I might get it on a t-shirt. We could start a trend.

As for Taylor- what a noodle. He needs to be careful, going from dark to blonde and back again in a couple of weeks, that's not easy. He won't have any hair left soon.

(Unless the blond was a wig).

Raahh · 08/11/2024 12:06

I like the group ATP (miss Stef in his poncho though Grin). Daniil looks like someone made him laugh.

Maybe standing Sascha next to Carlos on the step wasn't so great- makes Carlos look really short- and even younger than he is. Grin

Andrey was walking in looking like a model until he realised everyone was gawping at him and got completely awkward Grin

Aww, Andrey.

Jannik remembered his Gucci training and looked very model like in the picture.

I don't think AdM suits a double breasted jacket. It looked too big. Grin

Alex looked like a spiv Grin

Yes! He was missing a hat- and was definitely wearing spats.

Raahh · 08/11/2024 13:09

(Don't actually know about the spats, btw, can't see his feet- but he should be!).

JaneJeffer · 08/11/2024 13:33

He could borrow Daniil's horrible tennis shoes

Raahh · 08/11/2024 13:41

Jane oh yes! Grin That would work!

I think I liked the 'Roger era' of all of them in matching dark tuxedos. Although the year they were all hanging around on a tube train was a bit odd.

IceandIndigo · 08/11/2024 14:52

That photo…I just can’t believe that none of them can find a suit jacket that fits properly, even Jannik who is sponsored by Gucci ffs. And why didn’t Taylor iron his trousers, and take his phone out of his pocket?!

Sorry about the maths Grin

They do mostly look like they took pot lock on the jackets from the dressing up box.

You are forgiven on the maths. This time Grin.

Loved the press conference with Sascha and Carlos doing all the talking and RuRu doing this

Just watched the women walk in for the first semi final match- the mascot kids appeared to be dressed as airline pilots.

JaneJeffer · 08/11/2024 15:13

I got distracted by the really tall Arab guy and didn't even notice the kids!

This team is definitely having all the fun

RuRu look drunk Grin

I am so glad Djok isn't there. It's a 'young' group this year- all under 30 I think , for the first time in ages. They don't want him trying to cramp their style.

(Rafa doesn't count , obviously, he's not as annoying).

JaneJeffer · 08/11/2024 15:21

There was a bit of messing with Sascha because he's the old one now Grin

OP posts:
Raahh · 08/11/2024 15:24

Yes, I think he's the oldest there, and Daniil the oldest of the 8.

Raahh · 08/11/2024 15:31

Come on Barbora! Don't want Tim to start waffling on about your right to be there again.

Fizzywinegum · 08/11/2024 16:01

RuRu Grin - they're probably all as relieved as everyone that Djok's not there!

I'm watching the women's semis now that there is no maths involved!

I think I also saw the kid mascots dressed up as pilots Raahh - I'm off my strong meds now so assumed I wasn't hallucinatingGrin

I don't think that Roger would have worn that style of jacket - everyone's looks too big apart from Casper's which is too small!

Raahh · 08/11/2024 16:06

Fizzy no, you were not hallucinating.

Casper's jacket looks too short, doesn't it? All that money between them, probably a bunch of designers, and they mght as well have just gone to a charity shop.

Maybe they did. Grin

Raahh · 08/11/2024 16:09

It isn't going well for Barbora, but she did say the other day that Qinwen beat her last time they met - and although it was a close match, I think even then Barbora could see she was out played a bit. Very nervy - and far too many double faults.

Zheng has certainly been one of the rising stars of the year.

But come on Barbora! Make a match of it.

Fizzywinegum · 08/11/2024 16:13

Yes Zheng has had a good year - think Tim could be proven right annoyingly

Poor Cam's been bumped off the main channel - Sky couldn't even be bothered to show match point
