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

Awww- that is so cute.

Second set for Jasmine, but it's not been easy.

Matteo is struggling - and lost the break he had in the 3rd set.

ADF is doing well.

Tracy is watching Brandon though.

Oh damn.

Come on Matteo!

Another tiebreak for Andrey

It's going better for Jasmine in set 3. I think she is a player who often has to play herself into a match.

The plastic bags of ice that the players have to cool down, don't look very practical. They look like they might burst any time.

They need the cold towel things that they have everywhere else.

Well done Andrey

Sheesh

Sorry that was for Emmerdale

Well done Jasmine.

That was not an easy match.

It could describe many points, in many of these matches.

Grrr. Every time I think Matteo is getting somewhere, he loses the break.

He was gifted the last game though. Just needs to serve this pit.

Come on Matteo!

Oh damn

Not surprised to see the Fritz/GMP match has gone to a tie break.

Well done ADF!

This 5th set is running away from Matteo .

I wonder if by the next match, the commentators will have settled on a pronunciation of 'Majchrzak'

Gosh I’d be annoyed if I had CC tickets tomorrow, Djok is the only men’s match and both Jannik and Jack are on Court 1.

Yes that match was always likely to be a serving competition.

I feel bad for Matteo because he has rotten luck at Wimbledon. He’s either struggling with injury or getting horrible draws. This year he’s got a decent draw but it looks like he doesn’t have the match fitness to take advantage of it.

It just seems to to always fall at the wrong time for him- or something happens to thwart him. The year it was all going really well, no injries, good run of wins up to it-- he got covid.

He can't seem to catch a break.

Raahh, yes exactly.

Matteo
