TENNIS: Hard court season continues. Scream if you want to go faster.

[JaneJeffer]

oh crap.

I think it's best of 3.

In the old style Davis Cup format, it was best of 5.

Oh darn it.

Botic, you were mean to be nervous.

Eek!

It's hard to tell how Botic is feeling but it must be strange for him

Come on Rafa!

Yes, I'm still in the mindset of 5 sets for Davis Cup. But I bet it's been reduced to 3 because we all have the attention span of a gnat
We're not doing great in the BJK Cup either. A set and a break down.

Come on Rafa!

Here for the last hurrah... 😭

The look on Rafa's face when they were playing the national anthem... my lip was wobbling too.

Argh!

Didn't the Dutch get the memo?!?!?! I mean, who actually wants Rafa to lose????

Oh dear

Vamos

Come on now Rafa.

VAMOS!

Bloody hell! What a final point to get the game!

GB lost the doubles in straight sets!

These adverts are annoying!

And now we've missed the first point of the next game

This is not going well

No it's not Ice

I get why Rafa wanted to play, but coming into this with no match practice was never going to go well.

Maybe he knew he's run out of chances for the big farewell- and he wasn't going to be allowed to go quietly

VAMOS Rafa!!

Oof- Vamos

Not sure that's the best prep for his match Carlos standing watching this!

Bugger!

Sigh.

Not to be. I guess we should have learnt by now not to expect fairy tale endings.

Yes I hope it doesn't affect Carlos too much kazza

Think I might have that glass of wine now

Me too, let’s raise a glass to Rafa
