Tennis #2 🎾

WHAT A DAY!
Had an absolutely amazing time watching centre court day. I’m on the train home now, absolutely shattered but that was fab

Decided to listen to Wimbledon radio via the app on my walk home from work.

Had the displeasure of having to listen to the interviewer speak to Alison Hammond, who said that:
- She was at Wimbledon but the tennis had gone over her head
- She watched the Alcaraz match but wasn’t staying to watch Emma
- The best part of her day was a burger for lunch. As these things “are about the food really”

I’m sure tennis fans who haven’t got tickets this year would be DELIGHTED to hear that

Anyway Andreeva in a bit of trouble on Court 12 but has just broken back. Hope she comes through, I really like her attitude

So many celebs get invited by sponsors and I don’t think any of them are tennis fans. It’s really annoying.

Actual footage of Alcaraz’s opponent warming up:

My daily moan that Andrew Castle annoys the life out of me

I’ll be watching Paige like a hawk at Wimbledon. She’s inadvertently hilarious!



And her gripping the trophy here like she won the tournament

Naomi Broady is really quite a good commentator/analyst.

 

[MyLittlePony25]

Sounds fine, have a wonderful time! What court do you have tickets for?

We have centre court tickets

Thank you everyone for your responses. We are super excited, will be making the most of our visit and strolling around everywhere. Hoping it’s not too hot though

The brands that fund these people should be named and shamed. I bet she was given a couple of tickets for centre court and they were empty all day apart from when she quickly popped on to get a photo.

There has to be a better much way for the brands to do things that don't screw over the people that are actually interested in tennis.

I think it’s the right decision for his body not to play in singles so soon after the procedure on his back but I hope he can manage doubles with Jamie

I think doubles with his brother - which while still important isn't so pressured - would be a perfect way to say goodbye (gonna cry this week whatever happens I think!)

Andy has withdrawn

 

[MyLittlePony25]

She did it, Katie turned it around to take the first set

 

[Hannahebee]

Andrey's outbursts are sad to watch.

 

[Yel]

How cute is this

 

[Yel]

The quality of the ”celebs” has definitely gone down though

I think that's the real rub. You expect Brad pit and Arianna grande types at the final sponsored by Ralph Lauren. But now all these Instagram bints get seats and happily admit they have no interest in tennis

Can't wait to see the pristine grass turn to shit after 2 service games. I do like how beaten up the court looks during the final. Almost like it tells a story.

 

[Suzesnooze]

I’ve only just seen this.

 

[Hannahebee]

If you were wondering who the lucky loser is who has replaced Andy in the draw it is David Goffin.

SO EXCITED!!!!!!
