Crazy indeed!! Players slipping and sliding and getting injured. (but of course there is NOTHING wrong with the grass according to the "official" groundskeeper.) Five former #1 womens players eliminated in a SINGLE DAY!!! Fed out, Rafa out......Tsonga injured.. the Belgian "tomato can" that beat Rafa pulled out the very next day with a shoulder injury.. DelPotro now worried about his knee and ankle. Hope that Serena gets through unscathed!

The Men's Final was great at the end, but for my money the best match of Wimbledon was the Women's Lisicki-Radwanska SemiFinal:

Hi Imelda..Exciting days..Hope all is well with you ? I usually do not post anything about the rounds for anti-jinx purposes . But I am posting this picture for you..Bad news that Uncle Toni has a bad back and is resting at Rafa2s house at Wimbledon.. Rafa always has eye contact with his Uncle/Coach while playing, hope Toni gets well soon and will be there to support his nephew.. Tough Draw for Rafa !!

WIMBLEDON 2014
Imelda, our boy turns into classics:
London Philharmonic Orchestra to star in Wimbledon advert with Rafael Nadal By Mel Spencer, 20th June 2014, 17:32
Musicians will star alongside Rafael Nadal in an advert for ESPN, promoting Wimbledon 2014.

Trumpeters, string players and percussionists from the London Philharmonic Orchestra were let loose on Centre Court with their instruments this afternoon to film an advert for sports network ESPN. Players even took the trouble of transporting a set of timpani and a harp to the iconic sporting venue - stationing them just inches away from the famous grass court.
The performers, dressed in white tie concert dress, posed for a photo with tennis star Rafael Nadal, who swapped his racquet for a slightly more classical prop. Image Great meeting @rafaelnadal today whilst filming for the new @espn advert at @wimbledon ! pic.twitter.com/1cKp2ON1Vh — London Philharmonic (@lporchestra) June 20, 2014
As well as featuring a classical soundtrack, the advert will feature voice overs from Game of Thrones star Kit Harington, Kate Winslet and Clive Owen. The finished product is set to hit screens later this week.

Heavens, the boy scared me SILLY this afternoon. I had to turn the TV OFF after the 1st set. ? (Oh ye of little faith? lol) I DID turn it back ON though. He had to dig deep. BUT he WON!!! That person Rosol has an incredibly INFLATED opinion of himself? AND a REALY BIG mouth! I am extremely happy that Rafa prevailed and sent his sorry behind back to Prague? He needs to learn some humility, and some MANNERS!!!
VAMOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BABY!!!!!

I cant believe this.. What a horrible tower that Aussie was.. It was not tennis..I hate that ..And Why is it that Rafa always gets on-fire young guys in his Draw and Federer does not.. He walks in the park -His oppponent was Robredo, imagine that.. Murrey is gone too..Sharapova gone.. Serena pulled out from the Doubles too, she is sick.. (((((
