Default Wimbledon

Hi
Has anyone been watching? I've only been able to catch a few matches because of busy.

Was really sad to see Emma become unwell last night. Really hope she is getting the help she needs.

Hoping to catch some of the semi final matches and of course the finals at the weekend.

Any injured players get taken to the Wombles triage centre and if they can't be treated I'm afraid they get put down, but they do get recycled, Tim Henman had his balls recycled

it seems Emma has been getting a bit of grief from some people for not continuing with the match, she might have had a panic attack , it seems mental health is still not understood by some people

I really enjoyed the final, at first it looked like it could be embarrassingly one-sided, so I am glad it became a true contest, but I like Ash's attitude so I got the result I wanted with lots of good play too. Crowd not the most sporting but I guess they just wanted a longer match.

Awww the little boy doing the coin toss was having the best day. So sweet!

I'm a huge Djokovic fan! So really hoping he wins, so he can get his 20th Grand Slam and be in line with the other greats.

Matteo is awesome. Such a powerful player. A real threat! (He's charismatic and beautiful too.)

Gonna be a great final!

Berrettini's mum filming the trophy ceremony & speeches on her phone instead of just watching her son, ffs.
Do you reckon she realises the tournament is broadcast all round the world and the entire thing will be on YouTube forever. I'm sure if she asked nicely the BBC would lend her a VHS copy.

Aw I was so hoping Berrettini would win yesterday! It was such a good match though! I've never been a big fan of Djokovic but he is an actual machine, unstoppable.. He's definitely going to overtake Roger and Rafa. Feels so weird without any football or tennis today!
