I was an initial sceptic of the Laver cup, but last year I really enjoyed watching it, especially the doubles. Much more enjoyable than the Six Kings, which has rather grim vibes. I don't see how LC will survive if the best players choose not to play it though, for the time being Carlos is there but it seems like Jannik isn't interested and would rather take Saudi blood money.

Katerina got a bit cross and whacked the net.

I’m watching the girls’ semi final. Hannah (British girl) is behind unfortunately- but still time!

Raahh · 05/09/2025 18:17

Going well for Dabrowski and Routliffe. I really like Siniakova, but I don't think this going to be her day. Mind you, doubles matches can change in an instant.

Raahh · 05/09/2025 18:35

Lost track of the deuces in this games.

Raahh · 05/09/2025 18:46

Well done to Dabrowski and Routliffe

IceandIndigo · 05/09/2025 18:46

Well done Erin and Gabby!

Hannah Klugman lost her semi final unfortunately so no all-Brit final. However Mika Stojsavljevic bagelled her opponent in the first set so we may still get at least one Brit there.

I had no idea about Gaby's breast cancer. What an amazing recovery, in just over a year

Would be quite something if Mika could defend the title. Must be unusual for a junior to do that. They usually move on to the seniors after doing well in juniors.

Theres' a bit too much attention on Djok for my liking. Are Sky biased? Surely not. Hmm.

Interesting that it might be very hot for the match. Djok might not like that.

ChessieFL · 05/09/2025 19:36

Unfortunately not looking good for Mika now.

Oh good I hope it’s roasting.

Honestly my feeling watching Djokovic play lately is pretty much the same feeling of dread as at the end of a horror film when you think the bad guy is probably dead but you’re holding your breath in case there’s another jump scare coming. And I hate horror films.

A Djokovic Dance? What fresh hell is this?!

ChessieFL · 05/09/2025 19:56

That’s even more cringy than the violin playing!

Martina having none of it!

Raahh · 05/09/2025 19:56

The dancing was cringy.

Stop it . Stop it now.

Raahh · 05/09/2025 19:59

Why are they so obsessed with Djok?

The last time I remember this level of fawning , it was Rusedski in 2021, determined he would win his 20th slam .

That went well.

Raahh · 05/09/2025 20:04

Actually - I think it was more the fact Djok would win the calender slam.

Why are they still talking?

I'm not really in a rush to see Djok, but the match should be starting now,surely. I'd rather be watching the players knocking up than listening to Tim waffling.

IceandIndigo · 05/09/2025 20:08

Yeah it needs to start, some of us are middle

Yes, not sure I’ll manage to stay awake for the whole match!

IceandIndigo · 05/09/2025 20:11

Carlos’ hair grows so fast.

Poor Laura- if the Djok fans start lighting cigars, I would be chucking drinks at them.

Vamos!

Good start, Carlos.

Just ignore any antics coming from the other side of the net.
