🎾Calling all Wimbledon watchers🏆! Views and Comments?

The men's doubles is very exciting!

I might need another 🍷

Fabulous match. I’m afraid I had written Jasmine off part way through the first set and thought we were in for a short afternoon with a straight sets win for Barbora.
But then the second set was amazing and the third so exciting. Shame there can only be one winner.
Both players gave us a great afternoon of superb tennis and edge of seat entertainment.
I have had far too much Pimms and not enough food to soak it up
A snore d’oeuvre beckons.
Can’t wait for tomorrow’s match, more excitement, more Pimms, more food next time.
No chance of a nap tomorrow, straight in to ⚽️ 🎉

I was rooting for Jasmine Paolini. It was such a close call. She's definitely someone to watch and very likeable.

It will be great to see the Princess of Wales tomorrow. I hope she manages it ok as the men's final will most likely go to 5 sets so it will be a long afternoon if fatigue is her main problem.

Gutted for Jasmine.
When I saw her on Tuesday her energy filled the court. Such a lovely lady .
Congratulations to Barbora 🏆

It was reported that Djokovic had keyhole surgery to repair a torn meniscus.
It does seem to be a very short period of time to be playing high level sport again as it is recommended that sport should not be played for 3-6 months afterwards.

I had a horse that sustained a torn meniscus. He never did get better and was retired aged 12.

I tore mine two years ago.
Still waiting for a repair.

I have retired already, thank goodness 🐎

What a close match! Jasmine Paolini is so sweet. I hope she gets to the final next year.

I see the Princess of Wales is planning to attend tomorrow. I do hope it's one of her 'good' days, especially as William will be in Berlin.
I wonder who will 'buddy' her? Her sister, maybe?

I think it might be her two eldest children.

Don’t you think George will go to watch the football with his dad?

Hang in there Paolini.

They were there last year

Ooo it’s getting so tense.

Ah yes. That would be ideal!

3rd set excited

Come on Paolini. This is more like it.

Oh hell! Sam Smith is already mumbling and muttering! Why? Ash Barty and Macca are speaking up well. Is it because Ms Smith was such a mediocre player back in her (brief) day, she hasn't the confidence/excellence of her co-commentators?

I really should be gardening this afternoon but…😂

Mini magnums in the freezer.

He’s awful. His on court interview reminiscing about being a boy dreaming of being on centre court whilst cowering as the bombs rained down. Making a replica Men’s trophy out of cardboard. All designed to provoke sympathy for this brave man who’s succeeded against the odds.

The cupping of the ear when he’s pulled off a great shot; basically demanding the crowd acknowledge his brilliance. He’s arrogant and nasty when things don’t go his way. His petulant behaviour after the Rune match showed his lack of self awareness. He really does think he’s disliked because he’s so good; nothing to do with his behaviour.

If it looks like he’s about to win tomorrow I’ll switch off as can’t stand looking at his smugness.

I can't stand Djokovic. His attitude - his arrogance - his gamesmanship - all that bouncing of the ball before a serve. He does more bouncing if the game's not going well for him. Grrr. Totally unnecessary.

He's a brilliant player but unlikeable in my view. He is not a generous winner.

I hope he gets beaten in the final. C'mon Alcaraz.

Sorry, I just don’t like him. He’s a brilliant player but a nasty piece of work. I think the violin is less a tribute to his daughter and more a dig at the crowd who he knows don’t like him. Musetti’s tennis was so stylish and a pleasure to watch. Djokovic is a robot.

I’ll have everything crossed for Carlos on Sunday.

Agree 100%. Also, I do not believe he had surgery on his knee or he could not possibly be leaping around the court like a gazelle. It’s another of his sneaky tactics to make his opponents think he’s playing with an injury, and an excuse to fall back on should he lose.

As for the violin playing, if anyone believes that cringeworthy display is for his daughter they don’t know how he operates.

That nonsense in the Rune match shows how immature he is. Whether or not the crowd was booing he should not have risen to the bait as he just looked like a little kid running to the teacher to tell her ‘Miss, they’re being mean to me’ instead of ignoring it and moving on,

As you can guess, I’m not a fan!😂

Oh, clever.
It could also be interpreted as an insult to the man he has just beaten.

Still don't get it🤔.
Has he promised her one if he wins?
