    Murray versus baby Fed. Forty minutes in, first set, two games all.

    Someone put the hospital on standby.

    "Waaaaaah I make millions from playing a summer sport and it's too hot waaaaaah"

    Toughen up princess. What next, skiers complaining it's a bit chilly? Swimmers upset about the wet? Darts players upset at the drunkenness?

    Hubert Hurkacz of Poland plays Frenchman Ugo Humbert.

    It all sounds a bit Englebert Humperdinck to me. This could be in the made up names thread.

    Strongly suspect that Murray will retire this season. Possibly after Wimbledon, but could see him wanting to bow out after the U.S. Open, as a former champion.

    Nadal loses in the first round of the French to Zverev. No racquet folding. The end of an era.

    Have they ever thought of getting tennisers to wear different colours, so you easily tell which is which when you’re not paying much attention?

    It’s funny. He’s got a massive chip on his shoulder because he was never liked in the way Fed and Nadal are… and the way he ‘deals with it’ just proves that he really is as unlikable as people have always felt him to be.

    It’s a shame he’s so good at tennis.

    Mixed doubles has got to be one of the weirdest elite level competitive sports going. A bit like attempting a three legged race tied to a blow up doll filled with sand.
