Wimbledon 2023

[oryx]

Injured breaking his racket.

Dented the net post

He should get an injection for that wrist. Stick some covid vaccine in while you're at it.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

I don't care too much, but Andrew Castle is totally wrong. It's not ok to do that.

 

[May Kasahara]

Come on Alcaraz!

 

[May Kasahara]

Absolutely vicious point from Alcaraz there

 

[belboid]

A game away! C’mon Alcky

 

[May Kasahara]

Win or lose, this kid has got balls of steel That lob was brutal.

 

[oryx]

A new champion! Well done Alcaraz.

 

[Numbers]

The baton has been handed over.

 

[magneze]

Great stuff

 

[belboid]

Go baby!

 

[Sasaferrato]

I've a feeling we are going to hear more of that young man.

What a cracking match.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Didn't miss a serve in that final game,

 

[Numbers]

Brilliant game of tennis.

 

[Numbers]

20 ffs.

 

[May Kasahara]

20 years old. Unbelievable. The mental grit and balance at that age.

We watched the Boris documentary y/day, he was 17 when he won Wimbledon

 

[shifting gears]

HERO

Mad, isn't it. When I think back to what I was like at 17 Can't even imagine it now at 47 tbh.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Fantastic final, deserved winner. Changing of the guard?

 

[T & P]

I’m still trying to comprehend the immensity of what Alcaraz has just achieved here…

 

[Steel Icarus]

Blimey, don't see Djokovic in tears very often

 

[Steel Icarus]

Alacaraz wasn't born the last time someone who wasn't Federer, Nadal, Djokovic or Murray won the men's singles

 

[belboid]

I don't care too much, but Andrew Castle is totally wrong. It's not ok to do that.

Stolen from a friend:

Having Andrew Castle commentate on the Alcaraz drop shot is like having Botticelli's Venus described to you by Nigel Farage.

 

[T & P]

Amazing stat: this is the first time in 21 years that someone outside the ’big four’ has won Wimbledon.

 

[Kevbad the Bad]

Blimey, don't see Djokovic in tears very often

If he'd have taken the vaccine he'd probably have won.

 

[Lord Camomile]

If he'd have taken the vaccine he'd probably have won.

Well, at the very least, he would have been able to compete in the Aus Open he missed, and would thus most likely have already got to 24 Slams.

 

[smmudge]

Yesssssss come on Alcaraz! (Sorry went out for dinner and just caught up)

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Well, at the very least, he would have been able to compete in the Aus Open he missed, and would thus most likely have already got to 24 Slams.

And two US Opens.

In terms of spectacle, I think men's singles is better than women's singles, but women's doubles pisses all over men's doubles. Great rallies and shotmaking rather than power and short points. Shame nearly everyone went home after the men's final.

Wheelchair doubles is also fantastic to watch.

 

[Red Cat]

I had to watch the whole match on catch up which misses something but was still amazing.
