WIMBLEDON 2014

Rosol has balls of steel. How many players would even have made it into a tie-break from 5-6, or actually won the first game of the third set?

Prob worth remembering that Rosol did it in five from a set down in 2012

Kyrgios has saved six MPs vs Gasquet so far. Fifth one was called a DF but he was saved by a Hawkeye overrule

Really impressed by Vesely gutting out the win over Monfils after all of Gael's antics

Diyas is a mental rock. Not just the first set - completely lost track of how many deuces that 4-4 game on CSN's serve went to, and she won it with another big return

Then she lost her serve from 30-0 up, sob

Kyrgios saves another MP

SIMULDRAMA DAY

Ah c'mon Kyrgios! Basically the only Australian player who's not a shithead

Also Gasquet is a wimp and isn't sexy anymore.

kyrg!

9 MPs that's crazy

Kyrgios was 1mm from losing on a DF, lol. Had to save MPs in every service game from 4-5 and then served out to love. LOL @ Wuss obv.

Diyas vs CSN is such a ridiculously tight match, I swear I've seen neither win more than two pts in a row

some super rallies in Watson/Kerber, Watson really has improved her attacking tennis - FH is unrecognisable

would not have expected bepa to beat vekic

This Janowicz chap seems fun

Even if he's a total gru-

Bepppppppppppppppppppppppppa

happy for Bepa and she played much better than in R1 (not hard) but eesh, Vekic seems to take one step forward and two steps back, this is the kind of match she needs to win

gonna be on No 1 court today ^_^ except the forecast -_-

and I was slightly surprised that they didn't put Konjuh/Wozniacki on No 1, seemed like the obvious pick of today's women's R3s after Petra/Venus.

also I have been VERY RESTRAINED this year but the fucking football has been siphoning off stupid amounts of attention from Wimbledon this year. Judging everyone who prefers it very hard indeed

lol thank you for your restraint because THE MOMENT a match starts I switch over from Wimbledon!

But today its the first day of no WC so I would be able to see more. Except aargh I have a load of other shit to do because I would try not to do it because of the WC.

THE MOMENT a match starts I switch over from Wimbledon!

EVEN if it's Zarina Diyas????????? ;_;

irl I have just taken the policy that if anyone breathes a word about football in conversation with me I am just going to respond by talking about tennis with no explanation

i'm generally pro World Cup but not a fan when i'm trying to find red button tennis and it's just giving me Ghana-Portugal

I judge that to be ok, as long as its not done in anger. xp

It's definitely done in anger -_-

;-)

sportlemon is listing 'Zahlavova Strycova' as a match along with 'Halep-Tsurenko' etc.
would watch tbh

lol lex, the World Cup is the only time I'm vaguely interested in football. :p Also, there are a lot of hot dudes. /shallow

anyway, it's not that bad this time around for me because of the time difference - the first football match tends to clash with the last tennis match of the day but other than that, I still get to watch/follow everything.

Konjuh about to be bageled by Woz. :/

Super sloppy play from Li gives BZS the first set.

BZS is amazing

BZS has been impressive yeah but seriously Na, what the hell are you doing? All those missed putaways...

haha wow the challenge

holy shit

Oh dear Li...

omg lol

li no

having another slump year after a slam win

just watched an astonishing point between hewitt and janowicz. the latter playing astonishing drives but hewitt winning with a lob out of nowhere

lol what an absurd way for that match to end, but pretty much sums up Li's day. great win for BZS, the way she served on big points and esp her volleying were lovely to watch. xp

janowicz is a spectacle & i want him to win the whole thing, although he won't

meanwhile, my kitten is obsessed with Gilles Simon: http://instagram.com/p/pv4pK3RFcr/ :D

forgot that Safarova-Cibulkova was a 3rd round match. seems like Lucie's to lose on recent form

that's a great kitten

fabulous first set between Dolgopolov and Dimitrov - so much crazy shotmaking. Really would be happy with either of them going through. <3 <3

going a bit nuts switching between this match and Kvitova/Williams - Venus serving up some vintage grass court magic.

was hoping for a deep run from Kvitova here but it's so good to see Venus playing this well again

Dimitrov and Dolgopolov at one set all. :)

Nice to see that Grigor has grown some tennis brains to go with his talents.. deciding to chip and charge on his return games was enough to rattle Dolgopolov who, up to the point he got broken, had been practically impenetrable on serve.

Petra isn't even playing terribly but Venus is just so tough right now. <3

Petra bossing this TB. Every one of their matches has gone to three sets...

NID

this is such an intense match - centre court audience seem almost stunned into silence on every point. shame it's a third round, feels like it should be a final!

Incredible defence from Venus... Petra looks gassed.
