I've been allocated a couple of tickets on number 1 court for the second Thursday. Returns methinks. Now I enjoy watching most tennis, but it's actually fairly hard to get that time off work. Is it worth calling in a few favours to watch Juniors and Seniors matches, or should I let this go by. I'd appreci...

I think they're too similar to not be related. What do you think?

How much influence does the BBC have on the order of play each day? All broadcasters can put their requests for when they would like a match to be played via official systems at the club and those are then passed on to the referee's office. Clearly as host broadcaster, the BBC would like to feel we have a go...

Hello all, new member to the site although I follow the forums, mostly to see how the brits do in challengers and futures etc, especially the hardy souls that attempt to carve a path over in Spain, Phillips, Ward etc (I see them as kindred spirits as you can guess from my username). I'm a keen tennis pla...

What do you think about Tim's chances against Moya? Moya can be dangerous on grass. Tim's form is a little unpredictable but I think he is still a great grass court player. My tip Tim in 4.

The LTA seem to think so: The first round draw for the Mens Singles at Wimbledon has presented Sheffields Jonny Marray with a big hurdle in the diminuitive shape of Sebastien Grosjean. The 59" Frenchman from Marseille has an impressive pedigree at Wimbledon-twice before (2003, 2004) reachin...

13th June 2007: Andy Roddick v Alex Bogdanovic. Boggo a set up and 5-5 in 2nd set tiebreaker. Roddick shot called out, he challenges. Hawkeye proves it is in. Roddick avoids match point, gains set point and wins the set. After the match, Roddick sings the praises of Hawkeye. 17th June 2007: Andy Roddic...

Who is going to be heading to the All England Club in a couple of weeks to watch the odd hitabout? What day will you be going? Have you got show-court tickets or are you slumming it with the proles and queueing for a ground pass? I'm pretty certain that I'm going to go in on the Monday. I'm going to Glatonbury...

Hey guys, I'm thinking of going to see some tennis this weekend but not sure what to go for. Obviously will have to be either Surbiton finals or Queens qualies. A few questions I have though: Which day is the Surbiton final? If it's on the Saturday then which day do Queen's qualies start? Is that Sunday so...

this rain is going to cause havoc. and will slow everything down as well. Bad for Tigger

So its Henman vs Gulbis. The veteran against the Grand Slam debutant. Ernests is at a career high of 84 in the world rankings. He has emerged pretty fast and is definitely a prospect though I don't think hee'll come anywhere neat the likes of Nole/Andy/Monfils etc.... Reached ATP St Petersburg semis o...

Henman faces Gulbis Ernests from Lat in the first round. In the second round he can play against Soderling or Montanes. The next round probably against Nadal.

So Tim needs again one withdrawal to get in main draw. He doesn't love damp clay there though.

Hi everyone. I know that I am new here, but I have a proposal for everyone here: could ourselves, as British tennis fans, be a bit more proactive and have some fun as well? Would others be interested in banding together and producing a radio broadcast of, say, the semifinals/finals of the summer challe...
