WIMBLEDON 2022

That's almost exactly the champion's prize money for next week's ITF M25 in Roehampton, so he should ask for a wild card, beat a few guys ranked 300-700, and donate it. I've got a day off, I could go down there and heckle.

Nicky to win Wimbledon but get 80% of his prize money fined would be my favourite outcome.

The dissonance created by the miserable, joyless sod winning Wimbledon would be a sight to behold.

He was full of joy when he won the doubles at the Aussie!

Surprised by this (Jesse) Garin (and the Desperadoes) comeback vs De Minaur.

garin is good vs a flat hitter, i expected him to be in this match

going 5th set tiebreak now

Terrific battle, possibly longest match of the tournament. Venus/J Murray 18-16 t/b loss last night was also a treat.

fucking english people and their obsession with rules

sinner up a set and a break on novak

What?! He was 3-0 down on the first when I looked!!

Novak on the ropes and a net cord saves him from double break!

Df, for DBL break

What a call from Sinner and hawkeye hands him the double break

Djoko breaks, played some excellent tennis.

Watch this rally if you can. The longest rally too.

Great hold from 15/40 by Sinner. Djoko will have to serve it out

What a brutal cross court fh on BP from Sinner

Djoko breaks, there were a couple of DFS in there though..

And breaks again, winning most rallies now.

sometimes it feels like he spots his opponent two sets to make it more interesting for himself

Sinner can't give DFS early on in the 5th, that's for sure

Think sinner has a chance if he goes for broke on his fh.

sinner throwing it away in this game imo

he just hasn't been as good hitting the ball on the move, which is a problem here

his drop shots keep hitting the net, not great bob

And a drop shot for the loss of serve.

joker just too good. he gets to everything.

oooof

Depressing. I figured at 0-2, he fades and loses in three or wins in five. No other result seemed likely.

Goffin only won something like six games off him in their QF a few years back; Norrie I can't see making an impact either. So that's another Sunday ruined. :)

Kyrgios to 'save' us all.

yeah looking good for norrie here but he has no chance vs djoko in the semi

norries path to reach a semi has to be one of the softest in awhile but good on him, still a huge accomplishment

Looks like Nadal is done?

Or not. He's kicking his serve in, not following through on bh, but his slice is causing Fritz all kinds of trouble - up a break in the 4th.

Kyrgios through in three.

Yup, could be going to a 5th

Nadal 3-0 at the tb decider. Inevitably.

poor fritz, he played fantastically well

I take huge pleasure in watching Rafa grind these wins out (now, maybe not 5+ years ago). Novak - not remotely.

<3 rafa, hes so tough

not dissimilar to novak suffering an ab injury midmatch vs fritz @ 21 AO & still winning in 5

Well done to Jabeur!

Rybakina making Halep struggle with the power of her shot making.

Won the first.

At the 2nd and the rallies are coming in. Both playing well.

3 DFs from Halep, who played some great stuff but unfortunately the power from Rybakina is putting a lot of pressure on Halep.

3 break back points for Halep

Broken, Rybakina goes off the boil.

2 DFS from Halep to hand it again!! :-(

No easy gimmes this time. Two aces.

The difference in this is the serving.

Another df for deuce..

Awesome return for the match!!
