TENNIS thread- Rome is coming to an end and it's nearly time to pack for Paris!

[Raahh]

Meanwhile , it's not looking good for Casper, but Jannik is looking very solid

( most annoying is the fact Tommy Paul is through to the semi final already. )

Forza!

Forza! Flavio!

And nice from andrey at the end.

Well done Flavio.

Well done Flávio. DH is itching to get the telly for F1 so I might miss the presentation

They really are getting over excited.

By next week, they will have forgotten Cobolli exists.
Poor Marin plays him in the first round at RG.

Hubi has won the first set against Djok. Come on Hubi!

I love Flávio interviews

Flavio is one of the only ones who makes the ON kit look good.

Now they’re making it sound like he’s been playing badly all year when it’s just that others were playing better

Hope Andrey is ok

Andrey played a lot better in the second set- seemed to have had a word with himself off court after the first set.

But well deserved win.

Aww- Otti is much cuter than Goody the Scary dragon -fish, got to say.

It was all a bit 'Domi Thiem, who?' really , like they 've just discovered him- all by themselves. .

She’s very long winded

She said a lot more than just that, in all that German she just said.

The Mascot's polite clapping is making me laugh.

A Bavarian style tankard is a bit more useful than another medal or a plate, I suppose.

Nice speech, Andrey.

I think they changed the trophy last year, because I've just seen a picture of Fils with the headless one last year- I must have just not noticed.

Elena has won in Strasbourg. I feel sorry for Liudmila but the third seems to have been a set too far for her

That's a same Jane - although Elena has been having a fairly rough year on and off court, so this may help her a bit.

I don't want to watch Djok- but come on Hubi!!

(I've kind of got it on in the back ground-each time I look, I see Djok's face, and it puts me off

Come on Hubi- break him!

Oh rubbish.

Tie break. Time to hit the aces, Hubi.

pfft.

Grrr,

Feck it
