The Tennis!!!

[ThinAir]

Great to watch

Also a talented linguist according to his ATP profile

http://www.atpworldtour.com/Tennis/Players/Top-Players/Dustin-Brown.aspx

As you see he speaks German, English and err Jamaican??

I caught bits of this and turned on just as Brown was seeing for the match. Looks to be a pretty talented player; certainly one to watch!

Jamaican, maybe Patois?

So the England team that are more than likely going to win The Ashes this summer aren't British?

Technically it's the England & Wales Cricket team as they represent the England & Wales Cricket Board.

At the rate players are going off injured this year, we'll be lucky we have to fit players to play the final

Was thinking something like this earlier. 5 today, including Tsonga... Which kind of leaves only Federer, Djokovic and Murray in the mens side of things.

The women's (apart from the presence of Serena) is as wide open as it has been for a few years, don't your think?

Lu is making Murray work for it as well!

Edit: Maybe Not....

Federer is in trouble now. What's going on this year?

 

[ThinAir]

One of the strangest ones I have seen/can remember.

Do you think we are seeing some of the new talent starting to shine?

 

[Brandane]

Federer beaten too!

Looking better for you-know-who by the day!

My two choices to win Wimbledon this year are out.Now what?

I hope that Murray can do it.

Inverdale and Barker on form with super-strength BBC crassness.

Good wins for Andy and Laura yesterday. Well done!!!!!

I can just about put up with Sue Barker because she was a top player in her day; but John Inverdale? A never-was, ubiquitous hack. Almost as crass as Gary Richardson, who IMO sets the world standard.
There was a welcome new voice on the BBC team. I didn't realise who it was on the radio, but she reminded me of Michael Jordan's athletics contributions i.e. knowledgeable, good humoured and self-effacing. Turns out it's Anne Keothavong.

Not that I really give a toss BUT how come Roger Federer isn't allowed to wear white shoes with orange soles (yeah, i know it goes against the Wimbledon dress-code blah blah blah) but Serena Williams is allowed to wear a huge pair of orange bloomers under her skirt number?

Two soles loses out to one arse!

Good point davyo - it didn't do them much good though - both knocked out already.

OT, but why have you a piccie of Tarja Halonen as your avatar?

Just curious, like.
