This is not going well. Vamos Carlos!

kazzaD66 · 01/02/2026 09:31

I can't even bear to score watch. My Sunday is already ruined Angry

magimedi · 01/02/2026 09:32

Are you there @StartupRepair ?

Fizzywinegum · 01/02/2026 09:34

At least the windy is on Carlos’ side - Djok will want the roof closing soon

Raahh · 01/02/2026 09:35

Vamos, Now keep it up.

Or my stress levels will go up and I will have to do the ironing.

IceandIndigo · 01/02/2026 09:35

Vamos!

Please hold your serve.

I think Mark Edmondson (last Australian man to win AO) is presenting the trophy. I don't love Novak but he is extraordinary.

That would make sense - I think maybe Rafa is too ‘recent’ to present the trophy

Vamos Carlos!

Yes, if the Windy gets too bad, it will be in Carlos's favour.

I hope it doesn't rain- closing the roof/ and stall in momentum will help Djok.

IceandIndigo · 01/02/2026 09:45

Well at least the net cord is Spanish.

I can’t stand this. At least in Jannik’s match he had a bunch of easy service holds to bring my stress levels down.

@magimedi on the couch at home tonight.

IceandIndigo · 01/02/2026 09:52

This is more like it. Vamos!

The trouble with AO, is with the time difference it really is too early for a stiff drink.

At least it's socially acceptable to have a Pimms watching Wimbledon, and RG is late enough to get the wine out. And obviously the US Open is at night.

My lemon and ginger tea is not cutting it.

Raahh · 01/02/2026 09:55

Vamos!

ChessieFL · 01/02/2026 09:56

That’s better, more of that please Carlos!

Fizzywinegum · 01/02/2026 09:56

I’m on the coffee but don’t want to get too caffeinated - maybe we could just pretend we’re on Australian time?

This set is making me a little less stressed though - phew Vamos Carlos!

I won’t judge you Raahh. Some things are not meant to be endured without a stiff drink.

You could go for a Bloody Mary Raahh, that seems to be an acceptable morning drink!

Raahh · 01/02/2026 09:58

Carlos is not happy the roof is closing.
It seems a bit helping Djok by stealth.

It does.

Carlos is not happy about the roof situation- and neither am I.

IceandIndigo · 01/02/2026 10:00

Wtf, Djok loses the set so they close the roof? This is bullshit. Carlos needs to calm down though.

OP posts:
Raahh · 01/02/2026 10:00

We know who it suits more, Tim. And we know who probably won't be at all surprised to see the roof shutting. He probably requested it.

IceandIndigo · 01/02/2026 10:01

It is 100% intended to benefit Djok. I just hope Carlos doesn't let it get to him.

I can see why he's annoyed, but he can't let it get to him.

Fizzywinegum · 01/02/2026 10:01

It is unfair but Carlos is using up a lot of energy arguing about the roof
