TENNIS- Grass season is upon us. Wimbledon is around the corner.

[Raahh]

Panic! the thread was ending.

Interesting @magimedi I’d love to follow the tour all year round but I don’t have the right channels. I always thought it was something embarrassing that only the Brits indulged in

And she's been broken.

Jasmine's rubbish 2026 looks like it is going to continue.

Got the break back- don't blow it!

Jasmine is on the RB now. She seems to be limping a bit.

Virgin has issues in our area. Virgin are bloody annoying.

I'm not sure Jasmine has fully recovered from her foot issues, Jane.

Forza! Jasmine.

Sad for Robin to end on a double fault.

Forza Jasmine!

Forza Jasmine! Thought they were headed for the dreaded 10 point tiebreak but Montgomery seemed to get a bit tight towards the end there.

Taylor Fritz also had a silly walk on outfit.

Iga is already struggling against the other Taylor (Townsend), whose outfit has wedding dress vibes.

Iga got out of the first game, had to save 5 BPs!

I've just turned on the Iga match. The outfits are getting a bit silly- although it's very Chrissie Evert in the 70s. At least she's stopped short of frilly undies. .

I missed t'other Taylor.

Ok, I've seen Fritz now. What's with the white blazers? And the scarf? It's a million degrees. Are they starting a cult?

I blame Roger. He started all this with the monogrammed cardigan

Iga is rolling now.

I actually thought this might be tougher, but Iga seems to be over the rough patch.

Roger got away with the cardigans because it aligned with his personal style and his whole vibe. Djok and Taylor both looked uncomfortable, like they were playing dress up. With Naomi her outfits are always full on and not to everybody's taste, but at least they feel like an authentic expression of her personality.

This is true- Roger didn't take himself seriously, really, I don't think. Djok very much does. But he can't carry off the look.

I don't buy Taylor as a model, even though he does model for Boss- he , as you say, looks uncomfortable.
Naomi's outfits are more authentic - but they are getting increasingly too much.

Pretty spectacular second set collapse from Iga. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised given her recent form but somehow I still am.

Well done Katie Swan. I saw the final game, which took forever, and she finally won it on her 5th match point.

I saw a video of Taylor Fritz walking on to court and he looked very uncomfortable Because he had long trousers, it looked slightly better than Djok's holiday camp shorts, but what the hell was the scarf Even Fred Perry didn't have a scarf
Looking forward to Stan and Matteo, although I'm not sure how much of the match I'll get to see and it will be sad to see either of them lose.
I wonder if Matteo will be forced to wear the Fred Perry ensemble? Although I think he could carry it off better than Taylor

Hello. I haven’t been able to watch any tennis yet because my work is being very unreasonable and expecting me to actually work while the tennis is on. I’m on a train home now so hoping to get home in time for Matteo and Stan. Some interesting results so far today!

Nice that Katie B and ADM were on the same court one after another - shame they couldn’t both win!

It's not on, is it Chessie Employers paying you and expecting you to work!!
I say this as someone who no longer works but was outraged at the concept when I was employed

I'm watching Fery, who has just taken the 3rd set to lead 2 sets to 1 vs Dzumhur.

My mother rang, so I missed Iga implode in the second set. I am now score watching, waiting for dd2.

Matteo could come out wearing abin bag and look better than either of the Taylors, to be honest- but I hope he just sticks to sportswear!

Well done Arthur!!
And Fearnley has just taken his match to a 5th set.

Wow, two British winners in one day, with Fearnley's match still to conclude? We are being spoiled!

Well done Iga. She's in tears.
