TENNIS THREAD- WIMBLEDON 25- It's the FINALS countdown....

[Raahh]

This is just so much better vibes than the last two finals.

I’m glad you can’t see my hair 😂

I always love it when they look panicked because they've forgotten to put the Rolex on, rummaging through the bag.

At least Rafa has the sense to wear a ridiculously expensive watch he could play in. .

Yes!

Me and DP were discussing this a couple of days ago - if anything, a long delay would be more catastrophic for lower ranked players so theoretically, if anything, those should be processed quicker! A top player will have the finances to manage a suspension and greater capacity to bounce back.

No reason for these cases to take so long tbh.

I think Jannik’s brother got the Italian genes

According to wikipedia, he is Russian!

Mine too! I do have a hairdressers appointment on Tuesday though

Do they still have the Champions Ball? The dance between Jannik and Iga has the potential to be quite awkward.

Kate and Annabel C show Wimbledon in a good way, they both look great

I mean obviously Italian now but adopted from Russia. Sinners first language is German as he grew up near Bolzano.

I think youre being serious but this made me giggle

Its exactly what's gonna happen

Oh his brother is adopted?

But are you expecting to be in front of overhead cameras??

At one time it would have been either Songs of Praise or Last of the Summer Wine

Not Going Out seems to have been the filler programme this Wimbledon but I’m always up for a bit of Dads Army

Yeh I've seen Croft doing commentary and interviews in the last few years and her hair is often very wild.
Wished mine was as thick..

I know the bbc far too well 😁 the schedulers and I are telepathic

I'm glad Sinner won and I'm not even a fan particularly.

Claire must have those shoes in every colour

Are we not getting to see the wander around the back stage and showing the trophy on the balcony?

This is a bit like the TNT coverage.

Some Mother’s do ave them and Are you being served we’re also a popular filler shows. But not sure they show them now. Or Coast if it was only 15-10 mins to fill

Yesterday it was some antiques thing.

The Beeb have a lot of antiques things.

countless antiques shows

Yeh bit weird we didn't see the usual walking through the corridor.

oh here we go- the back stage stuff.
