TENNIS THREAD- we're moving on to the Hard Courts and the North American Swing. With a quick clay pit stop to win a cow or two. .

[Raahh]

I think this thread may take longer to fill than the last one.

.

Not as glamorous or well-connected, I'm afraid Jane Although I am blonde!
Well* *done Julian and Lloyd. Next up, Neal and Joe, although I've got to empty the dishwasher and cook dinner
Mo looked very overweight, sitting in the umpire's chair, like a Michelin man. It was only at the end of the match that I twigged he may have wrapped a towel(s) around his torso, under his shirt, to absorb the sweat, I'm guessing

Greg Allensworth is umpiring Joe and Neal. He also has Mo's physique. But without the towels

I have to make dinner as well. I wish everyone would stop eating!

I heard someone refer to Greg Allensworth as Humpty Dumpty and now I can’t unsee it

Elena is playing great against Aryna.

Carlos had a row with him the other day over an Evian bottle. Greg causes more drama than Mo!

I am watching Joe and Neal.

I have to be in the right frame of mind to put up with the noise Aryna makes, and today isn't it . I'm glad Elena is playing well. That will probably be making Aryna noisier, so I will stay put .

I think Sky have muted her!

Have they Jane?

The sound quality has been as annoying as ever, I had to turn it up so much the other day, dd2 startled the dog when she turned over and it blasted the Eastenders theme tune at full volume

Well done Elena. Quick match!

Well done Elena.

I hadn't realised it had ended- well done Elena!

Well done to Joe and Neal who play the two Lorenzos in the semi finals- that partnership is doing well.

Saw the last few points of Joe and Neal. Very happy for them. Two weeks running they've beaten the No1 team.
Surprised by the Rybakina result.

I'm glad Joe and Neal seem to be settling as a partnership- they just need a big win to cement it.

Premier League is back 😬

My virgin feed has gone wonky.

And I can't hear anything over the noise of the gig going on in a nearby park. Fontaines Dc and Kneecap tonight I think. I know Sam Fender is playing over the weekend.

It is very loud.

When I say nearby, it's 2-3 miles- but noise carries . It has become a popular venue the past few years. Not sure why. It's just somewhere we walk the dog .

Sorry for the double post.

The local dogs are joining with this song. Wish I could tell what it was.

Ooh- just score checking and see Andrey could get the second set

He did get it Raahh

Mo looking* *slimmer without towels stuffed up his shirt

Mo springing into action

Gerry Armstrong!

Close match, commiserations Andrey, congratulations Carlos.

Well done Carlos. Heartbroken for Andrey, it was such a close match and the pressure just got to him at the end. Never like to see anyone lose a match on a double fault.
