The tennis at Wimbledon. Can't ****ing stand Serena Williams.

Neither can l, pleased Tan knocked her out

Why has she got gaffer tape on her cheek?

My wife said it's something to do with preventing sinus problems. I am only the messenger.

We would of been on centre court today, but finally the wife has had the op Tuesday and back today for reconstruction procedure.
 
Seen Murray went out in second round. I didn't watch it but he is being beaten now in very early stages of tournements, often by players who would have been happy to take a set from him in his prime. I actually don't watch him anymore as it would bother me seeing him not being what he was, Murray was class player for me and was unfortunate to be about in a era of great tennis players!

One thing for sure though is that he must absolutely love playing, to come back from his injury and play takes some guts and determination. To carry on playing when you are a fraction of what you once were takes a love for what you are doing!

Jack Draper's on soon, he looks to me to be the most promising British player about at the moment. Tough game for him today, he's only recently broken into the top 100 and De Minaur is a good player but it looks like things are starting to happen for Draper.

24 years ago today, David Beckham was sent off against Argentina and Michael Owen scored that goal. Time flies.

Ironically,the tackle from behind on Beckham would be a red card these days.

Lost the match but gave a great account of himself. He was absolutely knackered due to not being used to five sets at this level but kept going and showed a lot of grit. Real prospect.

DID YOU KNOW: Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Luis Suarez are the only players in football history to have scored in all minutes of the match, 1-90 minutes.

So you're saying they scored 90 goals in a match ...

... no, I didn't know that to be honest.

Amazing, who was it against?

Agree he does look a real prospect, unfortunately the Aussie was on top of his game.

At 21 years old l'm sure we will see a lot more of him.
A lot of young British talent coming on the scene
