Great match on SKY 407

Grandmadinosaur Fri 19-Jul-24 15:26:56

I am now thanks Notagran

No, and do not intend to. It doesn't interest me.

crazyH Fri 19-Jul-24 15:32:38

No

Grannybags Fri 19-Jul-24 15:34:39

I would if I could but don’t have Sky!

Jealous now 😁

NotAGran55 Fri 19-Jul-24 16:30:08

😮 oh no!

Grandmadinosaur Fri 19-Jul-24 16:40:08

That was scary but he came through 😀

NotAGran55 Fri 19-Jul-24 16:44:49

Awesome 🤩
He’s the comeback king in this tournament. Can’t wait for the Olympics doubles with Carlos.

Grandmadinosaur Fri 19-Jul-24 20:21:00

Me too. Surely potential gold medal winners 🤞

A bump for this. He is currently playing doubles - it’s available on the red button.

Carlos is on fire!

Anniebach Sat 27-Jul-24 18:49:45

Yes

NotAGran55 Sat 27-Jul-24 18:54:42

I’m watching. Stress!

NotAGran55 Sat 27-Jul-24 18:58:59

Just like my dad

Grandmadinosaur Sat 27-Jul-24 20:05:43

Little Rafa is too cute .

tickingbird Sat 27-Jul-24 20:25:35

Yes

He’s off to a flying start again today after yesterday’s fantastic performance.

Grandmadinosaur Sun 28-Jul-24 18:37:59

I missed seeing him today. Love the name suggested for the doubles Nadalcaraz - brilliant!

Andy Murray putting us through the wringer as usual at the moment. !

Pittcity Sun 28-Jul-24 19:41:22

OMG!!!!

NotAGran55 Mon 29-Jul-24 06:40:10

I’m going to miss the Rafa/Novak match today because I’m at work 😩

Pittcity Mon 29-Jul-24 13:19:01

It's a bit warm at Roland Garros 🥵

Labradora Mon 29-Jul-24 14:11:12

Novak is winning 6:1 second set 4:1.
Novak fitter and more match fit having reached Roland Garros finals although Alcaraz beat him there.
Glad our wonderful champion Rafa retiring this season : don't want to see him trounced like this.
Novak ( our other wonderful champion) just winning 'cos he can. Rafa would expect and has got "no quarter".
Always a privilege and a pleasure to see our great champions in action.
Let the wonderful youngsters start to take the Torch now........

How do you watch the tennis. I keep trying iplayer but no tennis.

Labradora Mon 29-Jul-24 16:05:39

Watching in IPlayer.
Sorry !!!

Bellasnana Mon 29-Jul-24 17:01:38

I watched the doubles match until the tv coverage stopped abruptly just before the final set.

Watched the singles today but felt very sad to see Rafa go out in straight sets. Hoping he and Alcaraz have a better run in the doubles.
