TENNIS: Wimbledon Quarterfinals

[JaneJeffer]

Raahh - if you are Clare, stop moving channels!!

It's all gone downhill since Sue left.

Even (our) Boris got himself trussed up in a suit, even though he always looked red faced and uncomfortable .
For a tournament that would previously not even let players where dark underwear, I am surprised that they don't have rules for the media/presenters too, regarding dress codes.

They probably do, and he ignores them.

<hides remote>

Barbora is still playing in her doubles match.

Rishi asks stupid questions.

I can't believe I'm about to say something nice about Nick Kyrgios, but he is actually a decent commentator. He should stick to that and never return to playing.

Very happy for Musetti's victory, and I also think he has a better (if very very slim) chance in the semis than Fritz whose h2h with Djoko is 0-9.

BTW why do people on here dislike Djokovic (who admittedly is a bit of a cartoon villain) but seem to like Zverev (who is an actual villain and all-around horrible person)? Seems weird.

Wonder if Emma’s watching …

Rishi does ask dumb questions - I’m glad that Barbora was like well I don’t know what it would be like to play Rybakina in the semis

Thought I was going to have to provide taxi service for DH and DS2 to watch the footy but they’ve got a lift - so I can watch more tennis - yay!

Forget Wednesday's are bell practice night at Wimbledon

Kyrigos does admittedly come across as knowledgeable about tennis

Sadly, Barbora and Laura have lost- but they never gave up.

Rishi's question to Barbora was so stupid- and rude- it's not like she isn't a (multiple) slam champion in her own right.

When Rishi is mentioned on this thread I immediately think our ex pm has already got a job at Wimbledon...

Sorry- I probably need to clarify- the way we do with (our) Boris.

What is it with tennis and politician crossovers.

Just put Skupsi and Krawczyk on and it's bloody AC again! He's been everywhere today

Talking of being everywhere has reminded me of the opposite. Has anyone seen Mo or Aurelie at Wimbledon

Raahh if you put boris in a tennis context I'd know exactly who you mean. And when BJ came on to the scene it was almost the opposite

Watching a bit of Clijsters/Hingis vs Robson/Hantuchova on Court 18, whilst they close the roof on No1 Court.

I've seen Aurelie but not Mo (or Fergus)

I've seen Fergus but only on outside courts!

DD and I are off to Wimbledon tomorrow to see the ladies semi finals (and also see as much other tennis as we can).

Have a lovely day Miranda - photos welcome!

Have a great time Miranda - I think the weather forecast is looking good for tomorrow (Feli is on one of the outside courts if you’re interested)

I’m going today with my son. Men’s doubles semi finals.

Have a good day Miranda and SpeckledyHen!

Have a great day Miranda and SpeckledyHen .
hopefully the weather is good.
Enjoy!

We have another morning of monsoon rain. Lovely

Have fun SpeckledyHen**

I am firmly plonked in front of BBC1 today having missed most of yesterday.
At the moment - Carol Kirkwood sporting leopard print. And Marion Bartoli! 🥰

I’m watching the invitation doubles on iPlayer - Bahrami’s playing and he’s always entertaining.
