Tennis: Road to Turin, anyone seen Rafa?

Noooo Holger.

He seems like a lovely lad but we don't need another Sampras!

He needs some kind of nickname as well because his name is a bit of a mouthful for any supporters

I’m sure GMP is lovely, but his tennis bores me honestly. I really don’t need to see him play Ben, it will just be two big servers trading bombs.

I've just seen which umpire it is so I expect a Holger meltdown before this set is over

No, we really, really don't!

Jane
He's been pretty restrained up to now.

I've said before that around here, GMP is Greater Manchester Police, so I find it a bit odd to type that really .

But it's a lot shorter than his name.

Oh no

GMP is also Good Manufacturing Practice.

Come on Holger!

ADM lost the first set- I was hoping he would win, only because of slim WTF qualification hopes, and ousting Djok from the running (if he wins the title, and does well in Paris).

But that is starting to look unlikely.

Come on Holger!

Our electricity randomly went off for a few seconds

Had a few problems getting the red button to realise it was back

Come on Holger!

Blast! Well done GMP. Not a very friendly handshake

What's all the noise about?

Can't say that was too enjoyable to watch

Looks like Karen has this wrapped up

Well done Gio (?) He has a wild card to Paris, I feel like he could do some damage.

Haha, announcing to the crowd in Basel that he prefers Rafa to Roger

Alex has decided he ain't leaving

How to make friends...

Well done Karen.

At least ADM is smiling.

Well done Karen
