That was a great match and a good stream also. The court looks fantastic - weather has favoured the grass it seems. Very tempted to drive over - but can't go wednesday so let's hope Dan still in later in the week.

I can't believe he brought that back from the brink.

Thought I might drop in and follow the grass court season a bit so I may be around a little more often. I am currently watching Liam on the livestream. Seems like Evo had a really good win earlier.

Having not really been here for a while, it is probably unwise for me to criticise, but how can Liam have a CH of 137 when he is currently WR 136 or am I missing something wink

Hi Bob, good question. Liam is currently WR 146.

Typo. His current ranking is 146. Both instances corrected.

No, no, no. Please stay. In my defence, my typos tend to occur later in the day, when the light is going & I have yet to turn on the electric light so that I can see the keyboard of my laptop properly!

First set of tennis I have watched in a long time and I really enjoyed that - despite Liam putting me through the wringer.

1st set to Liam 7-5

Bob in Spain · Tennis legend

I think Liam needs to roll that net up and take it around the world with him. Two consecutive outrageous net cords at the start of game 8, help give him the break and he will now serve for the match.
