TENNIS: Wimbledon continued - I think we’re on Day 4!

New thread - Hope everyone finds this 🎾

Well done Ben.

I hate "see ball, hit ball"

Yes Tim

Thsi tie break is endless

Bit of Google would tell Tim it was Isner/Mahut in 2010

Well done Sascha! Torturous tiebreak

That was the longest match but they didn't have final set tiebreak back then

Well done Sascha.

And RBA is serving for the match against Foggy.

Well done RBA!

Looks like I'm losing the telly to football now

Apparently there's rugby on too

Come on Holger!

Holger definitely takes after Rafa when it comes to getting into his stride!

Jane Holger in a bit of bother. So many French players around this year- and Mpetshi Perricard is doing well, against Ruusuvuori.

Yes, Rafa does tend to take time to get going sometimes . Which can be a bit nerve wracking.

Halys is very wolverine like

Fabrice!

Looks like Svitolina has taken the first set against Jabeur. Will be very disappointing for Ons if she loses this early on.

Nooooo! It's raining!

The winner of the Medvedev match is scheduled to play Dimitrov tomorrow, so they really need to get that match played. There are probably other matches due held over from ysterday that will have their next round tomorrow too.

Scheduling going well at Wimbledon this year.

I had to abandon Holger because of the football. I see he was making headways in the second set when the rain stopped play. Commentators were talking shite about him as usual saying he thinks he should be playing on Centre Court but is out on Court 18 again. I don't recall him saying he should be playing on Centre! I'm glad he's on Court 18 so much because it's one of the premier sport RB courts so I get to see him when there's no football on!

Jane yes I heard the rubbish about court 18. Erm-he's seeded in the top 10. He probably does think he has more right to be on a show court than some of the non -seeded players who have been put on there (and we know why that is) but no, I'm not aware he's actually said anything. They have an issue with him seeing himself as a future number 1, or a part of a future 'Big 3'. Well- why not? what 's the point of playing if he's just there to make up the numbers?

And Iga in a bit of bother. Which is a turn up. Or maybe not- last year was the first she got past the 3rd round at Wimbledon, she's still not that comfortable on grass.

16 years ago today we were all nervous wrecks

Ahh, Rafa.

Glenn Close still as scary as ever
