TENNIS: all to clay for

[JaneJeffer]

sorry

He is a prat.

I love Gigi trying to see if Jannik is still behind her when she’s speaking about him

I’m admiring Marion’s eyebrows. I wonder what she uses on them. Mine need an intervention.

I gave up on my eye brows around 2007 (I think I had them 'done' when I got married).
I rely on them not being very visible behind my specs (and the fact everything else about me needs attention) .

Marion looks great today. I'm glad she's stopped wearing the flouncy frocks. At least for now (she might dig them out for RG).

Unfortunately, I've got to the age where my eyebrows are rapidly disappearing. Which is bloody annoying considering hair grows at a rate of knots on my chin, neck and just about anywhere else on my face, cheekbones down, these days

My chin hairs have a life of their own . Only I can never see them.

DH plucks them . Or my mother very helpfully points them out. Thanks mum.

I can see most of them but DS (bless him ) has to wield the tweezers sometimes, for the extra stubborn ones! He's got better eyesight than DH

Well, I'm pretty bored by this match. It's always the same when a newbie beats a top name- and then fails to come close to backing it up. At least he has a game.

I just hope the final is competitive. But they've played 8 times in the last 18 months alone- and Sascha has only taken a set from Jannik.

Not that this match is over yet . Could still get an upset.

That was the first thing I thought when I woke up!

First of May, first of May…

This set is going better for Alex- but I'm a bit distracted.

Alex has just been broken at 5-5 on the second set- so I think Sascha will take it now. But Blockx stuck with him for a while.

Well done to Sascha- but at least Alex made a match of the second set.

I always think of it now too since you posted it here

Well done to Harri and Henry!

I have missed the start of the women's final.

Poor Mirra can't win- they have been complaining about her showing too many emotions all week, and that they need to stop making excuses for her(she's just 19, ffs)- now she's not showing enough.

She's doing better this set, so this final might go to three sets (I'm not too hopeful about the men's).

But Mirra has just been broken, and it's back on serve.

I hope Mirra can keep her level up in this set. Nothing against Marta but I would like Mirra to win!

Oh dear- come on Mirra!

Not looking good for Mirra. I thought she was going to be able to take the second set but not looking likely now.

oof- is she ok?

Imagine having to retire on match point! Luckily she seems ok.

Well done Marta

Well done Marta.

I feel sorry for Mirra- but she has done well to getto the final. Poor Mirra.
Still no handshakes then?

Was just score watching. Well done Marta. I hope Mirra isn’t too upset.
