The Tennis Thread

[Lord Knows]

He has to play the best player in the world, probably followed by the second best, and, if not, a 6'8" mountain with a siege gun of a serve.

On one knee.

Yeah, ok, but i still quite fancy his chances, i must be dumb.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Something has to give in this game as neither Djokovic nor Del Potro have lost a set yet.

Novak will go through, you'd be nuts to bet on JMDP at this stage.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

The way his mum just nodded at him made me quite scared. It seemed to calmly convey the message "either win the next two sets or you're dead. Not metaphorically - actual dead".

I haven't watched much tennis over the last few years and Wednesday was the first time I had seen her, Christ.

There must be serial killers who grew up in a happier household then Andy Murray did.

 

[Langers]

Djokovic with a single break point, and that's all he needs.

1-0.

 

[Nando]

Delpo breaks to love.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Del Potro got poor movement. Gets away with it better on grass as he can hit winners. But djokovic gets a lot back so he needs to go extra big consistently to win.

Your jokin, Del Boy moves great, its the Chris Waddle factor, tries to fool everyone with his silly look.

 

[Langers]

Intriguing game thus far with more chances to break than I thought there would be.

1-1. Game on.

 

[Lord Knows]

Del Boy went to 20/1 after the first set, back into 5/1.

 

[Nando]

This is phenomenal.

 

[Nando]

And that's the shot of the day.

 

[Langers]

Tremendous entertainment on show here.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Indeed they are playing what seems to be Tennis.

 

[Lord Knows]

Set point down and what a shot..whooooooooooosh.

 

[So Long Architect]

Just said "fuckin' hell" a bit too loud in the office when DP broke back.

 

[WolfiePhil]

Just said "$#@!in' hell" a bit too loud in the office when DP broke back.

I too am having to keep my viewing quiet so I don't disturb those working... then again most of us are watching it!!

Pretty intense game so far! Some great tennis being played.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Match point then

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Jesus this is immense stuff

 

[Nando]

This is close to Rafa v Roger 2008. Magnificent.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Match points saved. Come on del Porto, I would love another set of this
