And breathe…!

Smileless2012 Fri 08-Jul-22 15:56:56

Is this some kind of ploy from Novax? Still can't bring myself to watch.

TillyTrotter Fri 08-Jul-22 15:58:30

Has Novak put his lucky hat on for this set?

Parsley3 Fri 08-Jul-22 17:35:39

Come on Norrie!!!

Cam can hold his head high, he played well ❤️

PamelaJ1 Fri 08-Jul-22 17:56:38

? so now it’s the naughty Australian against the man that was naughty in Australia.
Should be a good match. I will be watching on a big screen.

Novak has never won a set against Kyrios......wow!

LauraNorderr Fri 08-Jul-22 18:03:51

Don’t know who I’d rather support, two brilliant players but anti-vax and fibs v bad attitude and gamesmanship.
Maybe I’ll just sit in the sun with my Pimms and my book.

Sparklefizz Fri 08-Jul-22 18:04:29

Cam played so well! It was a great match.
As I dislike Novak even more than I dislike Kyrgios, I shall be rooting for him, K, to win .... and I never thought I'd say that!

Grandmadinosaur Fri 08-Jul-22 18:05:53

I won’t be watching the final. Worst case scenario for me.

Grandmadinosaur Fri 08-Jul-22 18:06:30

Yes Cam did himself proud.

fairfraise Fri 08-Jul-22 18:06:57

Well I saw Nick K talk for the first time today and he sounded just like any other player. He plays tennis well. So who knows.

Sweetpeasue Fri 08-Jul-22 18:07:44

So disappointed but Norrie did so well in this tournament.
Not sure how I feel about the final. Not enamoured with either player.

maddyone Fri 08-Jul-22 18:08:53

Oh no, so disappointed that Norris didn’t manage it. sad

maddyone Fri 08-Jul-22 18:09:05

Just put TV on for the ladies’ final. Some pouty woman is going on about ladies ‘ levellin’ up. What! No thanks. I ‘ turn it back on when the proper match starts

Grandmadinosaur Sat 09-Jul-22 14:04:58

I don’t always watch all the build up but DH put it on for me thinking he’s being useful but had to turn it off. All that droning on.
Back now.
I’m team #Ons

Men’s finals day!
I think probably quite a few people would agree with me when I say I don’t really like either of them.
Djokovic, well it’s all been said about him and how people struggle to warm to him.
Kyrgios is a brat, there’re no two ways about it, and I am definitely more a Roger Federa/ Tim Henman type of woman, but on balance I’m going to be rooting for Kyrgios.

It’s going to be pretty hot out there for them isn’t it?
Our outdoor weather station (in the shade) is showing 22deg. already. We’re about twenty miles south west of Wimbledon.
It should be an interesting match. As one sports writer in the paper said, it depends which Nick Kyrgios turns up as to how things progress !

Millie22 Sun 10-Jul-22 10:26:53

Difficult day indeed when you don't like either of them. I can't believe I'm saying this but I actually want Kyrgios to win. A bad Australian or someone who was bad in Australia.

Missing Rafa ☹

maddyone Sun 10-Jul-22 11:15:50

I don’t like either of them so as far as I’m concerned it’s a pity they’re the two finalists.

merlotgran Sun 10-Jul-22 13:10:13

I’d like Kyrgios to win…if he behaves himself.
