Wimbledon

[Mick Mac]

Its a complete joke imo. sorry.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Why? Even if you don't like the game you have to respect the sheer determination and physical effort.

[karter]

yep, it's silly now

[GSJ57]

yes i do respect that pgc. but there has to be a better answer to establishing the best player. tie breaker at some point maybe after 10-10.

[GSJ57]

Fair point MM, but this is unprecedented.

[wjfox]

They will have to stop the game on health grounds at some point. Duty of care to the players and all that.

[Mick Mac]

Are these 2 guys buddies by any chance?

[SeanMacGabhann]

But the rules have worked until today. And they will work again. This is unprecedented. The rules might change on the back of it but what we are witnessing will never happen again either way

[Moos]

I just feel so so sorry for whomever loses after this titanic effort.

The rules did not envisage a time when big serves would rule the game. Unfortunatley that is where we are on grass courts, 5th sets will on average be longer than 20 years ago.

I can't believe an English commentator just said they are off for a "bathroom break" - yuk!

[GSJ57]

They are about to run out light again

[SeanMacGabhann]

Mick... You just. Will. Not. See. Anything. Like. This. Again

It's not just big serves on grass

disgusting. really disgusting.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Not sure what the etiquette is, but I hope they tip the ball boys and girls a huge whack!

[RosieH]

How in hell is the winner going to play his next match?

Guess what Sean - I won't even see it this time - I gave it 2 mins and decided to cut the grass instead.

btw - you have too many periods in that sentence.

[wjfox]

Game stopped due to lack of light. lol.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

that is amazing - it would have been stopped hours' ago for light if it were cricket.

[Mick Mac]

LOL = LACK OF LIGHT ?

Can't wait to pick this game up again tomorrow.

The balls are harder in cricket PGC. Don't you know that?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Their serves are faster than the fastest West Indian bowler!

[Mick Mac]

This is true.

Wot's your point? :)
