Carlos is from the same area in Murcia as my family so we've been watching his star rise for longer than most.

His family are truly humble and appreciate everything they have in life.

I'm looking forward to his youngest brothers rise over the next few years. He's supposed to have double the talent of Carlitos

I’m going to miss the Wimbledon music until next year

If that's the case, drivinmecrazy it sounds like Spanish tennis is in very good shape for the future!

The montage to Barbra Streisand was amazing
Such an iconic song and well put together

I know, it's always sad when I hear it for the last time.

We didn't get to see the whole walk around with Carlos, Sadand the balcony and stuff!

AC rambling on about the ivy Hmm

I agree Nick is surprisingly good at commentary - don't think he's in the same league as Djok though as a player Hmm

I feel a bit deflated now - maybe more Pimms is needed!

Alcaraz's family do all seem like good human people

I've got the walk on Premier Sports so it might be on iplayer or RB?

It moved to BBC2 (I was watching the wheelchair tennis Grin).

Tomorrow is going to be weird, no tennis on. Not sure what I'll do with myself.

Fizzywinegum · 14/07/2024 17:22

He is just so likeable - amazing that he's only 21

Fizzywinegum · 14/07/2024 17:23

AC's hoping that he'll be back next year!

ChessieFL · 14/07/2024 17:24

When Carlos was looking at his name on the board, Clare started saying something about Carlos having achieved something Rafa never did, but Tim interrupted her before she could say what that was! Wonder what she was about to say?

JaneJeffer · 14/07/2024 17:25

Consecutive titles no doubt Chessie they're obsessed with it!

He has defended the Wimbledon title. They have been a bit obsessed with that(and the fact Rafa never did it).

X post Jane Grin

Probably. I was just annoyed that Tim clearly thought whatever he had to say was worth interrupting Clare for (it wasn’t)

My post Wimbledon blues have started to kick in already 😢
