I used to live and work and study around Wimbledon..... It's not much fun to be anywhere near the area when it's on... Enjoy peeps...

I LOVE Wimbledon! And I especially love when an underdog gets through! Go Tiafoe!

Paula

Oh ffs Andy!!!

Suzi

What's he done?

Paula

Was 2 sets up, 5-0 in the third. And lost that set!

Suzi

I’m not long home and sat down to watch Murray who is a set to the good but did I hear right that Otte had a “wardrobe malfunction” and asked the referee if he could change his shorts? Lol, did anyone see the incident and can explain exactly what happened. I only heard about it on the radio on my way home.

They did slip but I don’t think much was shown off ;)

I didn’t miss much then ;) Murray 2-1 down against the German.

Our film started at 10pm so we missed the last half of the 5th set! :(. But so relieved he got through….

It was hard work but he got there in the end.

So, Norris v Federer…… at least I’ll be happy whichever one wins. But who do I cheer for?

Stella180

Norris. Cheer on the underdog.

Paula
02-07-21, 08:53 AM
But, it’s Federer…..

Stella180

You can enjoy his victory which is inevitable. It would be one hell of a scalp if Norris can beat him.

Paula

Andy’s out, Dan’s out. We’re relying on Cam in the men’s, who’s playing Federer……

I didn’t expect Murray to go far. His time if over after his hip problems. He put up a good fight but he’s a shadow of the player he once was.

Paula
03-07-21, 11:19 AM
He’s still got the technique, it’s his physicality that’s lacking

Stella180
03-07-21, 12:23 PM
Yep and maybe it’s something he can work on but he’s not getting any younger and I can’t see him hitting the heights he once did.

Paula
03-07-21, 01:23 PM
No, me neither

Paula

It’s definitely been a rollercoaster for us Brits today!

Oh yes, great for the ladies not so great for the men.

Deseret this year isn’t at the top of his game but still able the make others look ordinary. World class.

Emma Rudicanu is finally on court for her 4th rd match. I’ll be honest, I’ve not seen her play yet so looking forward to this one.

Paula
07-07-21, 06:32 PM
So upset…..

Suzi

Sorry lovely...

After Ash Barry’s win in the ladies tournament yesterday we are blessed with a Djokovic vs Berettini and the Italian is playing some good stuff. 1 set each and not much to pick between them in the 3rd.

Stella180

Novak is now at 2 sets to 1 with the score at 5-3 in the 4th.

They think it’s all over….

Stella180
11-07-21, 05:35 PM
…It is now! Djokovic wins his 20th Grand Slam title. Great effort by the Italian though.

Paula
11-07-21, 06:38 PM
It was a great match, Matteo will go far!

Suzi
11-07-21, 08:55 PM
Who won?

Stella180

Novak Djokovic. 3-1 in sets.
