All the best Ironside. Hope you get home soon.
Had a good day at Wimbledon with my mum on Monday. Was really glad of the massive queue for groundpasses as we got in at 10:30 with our court two tickets and a very small queue and managed to get a seat courtside on a small outside court to see a five set epic between Jordan Thompson and Nakashima. Great comeback as Thompson looked completely out of it for two sets and then started serve volleying - I've never seen a full five setter in person before so it was pretty cool. By 2pm after the short rain delay it was noticably much much fuller, so we spent most of the rest of the time in our court two seats. Interestingly our seats were right next to the player boxes, next to coach and family. So we saw Katie Swan's muted and disappointing performance and her coaches useless encouragement against a frustrated and under par Bencic and Dan Evans looking incredibly low on confidence go two sets down as the light got darker. Wouldn't bet on Evans to win a match in the near future after that, he looked completely shot, full of self doubt.
Glad we weren't there on Tuesday for all the rain
Thiem vs Tsitsipas was match of the tourney so far. Great drama and I'm sure Murray was enjoying watching a five setter with his feet up at home.
[/b] I was lucky enough to be there on Court 2 yesterday. The first time I've been on that court, and I must say that it was a far better spectator experience than on Centre Court or Court 1 IMO The rain delays were a pain, of course, but the Kostyuk turnaround was remarkable to witness, and I think she benefited enormously from the rain breaks. And then there was the Thiem / Tsitsipas match. The vast majority of the crowd were supporting Thiem, so he'll be a little more prepared for tonight's match. Amazing, top quality tennis - which is always far more impressive IRL - throughout a match that could have gone either way until the final tie-break

That was an excellent deep run Stu. You must have been mentally exhausted, but still found your way out of two seriously short-stacked positions during the course of the 3 days. Gutting because you were one coup away from a seriously good score.
I love playing at Wynn/Encore. It’s the only place I’ve found where you can get a very good double espresso Americano at the tables. I also love that you want to jump back on the horse again and play today - but please only play if you’re truly feeling right about it. No-one would begrudge you a day off after such a grind.
Either way, we’re all rooting for you. Good/better luck!
