Lex Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Good tournament from Murray to get to the third round, but just dropped off physically at the end of the third set there. No surprise given his age. Thats twice he’s lost to Mahac already this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkieRR Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Should give him a ranking boost, anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryMc93 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Sadly says he suffered ankle ligament damage at the end of his match yesterday. Hopefully he can make it back for the grass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 He was obviously on the verge of retirement without this injury, and it sounds like another nasty one. He may have played his last game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuboMoravcik Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I still think he'll make his token appearance at Wimbledon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmca Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Well done to GB's women's team, beating France on clay to qualify for the finals in Seville later this year. Katie Boulter was ragdolled in the first rubber yesterday, but came back today and won convincingly. Emma Raducanu was utter class in both her rubbers. Real signs that she has a good chance of fulfilling her potential if she can get a good run without injuries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I barely noticed the Monte Carlo Masters was on this week. Tsitsipas beat Ruud 2-0 in the final to claim his hattrick there and 3rd in 4 years. His style really seems to suit the clay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printer Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Cameron Norrie beating Bautista Agut in the Barcelona Open was his 200th ATP win. Seven other British men have achieved that milestone. For a bit of fun, can you name those seven. (Clue - they go back to the 1970s.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray, henman, ruzedski, bates, mottram, Lloyd (j), Lloyd (d) would be my guess 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray, Henman, Ruzedski, Mottram, Mark Cox, Roger Taylor are 6 I think from memory of their singles careers at the time (I am that old). Don't think the Lloyds would have had enough singles wins, though John in particular had a good doubles record. Can't think of a 7th atm. Hopefully come to me in my sleep! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was always portrayed as a playboy, but must have done enough on the court. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't think of anyone other than those mentioned by specsaver and myself. On reflection, thought it might have been Jeremy Bates. John Lloyd did have a fairly long career right enough, so fair play to him. Thanks for giving me a sleepless night 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for giving me a sleepless night I surprised myself at missing out Mark Cox, and I would have put him in my list at the expense of D Lloyd but somehow I just have no recollection of Roger Taylor and having just checked his career he was still playing late 70's early 80's . Always good to get the memory working. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 For extra fun, how many of those 7 are/were members of the National Front? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
