TENNIS THREAD- WIMBLEDON- part 3! Will the Plucky Brit make it to the end? Will there be 2 Italian winners at the weekend? Will Cobolli have to move house again?

[Raahh]

We will probably need another thread before the weekend anyway- but these are important questions.

Aargh!!

Wow!

Tracy giggling at Mac

Oh wow- Linda has just imploded.

Karolina looks shocked at herself!

Do feel for Linda. How many Championship
points did she have?

I hope she isn’t crying 😢

5

Come on Linda, pick yourself up.

I wanted a 3 set match- but somehow now it feels cruel.

Yeah I know exactly what you’re saying - it’s finally a final BUT

Wow. I turned on at 5-2 thinking I’ll watch the last game or so! I didn’t really mind who won but now it would feel really cruel if Linda loses after having so many match points. That would almost be worse than Amanda last year.

I know. As the mother of 2 young 20 somethings, I want to give Linda a hug

I agree- Amanda totally lost. There was no ambiguity

Linda was dominating the match- and then completely lost her nerve.

Phew. She's finally got a game.

It's also getting to that annoying part of the day when the shadow causes problems on the court.

And now Linda is back up in the score line.
If she can just back up the break.

If they started earlier there wouldn’t be that shadow

Nope.

It's certainly turning into a good final. It's pretty much got everything.

I had a glass of wine during the last game.

It helped me enormously.

Impressive how Linda has regrouped. She’s been better at taking her break point opportunities.

we do have a plucky brit at the end,
in the doubles
the doubles, like jamie murray, get ignored

Linda has totally re-grouped.

Someone has given Kate a hat

The shadow is so fucking annoying!
