An Ashes final would be something else.

A Bledisloe Cup final you mean??

For a pro player Norrie has an awful weak backhand

I’d say Djokovic will cruise to victory from here.

I’d love to be able to cheer for this Norrie chap but the lads on the BBC would instantly turn you off. “But he’s British and he’s ours”

Let’s go Novak

They must have brought a split season into the tennis season. No buzz around the semi-finals compared to 10 years ago😅

Seems it’s common enough to pick up tickets on the day.

These are two women of modest talents here in the final.

It’s the first Championship without the Great Man since 1998. Interminable baseline sloggers like Djokovic and Nadal have very limited appeal outside of their fanboy and fangirl clubs.

Good riddance.

Thankfully now we dont have to listen to the commentators going on and on about Serena

Meet Olympia…
