New thread.

Yeah that is a bonus I suppose
I also timed my toilet break for the moment the match finished so I didnt have to listen to him talking! 🤣

Neal and Christian have won the doubles. Which is great.
Part of me just feels sorry for Joe Salisbury.

I'm only really half watching the women's final- Aryna's noise levels are too much this early.(I have the sound down) I want Elena to win, though I am expecting a competitive final.

Elena has started well.

I want Elena to win, but could do without all this footage of her unpleasant coach.

I know- there is something not right about the situaton at all.

I know Raahh
I'm* *for Neal but unhappy that he's already done the one thing that he and Joe couldn't last year. Why would he split with Harrison if they're winning? Poor Joe

*happy for Neal. Bloody phone

This game is a tough one. Come on Elena.

Think Aryna is getting a bit rattled, which is good for Elena.

Or maybe not. Set 3. I think Aryna probably wins this now.

I had to take the dog out, because he wasnt taking no for an answer.
So I missed all the second set and start of this.
I hope Elena can pull this back.

ooh things are getting interesting

Match is becoming exciting now. Come on Elena!

I don’t understand why the whoop watches were banned.

Money. It’s always money.

Wow, this has taken a turn.

No, I don't- they don't give a physcal advantage. They just analyse data. It's a Fitbit by another name. Unless I'm missing something.

Probably.

Elena looks very calm.

Despite the horrible coach shouting at her

Yes, she seemed to be ignoring him. I would be too.

I feels like a very odd relationship.

Well done Elena!

Well done Elena. Played like a champion!

Well done Elena!

As celebrations go, that was the most low key I've seen in a long while.
