TENNIS - green, green grass, blue, blue sky, wide, wide seats as we head towards July

[JaneJeffer]

Good win for Tien over Engel- but it was a good match from both of them.

And now we have Sweet Caroline- the sped up version.

Shoot me.

I haven’t really been paying attention today

Paul Jubb won his first round of Wimbledon qualifying

I am watching the ATP skit from Indian wells, with players teaching members of the public how to become tennis stars.
Crucial things like bouncing balls before serving, and racquet smashing.

Alex De Minaur peeling bananas- and Holger teaching them how to write on camera lenses -'look at this great rocket' (hold up drawing of a dick) .

They showed that on Sky this morning

Has everyone seen this one?

The court in Eastbourne looks so pretty.

It was very funny (if I ignored the fact Djok was in it ).

I remember that, Holger has great comic timing.

Maya Joint is playing in sunglasses, hardly ever see that.

That is so funny. Some of the faces they were pulling.

I love the way Daria says pickled onions

I think after the fish and chips and pickled onions I would have refused to sample any more.

Barbora cracked me up 'It smells not very well' (I think that was the gravy).

Well done Maya. Ons seems a shadow of her former self unfortunately.

It’s such a shame for Ons, she was so close to winning slams but it’s hard to see that happening now.

Jasmine is pissed off

If the referee agrees with the umpire she’s going to lose it

I saw she wasn't happy-but I was on the phone and didn't see the outcome.

Eastbourne started , then it rained, and I think they might be playing again.

Hoping Barbora can beat Harriet.

Lois Boisson not doing too well in the Wimbledon qualifying.

Come on Jasmine!

The call was allowed to stand so she lost the point. That was the second call that went against her. This umpire won’t be on the Christmas card list.

I love the colour Leylah is wearing

Oof- Jasmine!

Phew! What a stressful tie break.

Going better for Lois in her second set.

Oh I really want Lois to get through and meet Harriet Dart in the first round

Looking better for Jasmine now- but I'm not counting my chickens yet.
