The Tennis thread

[Pagnell]

You again being a patronising arse. What about it?

I predicted 7 times champion Federer to win Wimbledon. You acted like it was a ridiculous prediction and now its not going to happen you point and laugh as if it proves your point? What a thoroughly dislikeable individual you're coming across as here.

Odious?

 

[Pagnell]

Nah, I wouldn't go that far Carel.

 

[Pagnell]

Too easy for Murray. Almost as bad as the Serena Williams semi yesterday, not much of a challenge offered by Berdych.

 

[MJA]

Berdych was poor and Murray got the job done without really getting out of 1st and 2nd gears

 

[SALTIRE]

Yeah he negated Berdych's power beautifully and had the poor sod running all over the court to keep up.

It's on! Let's do this Andy!

The womens final has been an excellent standard so far with Kerber giving Serena a tough match.

4-4 in the first set with no breaks yet.

 

[Super_horns]

Serena comes through and finally equals the record for most Grand Slams.

Got court 1 tickets tomorrow. Will be sitting on the hill watching Murray hopefully triumph instead!!

 

[Super_horns]

Heather Watson is in the Mixed double final as well - guess that will be after the Murray match?

How much do you pay for Court One on the final Sunday?

About 29 each. Got drawn out of the ballot from my tennis club so thought it's worth it to go and watch on the hill. Beats the queues for a ground pass as well

Envious as hell Lee with that! A friend of mine got Centre Court tickets the other year and saw Federer (which she was happy about) and Sharapova (which her husband was happy about!). I always say I'll go to either Wimbledon or the WTF but I have'nt yet, need to pull my finger out my arse on that one!

Well done to Watson for getting to the final; we've also had British winners in the men's wheelchair doubles and Gordon Reid is also up in the men's singles wheelchair final tomorrow after Andy. Been a good tournament for the Brits with the Willis story as well earlier in the tournament.

 

[This Charming Mike]

Excellent start for Murray. Controlled, professional, a few good chances to break while, on his own serve, not giving Raonic a sniff. More of the same please, Andy.

 

[Super_horns]

2 down - 1 to go.

Certainly been very solid not giving much away at all.

 

[Jockney]

There's been an explosion in Milton Keynes...

 

[Pagnell]

Fraid not Jockney. Besides, I'm not in Milton Keynes.

 

[The Iron]

This really was far too easy for Murray, who outclassed Raonic is nearly every department.

Well played Murray and another wimbledon slam now in the bag

Get in!!!

 

[This Charming Mike]

He's just phenomenal. We are so lucky to have a player of his quality.

 

[Pagnell]

Bit of an uneventful final. Disappointing almost.

Anyway congrats you shouty, dour fucker. You took full advantage of Djokovic and Federer exiting earlier than expected and you couldn't be asked to do any more than that. Looks like this year you're the victorious Brit rather than the valiant Scot.

 

[Super_horns]

Fully deserved.

Dominated that match and most of the tournament!

 

[SALTIRE]

So happy for him, I was too nervous to watch and have only just found out!

Will catch the highlights on iPlayer later on! This deserves a celebratory dram!

 

[Master D]

He is just too good for everyone not named Djokovic.

 

[TractorBoys]

Murray masterclass. Only a peak performance from Djok was ever going to trouble him in the final.

Superb tournament, cut above anyone else.

 

[Super_horns]

Heather Watson and partner have won the Mixed Doubles!

Well done - another British success!

 

[SALTIRE]

And now Heather Watson wins in the mixed doubles! What a day!

 

[DarkSithLord]

Superb from Waston. Will help build her confidence back up too after a awful defeat in the singles (Missing out on 5 match points)

 

[Super_horns]

Well done Lee on his TFF success (despite claiming it was a last minute rushed job!)

1st Wilson's Wonders 1351
2nd Off The Line 1306
3rd The Living Geckos 1287
4th Baker's Ballers 1181
5th Mark F SW19 1007

Difference was Lee's ladies came top whilst OFL's finished 4th.

It really was. Surprised I won but seems it was harder to get consistency across the board with valuations in this one.

 

[Super_horns]

Probably just got better knowledge than the rest of us too!

Never do that well in this but its fun to do.
