It all started so relaxed with British No. 1 and home-crowd hero Andy Murray looking relaxed and posing for photographs with waiting fans at the quay where the players arrive by boat. There were rousing cheers, there was an early break – oh it was all going so well.
Well with a day one result (and indeed a shirt) that was as grey as the conditions on a gloomy Sunday, the crowds will return to the giant umbrella once more to see World No. 1 and new daddy Novak Djokovic against the wonderfully unassuming Marin Cilic.
It’s raining, it’s pouring – isn’t that how the nursery rhyme goes. Oh we are sure there is some historical significance to the lines, but really what it all comes down to is this. On Sunday we can all race into the cavernous dome that is the O2 which is, let’s face it, the shape of a giant umbrella – handy.
On a sunny day in Eastbourne the defending WTA champion joined the seed carnage of the early rounds as she bowed out to USA power-hitter Madison Keys. She books herself an all-American clash with Lauren Davis who put paid to former champion Daniela Hantuchova in some style with a straight sets 6-3 6-3 win.
The Eastbourne organisers must be drowning their sorrows in ice-cream by the sea-side as wildcard fourth seed, former World No. 1 and two-time Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka joined Agnieszka Radwanska on an early train back to Wimbledon.
Greetings. Global Chick here on my way to and from clay events by way of a quick trip to Los Angeles. ( Love that the tennis channel is here ) I'm staying @ Beverly Hills Hotel for probably my last time.
Jan - Michael Gambill has been globe trotting my style lately. I follow him on Instagram. He has been to Los Angeles , Hawaii , NYC , Doha , Melbourne , China. And that's all in the past week. No. Just kidding but in something like the last six weeks.
Esther Vergeer!! You won another grand slam!!! Wow! .... You also served Daniela di Toro a "double bagel."
