The only acceptable way for Castle to be commentating the final is if Agassi is with him barely able to contain is irritation at the inane drivel. But I’d rather just have a focus on the tennis.

Well done Elise and Veronika.

Raahh · 13/07/2025 15:33

Well done to Veronika and Elise- sad for Hsieh Su-Wei and Jelena.

But now, they all have titles.

Louis’s not allowed in case he starts shouting at the players?

Lol! George and Charlotte were quite animated in last year's final. It was clear they were rooting for Alcaraz.

Well done ladies!!

JaneJeffer · 13/07/2025 15:36

Is she sacking Jelena? Grin

It did sound like that!

Have they been told to keep the speeches short?

The men’s speeches were short yesterday too even though they had loads of time

That's true. Maybe they just didn't want to chat.

My thoughts too re Alcaraz Vs Sinner. For most, this is the final tennis fans wanted after Roland Garos but Sinner isn't fully fit...will be interesting. I love Wimbledon!

Yes, I really had a chuckle at her comment 😂

RafaistheKingofClay · 13/07/2025 15:42

Hopefully we’re only going to need 20 mins of filler.

BakeOffRewatch · 13/07/2025 15:42

Really enjoyed the women’s doubles finals, thank you to PP on last thread who mentioned Hsieh’s age! Yes I am really impressed! That rally at the end, I was on the edge of my seat

Clafoutie · 13/07/2025 15:44

Apologies for ignorance, but who was that presenting the trophies?

Let's hope so- they were not going to waste that Mac video though!

I still haven’t seen the video of Emma walking down the corridor! Shock

OK so DS1 chose match point in the women’s doubles final to pop round to drop something off! It’s a family conspiracy!

I’m thinking of closing the curtains and pretending that I’m not in!

Steala · 13/07/2025 15:50

It's starting at 4.10 so more filler

Raahh · 13/07/2025 15:50

One was Debbie Jevans- the chair of the All England Club (the one in blue- she's there every day in the Royal Box) and Sandy Proctor?

Yesterday's match didn't start til about then eithers- and the men's doubles finished in plenty of time!

Had to mention the doping ban.

And as we pointed out - at no point yesterday, was Iga's ban mentioned.

OP posts:
Raahh · 13/07/2025 15:54

(And I really like Iga- but it shows the different way players are being treated, depending on who the media are supporting).

I don’t think Sinner is injured, he looked amazing against Djokovic.

RafaistheKingofClay · 13/07/2025 15:59

Some of us have not forgotten about Nadal, John Macenroe.

Thank you, though I realise now I meant the announcer/ interviewer?
