Can he do it??

I'd love to get a ticket for Wimbledon. I've missed out in the ballot for the last 2 years. Most miffed.

Got 2 tickets because my son has been LTA coached and member for 5-6 years now, one of his coaches something to do with ballots don't know if that helped us. It's one of those event on my bucket list, got long way to go to accomplish the rest I must say, id better get a move on.????

You stand a better chance as a tennis club member than in the public ballot, though it will depend upon the number of club members who opt into the ballot & the distance from Wimbledon. We don't have a massive number of members who want to go as it's not cheap & most have been many times before. I used to rock up for the cheap evening tickets where you could just walk in, but recently the queues for that have made it not worthwhile.

Stan's playing very well, and the further he gets in a tournament, the better he plays. Wouldn't say it's a foregone conclusion that Nadal beats Thiem either - Thiem's the only person who's beaten Nadal on clay this year.

Called the first one right

Unbelievable in that final set, fair play to the Switzer

It was great to see Rafa back to his best, we're never going to see anybody as good as him on clay again.Muzza would have more ranking points if he'd beaten Stan but i think he might be relieved to have avoided playing Nadal in that form!

Djokovic 11/2 to wimbledon, what's happened to him

 

stopped taking PED's?

Thought the women's final & both semi-finals more interesting than either the men's final or the Nadal/Thiem semi.

That is a cheap shot.

Djokovic (like Murray) is now 30. He reached the top level earlier, winning his first Major at 20.

In contrast, Murray did not win a Major until he was 25.

Murray has appeared in 11 finals, winning 3, Djovokic has 21 finals with 12 wins.

There is a limited lifespan in the top flight in almost any sport, and certainly tennis.

Well, unless you are Roger

I love Nadal, given the way he plays it's incredible that his body is still capable of this

 

What an athlete

 

I think Murray will be back this summer too

Tennis, eh?

 

Used to be a young mans game

Having babies- perhaps they just want to get away from the scriking.

Murray out of Queens

 

 

Tory cunts

 

May must go

Top three seeds all gone.

 

Perhaps they've all won though.

I like the look of Federer this time, I think he's only about 3s though

Dan Evans. You utter dick

You're a bit late on this... but you're right. Feel very sorry for his parents.

Was away last week and just saw it on ssn

Konta just beat Ostapenko in a very good 3 setter at Eastbourne.

Just been given tkts for Court 1 on 10th July

 

So excited I have a major hard on. If Nadal plays on it that day it'll explode

Think it's Men's and Women's 4th Round that day, assuming weather doesn't mess the schedule of course

Best day for tickets as long as it doesn't rain. Give us a wave.

Any tips other than he excellent tube station advice earlier in the thread?

 

Assume an open train tkt back to Manc is sensoble given it could finish at a variable time?
