Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 1, 2022 Members Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) There have been a couple of entertaining matches but most of the matches have been a definite skip for me. Serena, even though she lost, her match was an on the edge of your seat type thriller. Most of these matches have been dull but most of the players themselves have pretty lackluster personalities.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 1, 2022 Members Share Posted July 1, 2022 That Venus/Jamie MXD match was a delight. Should have won it in straight sets but came through in the third set. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 1, 2022 Members Share Posted July 1, 2022 It's sad that a doubles match is more entertaining than the whole tournament. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 1, 2022 Members Share Posted July 1, 2022 It would be good if at least an appreciation for doubles could be cultivated but we know it’s unlikely to go beyond the tournament. Oh well. I guess the lighter viewing/streaming schedule allows me to get actual work done during the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 2, 2022 Members Share Posted July 2, 2022 Anisimova came through and I’m not mad at it. Hopefully there will be a nice little rivalry developing between Anisimova and Gauff. It could push each young woman to get better and it could be really good for women’s tennis and tennis overall. The sport could kind of use it right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 2, 2022 Members Share Posted July 2, 2022 You can tell Alizé Cornet was unfazed by Iga Swiatek’s game on grass. Cornet beat Serena a few times so I knew Cornet was going to relish taking on and the possibility of taking out the current #1. Others of the WTA will likely be taking note. Swiatek’s spell was broken. Cornet picked up on the vulnerabilities and exploited them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted July 2, 2022 Members Share Posted July 2, 2022 Nice to see Kyle Edmund back on the court playing mixed doubles at Wimbledon. Jack Sock playing mixed doubles with Coco? Please register in order to view this content I'm positive Sock is a racist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted July 2, 2022 Members Share Posted July 2, 2022 Not that it means *anything* in terms of his potential bigotry, but he used to date Sloane. She really leveled up with her husband. It’s a shame that players doing well won’t see any ranking benefits from playing here: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted July 3, 2022 Members Share Posted July 3, 2022 Van Rijthoven has a huge serve for someone of his height. A very entertaining player. I wonder how he’ll fare off the grass. Again, sad that he won’t get points from this, but maybe he’ll eke out a few wildcards like he did for this tournament. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 4, 2022 Members Share Posted July 4, 2022 That Wimbledon 100 ceremony, as nice as it was to see Venus was a total distraction to someone who hadn’t competed on a tennis court until this tournament for almost a year. Couldn’t they have waited until tomorrow? And only one POC on that damn court. What a legacy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
