Anyone manage to get tickets yesterday?
We only recently started playing tennis, and managed to login thinking it would only be one court, and the matches would be labelled. Well, I panicked. After waiting 2 hours in the queue, I had 10 minutes to complete a purchase, so bought Court 1 tickets for the 10th of July. Think it might either be mens double or womens final.
Still got another 'voucher' code via the missus, so we might some more tickets, but as I understand you can't trade them; the buyer (account holder) has to designate a guest and can go with them.

Mens final day tickets baby
nice one, enjoy it.

Osaka pulled out as well - doing media work is part of the sport, all very strange. Just say no comment. There is plenty of ways to deal with them.

Mens final day tickets baby
Friends of mine managed to get the same.
I got some for the second Friday on Centre, so Men's Semi-finals. Will wait to see what the seats are like, I lucked out in the Ballot in 2019 and was three rows from courtside on Centre on the second Tuesday. Doubt I'll get that lucky with seating this time

I managed to get Day 1 centre court tickets through my LTA membership. Really looking forward to it, feels like I haven't been to anything even remotely like a public event in years now!

Qualifying on YouTube if anyone wants a tennis fix. Some noisy bugger currently playing.

Staying in Richmond this evening, heading to Wimbledon in the morning. The rain this evening is absolutely biblical! Hope it’s a bit better tomorrow!

Konta’s out because of Covid
Yup, I'm at my parents' place in Wimbledon before going tomorrow and it's bucketing down
No great loss.
I lost all patience with her when she had the strop at the media for claiming she always 'bottles' it, which to be fair she does and is exactly what happened when I was at Wimbledon two years ago and saw her go out in the quarters.
That aside was actually a pretty good day as we saw Serena in the other quarter final which was a good match and then, after both quarters were finished, got treated to the impromptu Serena/Murray mixed doubles thing that was such a crowd-pleaser

Draper about to pull off a shock!

She's a bit rubbish anyway.
Jack Draper is playing well in this opening match against the Djok, just took the first set!

draper 1 set up. I've missed Wimbledon.
It's so watching the first day when all the courts don't have a mark on them.
Unfortunately I can't as work is mega busy.

A lot of really poor line calls already, no idea why they can't just move to automatic line calls.
Good effort by Draper so far but his first serve is a real weakness, plenty of time for it to improve though. Expect Djokovic to win in 4 now.

Djok finding his rhythm now as expected. 5-1 second set. Just a matter of time before he knocks Draper out.
