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

Daniil makes me laugh. He's like a mad professor.

I think the mascot bear is suffering from malnutrition

It is a it scrawny for a bear
Probably melting in the heat, too.

Is Sascha sick?

Eh what now? Toilet break? They've not played 2 games.
Is Sascha ok?

Blimey Keith

I know ice I was not impressed with Carlos and his reasoning for not putting the bins out. He wouldn't get away with it if I was his mum!!

Jacob needs to refocus.

Seems half the staff went to the bathroom with Sascha!

I'd hate to be a sportsperson.

Since when are you allowed to take a toilet break in the middle of a game?

I was a bit shocked when I found out that the drug testers literally have to watch the pee coming out of the player's body

I know. Grim.

No dignity, even for top class sportspeople.

The Zverev camp all like their own space

Sascha is like Mr. Bean today - whacking himself in the knee now

Jacob has got the service yips.

Paula retiring

Oh, Paula has retired - and thoroughly smashed that racquet.

Jacob's serving is absolutely terrible. A bit like in the 2nd set yesterday but worse!!

Oh that's a shame for Paula, another flare up of the back injury?

This could be over very quickly for Jacob unless he can find his serve.

Why did Paula retire?

Naughty Keith!

I will look out for Rafa’s ‘knighthood’ - I seem to remember him wearing a green Father Christmas hat one time but can’t remember why!

Sounds like it’s all happening in tennis - just catching up on a bit of the Jacob match in my lunch break but it’s not going too well for him

Who the heck is Keith?!!

Late to this party I admit.

Well done Jiri. Jacob will be a bit disappointed, his serve really let him down today.

Kei Nishikori :-)

Well done Sascha- didn't think he would last the match.

Well done Sascha
