I’ll take the original as well. £50. The thread doesn’t get much traffic so this post will stay around. 
 

Radacanu won’t win another major (major being one of the big 4) 

I take no pleasure in saying it btw 

I'm not offering both. Only the original.

Original it is brother

Isner is a fair boring player.

He's Ace

Playing out of his skin. What chance have you got when he's getting in 85% of 1st serves , averaging about 120 mph?

I was being sarcastic owning to the amount of aces he's putting in. Players like him bore me.

I know. Frustrating to watch if you're a Murray fan though.

[redstrummer]

thought we were on for the comeback of all time but looks like he's blown it 

[maryhilldon]

Murray looks like he's playing well, I think only Djokovic could've beaten a serving performance like that from Isner. I think Murray could do well at the US Open.

[maryhilldon]

Isner isn't a cunt, seems like a lovely fella.  I'm rootin for him now.

Agree. I think only Djokovic could've overcome isner on that court tonight. You'd give Rafa a bit of a chance and maybe Berretini the way he was playing before he got covid but isner was unreal. When he's serving like that, on a grass court, you need to play pretty much a perfect match.

Nah. Focussed our tennis trip on the French open. Got too many expensive things going on this year, so really couldn't justify the expense. ?

What arsehole writes that pish? It’s obvious she cares about winning. Do you think she would  have got to where she is today without caring ? She ( Emma) is just trying to take the pressure off a wee bit with her comments.

Honestly,journalism in this country has went turd shaped.

TBF she doesn't sound that arsed about it. More "well I've won a major already so am not that bothered". Too casual about losing.  Imagine the kickback there'd be if any of ours said after Raith Rovers "it's ok we've won this before anyway"?

Not sure she is.

2 matches I'm really looking forward to today. 

Gauff vs Anisamova (???) first. I really like Anisamova. When she burst on to the scene a few years ago I thought she'd be a top 5 player quickly but for a few reasons, she hasn't got there. She's still got plenty of time though and is finally producing consistently. ? for her today 

Then later we've got Tsitsipas vs Kyrgios. I think it's all about whether can keep himself right mentally. He's a better grade court player than Tsitsipas and if he produces, he should win. ?

MON KYRGIOS!!!!!

He doesn't conform to the Wimbledon way, and I am all for it. He winds everyone up, bit of a cunt but I'm all for it.

His problem is more the other way around. He is so easily wound up. 

[maryhilldon]

He's a loose cannon.

Entertaining though.

Certainly but if you were playing against him would plan A not be 'mind games'?

Yeah. His biggest threat to him in most matches is himself. Especially if a few things go against him.

Posh union jack wavers. Arseholes. The BBC are a joke,  you'd think it was a GB team event.

Was coming home from work when news came in that Cameron Norrie made the last 8. Good stuff I thought then read that he is gagging for a trip to Ibrox. Go fuck yourself Norrie.
