Grin Open Wide!

Looks like Lorenzo should win this round of the Sexy Dentist contest.

Yes I saw that Raahh. I was a bit surprised as I thought they’d keep going until Wimbledon, but maybe Andy is just sick of Djok’s antics. I wonder if he’s going to coach someone else.

IceandIndigo · 13/05/2025 10:30

Not sure which match to watch. Karen has made a great start against Carlos.

Raahh · 13/05/2025 10:36

Yes, Karen has started well. I'm not sure Carlos is 100% at the moment, and probably taking longer to settle into matches.

Moutet has started well too.

Looks like Carlos has found his feet now.

I don’t know what to think about Moutet. He’s a bit like Sasha Bublik, you never know which version is going to turn up. I think Jack is a bit fatigued, the racquet smash in his previous match was really odd.

Raahh · 13/05/2025 11:02

I might have to go out for a bit. (Otherwise I will end up sitting here all day Grin).

Bit of a surprise in the first set of the Draper/Moutet match

I agree you never know which Moutet is going to turn up - whenever I see him I just think about him arguing with the umpire at the US Open and the umpire was wearing one of those weird umpire cams - he just looked like a tiny angry person shouting up at the umpire Grin

I’m not surprised about the Murray/Djok split - I never really understood it in the first place - they’ll have to come up with something else to talk about at Wimbledon now!

Fizzywinegum · 13/05/2025 11:20

I’m not sure how helpful these video reviews are

IceandIndigo · 13/05/2025 11:44

Hmmm, I wasn’t expecting either of these matches to go to a deciding set.

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 11:45

Jack is looking a bit anxious. Hope he’s ok

Carlos is looking a bit peaky I think (the nose strip doesn’t help)

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 11:56

The tattoo on Moutet says “chaos makes the muse”. Sounds like something you’d have been made to write about in an exam giving examples of why you agree or disagree!

IceandIndigo · 13/05/2025 11:58

Yeah he said he has a cold Fizzy. I can’t imagine playing a tennis match while feeling under the weather, don’t know how they do it.

Ha ha that is so on brand for him.

ChessieFL · 13/05/2025 12:24

Today is Moutet’s turn to chuck his racket around!

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 12:31

Well done Jack

IceandIndigo · 13/05/2025 12:34

Well done Jack.

Fizzywinegum · 13/05/2025 12:34

Well done Jack - he’s not looking great either - the tennis tour is relentless

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 12:35

Bamboozled Grin

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 12:36

Jack’s description of trying to cope with the way Corentin plays is hilarious

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 12:38

Oh Carlos has turned things around

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 12:41

Well done Carlos

IceandIndigo · 13/05/2025 12:43

Well done Carlos. Really well played by Karen as well, I thought he might take it after he broke back in the third set.

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2025 12:43

Why do they keep mixing up Miami and Madrid?!

Raahh · 13/05/2025 12:59

Just got back- Carlos is looking a bit peaky, hope he's ok.
