He had the clay monkey running around like a c**t it was hilarious. Literally the funniest match I've ever watched.

 

Hes playing on this abit he's not normally quite so flamboyant 

why do you hate nadal? why is he a clay monkey when he's won all the slams in the toughest era of tennis ever?

Brace yourself guys, Janowicz is looking like he's going to send Pouille packing, we'll never hear the end of how he's the greatest to pick up a racquet soon.

lollollol 

 

Do we get a round up of the day like in snooker? From all 20 courts? lol

Blatant clay monkey, fair props for his career slam he was the man to beat for about 18-24 months. But in terms of being ranked among the best ever his career success is reliant on an extraordinary clay record, and if you listen to some people a lot of drugs.

That looks bad! Real shame as she was trying to hold all the doubles slams at the same time with Safarova.

Wouldn't be surprised if its her ACL. Watching Konjuh slip on a ball against Radwanska last year was a horrible sight, this is much worse.

Bye bye Jerzy lol

 

Still 3rd round a good run for such a poor player.

Beaten Dimitrov and Pouille on Grass this year, steady progress back from a long injury lay off ;)

 

The Foxestalk favourite aside an expected comfortable victory for Konta, Garcia next which will be an interesting match up, both possess a good serve, Garcia's all round game favours Grass more though.

Very steady lol I'm sure slowly but surely that top 10 player you predicted to be is on his way, at his own pace.

 

Should be more of a match, interestingly Konta is now the bookies fav to win the whole thing.

Few more Grand Slam Semi Final runs over the next year will push him up a bit.

 

More British overhype regarding Konta, considering her Wimbledon record she shouldn't be favourite. She's flopped so many times on Grass before, wouldn't be a surprise if she does it again.

Konta looks like the sort of person who would bring vegetarian food to a BBQ.

 

Womens tournament is wide open, could be anyone lifting the dish.

 

Hopeful for a Nadal-Federer final still.

Can't see that happening here, unless Murray goes out before the semi-final and Nadal doesn't. Rafa hasn't really played anyone at home on grass yet.

I'll be all over Nadal to beat Murray the way Rada has played this year. 

 

3-0 H2H record at Wimbledon and 9-1 in sets.

The last match being six years ago, and Murray having won it twice since then. I don't think that has much bearing on current form tbh.

 

I'd actually pick Cilic to beat Nadal provided they make the QF given how bad a matchup on grass he would be for Rafa. Like I said, he's played no grasscourt specialists yet and while he could do enough to power through 6/7 years ago I don't think that's the case anymore against someone who really knows what they're doing on grass.

After what he put Murray through on the red dirt, it would be a bit therapeutic for Murray to really rinse Fognini on a proper surface here.

I was right - it is therapeutic to watch Foggy struggle, flip his shit and the crowd enjoy it.
