I don't know if Nadal's stomach will let him win today, unless he got that Varsity Blues shot. 

Was hoping that Jack Sock & Coco Gauff we’re going to win a Wimbledon title. 😕

(except for Kyrgios)

Fritz with 2nd break of Set wins Set #3.

So Fritz now leads 2-1

Kyrgios wins in straight sets...

On to the semi's !!!

Fritz breaks back, 4 all

heartening to see that VAMOS after the hold

well it was a fun 4 hours

unbelievable.  feel bad for fritz though.

Just amazing.  Fritz has a lot of good years to come.  But today was Rafa's. 

So Nadal won a Wimbledon quarterfinal with the service speeds of a mid-ranked female. Not too shabby.

I did like her little boobies hanging freely.

Rybakina takes the 1st set.  How uncomfortable is it going to be if the Muscovite who reclassified to Kazakhstan 4 years ago wins the Wimbledon with the Russia ban?

ah man rafa just withdrew.  kyrgios is on to sunday against novak.  

Sick to my stomach for Rafa. 19-0 in Grand Slam matches this year and can’t go for the calendar slam due to a fluke abdominal tear. He was never the favorite over Djokovic on grass but he would have had a puncher’s chance if he were healthy.

novak's looked vulnerable at times and after what we've seen from rafa in melbourne, paris, and now... it's a shame he doesn't get at least the chance.  what a warrior.  and i'm going to feel really dirty rooting for novak.

Furk.  I wish he would have withdrawn while playing Fritz… damn now it’s basically meteor time for the final.

Yeah, Fritz vs Kyrgios would have been better than a Nadal withdrawal in semi's...

I am 10 times more Argentine than Rybakina is Kazak, but it’s the same with Bublik, Putinseva

I like Rybakina okay, her serve is dominant, but the “Not technically Russian” thing is dirty  

Vika lives in the USA and has an American kid. She should have been able to renounce her Belarusian standing and played (maybe she had the option.

You should feel disgusting and a realize that you are an embarrassment to everyone in your family tree if you root for Djokovic. 

Hopefully Cam Norrie beats Djokovic so that you don’t have to be banned from Surly. 
 

In other ugly news…

Serena Williams snubbed Wimbledon centenary celebration after five courtesy car refusal

Serena Williams snubbed the Centre Court centenary celebrations after Wimbledon officials allegedly refused to let her keep her five courtesy cars for the whole tournament.

Sunday’s event united the great and good of the tennis world, with Roger Federer among those to have flown in to take part in the ceremony.

But despite having played at Wimbledon that week, the seven-time women’s champion was nowhere to be seen.

Williams was allegedly disappointed by Wimbledon's decision not to allow her to use the five courtesy cars provided by the All England for the duration of the tournament.

Williams is understood to have asked for the use of five vehicles, for herself, her husband, her sister, and mother and her coach.

While ordinary players are allocated a single car, some top players are granted an additional vehicle for their coach, although Federer is among the very few believed to have the use of five cars at the championships when he is competing.

A Wimbledon source said Serena was disappointed when Wimbledon rejected her request to extend the use of the cars past the normal limit of 24 hours after a player is knocked out.

“She wanted to use the cars for the whole two weeks because that’s what happens at the other grand slams. She was told that was not possible because they had to be used by the other players. She was not happy. Maybe that’s why she refused to take part in the centenary parade.”

Journalists who asked why Williams, given her stature in the history of Centre Court, was not present were told she had “gone home”, leading to the assumption she had returned to Florida.

However, on Sunday evening she posted photographs on social media of herself and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, at the Rolling Stones concert at Hyde Park.

Meanwhile on Tuesday evening she was at Sketch restaurant in Mayfair with her husband and the couple’s daughter, and later at the premier of Thor: Love and Thunder at Leicester Square.

Williams is well known in the tennis world for making her own rules, with some accusing her of having a tendency to play the “diva”.

Sunday’s no-show followed William’s first-round defeat in the ladies singles on the first Tuesday to Harmon Tan.

Serena is well known for missing the mandatory post-match interviews with the BBC and American broadcaster ESPN while in the group Press interviews she often “moderates” who is able to ask the questions herself rather than allowing a Wimbledon official to take charge.

She also regularly demands the use of particular practice courts at the grand slam venues rather than accepting the normal random selection but will then turn up at the arranged time.

Williams’s agent has been approached for comment.

A Wimbledon spokesman said: “We have fulfilled every transport request we received.”

…the comments are pretty interesting as well…

Rybakina was offered financial support for her training  and probably a living stipend if she would switch and play for Kazakhstan. 

Several male and female players switched from Russia 🇷🇺 to Kazakhstan 🇰🇿, usually because they weren’t top priorities for the Russian Tennis Federation, but still showed enough promise to attract Kazak funding for development. 

Not dissimilar to French youth soccer players playing for other national teams and even the USA is starting to develop soccer players (men’s players too, not just women’s players) who play for other national teams. 

Lulz at Fowler talking about the crowd booing both guys at the final

Fowler is a total bitch about Kyrgios. 

People fucking love to watch Kyrgios. He will easily be the crowd favorite. Novak will have to Serbian Stasi in the crowd, but most of the rest will be pulling for Kyrgios. 

Who is the chick in the crowd they keep showing during the women's final?

I'm watching with the sound down, as usual.

Kaz opens the 2nd set with a break.  Showing some signs of life.

Consolidates for 2-0

Massive momentum swing in the second set.  Looks like it will go to a third now.
