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

Probably Jane- they have really been bigging him up.

Don't mention Strictly to AC, Clare.

Good man Andrew. No Alcarathing for you any more

John has started calling Norrie - Noor-ee.

It's bugging me.

ooh- well done Jakub- thought Norris was going to sneak the tie break.

It was 5-2 to Norris and next time I looked he had lost it!

looks like I jinxed Jannik and Lorenzo who lost the doubles in halle- but a good effort. Hopefully they will do better in singles, but at least it's practice on grass.

Ah, AC, you never disappoint.
I knew we would get the 'Cameron Norrie background story ' eventually.

AC is so good at doing the concise Norris bio

Jakub's lost it a bit this set.

Come on Jakub.

ADF’s wedding looked lovely. Can’t see the socks

MN obviously disagrees

Aah congratulations Mr & Mrs ADF!

AC telling us that we won’t have heard of Mensik - I don’t think he watches any tennis outside of Queens and Wimbledon

Maybe John has been having a lot of sushi and is thinking of Nori seaweed - he’s always been NORRIE! (or Norris )

It is one of the reasons I hate listening to the commentary at Queen's (and Wimbledon , to an extent) it's the assumption that ewveryone watching only watches at this time of year , and has no idea, or interest beyond it. And yes, AC is the worst offender.

We know all about Mensik. We watched him last year, when he played his first ATP tour events. So sod off AC .

and lovely picture of Mr and Mrs ADF.

I would like to think they are both wearing odd socks.

(His wife doesn't really look the type who could be persuaded to wear odd socks, though- but you never know).

This is looking better, Jakub.

Here comes the RBA story. You need new material, AC.

I've just watched a lovely pre-wedding video celelbraton of ADF and Paloma (I mean it looked a bit like a perfume ad, and it was very beige and white . but there was a tennis themed cake)- Arthur Fils was there!

Well done Jakub

I think Norris must have offended the Beeb in some way

And yes,well done Jakub.

I got distracted by the dog - but Jakub looked like he was going to win fairly comfortably by the end.

Annabel is not going to be drawn into talking about Cam- she's team Jakub all the way

Stef was in trouble over at Halle, but is turning it round in the 3rd set tie break.

Darderi not quite out of it yet.

Clare has a lot of notes!

I’m keeping an eye on Paula. First set going her way.

Stef has won- Darderi must be gutted- but well done to Stef (I think Goran is his new coach?)

Oh my one RB channel still works!
