TENNIS: Gracias Rafa

[JaneJeffer]

Have just got in from dropping dd2 at school and ( very carefully) walking the dog. Go Jacob and Nishesh!

That would make me very happy

I am glad Jacob is doing well- I was reading he was getting a lot of messages on instagram when the draw was announced. So he deleted it. Definitely the right thing to do when dealing with an idiot like Kyrgios and his bonkers fans.

Just seen that Grigor is playing lucky loser Passaro- Foggy must have with withdrawn.

No doubt Nick will be getting his injury excuses ready if he does lose this match

He's doing a lot of side- clutching Fizzy . (Watching Nick is the lesser of 2 evils- can't stand gurning Djok, and Jacob is doing well).

Nick is basically unfit anyway and arrogantly thought he could wing it with aces. Because he's box office and the saviour of tennis, etc etc.

His kit is also awful.

I'm not ready for Nick yet Raahh - although I did see a bit of his kit and yes it is awful

Djok has just gone full on Beelzebub - I really hope that he loses

DH did jokingly say I would still be in bed watching tennis when he returns from work - he might have a point!

I am back watching Carlos. I can’t bear Kyrgios, I’d rather watch Djok and that’s saying something!

Just saw that Nishesh is cramping, that’s a shame. I’m sure we’ll be seeing more of him though.

Fortunately, it looks like we wont have to put up with Nick for much longer, in singles at least- unless he pulls off a miracle recovery.

Although Jacob has had a few double faults in the last couple of games. I don't know if the crowd are starting to get to get to him.

May have jinxed Jacob.

Well done Carlos.

I've just switched over in the hopes that I would get to see Kyrgios lose but he seems to be having a resurgence

It looks as if Grigor has retired from his match

Poor Grigor- that was a bit of an ill -fated match , what with Fabio not playing at the start.

Come on Jacob! Don't let him back in!

Somehow I have got French commentary on the Goffin match. It's not going well for him.

Whoop! Well done Jacob,

Well done Jacob - well done to those 2 Scottish women in the crowd - poor from the Australian crowd

It is funny to listen to him, and his lack of Scottish accent

That was a strange accent

How many times could Mac mention Kyrgios in that interview?

Good lad. Off you fuck Nick

I suppose I ought to do something useful now - I'm guessing that Djok will win his match so don't need to watch that

Goffin is trying to make a comeback

Well done Jacob!

That’s a shame for Grigor, hope he’s ok.
