Nadal is making some amazing shots
I’m loving having 10yrar old Aussie GS watching with me

Wonderful! ?

You'd think that Nadal could afford underwear that fits. He seems to be fiddling with it all the time!!

It’s great isn’t it Lucca

Had my 5 year old GS here after school last week watching it with me. I told him Rafa is Grandma’s favourite and we were shouting Come on Rafa at the screen ❤️

Currently watching BBC2 but just heard that Novax has lost the first set!!

Grandmadinosaur Tue 05-Jul-22 14:50:36

Currently watching the ladies but in the updates it said Djokovic is a set down. Long way to go but fingers crossed for Sinner. ???

Grandmadinosaur Tue 05-Jul-22 14:51:17

Crossed posts but think alike Smileless

Smileless2012 Tue 05-Jul-22 14:52:03

Yep, great minds Grandmadinosaur. Come on Sinner.

Callistemon21 Tue 05-Jul-22 14:54:20

Oh! We're watching the Ladies quarter final too.

Honeysuckleberries Tue 05-Jul-22 15:08:13

Sinner is doing really well. The game is good but the commentary is dire and boring. Tim Henman again.

Smileless2012 Tue 05-Jul-22 15:18:51

Gosh it's tense isn't it, one of those matches when it's a shame someone has to lose.

tickingbird Tue 05-Jul-22 15:21:44

Sinner 2 sets up. Djokovic not his usual dominant self and the young Italian is playing an amazing match.

Millie22 Tue 05-Jul-22 15:23:22

Yannik Sinner now has two sets. I like him so hope he can win one more. He is so calm.

Smileless2012 Tue 05-Jul-22 15:23:31

Wow that 2nd set went quickly. Can't stop watching the ladies on BBC2. Hope it goes to a tie break.

Grandmadinosaur Tue 05-Jul-22 15:30:55

Wow that ladies Quarter game was one of those games where they both deserved to win.

Grandmadinosaur Tue 05-Jul-22 15:31:32

*quarter final

Wonderful match on Court 2. Tatiana Maria is a clever player. Such a talent and I love watching her slice the ball. Wish I could do that.

Callistemon21 Tue 05-Jul-22 15:44:37

The first time Tatjiana Maria has ever reached a semi-final in a tournament in 20 years of playing!
Well done.

Niermeier will have years of wins ahead of her.

Djokovic seems to be making a come back unfortunately. Oh well I can watch Norris now!

tickingbird Tue 05-Jul-22 15:52:55

Uh uh I spoke too soon!

Fortunately! ?

Nasal is a catholic and I think his constant checking is a version of crossing himself. If you watch it seems to follow the same routine I think.

Honeysuckleberries Tue 05-Jul-22 17:43:16

Autocorrect ? of course I meant Nadal.
