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

[Fizzywinegum]

New thread

I’m watching Stan the Man now - not sure where all these Brits have been hiding - Billy’arris, Charlie Broom and Arthur Fery - they do all sound as if they’re from the East End!

Arthur Fery is quite diminutive

Jordan Thompson is having a bit of a battle - he lost the first two sets and now into a fifth

Oh, I like Jordan- come- on Porntache!

I wonder if a lot of these new British players were playing in the Boys competition before this year?

oof- now, now Matteo- you don't want to go to 5 sets.

(I do like Marton, if he was playing someone else).

Or all in their eighties!

What's happening?

I don't think they are all really that 'new'- Billy Harris is 29, and Charlie Broom is 26- they just haven't had any real success in big events. Arthur Fery I think has French parents and has gone down the US college route.

A couple of them are over 25

Matteo is having back problems

Oh no Matteo

More stripping for Chessie but the chair might be in the way?

God the physio is really digging into his back, looks painful

I just turned over to see Matteo stripping

Is that woman in the blue top Chessie?

She was telling someone to get out of the way while trying to take a photo!

Poor Matteo - even the umpire looks sad

Has she got binoculars Fizzy?

Oh dear- much as I like seeing Matteo strip off, I don't like him being injured. . I think his shoulder his affecting his serve?

The difference is that nobody cares about Djokovic

Quite.

She was probably trying to look like she wasn't really looking

Well done Stan

Well done Stan the Man! I’m exhausted already - don’t know how the players are feeling

It's hard work, isn't it. Fizzy?

(and I've barely moved since AO in January).
