We'll see, Bob. Admittedly its been 4 years since they last played, but I haven't seen anything from Pav to suggest she can change her losers mentality (i.e beaten before she's even stepped on the court) v Williams.

Masterclass atm from Stefanos.

today was her first non retirement non WO win over Vika. 0-5 in completed matches before today.
Her QF history at Slams is a concern, but Serena has declined rapidly over the past 5 years, especially on clay. Will be interesting to see what Ryba can do today. |

For grass lovers, play in Nottingham is about to resume.

It's still Paula Badosa Gibert for you, not Gilbert!

· 44m Inverdale saying it would be “brilliant theatre” if Federer got the crowd in the stadium only to announce to them that he was withdrawing. I honestly wonder how Inverdale’s brain works, it’s astounding |

I still have to do some gimmicks after I had to give up on the Bouzkova/Muchova one.

I was told Iga hurled her racquet in disgust today. Will Rafa ever practice with her again when he finds out?
|
|
By:
Yes, he will mentor her into becoming a better human.

ATP R16 at RG have produced some classics over the years but very disappointing so far.

The Burrage!

Edy was doubting Burrage's grass credentials. All Brits have grass credentials!

what a potty mouth Vika. |

By:
edy blinded by hate when it comes to grass. He can't be taken seriously.

By:
Not my fault it's a **** surface.

Who can stop Burrage in Nottingham?
|
|
By:
you're the only German I know of that prefers clay over grass.

Vandeweghe

By:
In general, Germany has barely any grass courts outside of the tournaments that keep popping up because people want Federer and Kerber on their strong surfaces. Almost all outdoor courts are clay.
|
|
By:
Putting on grass courts is a good business idea really too, because top players will always prefer to spend as little time in the UK as possible.
|
|
By:
Does anyone have more power than Burrage?

Vandeweghe.

London, to be much more specific, Edy.

that tax for players is bad across all of UK.
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
No, UK in general. There is some tax law that makes it expensive to play in the UK. Like, for every day they spend there, they have to give money to the UK taxman from their all-year sponsorship money or something.
|
|
By:
I'm sure some good accountants can con your way out of that.
|
|
By:
So if you are the organisers of a grass tournament abroad, you have a bit of an in-built advantage to attract the top players.
|
|
By:
so last year was great for mugs ranked just below 100 as they got full prize money from Wimbledon and didn't have to spend a day there? (So got to keep everything?)
|
|
By:
Not sure how much sponsorship money the mugs ranked just below 100 get.
|
|
By:
As, from what I remember, it's really about having to give away the money you get from adidas and sorts.

Fed out.

Will Medvedev be #1 after RG, he needs final, and Djokovic to not make final.
