Nadal always gets an easy draw, even as #10 seed , it's a joke.

Every single post you have made has been negative. Try being positive for a change, you will be surprised how much happier it will make you feel.

I just came in to ask if they were driving anyone else nuts. So annoying, changing after every point and standing up in front of people. They're at all the Aussie matches too

Cannot believe that carry on is tolerated :eek:

Surely someone (even Kyrgios or whoever else they're "supporting") must complain at some point that they're a distraction?

Won't be able to watch much more of this match (and I've only just turned it on) if that's on every changeover.....

I don't understand how they get those front row seats behind the baseline for every match there's an Aussie playing, no matter which court. Anyone?

I'd be calling the gards anyway. Shower of morons making listening to the commentary at work absolutely unbearable so have switched over to Cilic/Berankis

I'm a big fan of Kyrgios but these Aussie supporters are akin to fingernails on chalkboards.

What I wanna know is how do they get such good seats? Every year!!:mad: I'd kill for those seats and be quiet as a mouse. I wonder if they're members of Tennis Australia. AFAIK, they do a ballot for tickets.

They should be warned by security ,I'm surprised the hothead Krygios is that he would not tell them to stfu

HeidiHeidi

Well they've done for my viewing anyway.

Back to the civilised match that is Haas/Raonic. C'mon Haas!!!

This is what I can't understand. It has to drive the players nuts as well - why do they put up with it?

Floppybits

Nishikori injured again. is he made of paper or something?

Didn't Hewitt use to make sure that they had tickets for the matches?

seanhynes

We're here for 2 more points in the sun then 1 my dear they are the biggest idiots Iv ever witnessed at a sporting event not 1 remotely good chant absolutely get out I would bar them from his next match at my request if I was Kyrgios.
Great performance that he's a class act

TICKLE_ME_ELMO

Even the Australian's don't like the Fanatics. There's loads of post on twitter about them being an embarrassment to the country. I'm all for passionate fans and showing your support but planned, organised and rehearsed cheering is just stupid.

I know all the wrong people!

34c now!!:eek: Apparently, they've reduced capacity numbers today because of the heat. Give the crowd more space.

What irks me is the people who try to get a ticket and cant and then you get all these clowns on Henman Hill sunning themselves all day and watching tennis on the big screen.

Gutted I'm gonna miss the end of this, it's been brilliant.

Also gutted for anyone who was dying for centre court tickets today. So many empty seats.

I hope the empty seats are because people are taking a heat break.....and not because they're not bothered.

Heather Watson through to the 3rd round. She'll likely play Serena who's up after Cilic-Berankis.

seanhynes

Hope Berankis does this ,shown great heart

Such a dissapointing way to end it .. on a double fault net cord ...

seanhynes

Rotton after all that work ,cruel

RosyLily

Sickened for him!! Bad way to go after all his hard work.:(

I'm not a hardcore tennis fan, don't know a whole lot about him, but I'm losing interest fast.

And as for his fans......

WTF is a "Serena Slam"?

Honestly, some of the hype the BBC come up with is just ridiculous.

And interviewing all the newspaper journos about Heather Watson's win..... puh-lease.

It would be some achievement if she does it. Basically it's all 4 grand slams in one calender year , the Australian (done) French (done) Wimbledon (in progress) and the US open .

Steffi was the last female to manage it but at Serena's age it would arguably be even more impressive.

But they're also on about her doing a "calendar grand slam" which I presume is what you outline above......

Suppose I could just go and google it

Yes calendar grand slam as in all 4 slams in same year, she has allready done the career grand slam (all 4 in any year) multiple times.

This game, between Williams and Babos, is absolutely awful. So many unforced errors and bad first serves.
