Is this Halep lady having an orgasm every time she hits the ball ?

One of the best Wimbledon matches ever......and the wave starts :facepalm:

That was unreal. I've long felt that outside of Selhurst, the crowds at Wimbledon are collectively the most embarrassing bunch of BUFFOONS at any sporting venue. There's always one goon who has to get one more shout in after the rest of the "COME ON XXXX"'s have finally died down. The shrieks and yelps emanating from the Prosecco-addled, sunburnt, middle-aged Mumsnet brigade cheering on whatever piece of beefcake they've latched themselves onto is utterly cringeworthy.

And the outright HYSTERIA that erupts if a pigeon lands on the court makes me idly wish for a tactical drone strike on the whole cuffing thing.

Will BBC Radio Sussex drop the " Eastbourne's " Johanna Konta epithet if she loses today ?

Absolutely 100% this. Glad I am away and missing the whole ****ing thing. Only current exposure is the Facebook feeds from people who usually express no interest in sport whatsoever but for two weeks somehow find watching tennis 'super stressful' and every performance 'amazing'. So glad I am not in the office and having to put up with the inevitable hours of discussion about it, and irritating minute-by-minute updates on Murray being 'in a tense tie break'......

**** OFF!

Women? Really don't care.

Remember, this is an opinion. I don't care that much about the women either. Despite the prowess of Serena Williams, her sister, and other good women players, they just don't entertain me very well. It's much like watching U-17 compared to the senior team.

Good bounce of my earlier comment. I am now glued to the Konta game. It seems when it is an English (sort of) woman then I do care!

It's a different sport really.

A bit like basketball and wheelchair basket ball...
