WIMBLEDON 2014

Er, the first SP save. It was I think the fourth MP save that was the funny one.

Nice to see Lucic can still smack the crap out of the ball. Not so nice to see her attempt a drop-shot.

Kirilenko actually played well tho her transition game was pretty lousy there.

I thought her volleys were weirdly dire, given that they used to be one of her actual strengths. Returns were on point though, she's never used that BH DTL return with such purpose.

Makarova/Date-Krumm was a tremendous match, yet another tremendous epic match that Kimiko lost ;_;

Nice to see Ana Konjuh win her first Slam match with a bagel in the third over Erakovic!

Not nice to see Verdasco fuck up against that moron Matosevic.

Nice to see Lucic-Baroni get that set against Azarenka! Keep it up! 15-year anniversary over her Wim SF run!

Er, she didn't get that set yet. First day of a Slam always scrambles my brain

Mirjana blows three SPs and gives the game away on a shitty challenge :(

:((((((((

can someone I like please win a match, any match

Henman: "Earlier I was asked who I thought the best volleyer in the top 100 is"
McEnroe: "I'll tell you what my answer to that would be...RAFA NADAL"

Surely this can't happen too often. Meusburger wins 12 straight games against King, yet neither set is a bagel (she won them from 0-5 down in the first; at 5-0 up in the second, King won three games)

lol @ Sloane, when I saw she was playing Kirilenko I knew she was toast

really bbc, the best you can do his a nole virtual walkover?

yassss so glad that twat Evans lost, love Andrey Kuznetsov's BH
simultaneous Kuznetsov drama!

Fognini/Kuznetsov = v appealing to watch for me. PS I am incredibly shallow.

Muguruza saved 13 MPs against Vandeweghe only to lose the match with two consecutive DFs ;______;

SO ANNOYED at Vandeweghe winning any matches

Hi from the Wimbledon queue! Gonna see Bencic later

She's in my fantasy team

hi does anyone know how court 3 ticketing works? I've got court 3 tickets for tomorrow (!) but it's also open to grounds pass people right? are only half the seats ticketed or is that under the assumption that people won't wanna sit there all day?
never been to Wimbledon before

Klizan about to serve for the 1st set

Nadal played a terrific first point, gets it to 0-30 but Klizan plays aggressive to win the 1st

lololol this doesn't get old <3

that DF shank to get broken!

those wasted break chances will bite him in the ass

Nadal did play really well to break again in the 3rd - expecting to pull through now.

Bouchard about to start in court 1

ugh Sweta lost to De Brito??

Bepa ;o

just saw that Victoria Duval won ^_^

Had an excellent day yesterday, much better than the overcrowded and stressful day I had in 2013. Not sure why the crowds seemed less intense this year but grateful for it. Report - http://unforcederrani.tumblr.com/post/89847620832/wimbledon-2014-report-day-2

Virginia Wade is so pressed about how rich, successful and likeable Li Na is.

stakhovsky took the first set against gulbis, pretty cool match

Nara playing really well vs Venus

I post that and she immediately loses six points in a row from 4-1 up in the TB, ugh

...and Gulbis goes down a break in the second. Def thought this might be an upset with Gulbis struggling so much vs Zopp in R1

I don't know or care much about the actual tennis but who are the hottest female players to look out for this year?

Virginia Wade

Stakhovsky celebrates the one-year anniversary of his Federer upset by upsetting the man who upset Federer at RG. I wish we didn't know Stakhovsky was a dick, he doesn't seem like it on court

Is Bepa really serious about this comeback? I thought she'd abandoned it...

A-Rad does her best to choke set 1 v Casey Delinquent but ultimately can't...starts set 2 better and you already have the impression CD is hanging on for dear life.

Stakhovsky is fun to watch on a fast court, good to see him defending his points.

my god this bepa match is hilariously awful

Actually, the Radwanska/Dellacqua match started out really well, the first four games were wonderful. Then Dellacqua was horrible for a few games, then Radwanska was horrible for a few games, and then the default asserted itself.

If Bepa loses this I think we can be sure she's done.

She fought through

Bepa looked psychotic at the handshake and she _won_. If she'd lost, I reckon the entire crowd would have run in terror.

Murray monstering some poor sod called Rola (R-O-L-A Rola)

Tuning in just to see Chardy choke against that twat Matosevic -_-

The local tissues have got 'behind' Marinko lately, telling us what a good fellow he is, not at all the obnoxious clot we'd all assumed.... spose yeah, he is Likeable Simon from Get Smart next to the likes of Tomic.

Matosevic is a bit of a dick, but I did kind of have sympathy for him when his "supporters" kept calling him a nickname he has previously said he hates. Ugh, the tendency to assume that people are OK with nicknames shits me no end, so I felt for him for that one moment. Not at other times!

chardy/matosevic are hitting some massive groundstrokes

I LOVE YOU FOREVER PETRA, PLEASE WIN

So much frustration rn. Kuznetsov played so well at the end of that set and blew 4 SPs only for Ferrer to outgrind him in the TB. Then you have Chardy choking every BP opportunity against Matosevic, who is even more dislikeable than Tomic because he doesn't even have the excuse of a fucked-up family, only to tamely surrender his own serve. UGHHHHH

Matosevic declaring that he's no politically correct = warning sign of the worst type of human in existence. TWAT

lol

4th set was all-time
