Tennis: Come on Dan! Or ABD!!

[kazzaD66]

Don't know if this will work, but the old thread is complete!

Oh no, I've been score watching on BBC Sport website but it's clearly a few minutes behind! Apparently, he had a match point on Oda's serve? So did Alfie then get broken when he served for the match at 5-4?

Oh no -5-5 . Don't get stressed Alfie.

kazza yes, he was very ahead, and now Oda has pulled it back. Alfie will be gutted if he throws loses it again.

Thank you for your witterings Raahh
You're* *not alone, it's just I don't have Sky or Eurosport or whoever is broadcasting it!

Oda is getting very confident now , i think Alfie is feeling a lost- 0-40 down serving to level at 6-6.

It's a big shame, he seemed to have it in the bag.

It's on Channel 4, kazza .

And Oda has taken it.

Poor Alfie.

Oda's wheels have come off!

Oh, of course it is! My bloody brain is still not working properly. I was thinking of the US Open not being on terrestrial tv.

Alfie looks pretty upset, but hopefully it won't get him down too much.

Oh, poor Alfie!
Obviously, his wheels came off metaphorically in the last few games!!!!

That is the sort of thing I do.

I missed a week of AO once, because I forgot I had Eurosport

I missed all that.

I've put the men's doubles on now

I missed the start of the doubles- I have a soft spot for Porntache, so would like him to win, losing the Wimbledon final (which was so close) really hit him hard.

I'm wondering how a German is called Kevin 🤔

It sounds wrong, doesn't it?

Unfortunately, ever since the Olympics and the breakdancing I associate the Aussie green 'kit' with Raygun, and now I want Jordan to breakdance.

The US crowd would probably appreciate that.

Well I just googled Kevin Germany and found this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevinismus. I know Kevin has a weird reputation in England too but here it's just a nice Irish name

The Ossssies pronunciation is doing my head in! If you can't say it properly just say Australians!

Wow. I would never have thought of Kevin like that. It's not bad!

Maybe it's because I grew up with so many. It's just a very 70s name to me. (Much like my own!).

The description of Kevin as "trendy and exotic sounding" is very funny

My name is always on those names you hate threads

My name is just ubiquitously 1971. I don't like it, and always shorten it. Except my mother never does, and that annoys me.

I was never bothered about being one of at least 3 in every class at school though. It was nice to be anonymous .

Getting nervous serving for the match is becoming a thing today.

I had the same Raahh. There were 10 girls in my uni halls corridor, and 3 of us had the same name!

Sad for Alfie especially as he go so close.

Not sure if I’m going to watch the women’s final later - would like to but I’ll probably only stay awake for the beginning!

There’s a British girl doing well in the girls’ final so fingers crossed for her.

Well done Jordan and Max
