New thread

Pfft

Ugh that face

It's a miracle

Goosebumps. Are you stupid? Yes you are.

I know - the 'goosebumps' comment made me .

At least we know Jannik can beat him.

Forza Jannik.

Colin talks a lot of shite

I've switched away from the interview because he will just annoy me

Nope, I don't want to hear from him, thanks.

🥕 FTW

The Mirror Crack'd on BBC2 with a stellar cast

I've just switched to this to- and Murder on the Orient Express (Albert Finney version) is on after it- which has been on umpteen times already this year (and I have recorded)- but I will probably watch it anyway .

Jannik looking good against Djok - 7-6 and 4-1 up in the second set - I can only cope with watching Djok when it looks as if he's going to lose

Roger and Carlos having a good old chinwag in the audience

Well done Jannik!

I missed it,because I didn't realise it was on so early- andread the times wrong .

Well done Jannik!

Djok still hasn't won a tour level title this year- that will annoy him (although he's won the Olympic medal , but that doesn't count ). He's only got Paris left to go, before the WTFs- and he could still fail to qualify for that if some players behind him do well in the next couple of weeks (ADM , Dimitrov, Stef could qualify if they do well in the next 2/3 tournaments- and they are behind him). He doesn't have a slam win to fall back on.

Didn't see the final but happy with the result

I've just watched the end of the Sabalenka match- because of course that was on at the same time.

A bloke drove the car onto the court at the end, always a bit worried when they do that .

There's a song about Sabalenka?

Trophy presentation in Wuhan , sounds like Star Wars.

Apparently- I couldn't hear it .

Ok, interesting flowery wreath thing.
The runner up trophy is a big tray.

Ooh- music has gone all rocky.

Poor bloke - he's got to translate all that speech, if he can remember it all .

The runner up trophy looks like a very dangerous frisbee! Not sure about the flowered wreaths.

That other guy that keeps giving her directions
Sabalenka please step forward to the letters of Wuhan
Sabalenka please look upstairs
