Wimbledon 2017

Wawrinka is on his way out!!

That's a massive result for Murray.

Karlovic/Bedene was insane! No break of serve until the final game!

Yep, absolute epic. Bedene eventually won it 6-7 7-6 6-7 7-6 8-6

Probably my favourite 2 weeks of the year. I don't think Murray will do it again, he's out of form and his body is creaking a little. Both Rafa and the Fed have been looking supreme lately, if I had to tip one for the title, it would probably be the chap from Mallorca.

On the womens side it's much more open. Pick one from about 10 and Konta is in there with a shout - although grass is not her best surface, but he did beat Kerber and Ostapenko in one day last week.

Lets hope he isn't tested .

I enjoy watching Wimbledon, but get a bit bored of the predictable coverage of people queueing overnight to get in.

Eugenie Bouchard is out in the first round and, for me, that signals the end of the women's tournament.

Yesterday was fun...

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Looks like Murray is out.

Broke down again

Just on way back after a cracking day. Had centre so little disappointed at Federer match but been so many times it wasn't bad as the wozniacki v babos match was very decent for 2 sets.

Shame Boulter has the hallmarks of a brit - potential but no bottle.

£8.50 for a pimms this year!! When will it stop

No disrespect but that's an awful tip to be fair. Rafa will be the first to admit that grass is his least favourite surface. Fed, Murray, Raonic are all better shouts with Cilic and Zverev as outsiders.

Pliskova or Kvitova for the women's with Coco Vandeweghe as an outsider.

 

[Seagull]

Love Wimbledon. Anyone got be any spares? Djokovic & Kvitova to win, maybe ...

 

[Frutos]

Jo Konta takes the first set of her second round match against Donna Vekic, having been facing two set points at one stage.

 

[Simster]

My tip is for Azarenka to reach the last 4, maybe even the final. She absolutely smashed Catherine Bellis* a couple of days ago after a first set wobble, and looked good again today.



* I'd quite like to do this myself.

Agreed, Grass is not Rafa's favorite surface, but do not forget he has won it before, and is bang in form, if he gets through week 1 he is a great shout for me.

 

[Frutos]

Konta finally gets through 7-6 4-6 10-8

Fantastic game, very close all the way.

Hell of a game. Could of gone either way.

The plucky Brit seems to be doing OK against Herr Braun...

Very entertaining match so far, a lot of shot variety particularly from Brown.
