Anyone for Tennis??

I will watch some but not all matches I need to figure out who everyone is again as the top few seem to change every couple of years now and I only really watch when it’s Wimbledon on. Sad that our top seed won’t be playing though.

I will watch some of the men's games, tomorrows with Jack Draper and Taylor Fritz should be a good one.
I also like watching Sinner play.

I don't watch much of the woman's competition, cannot warm to any of them these days. Have never liked the Williams sisters.
And then we know most of the Brits will be knocked out early, and Raducanu pulled out again (surprised not).

I might give it a go.
Just because my mum and daughter both loved Wimbledon.

Yes I will be watching. It’s the highlight of my year I love it.
I’ll miss seeing Carlos Alcaraz so rooting for the Brits. Looking forward to seeing the Williams sisters too. It’s a shame there’s to be no Emma Radacanu this year.

Definitely, I don’t tend to watch the earlier matches unless there’s a particular favourite playing.
Then once the quarter finals are on I’m glued!

My early viewing is very much dependent upon who is commentating and how frequently they pause for breath during the game. So much wittering at times.

Remembering our DF Lucca, still sadly missed especially during Wimbledon fortnight. 🎾😢

I don't know the names of the Brits and I thought the Williams sisters had retired years ago.

I'll be watching - in fact I'm already watching! Now that Rafa has retired and Carlos is still injured, my hopes are pinned on my other favourite Sascha Zverev, now the French Open Champion!

I love Wimbledon fortnight, and have even been lucky enough to be there in person a couple of times recently, on Centre Court, and No1 Court. Fantastic experiences both!

I'll be keeping a weather eye on the Brits and hoping for some of them to make it to week 2.

Take care everyone. Play! xxx

Not for me,nor the football,athletics all the way..

Yes. I always think of Lucca when Wimbledon starts, too.

I’ll be glued to the tv for the next fortnight. I love Wimbledon. I have been a few times and I could have been there on Sunday if I could have afforded the two tickets I got in the draw, but £200 each was way too much, so I’ll enjoy my armchair viewing yet again.
I’ll be supporting Sinner, won’t be watching any ladies tennis, especially not the Williams sisters, and I’ll have the commentators on very low volume or mute, depending on who it is.
Can of Pimms chilling nicely in the fridge.

I don't know the names of the Brits and I thought the Williams sisters had retired years ago.

Venus and Serena did retire from singles, that is why (for those who like them) it’s so great seeing them back playing together as wildcards.

My two favourite commenters are Martina and McEnroe, ‘specially if they’re together! They were among my favourite players back in the day.

Even though they’ll probably all be out on day 1, team GB have a lot of wildcards these year!

Love Wimbledon. Been twice through the ballot but no success in recent years.
The William's sisters will bring much needed interest, it's been a bit boring last few years. Was looking hopeful for Emma, she must be very disappointed as are her supporters. Would be great to see Jack Draper successful with Andy Murray's input. Have a fab tournament. Lots of strawberries & cream, Prosecco & Pimms.

Nice empty shops, uiet walks, builders in and a garden to nurture. Who wants o watch sport?

Just read that Jack Draper has now pulled out!

They are legends.

Will be wonderful to see them play again.

I don’t really follow tennis so didn’t realise that Alcaraz wasn’t playing. Are there any other players that I need to look out for? Most of my old favourites have gone.

Harriet Dart played so well against Ostapenko. Such a shame she lost in the end

Jack and Emma seem to suffer a lot of injuries. Sad they’re both out now

I’m exhausted now after watching Cam Norrie’s match. Wow Zheng is talented!

No. I’m afraid tennis leaves me cold. Ditto football. Cricket and golf in this house.

I love watching tennis and will be glued to Wimbledon whenever I am at home. I was very impressed with Harriet Dart and am hoping Katie Boulter will do well. I prefer the players who keep calm when they are losing and don’t show their frustration. My favourite player is Ugo Humbert who narrowly missed out in the finals at Eastbourne. I hope he will do better at Wimbledon.

I hate tennis and golf, afraid I'm not a sporty person...

I love it.
Watched The French Open and Eastbourne last week and now Wimbledon - lovely.,

Raducanu is always such a disappointment, illness, injury and retiring from a game. I don’t think she can cope with the pressure.

I love watching Ostopenko , so strong and a real character.
Harriet Dart gave her a good run for her money though.

I like Navratilova , John Lloyd and Henman as commentators.
Not keen on Annabelle Croft or Tracy Austin. They love the sound of their own voices .

Looking forward to all the big names and fabulous play.
