TENNIS thread- Roland Garros continues... Allez!

[Raahh]

Caught me by surprise the end of the thread!

I saw a lovely post Rafa had written, with pictures of him and Richard through the years. It's clear how very well respected and well loved he is. Petch was just so rude, and dismissive- and it set the tone really, since TNT couldn't even be bothered to then show the tribute.

Yeah I saw that Raahh and Gael having a cuddle with him in the locker room was lovely too

I think she will have opportunity to watch a lot of tennis :)

I would get totally distracted by the tennis and forget to do any work

Jane that would be me.

Unless my job was to just stand and watch. I could do that

Come on Lore!

I like Navone too- but I really want to see Lorenzo into the next round.

oof- that was a bad miss.

Oh no, the Holger match has started now.

Hopefully Lorenzo has got this match sorted.

Looking very good for Lorenzo now.

and Halys has taken the first set. Not quite as easily as he did at Wimbleodon.

Grr come on Holger!

Well done Lore.

Navone is good though.

Well done Lore

He’s so pretty

How dare he suggest that the crowd doesn’t love Holger

See!

All square, that's good. Come on Holger.

1 set all and going with serve in the Karen/TP match. Fingers crossed for Karen.

Iga has started off in Iga style. I'm not sure Cristian will have many answers for her. I could be wrong.

If she wins this, there is a potential next round with Jelena- and we know how much she loves playing Jelena (but they havde never met at RG).

Come on Holger

Stop trying that shot. It’s not working!

Crowd are on his side even though he’s playing a French man

That’s better

Er- no- TP /Karen are going into a 4th set , not a 5th.

Come on, people, this is literally your only job.

(Annoyingly it is TP with the 2-1 advantage).

Damn
