The Old Tennis Thread

[Marc]

Petra just about back in it

[Marc]

Serena/Yaroslava staying on serve in the third. 3-2 to Yaroslava

[Novo]

not a good start to the day for the favourites but no doubt all 3 of them will turn it around...

[Locke.]

5-2

[Marc]

C'mon Sabine, do her in

[Marc]

Imagine if Serena, Petra, Schiavone and Azarenka all went out today :pipe:

[Jayson]

C'mon Sabine, do her in

I'd like to see that

[Jayson]

Schiavone is going to win the whole thing Marc

[Lee.]

Grrr! I want to watch but the kids are playing the Wii! :(

[Novo]

Imagine if Serena, Petra, Schiavone and Azarenka all went out today :pipe:

Or just the first 3.. stroll in the park for a certain someone i think :pipe:

[Locke.]

****

[Jayson]

Schiavone vs. Kvitova is like the battle of the uglies

[Marc]

Imagine if Serena, Petra, Schiavone and Azarenka all went out today :pipe:

Why did I say Schivona AND Petra? :laugh: one of them must win

[Marc]

****

fgs :bored:

[Novo]

Lisicki you ****ing idiot

[Novo]

Schiavone on the other hand.. well done :pipe:

[Jayson]

Has she ****ed it all up? :laugh:

[Jayson]

Set point

[Locke.]

Yes!!!!!!

[Locke.]

Have that Sharapova you arrogant ****

[Novo]

Lisicki you great great clever woman

[Jayson]

Lisicki :amazed:

Schiavone :mad:

[Locke.]

The worst umpire of all time

[Jayson]

I can see Schiavone's nipples :pipe:

[Jayson]

Shame she's a waste of space

[Marc]

:laugh:

Slippy court on No.3

[Jayson]

Schiavone getting upset because there's the tiniest bit of mist

[Marc]

Shevdova is actually pretty hot.

[Marc]

Aw she's all smiles with the crowd doing a mexican wave. Serena serving for it now :mad:

[Jayson]

Thought you'd put Schiavone for a second there... was beginning to think you'd gone peculiar.

[Locke.]

Sabine out having a nice time in the rain trying to find a signal on her phone while Sharapova is smashing up her own dressing room in frustration

[Marc]

Is she really? :laugh:

[Lee.]

Stopped for rain?

[Jayson]

The umpire on Court no. 3 looks like she's on acid

[Marc]

Stopped for rain?

Yeah

Serena just won as well :mad:

[Locke.]

Sabine is really out looking for a signal on her phone yes

[Novo]

**** off Serena

[Marc]

I echo those sentiments Novo

[Jayson]

I like Serena :pipe:

[Marc]

I bet you like her big ass

[Jayson]

I would like to bury my face in it

[Marc]

Petra took the second set, delightful.

[Locke.]

I like Venus more, shame she isn't as good anymore

[Marc]

I would like to bury my face in it

I hope it's clean

[Jayson]

Venus will forever be in her sister's shadow.



























Because Serena is fatter than her.

[Jayson]

I hope it's clean

The dirtier the better.

This thread has gone way off track.

[Iceman]

Mikhail winning again :D

[Locke.]

Ball boys and girls are back out again looks like it'll be starting up again soon

[Jayson]

When did Kvitova win the first set :suspect:

[Marc]

Venus will forever be in her sister's shadow.



























Because Serena is fatter than her.

She's not fat at all, I've seen them both playing in real life and Serena is pretty thin. She has a big bum and breasts but she's not like chunky or chubby

[Marc]

When did Kvitova win the first set :suspect:

She won the second like 10 minutes ago :pipe:

[Jayson]

She's not fat at all, I've seen them both playing in real life and Serena is pretty thin. She has a big bum and breasts but she's not like chunky or chubby

Didn't say she was fat, just fatter than that skinny bitch Venus :hmph:

[Jayson]

She won the second like 10 minutes ago :pipe:

Bloody BBC One, why was I not instructed by BBC Two to switch channels.

I'm complaining to Ofcom.

[Jayson]

+ I meant her first set not the first set.

[Novo]

Gip Giorgi playing now

[Marc]

Bloody BBC One, why was I not instructed by BBC Two to switch channels.

I'm complaining to Ofcom.

I'll sign a petition with you

[Locke.]

What the ****, they are just zoomed in right on some randomers eye

[Marc]

http://i.wp.pl/a/f/jpeg/29441/camila_giorgi_500.jpeg

Gip Giorgi playing now

Maaaannn

[Jayson]

She looks lovely

[Iceman]

Youzhny is 2-1 up now :pipe:

[Locke.]

They are back out

[Marc]

I'm going to turn off Federer, I want to watch Petra

[Jayson]

Looks like Schiavone's gone :(

[Novo]

Kvitova v Serena in the Quarters? should be interesting

[Novo]

Lisicki copying Vika's style from last year :idc:

[Jayson]

Think I might put Giorgi on just so that I can stare at her.

[Locke.]

Lisicki has had this style since 2006

[Novo]

She never use to wear pants

[Locke.]

She has taken them off

[Marc]

GSM Petra :pipe:

[Jayson]

Out goes Schiavone

[Jayson]

Gonna have to rely on Tsonga going into beast mode if I want to win the sweepstakes now

[Marc]

Hurry up and win Sabine

[Novo]

Lisicki breaks her :amazed:

[Novo]

That was the return of the tournament so far

[Novo]

Lisicki means business.. looks like Vika will need to do her research before she meets her in the final

[Marc]

Lisicki breaks her :amazed:

Face? :amazed:

[Marc]

what a terrible serve :joker:

[Novo]

Don't bottle it http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/smilies/amazed.gif http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/smilies/amazed.gif

[Novo]

that will do http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/smilies/amazed.gif

[Novo]

3-0 http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/smilies/amazed.gif

[Jayson]

Everyone must spam Legend killer's wall when Lisicki wins this

[Novo]

Could it be? http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/smilies/amazed.gif

[Locke.]

3-0 up, this is going better than I thought

[Iceman]

Istomin coming back :bored:

[Locke.]

This woman commentator needs to shut up

[Marc]

C'mon Sabineeeee

[Marc]

4-1 :worship:

[Novo]

Just think if Lisicki played like this against Sharapova last year she would have made the final

[Marc]

Definitely.

Sharapova isn't as good as her ranking makes out and it bugs me.

[Iceman]

Istomins a ****.

[Novo]

Massive game coming up now.. Lisicki has to hold or Sharapova will bring herself back into this

[Novo]

Lisicki laughing at the call from Sharapova

[Novo]

Say goodbye to your #1 spot it's coming back to it's rightful owner :pipe:

[Marc]

C'mon girl, you can do this.

http://i.imgur.com/IWQbQ.png

[Jayson]

Don't know why she's even bothering, she can't pull it back now.

[Jayson]

Match point :amazed:

[Novo]

[Marc]

[Locke.]

What a great reaction

[Jayson]

umad Legend killer

[Novo]

Congrats Novo

Congratulate me after Vika gets through the Semi final against Serena or Kvitova :pipe:

[Marc]

:laugh: GOAT my ass

[Marc]

Giorgi hanging in

[King Gizzard]

She's so cute, regardless of the teeth :lovedup:

[King Gizzard]

She's so cute, regardless of the teeth :lovedup:

http://instagram.com/p/MJs6BtOcOS/

[Jayson]

Agreed Nathan

[Locke.]

Looks like it will be an all German tie for her in the quarters then

[Marc]

She's so cute, regardless of the teeth :lovedup:

http://instagram.com/p/MJs6BtOcOS/

She is hot

[Novo]

Federer needs to hurry up and win this match.. the Main Event is due to begin soon

[IheartBB]

Clijsters is putting in an absolute sh*t fest against Kerber. I hope to God her last Wimbledon does not end on court 3.

[Marc]

:( C'mon Kim

I would love her to go as far as possible in this tournament. Possibly win

[Iceman]

5th set for Youzhny :bored:

[Marc]

Wow only 33 minutes

[Marc]

Kirilenko leads Peng 1 set up and 5-5 in the second. One of these women will reach their first Wimbledon QF

[Marc]

It'll be Peng's first GS QF actually, Maria's second

[Marc]

Wow Kerber has a point to make it 0-4 in the second set.

[Jayson]

Murray 3-1 over Cilic is my prediction :pipe:

[Marc]

C'mon Muzzaaa

[Marc]

Kerber just two games away from her second consecutive GS QF, and knocking out Clijsters in her last Wimbledon :(

[Jayson]

Clijsters was never gonna do too well, too good to be true.

[Marc]

Hmm I was optimistic for the semi's - oh well.

Murray is in for a long one

[Marc]

Kerber with Match Point

[King Gizzard]

Sabine Lisicki ‏@sabinelisicki

Yesssssss!!!!

[Marc]

woo! 5-1 kerber, kim gets on the board

[Marc]

Sabine Lisicki ‏@sabinelisicki

Yesssssss!!!!

Good with words, that one

[Marc]

Day at the bakery for Kerber

GMS Kerber

Bye bye Clijsters :(

[Marc]

Tsonga/Fish is on now, Fed through

Kirilenko/Peng into a decider

[IheartBB]

Two blockbuster women's quarter finals is too much to ask for these days, it seems. Serena/Kvitova is the only one worthy of Centre. Clijsters/Sharapova would have been a more fitting ending for Kim :(

[Jayson]

I think it's only fair that we all support Lisicki from this point forwards.

[Locke.]

Don't be stupid

[IheartBB]

Truth.

[Marc]

:laugh:

[Novo]

Here we go!

[Novo]

Come on Vika

[Locke.]

Azarenka robbing Sabine's style

[Marc]

C'mon Ana! -crosses fingers- :laugh:

[Marc]

Wet court, they're debating it

[Novo]

Vika could slip and break her foot here

[Locke.]

The crowd are baying for Vika's blood

[Marc]

Vika told to shut up and get on with it

[Marc]

Ana trying to draw Vika in and break her leg; very wise

[Novo]

This is sick

[Marc]

Ana needs to sort out her forehand, movement and ball toss :joker:

[Novo]

Hang on a minute.. Vika is back in this :pipe:

[Locke.]

Vika does not seem to have many fans, they are all shouting for Ivanovic

[Novo]

****ing bastards are giving bad calls against Vika

[Marc]

Lol Ana, what a dreadful start

This will be over quickly

[Marc]

Lol Ana, what a dreadful start

This will be over quickly

[Novo]

Just like that she breaks straight away

[Marc]

Murray has taken the first set 7-5

[Marc]

I'll watch this from now on, Ivanovic riles me

[Novo]

Vika makes it look so easy

[Marc]

Gasquet and Tsonga both a set down in their matches

[Iceman]

Youzhny goes through :pipe:

[Novo]

Thank god for the roof

[Novo]

Playing again at 5.15

[Novo]

Vika dancing :joker:

[Novo]

Hope someone makes a gif of that

[Marc]

oh it's not over yet? :laugh:

[Marc]

silly rain

[arista]

and they are off.


Boring low level couple

[Novo]

and they are off.


Boring low level couple

Shows how much you know, Vika is the highest seed left.. and there is the first set 6-1 :worship:

[Novo]

You can tell she hasn't even stepped up a gear at all in this match and she is still destroying her

[Marc]

Ana you're terrible.

I know I'm exaggerating, but when I watch her I can't fathom how she managed to get this far

[Novo]

what a shot that was

[Novo]

****ing hell :joker:

[Novo]

Love how she just stared up looking bemused then a bunch of feathers came falling on her

[Locke.]

The poor bird

[Marc]

I reiterate what I just tweeted..

I wish I could un-support Ivanovic.

Heartbroken to just see how she can't cope with any decent competition.

[Marc]

Did a pigeon die?

[Novo]

Think Serena just **** herself after watching that

[Marc]

:bawling:

[Novo]

"If it's covered, if it's uncovered. If it rains, if it doesn't rain, it is beautiful."

[IheartBB]

Think Serena just **** herself after watching that

:joker:

But seriously, Azarenka did what she had to do to beat a player in terrible form. Nothing more, nothing less.

[Novo]

Serena Williams 5/2
Victoria Azarenka 7/2
Kvitova 7/2
Kerber 6/1
Radwanska 7/1
Lisicki 8/1
Paszek 18/1
Kirilenko 40/1



It's going to come down to whoever wins the Semi Final between Serena Williams/Kvitova and Azarenka.. the other side of the draw is pretty poor

[Novo]

11/10 on anyone but Serena or Kvitova to win the whole thing.. good odds considering there is a good chance neither of them will be in the final

[Locke.]

Lisicki in from 40/1 to 8/1.

Troicki and Ivanovic might aswell have not bothered turning up today

[IheartBB]

Wimbledon organisers need bloody shooting. They have three hours of play left and a court with a closed roof yet they still suspend play. Put one of the men's matches that has already started on there (preferably Murray) or at least a doubles match. Williams/Williams v Kirilenko/Petrova had one set left to play - that would have worked just fine but nooooo :bored:

[Marc]

Tennis on :amazed:

Only on Centre though.

Del Pot-Ferrer on at the moment, followed by two women's quarters. Seems very silly considering 5 men's fourth round matches are yet to be finished and ALL the women's fourth rounds have been finished

[Marc]

I agree Murray's or Tsonga's match could have been finished. Or Gasquet's because he's the only one in the top half to not be through to the QFs

[Locke.]

Lisicki having a late start for the first time this tournament

[Marc]

She shouldn't be on, it's silly

[Jayson]

FFS RAlN, WHY U FALL

[Marc]

It's stopped raining :amazed:

[Jayson]

:amazed::amazed::amazed::amazed:

[Jayson]

Tsonga vs. Fish for moi

[Locke.]

Right, lets hope for more rain

[Jayson]

FFS Tsonga :(

[Jayson]

1-1 Tsonga vs. Fish

[Marc]

Locke go away

[Marc]

Muzza two games away.

Must be frustrating going off and coming back on

[Locke.]

I don't need it to rain now I can watch it.

Murray not far away from going through, who does he face next?

[Novo]

Hurry up Murray

[Marc]

Woop

[Marc]

Murray listens to Ed Sheran?
Oh god

[Locke.]

Jesus christ, liven up a bit Murray

[Novo]

Radwanska should win here and go past the Quarter finals for once

[Locke.]

No, Kirilenko must win, an easier game for Lisicki if she manages to beat Kerber

[Marc]

C'mon Aga

Top form this year, would deserve it

[Marc]

C'mon Aga

Top form this year, would deserve it

[Locke.]

3/1 for Radwanska to win 2-1

[Novo]

Hope Radwanska makes the final since Vika has beat her the last 10 times they have played each other

[Marc]

Wow. I just unmuted my tv

[Marc]

That noise is not necessary at all

[Novo]

What a great noise

[Marc]

Not at all, she should be banned like Vika and Sharapova

[Novo]

Lisicki and Kerber on center court.. Lisicki is going to slip on one of the Pigeon feathers and break her leg

[Locke.]

What a terrible story

[Marc]

I still haven't seen this pigeon thing :joker:

[Novo]

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6jnqbX7D91qcz8udo1_r1_500.jpg

[Novo]

What a start by Kvitova

[Novo]

spoke to soon

[Marc]

That pigeon was actually carrying a deadly disease, it was a ploy by Radwanska to weaken her.

[Novo]

http://www.oddschecker.com/tennis/wimbledon/womens-wimbledon/winner

Kvitova 14/1 now

[Novo]

This needs to go to a third set and then hopefully it will be a long one so the winner will be knackered

[Locke.]

Serena serving for the match.

Almost time for Lisicki

[Novo]

**** sake why can't Serena be on the other side of the draw

[Locke.]

Sabine about to knock out her doubles partner

[Novo]

It's looking bad already

[Marc]

Oh dear

[Locke.]

She has arrived

[Novo]

She has departed again

[Marc]

Kerber doing everything just a little better than Lisicki

[Locke.]

Being nice to her mate and giving her a one set headstart I see

[Marc]

Ahh a break back, nice

[Locke.]

What a great point

Back in it now

[Novo]

Kerber is bossing Little Lisicki around the court

[Marc]

Just break her again and it'll be smooth sailing :pipe:

[Novo]

Nearly :pipe:

[Locke.]

Oh no

[Locke.]

What have the bastards done to her... forcing her to play one day after a hard worked game the day before

[Novo]

I think those poisoned pigeon feathers intended for Vika from Radwanska have affected Lisicki instead

[Marc]

Oh no

[Marc]

I don't want doubles fgs red button

[Locke.]

Right she is back and ready to go

[Marc]

Just watching Tsonga/Fish finish
