Wimbledon
What are people's predictions for Wimbledon, which is now underway. It's raining as I type this but the roofs on Centre and No 1 Court means we do have tennis action when the weather is bad although play has to finish at 11pm so there are no late-night/early hours tennis unlike at the other Slams.
Andy Murray begins his campaign today against fellow Brit Ryan Penistone and Cameron Norrie is Britain's highest seed, at number 12. No British women are seeded at this year's tournament.

l like Carlos Alcaraz for the Mens title, as for the Ladies title quite a few could win it on one of their good days.

Re: Wimbledon
I stopped watching tennis when they started to groan like they are in a porn film, or going to the loo.
no need for it, they should be warned and docked points, they never used to do it.

Re: Wimbledon
I went on Monday. Try to get tickets in the ballot every year.
It's a great event/day to be that. The grounds are really nice at this time of year, you can walk around looking at the small courts, gets some Pimms and drink on the hill before going to watch a day of tennis.
Best thing is I am used to the football where you can't drink at your seat. Here you can drink Pimms/Gin and Tonic and so on while watching the match! Great fun. I was Court 1 as well so the roof meant play continued when it rained.
