Getting a match thread up now in case the phorum breaks again.
BK in the Wimbledon final having taken three big scaps in Collins, Ostapenko and Rybakina in three straight matches is interesting. She's had a fairly lean period in singles since she won the French Open three years ago but could the perception after that win of her being a clay specialist have hidden grass court GOAT potential in plain sight? She hasn't played Paolini since 2018.
Raducanu must be kicking herself though. What a chance to get to play a Wimbledon final the day before England lose to Spain in the Euros.
She'd definitely have had the crowd singing Sweet Caroline at her again just like in New York.

Score was decimation of a career, can't remember exactly
I was about to guess Bartoli, that must have been a few years or so before
No. I promise. It's because the Lisicki catastrophe and the Genie catastrophe are right next to each other
at least the year she won, think she also made the 2007 final against Venus
this is a tennis phorum! That question is like asking what hair color Jenna Jameson is on pornforum.com
Are tickets for the women's final same price as the men's?
Just wondering.

I remember SabineIsGoat posting the picture of Kvitova/Novak holding up their trophies together at the dinner party thing, but then realised he posted the old one from their 2011 win instead where they'd also won at the same time lol.
normally I'd say 
but since you have also never heard of Måneskin or Lil Wayne it might just be true.

Grant is out. I need some heroics from Paolini now.
I only know sports people, the world outside of that doesn't exist to me
Second best part of this year's tournament has to be Osty dismissing a member of her box with a hand signal and them all pointing at themselves to ask who she wanted gone
he needs JP to win 9 games or more. Can't do that and lose in two. And if it goes 3 I win.

true. It's not been a very good tournament. Only some comedic highlights.

Nice of Paolini to take a comfort break while you're doing this.
If Emma had an actual coach she could have won this. Someone like Montgomery's coach Nunez.
I just looked it up, apparently maneskin have had 2 top 10 UK hits, but then the last time anyone took notice of charts was decades ago, even top of the pops gave up
Only 7 of the last 23 Wimbledon final have gone to 3 sets
Yeh, kind of what I was thinking in value for money v some epic men's finals
just do four solid games, then you can do all the mugging you want Jasmine!
I'm actually quite surprised how much the Paolini is annoying BK. She's such an experienced doubles grinder, would have thought she could just block it out.
Going to a final set, what's wrong with this dumb forum keep breaking down
At least my prediction of close is looking more accurate now.
Tom Cruise looking at BK thinking 'You can't handle the truth'
BK will start the 3rd with bathroom break momentum though!
Congrats on comp win Sam ,presume you win even if Paolini wins now by virtue of being closest ?
What's the betting the interviewer mentions Novotna to Krejcikova YET again trying to draw tears for the showreels and click bait

Thanks.
That bathroom break by Jasmine was THE PONR for Barbora

1.01 if it's Rishi, 1.05 if it's Annabel, 1.45 if it's the Scottish woman.
Paolini challenging when obviously wrong and not challenging when even her opponent has walked back to serve again.
really want Barbora to win, can't stand Paolini's annoying and aggressive fist pumps
I'm rooting for Paolini,BK already got a major win ,doubt Paolini will get another chance.
Paolini needs to hold and take a bathroom break
Championship point and she flops that is easy shot, must be feeling pressure
BK is absolutely cracking. But can paolini seize her destiny here
Jasmine really is the worst challenger since King Roger
She's uncracking, 2 massive points when she needed them

insert Osty GIF
Two time Slam Champion Barbora Krejcikova! Jana Novotna only won one.
Hmm, feels a little unsatisfying - both choked rather at points, but BK just choked less.
One of the tamest celebrations I've ever seen, you'd think she just won, you'd think she'd just won Bloomfield Hills challenger
Don't expect a Bluray release of this one. But well done BK.
By the way,woman between Martina and Billie Jean,is Ann Jones former Wimbledon champ .
Has there ever been a flashy Czech player, they all seem solid, robotic and unstylish
That wasn't her to begin with, there was another woman at the start of the match sitting down between them
Think Billie Jean just said to Martina "think i could've beaten the pair of them at my age "
Lucie Safarova had a bit of flair ,but yes the others are all a bit robotic .
messhe is rather cutesey to be fair in this interview, like her a bit more now

well done 1.05 backers.
Novotna and Navratilova used to be lovers
That was prob a 1.05 shot too before it happened

did they have strap ons in the 1980?
never thought I'd ask that on the tennis forum
maybe jemma jamesson and p0rn fan caramba can tell us

well done Jana Novotna on now having two grand Slams as a coach in addition to the one as a player.
before my time, but I would think so. Dildos have been around forever.
who's the blonde woman yapping to her at the names board
Scenes on BBC! BK just saw Jana's name on the board of all previous winners and broke down.
never heard of her, she looks like a Sue Barker rip off
