Topic: Wimbledon
21. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Mon 7th Jul 2025. 21:20 A real shame for Grigor Dmitrov. He was two sets up on Sinner when having to retire. He’s 34 now and won’t have too many more chances. It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply
22. Author: Paralex Date: Tue 8th Jul 2025. 13:09 I had forgotten that Cameron Norrie had such a strong Scottish link, his dad being from Glasgow. Just as I thought, it takes a Scot to do the business at Wimbledon, although I don`t see him progressing much further this year and he is 29, so maybe this is as good as it gets. Reply

Got to agree there, Paralex, it takes the Scots to actually make an impact at Wimbledon, the rest of the home nations just don`t have the necessary grit Reply

26. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Tue 8th Jul 2025. 20:58 buffy, Tue 8 Jul 19:56 Cracking watch. Yes, they always put one on after the game and before the interview. It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply
27. Author: Paralex Date: Tue 8th Jul 2025. 21:03 Thought tonight`s game would be the final hoorah for Norrie. I do like Alcaraz though. I fancied Sinner to do the business this year but looks like Alcaraz must be favourite now. Reply

30. Author: Paralex Date: Wed 9th Jul 2025. 00:48 Think you might just be right about that Raymie. Reply
31. Author: parsmad68 Date: Wed 9th Jul 2025. 10:52 Did anyone hear how Sinner’s scan went on his elbow? Reply

I do like Alcaraz though. I fancied Sinner to do the business this year but looks like Alcaraz must be favourite now. Sinner is not as effective on grass and Alcaraz currently has his number. I think Sinner beat Alcaraz at Wimbledon quite comfortably previously? Both have looked a bit vulnerable at times in this tournament but you would have to favour Alcaraz currently. Reply
33. Author: Parnott Date: Sat 12th Jul 2025. 17:35 Women`s final 6-0 6-0 was crazy. Just read that centre court capacity around a tennis court is 14,900 but EEP around a footy pitch at 11000 is nearly as crazy. Reply
34. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Sat 12th Jul 2025. 21:18 I wonder how much a centre court ticket was and for what ? Women getting the same prize money as men, I believe? I wonder if Wimbledon will be regretting that decision ? It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply
35. Author: Rusty Shackleford Date: Sun 13th Jul 2025. 15:42 Raymie the Legend, Sat 12 Jul 21:18 I wonder how much a centre court ticket was and for what ? Women getting the same prize money as men, I believe? I wonder if Wimbledon will be regretting that decision ? My men`s final ticket last year was £250 or so from memory so I`d imagine that ballpark.

36. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Sun 13th Jul 2025. 17:49 I’ve since read a ticket was £350. It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply
37. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Sun 13th Jul 2025. 19:26 Well, I got that wrong. Congratulations to Sinner for coming back from that devastating defeat in Paris. This took a lot of testicular fortitude. It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply
38. Author: Big T Par Date: Sun 13th Jul 2025. 19:33 Was bugging me the whole game who he looks like. Turns out it`s Davie Moyes 🤔 Reply

How did you get a ticket for the final Rusty? Was it in the ballot? Reply
40. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 14th Jul 2025. 10:55 I`ve often wondered about the demographics of a Wimbledon Final crowd. Yesterday a popped champagne cork landed on the Centre Court during play apparently! Reply
