Tennis: Come on Dan! Or ABD!!

[kazzaD66]

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

Hurrah - great news about Djok - well done Alex - I'll say it even if Djok didn't

Come on Dan!

You can do the new threads every time kazza

Shame Lorenzo lost but Djok did too and that's what is most important!

it is a shame about Lorenzo, I was willing him to win the 4th set, it was close.

He's not had a bad summer.

But yay- we can enjoy the next week, Djok -free

I didn't realise Djok had lost until DD came back home from a night out and at a friend's house about 30 min ago!

I've made it to the Rafa Nadal open - just watching some doubles - they're playing bloody sweet Caroline

Oh blimey, Fizzy . It gets everywhere! Hope you are enjoying it. (The tennis, I mean!)

Start singing 'Champs Elysee' really loudly and see what happens ....

The disguise worked then fizzy
Enjoy* *the tennis. Who's playing?

No sign of Rafa though!

The doubles went to a third set tiebreak thingy

I've not really heard of the people who are playing but hoping they will be stars of the future!

Matteo Gigante from Italy is playing next - I'm hoping for big things from him

Oh I bet you are 😅

<snort>

Oh, it's raining in New York.

Emma has found Feli again

I'm a bit confused- the roof is closing on Grandstand, but they are outside playing on court 17.

Gigi is funny . She loves winding Tim up.

First set to Jasmine- Julia Putinseva is not happy at all.

Love Gigi's story about the woman asking her "is this where the men are playing?"

having said that, I was quite enjoying watching the Jasmine match, thanks, Sky- and it's not 'The Jack Draper Stadium' as it was called earlier and his match hasn't even bloody started yet- why are they wasting all this time talking???

I'm sure Jack would hate all this discussion about him. He's not one to blow his own trumpet.

Marion is friends with all the best people eh?

Well, she got her fashion tips from Serena.

Gigante came good in the end!

Had a US open burger in Rafa's cafe - it seemed the safest bet - the other slam burgers had weird ingredients like egg, beetroot and pineapple (Australian open) and the Wimbledon burger had ox tail and Worcestershire sauce

All in all it was a good experience (apart from sweet Caroline) - the tennis complex is v impressive (sort of hoped that I'd at least see uncle Toni though) and it was good to see some live tennis

Lovely photos. Hope Gigante lived up to his name

I feel hungry now
