - he did look as if he was limping a bit when I was watching him though

I do like Big Foe. Been following him on Instagram since Wimbledon a couple of years back. Seems a decent fellow.

Come on Matteo.

Daniil seems to be doing ok.

Looks like Carlos has had a tough opening set against the Pineapple headed man.

Ooh- Stan is 2 sets up now- go Stan!
