TENNIS thread- Nearly time to say 'Adios' to Madrid, but there are plenty of matches still to get our teeth into...

[Raahh]

Open Wide!

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

Ahh that little mascot didn’t quite know what was going on when Diana Shnaider got hold of his hand

Good start for Jasmine.

Hubi and Jakub are both in the same kit- which is a bit confusing. Though Hubi wears his hat the right way, and Jakub, back to front.

And Hubi has a knee brace.

I look forward to seeing the back of that adidas kit.

Ice it is really dull. And becoming an annoying colour combination.

Roll on Wimbledon whites

(But not dentist uniform whites )

Jasmine seems to be in trouble.

Identical scores in the matches now.

Jasmine threw away a sizeable lead , should have been well into the second set by now.

But she has a break, so that's a start.

Jakub and Hubi could be heading for a tie break, par for the course in Hubi matches.

A break she managed to lose, and now she's down in the tie break. bit up and down for Jasmine today.

Oh dear- Jasmine is going to wonder what happened to that set.

But well done to Hubi finally winning the first set in his match.

I don't know if there's a problem, but the wheels really do seem to have come off for Jasmine since being 4-0 up in the first set. All been down hill since then really.

The Lore/Daniil match has started now too. Too much to watch!

And the rain is starting.

The dog heard whoever is whistling in the crowd and rushed out the back door to see who was calling him 😂

Looks like the rain delay helped Jasmine a bit. Whether it's enough to save the match, I don't know.

Diana is crying 🥹

Looks like the rain delay helped Jasmine a bit. Whether it's enough to save the match, I don't know.

But it's one set all .

Not sure why that posted twice.

It’s so hard to post what you’re actually trying to on here lately!

They seem to be trading breaks from what I can see in the Lore/Daniil match.

Jasmine is making lunch

Watching Mussetti vs Medvev as I haven't see them play yet. Great atmosphere and some cracking tennis.

Lore has taken the first set - he’s added a sleeve to his sexy dentist outfit - they seem to be the in thing these days

I'm trying to watch 3 matches at once.

A lot seems to be happening Raahh - nothing seems to happen at the beginning of these long tournaments and then everyone seems to be playing at once

Is that Diana’s mom. She doesn’t seem to appreciate whatever is being said!

Fizzy it's odd, I was thinking some players seem to be playing every day, and others are getting a day off. I don't see the point in the extended tournaments if there are no rest days in between matches. No point having a week off at the start.
