TENNIS THREAD - hotdogs and weed, it must be the US Open

[ChessieFL]

I managed to close off the last thread without realising and couldn’t see a new one, so here you go!

Andrey looks headed for the dreaded 10 point tiebreak.

Come on Andrey!!

Carlos looks like he’s about to shoot some hoops.

Well done Andrey. Made that a bit more complicated than it needed to be, but a win is a win.

Football is on now so I’ll be score watching

Basket ball themed kits seem to be a 'thing' - Sabalenka's is as well (her's is particularly awful)

I thought Aryna’s match kit was a lot better than the one she was wearing for the mixed doubles. It was orange all over instead of the two tone look.

Carlos is constantly fussing with either his hair or his vest, I think it’s all a bit distracting. But what do I know, because he’s up by 2 sets.

Perhaps that’s his cunning plan ice, distracting his opponent with nipple flashing

Yes, the singles version was better.

I've just seen Taylor Townsend's kit- she has fringing.

FFS.

Will Naomi Osaka wear something approaching an ordinary sports kit in the US do we think?

would be ironic if she did- since if she was going to go ott anwhere, it would be New York.

I'm holding out for a Big Apple costume. With sparkly bits, and a lot of unnecessary netting.

Vamos! Carlitos, it's nice to have you back.

Well done Carlos. Vamos!!

Ha ha just catching up with the tennis and the thread - too much nipple flashing from Carlos - doesn’t seem to have done him any harm - Safiullin might have been a bit distracted - I’m sure this wouldn’t have been allowed at Wimbledon

Not a chance. You know full well her outfit will be bonkers.

No, I did think that a white version of that vest would be frowned upon at Wimbledon

My secondary school uniform, in the 80s, was brown and oatmeal.

It suits no-one. Even Carlos.

Jacob Fearnley is now level at 2-2 in his match with Martin Landaluce.
Martin has gone for a kit change- and the court is a long way from the locker rooms. But Martin is back.

Not sure I’ll be able to stay up to watch the end of Matteo and Stan’s match. Wish they wouldn’t draw two players I like together! Looks like it’s going to be a close match.

It’s a great match between Matteo and Stan. I’m not sure how much longer I can stay awake though.

DS is watching Fearnley. He served for the match at 5-1 in the 5th set. He had 2 match points at 40-15, completely missed an easy smash and has lost his serve. Now the match is suspended.

Not suspended! He’s just won. Well done Jacob.

Yes, just seen the score!

Wish I could watch Matteo vs Stan!

Had to go searching for Stan because Sky thinks that Gigi and Tim having a chat is more important than the tennis
