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.

Robbie Koenig. He comes out with all sorts of puns and sayings. He’s on Sky sometimes. I like him because he just loves tennis and knows everything about everyone!

The dentist is just us joking about the kits some of them are wearing that look like dentist outfits.

Thanks @JaneJeffer

I am watching the players hitting golf balls to a pitch/hole in the middle of some water. Casper is obviously good at golf - and came close a few times.

Jess Pegula definitely plays more than she lets on. She was the only one whose ball didn't roll off . (after several attempts ).

I saw a video where Alex and Katie pranked some of the players by putting a very talkative Irish man in their cars. Jasmine asked her coach in Italian how do you switch this guy off

I do love the videos- the players are all pretty good sports. I like how they are mixing up the players that they are using in them now too.

It really shows their true personalities

Yes, I saw those videos. Taylor was really trying hard to ignore him but he kept tapping his leg to get his attention.

Just watched one where you drop a racquet and ball together, grab the racquet on the bounce and hit the ball for a serve. Obviously very difficult but Demon seemed to do it ok.

I've just watched the taxi one.

'The ice cream from the milk of the Bulls'

I think Taylor wanted to kill Sean

Mirra is so cute

Not sure who will win this match.

I'm not sure I can cope with a lengthy Aryna screaming match.

I can barely hear Naomi but if I raise the volume Aryna will deafen me

Jane that is the exact problem I'm having.

If Jonathan is doing this final, does that mean someone else will do tomorrow (fingers crossed).

God I hope so

This has got a bit more interesting. I was about to give up. I'm not that enthused by women's matches at the best of tmes, but between the noise and the one-sidedness it was getting boring.

But at least Coco is clawing it back.

I think 'captivating' is over -egging it, Jonathan.

Every time they go to chat court side, the Dj seems to get louder

I’m not concentrating very well. I’ve been watching Tennis TV clips of Casper speaking about his mental health problems and Lore’s coach chatting about his “beautiful boy”.

He’s probably doing it on purpose

That sounds a lot more interesting than this, really.

Sorry to Coco and Aryna, but my mind has gone walkabout.

Now it’s getting interesting

Dani got the best seat in the house

This is getting better,

Is the Miami /Madrid double actually a 'thing' Jonathan? You made that up. It's just 2 tournaments. That begin with the same letter and aren't even on the same surface.

That ball girl’s hair is class!
