Who do we think is going to win today? I think Barty.

Well this is boring

Yes, last time was 2018 , we saw Serena Williams. I had the best time, the sun was shining and the atmosphere was electric. Have registered for the ballot each year but this year is so different. The people that had tickets for last year were able to keep them for this year ( which is fair enough) so there were none to be had. They also started at a lower capacity and they said they would release more as the tournament went on. The email came tonight and I joined the queue whilst my husband was watching the football. I just took the first ones offered, centre court, fairly near the back but who cares. i will get to see Djokovic, Coco Gauff and then Federer . I just need to arrange some childcare !

Omg so lucky! Hope you have an amazing time! I got the same email, but only just seen it 20 mins ago. I’m currently in the queue but doubtful there’s anything left. But will keep a lookout over the next few days for more emails. I’m off work next week but think if I did get tickets I’d give them to my parents as much as it would pain me

What's everyone's thoughts on Wimbledon banning Russian and Belarusian players? I wish more tournaments would follow suit to be honest...

I think it's disgusting. People shouldn't be discriminated against over something they cannot help. The players should be allowed to make a living and weakening tournaments is poor for sponsors and spectators. If your leader going in to a war that wasn't necessary is enough to ban sports people who don't play any part in it then when Bush/Blair did their own war Brits and Yanks shouldn't have been involved.

So glad to see Federer through to the second week!

I think you can log in any time though and get in the queue and it will tell you what’s available, so try early in the morning If you don’t have any luck tonight. I was really quick but still waited prob 25 mins in the queue. Once you’ve selected them they give you ten mins to check out and pay. I guess some people will be timed out and others just won’t want what’s on offer. I think they are only selling one or two days in advance so there should be other opportunities. Good luck I hope you get something. My head is whizzing and I’m try to figure out who’s going to take and collect my kids from school and possibly have them over night

Knowing what a special chance seeing Wimbledon is, I’d offer to have your kids if I could hopefully you’ll sort something!! I will definitely keep checking. My parents were supposed to go on Friday but somehow my brother messed the tickets up for them so if I can get some they’ll go to them. I just really want to see Federer play. Even if he plays in the seniors once he’s retired I don’t care

Whatever was lacking in the Ladies singles final is certainly abundant in the doubles, absolutely fabulous match

Howe much are the strawberries and cream?
