mjmooney Posted July 10, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 10, 2023 I'm not a huge tennis fan, but this thread was nearly at the bottom of page 2, which quite surprised me. Anyway, when did Chrith Eubankth take up tennis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Urgh djokovic is such a boring word removed. Going to win this at a canter, geezers ancient in tennis terms and nobody can even take a set. Going to win about 10 Wimbledons and can't even volley. Remember this guy playing now Berrettini, served like an absolute robot all grass season at queen's and all the way to Wimbledon final, lo and behold against djokovic serve went tits up and 1st serve % was about 40. Someone's got to step up soon surely?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Brerrettini doing the same today. Played well for a set but now looks average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such Is his dominance at Wimbledon he hasn't lost on centre court for 10 years and that was that final against Murray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he could easily have lost the first two sets. He just couldn't handle the Hurkacz serve which was incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted July 11, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 11, 2023 I thought Russian players were banned from Wimbledon? (Andrey Rublev - also a great movie by Tarkovsky). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were allowed back in if they renounced the flag essentially. All a bit daft. Let them in or have them out, the lip service to political grandstanding means nothing.

mjmooney Posted July 11, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 11, 2023 It's a pretty good indicator of how dislikeable Djokovic is, that a British crowd in 2023 can cheer for a Russian. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not cheap those Wimbledon center court tickets. The crowd just want the match to go on. He has plenty of support. He was signing loads of autographs earlier.
