Did Castle just fat shame someone in the Royal Box ?!

ticktock19 · 05/07/2025 14:51

Yes

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 05/07/2025 14:52

Terrible thing to say! Mac didn’t comment

Raahh · 05/07/2025 14:55

Poor Flavio- he's got to find somewhere else to stay Grin

(I'm a bit far away sadly).

Raahh · 05/07/2025 14:59

Well done Flavio! I was expecting more of a match, but I'm glad he won.

What did he say?

Well done Flávio - we’ve got a spare room but it’s a bit of a trek from Wimbledon!

Raahh · 05/07/2025 15:01

I'm not sure who I want to watch- I have turned to Grigor- apparently it's starting to look like rain.

So that makes my decision for me- and I will switch to Barbora on court 1.

He commented that it was a good job that Tony McCoy (retired jockey) was so small because the person next to him (missed his name) was taking up a lot of space (not his exact words but that’s what he implied)

Raahh · 05/07/2025 15:03

I'm not sure why the roof isn't already closed on court 1.

Fizzywinegum · 05/07/2025 15:04

I think he is getting worse - I think he forgets that people are actually listening to his waffling

How rude! AC never engages his brain.

Raahh · 05/07/2025 15:15

Elena doesn't seem to be doing very well over on court 2.

Players still out, and not playing ,on Court 1. Seems a bit bonkers. The weather is obviously a bit changeable- just shut the roof- they would be playing by now.

Who is the commentator with J.Mcenroe ? Not liking all these snide comments against Sinner !

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 05/07/2025 15:24

CASTLE - a nightmare

Raahh · 05/07/2025 15:32

And Rybakina is out.

Also looks like Jannik is very close to a win.

Andrew Castle is awful. He's obsessed with the doping offences- which are over and done- and were negligible at best. I'm not sure what his problem is, to be honest. Mac is usually banging on about them too- but even he was defending Jannik earlier. (I stopped listening and watched a different match).

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 05/07/2025 15:39

I hoped we might see Murray commentate this year. I suppose he doesn’t need the money and has better things to do

EasternStandard · 05/07/2025 15:40

Well done Sinner. Love watching him play. Tough for Martinez as a hard person to go against

Raahh · 05/07/2025 15:42

Well done Jannik- nice comments about Pedro.

EasternStandard · 05/07/2025 15:43

Players are always so nice about Wimbledon, they’re so lovely

Fizzywinegum · 05/07/2025 15:47

I’ve just discovered that there is a Secret Pimms Garden in my city with tennis showing on a big screen - happy days SmileTennisGin

Raahh · 05/07/2025 15:52

First set Barbora- sadly she plays Mirra next if she wins, and I'd like both of them to go further.

That sounds fun- and not very secret Grin

He’s said he didn’t enjoy commentating when he did it a couple of years ago so I don’t think it’s a route he wants to go down.

Surprised to see Elena go out - maybe the rain delay put her off. Pleased to see Mirra through and Barbora doing well.
