Maja is so enjoyable to watch

The SF against Shnaider was one of the most enjoyable matches I’ve seen in a long time.

ChessieFL · 06/06/2026 15:09

Mirra seems have settled into it now but Maja making lots of errors.

IceandIndigo · 06/06/2026 15:10

Yeah this is more how I expected this to go.

JaneJeffer · 06/06/2026 15:10

The Polish team all look a bit stunned to be in the final

I wish it wasn’t so windy!

Yes, I think once Mirra got past the first few games, she settled in.

The wind is annoying- but it's windy for both, although it appears to be worse at one end? according the commentators?

Raahh · 06/06/2026 15:19

If nothing else, this will have given Maja a lot of experience,and she played well in the first week , when it was hot, and the courts were probably fast. This will help going into grass. But she's still managing some great shots.

Conchita’s sweatshirt looks like a Sainsbury’s uniform.

Maybe that’s why she keeps looking at her watch. She’s late for her shift.

I want Mirra to win, but I like Maja, and I don't want this second set to be a bagel.

ChessieFL · 06/06/2026 15:36

At least Maja has won a few games, not like poor Amanda last year.

IceandIndigo · 06/06/2026 15:37

Come on Maja let’s get one game at least.

No, Amanda at Wimbledon was a car crash. But Iga was just laser focused. I don't think she even noticed she had an opponent!

Raahh · 06/06/2026 15:41

I'd forgotten Maja didn't have a kit sponsor. She was asked why she kept wearing different things.

She will have one by Wimbledon, no doubt.

IceandIndigo · 06/06/2026 15:46

This tournament is going to change her whole life irrespective of the outcome of this match.

Just looked at the scoreline. Not unexpected but not what I wanted. I wish it had been a Marta vs Maja final, then I wouldn't have minded who won.

Sad it wasn't to be for Henry and Harri but weirdly, despite losing to them, they have now leapfrogged Granollers and Zeballos to be the new No1s! The vagaries of the ATP rankings system Grin

According to DS, Joe is back with Rajeev!!

Raahh · 06/06/2026 15:49

Well done Mirra!

JaneJeffer · 06/06/2026 15:49

Well done Mirra

I would love to see Joe successful with Rajeev again- I feel like Joe has had to battle some demons . He's getting married and hopefully is happier in himself.

IceandIndigo · 06/06/2026 15:51

Well done Mirra!

kazzaD66 · 06/06/2026 15:51

Just seen that Alfie lost to Oda in the singles finalSad
At least he and Gordon won the doubles again yesterday.

ChessieFL · 06/06/2026 15:53

Very pleased for Mirra.

Raahh · 06/06/2026 15:53

I'm happy for Conchita too- I think she is a really good coach for Mirra,, knows when to step in and calm her down- and also lets her be a teenager.

Yes I think another coach could have been disastrous for Mirra. Conchita gets the balance just right.
