New thread.

Can I join? Watching as restricted atm due to fractured shoulder. Great play by Carlos!

Ouch! That doesn't sound good LIZS.

Thanks , not great. Waiting to see if it needs pinning. Lots of painkillers and rest.

Vamos!

Please.

It's fine he's made of rubber

Feck it

Grr

The crowd are really getting on my nerves.

But they have been since the start of the tournament.

Learn when to shut up!

Looks like Tim's prediction of Djok in 4 , might be right.

And he is never right.

Damn.

Oh bugger!! 😢😢😢

Well that’s a shame.

Everyone was not hoping for that!

No Jane. They were not.

Aww lovely Rafa on the walkway

The face of nightmares

Oh, I was hoping he wasn't bothering with talking.

I'm off.

Great win by Djokovic. One for the history books.

What's the call out to Sascha for?

Nice of Andy to go find Carlos (probably didn't want to listen to the interview either)

In Sascha's interview, he said something about this match being 'boring' (joking obviously) and the main event was really his match against Tommy Paul.
Jane- (not that I'm listening to him )

aah I see. Nice one Sascha, get inside his head nice and early

I think it was because he was asked about playing during the day in the heat, and he would have preferred the evening session- but the other 'boring' match up was picked instead .

Djok doesn't like banter unless he's dishing it out

No, bit like noise on court, and MTO distractions.

It's ok when it's not him that's being distracted.
