chickencam Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 He was masterful last night Been a strange Wimbledon so far, this is always my favourite 2 weeks of the year. Laura did really well yesterday too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, only 2 more wins to go. Although hearing he lost 4 games in a row made my heart sink Come on Andy Ax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Good to see he got through fairly easily even though he wasn't playing his best tennis! Think Djokovic looks pretty unbeatable at the moment though... Shame about Laura- she seemed a bit overwhelmed by it all. She so talented though and such a lovely girl too.

Daphne Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 The other big match yesterday - Williams/Lisicki - was fabulous though. Excellent tennis and really entertaining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Looking forward to tomorrow's matches, hope that Andy isn't on too late because we are moving ED into her new flat in the evening, and for once I have a day off when there is good tennis and a massive ironing pile to attack.

sparkysmum Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) There have been so many surprises this year, so cant rule anything out but hopefully Andy will do it tomorrow Was so thrilled for Sabine Lisicki, winning against Williams, what a totally lovely player she seems to be. Come on Andy Edited to change saltire Edited July 3, 2013 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Apparently she is allergic to grass, not sure if that means hayfever or something else I would like Lisicki to win the ladies competition now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 totally agree, she is a breath of fresh air, happy and unaffected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Apparently she is allergic to grass, not sure if that means hayfever or something else I would like Lisicki to win the ladies competition now. I have wanted her to win the past few years I have seen her play. I love how happy she is when meeting people and seems such an open, genuine person. I really did think her Wimbledon was over when I saw she was up against Williams so am very pleased she won that game. It is an exciting final this year, with no real idea who is going to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkysmum Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 Just heard that Janowic is referred to as the Poleveriser He has a 150mph serve from a height of 6'8" Look out Andy. Above is a pic of him on a post Olympic walkabout in the High St. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 The game on at the mo is really good - Djokovic v Del Potro. Really feel for them playing for over 4 hours in this heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I only turned on to see how Murray was getting on, assuming the first match would be over - what a match! I doubt the final will be as exciting as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 What an amazing match- one of the all time greats! Love Del Potro- such a gutsy player. Lets hope Andy gets through his match and Djokovic is a little tired after all his exertions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Phew! Another cracking match - well done to Jerzy Janowicz, but Murray was brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 What a match Sparkysdad and I have been celebrating in advance but what a final it promises to be Andy is the world No2, the US Open champion, the Olympic champion and fingers crossed on Sunday will be Wimbledon champion too Come on Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 What a men's semi finals day The first match was fantastic, neither deserved to lose and was played with such a lovely sporting spirit. Andy had me worried for a bit, but all set for an amazing weekend of sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 We were glued to the first Men's semi, it was an outstanding match wasn't it Unfortunately we had to go out and would have missed the final set but luckily it was on in the pub. Then we went out to dinner and used the moby to keep up with Andy, before rushing home to see the 4th set. I will miss the Ladies Final today - but I would like Lisicki to win, she is very talented as well as being so nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 What an amazing day of tennis yesterday! So pleased Andy won, not just because I wanted him too, but after Janowiz's moaning about when they were going to close the roof he really didn't endear himself to me. I said to my hubby that if he got through, I would want Djokovic to win and I never want him to win That said, the interview with him afterwards he seemed almost human! So roll on tomorrow and *fingerscrossed* Andy finally winning Looking forward to Lisicki winning today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 The town was buzzing with reporters yesterday in preparation for todays final, great atmosphere. The Scottish Sun newspapaer was out too and this brought a bit of glam to the town. A couple of pics Daisy, our Yorkie caught the eye of the Sun photographer and after a lovely photoshoot I took this. Daisy and the Sun girls. What glamour, what fun Come on Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
