Wimbledon

Bit late but anyone watching the finals? Really good stuff

Hopefully the first of 2 disappointments for the Italians on English soil today.

Djokovic is just a machine, I'd never be more certain of a player who's 0-40 down on serve fighting back to hold. Berrettini looks great though, he'll definitely be back at the sharp end of Wimbledon. Felix Auger-Aliassime, the young Canadian, looks like he has a bright future as well. He got knocked out by Berrettini but beat the number 4 seed Zverev in the preceding round.

Not a huge tennis fan, but watch a bit of Wimbledon. Completely passed me by this year.

 

[Moriath]

Avoided it where possible

Berrettini was very impressive, especially in the first set where he could have been crushed

Satellite dish, wife watches TV. If she wasn't around, I probably wouldn't even own a TV

The stuff on iplayer generally has been on bbc1 or 2. If those channels didnt exist neither would the iplayer

It's almost like it's an on-demand service for the stuff the BBC broadcasts through its TV channels.

Actually, most of the interesting stuff is on BBC3...but I am not one TV schedules.

I enjoyed the Wimbledon highlight reel of non Tennis highlights. Ball boys catching the ball, champagne bottles popping, etc.

Novak is probably the best player ever. Thought that a while ago. He'd already be ahead if he hadn't got disqualified for a bit and covid hadn't happened and that's in an era when there were 2 other greats.

Not saying there won't be a better player ever. Things move on. But for now, best there's been.
