TENNIS thread - It's Roland Garros - Finals weekend. Then onwards to the green stuff- and we don't mean a burnt cactus!

[Raahh]

Rachel has clearly never watched a slam in her life, if she didn't know about all gthe kerfuffle before (some) finals.

I hate TNT

I like the Massey Ferguson red

Oh poor Matteo, hope he’ll be better for Wimbledon

So many injuries at the moment, Jane. It's always a difficult bit of the season.

They are very much pushing Mensik, Annabel was gushing about him earlier. Not really fussed at all that he was playing Norris .

Jannik is playing doubles with Lorenzo Sonego over in Halle and they have won the frist set- so , so far, at least 2 Italians are managing to keep the faith.

Annabel is a proper tennis fan and can’t fake enthusiasm she doesn’t feel.

Exactly
it was left to John Lloyd to steer the conversation to Cam- but she still managed to get it back to Jakub.

To me O’Connell looks like an actor playing a tennis player. I don’t know what it is.

I think Holger was doing better when I wasn’t watching!

It's a bit like the ATP audition tapes, Jane- he's just an Aussie actor playing at being Chris O' Connell.

The rest of the time he does lager adverts and a bit of 'modeling'.

Oh look I used to work way over there

I think so

Talking of the ATP audition tape, I keep watching the Casper one. It cheers me up every morning.

If he doesn't turn up to Wimbledon in the wig, complete with tag, I think I will be disappointed.

Casper was my favourite

Holger has woken up again now.

Come on Holger.

Yikes

Phew!
Well done Holger.

Well done Holger!

I can’t watch Queens without thinking of Nalbandian! It’s strange without the lines people.

Pippa sounds unnervingly like Rachel Stringer.

That really was a bonkers final.

It does seem very wrong without the lines judges.

Nice to hear some positivity about Holger

He's only 22, John. Plenty of time for him to win a slam. Have they already written him off?

That stand is so steep

Kiss of death for Jakub?
