faraway saint Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Anyhow, Murray comes through a decent first round match against the world number 74.

faraway saint Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Anyhow, Murray comes through a tough first round match against the world number 74. Wins the third set 6-4, three sets to one, good days work. Good game for him, need to be on his game as Isner is next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 So the big hitting John Isner up next, on Wednesday. Murray has a 8-0 record, very impressive, but Isner is the current world number 24. IF Murray plays well his ability to return could see him win, fingers crossed. I reckon I've seen between 80-90% of Murrays matches over the last umpteen years, if he makes it to week two this year he'll be doing well.

The women’s matches often have longer rallies and are sometimes better to watch were it not for Andy. It doesn’t require an expert to deduce that if you serve better and return better then your chances improve and that’s exactly what happened with Andy Murray. I go to a lot of football games and am constantly amazed at the number of highly qualified football managers there are in the stands, in the car, bus or pub and online who could obviously all do a better job than “whoever the current manager is”.

That's Djokovic, Federer, Nadal and Murray. I don't follow tennis that much these days to really, with any confidence, say who could upset that pattern this year but Berrettini could well be that player. I’ll bet you £10000 that Berrettini won’t win Wimbledon singles this year . 💰 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Nadal currently in a battle. he was 2-0 up in sets when I got home but his opponent, Cerundolo (never heard of him) has really started hitting the ball hard and managed to win the third set 6-3. 4th set about to commence.

faraway saint Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Next up, Serena, quite simply a legend. Aye, she's had a few "bad displays of temper" but lots of top class sportsmen/women do. Overall, she's had it all. I expect her to still hit the ball but movement has to be a possible issue. If she's not moving as well she'll not be in the ideal position to allow her to hit the ball as she can. Anyhow, I'll just sit back and relax, it's been a pleasure.

faraway saint Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Great 1st set, Tan (the supposed supporting act) is a throwback player, all finesse, not a "power" player, has been very entertaining. Williams has been up and down, maybe a wee bit rusty but Tan has stayed true to her own game and came back to take the set 7-5. Just closing the roof, not sure Tan wanted a slightly longer break, time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
