[Madíson]

Oh - how embarrassing - the sound isn’t working…

 

[Madíson]

The audio is working on Amazon. What a car crash.

 

[Apoca]

The issue here isn't really twitter as such though, the issues really lie in pockets of Twitter e.g. Rena's Army or the Big 3 Feuds. That can become a really rather unpleasant situation really quickly. Unfortunately, @cwej seemed to poke that bees nest (I'm not even sure what was said really but I presume it was blown out of proportion and miscontrued).

 

[Halli]

This is quite odd seeing Prime Video logo in the corner of the C4 screen

Cwej probably has BlackTwitter after him now.

With only his clipboard for defence

Greg Rusedski has aged better than expected. Unless its the TV makeup

That’s rather a lot of Botox!

 

[BoysForSeles]

Rusedski implying he’s been in more than one grand slam final when answering the question about speaking to your opponent.

 

[Madíson]

How many times is Tim Henman going to mention Prime?

 

[Halli]

mad to think both of these huns were not alive when 9/11 happened.

God that first game. these players

 

[Halli]

Was nice to see Mary Joe Fernandez in the interviews too - she was one of my faves back in the day that 'never quite made it' Totally forgot about her

 

[Madíson]

Three break points

 

[Halli]

Three break points

dont speak too soon

 

[Ellie]

This game is going on forever

 

[Iguana]

They can't break it

 

[Iguana]

Oh she did

 

[Madíson]

Great stuff.

 

[Beverley]

They’re playing so fast, so dynamic it’s giving me WHIPLASH

 

[jyxz]

I know it’s early, but Raducanu seems to be the most settled and in control so far.

Well she was an elite player. Facing Graf and Seles in your three singles slam final appearances was an almighty task.

I know she was. I kind of put her with Mary Pierce. Amazing player, just not top tier like the stars of the time?

I hated Mary Pierce for no particular reason.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Feel like Raducanu needs to keep as far ahead as possible. Fernandez will be so hard to keep hitting through at this tournament in a long match.

 

[Halli]

This is a SET in 3 games.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Ms Pierce had such an on court presence when she played.

 

[Beverley]

 

[Madíson]

I appreciate the way neither of them make horrible noises every time they hit the ball.

 

[Halli]

Why is Tim Henman sounding like MURRAY WALKER?

 

[Halli]

I appreciate the way neither of them make horrible noises every time they hit the ball.

Such a sly dig to SELES

 

[Ellie]

Such a sly dig to SELES

Seles has long since been surpassed in the grunting stakes.

 

[BoysForSeles]

I want Emma to win but feel Leylah’s route deserves it more so won’t complain about either winner.

Of course whoever wins this match I would be happy with

But EMMA being brought up in BROMLEY with immigrant parents from Romania and China? How amazing.

To be fair I remember nearly combusting when SAMANTHA SMITH got to R4 at Wimbeldon in my school days, so this is just unparalleled

 

[Beverley]

Are we getting a few too many errors from Emma?

 

[Madíson]

Is Bromley not nice? I’ve always assumed it is.

 

[Halli]

Is Bromley not nice? I’ve always assumed it is.

Well there's very nice parts and not so nice parts. Its the ROMFORD (Essex) of Kent.

 

[Ellie]

Now there’s a blast from the past. Had totally forgotten about her.

 

[Halli]

Now there’s a blast from the past. Had totally forgotten about her.

I think I bunked off school that day it was quite the news

 

[jyxz]

Who did Sam Smith partner with? Was it Jeremy… someone?

 

[Madíson]

Odd cameo for Schopenhauer.

 

[jyxz]

Oh. Jeremy Bates.

And Jo Durie.
