I calm him Mr Lover lover ! He was the umpire on court last time I went in 2017. He has a very distinctive voice.

tickingbird Thu 30-Jun-22 16:27:23

I believe he’s French

Grandmadinosaur Thu 30-Jun-22 16:28:57

Yes he is.

TillyTrotter Thu 30-Jun-22 16:29:03

He can sing the French alphabet and I will listen ?

Liam Broady is making a Murrayesque comeback!!!

Grannybags Thu 30-Jun-22 16:57:41

Well done Liam!

Bit worried about Rafa. Won the first set but hasn’t really settled yet

Smileless2012 Thu 30-Jun-22 16:59:08

AMAZING grin

Liam Broady is through, beating Diego Schwartzman in five sets ?

Rafa needs the sun to shine to dry out and harden the grass.

Millie22 Thu 30-Jun-22 18:33:34

And then it might be like a clay court!

Nanny27 Thu 30-Jun-22 18:41:00

Think I could spend my whole life watching Rafa play

Pittcity Thu 30-Jun-22 19:44:43

I'm watching Jack Draper!

Callistemon21 Thu 30-Jun-22 20:09:45

Oh!
De Minaur is Katie Bouter's boyfriend ?

NanKate Thu 30-Jun-22 21:54:14

I agree Nanny27 Rafa is sublime. ?

Come on Heather!

Zoejory Fri 01-Jul-22 14:13:51

Heather is playing some fantastic shots! She's doing so well

Zoejory Fri 01-Jul-22 14:15:55

I love to watch Rafael also. Such a fabulous player

On a very shallow level I miss his beautiful long wavy black hair

TillyTrotter Fri 01-Jul-22 14:39:22

Heather looks poised to take the win! ?

TillyTrotter Fri 01-Jul-22 14:39:57

She’s very graceful and it’s a pleasure to watch her play.

merlotgran Fri 01-Jul-22 14:51:15

Well done, Heather!!

TillyTrotter Fri 01-Jul-22 14:51:41

Fantastic - well done Heather ? ?

Zoejory Fri 01-Jul-22 14:54:23

Great job, Heather. Bit of a wobble at the end but she's come through. Fabulous.

TopsyIrene06 Fri 01-Jul-22 14:56:18

Excellent job Heather.

glammagran Fri 01-Jul-22 15:00:34

Just seen Heather’s match so well done! I often wonder why I watch as I feel like I’ll get heart failure at times.

MiniMoon Fri 01-Jul-22 15:08:21

Great win for Heather. It's wonderful to see so many British players doing so well.
Glad Rafa won yesterday.
