Get to the pharmacy and pick up an antifungal cream then FFS.

McEnroe wasn't exactly likable but he still did extremely well.

And on the theme of likeable champions, there's a 'poll' on teh Winbledon site where you can vote for your favourite Wimbledon champions of all time.

If you bother to click through, on the Women's vote, they have Miss E Goolagong and Mrs R Cawley listed spearately. Hopefully they're combining the votes...

And who's Mrs. J. M. Lloyd? I suppose, Mrs. Greg Norman.. right?

Overhyped sports event with stupid tradition and culture, IMO. Why a person should be known as a spouse of someone else and not by herself?

Starts today under the new retractable roof - ironically the weather is supposed to be great over the next 2 weeks

like a black fly in your chardonnay?

though I never understood what was ironic about that . . ..

Dokic out in the first round to a girl she should have thrashed, but Stosur through in 3.

Federer off to a breezy start to regain his Wimbledon title.

Hewitt through comfortably enough..plus obligatory bec sightings

And Sharapova out in the second round. Mirza out as well as she once again failed to move past 2nd round.

Federer played few of his stunning shots but isn't as fluent as he was 2 years back!

2,2 and 4 seems pretty comfortable to me.

Dokic out in the first round

pfffft - the fat Serbian.

PMSL

Del Potro, the semi finalist of FO, loses in the 2nd round to Hewitt in straight sets.

So the stage is set for Hewitt to lose to an absolute nobody then?

Hewitt looks like losing to Radek Stepanek who's main claim to fame, I think, was being on of Martina Hingis' hapless lovers.

Fed through to the QF - looks like he'll play Ivo Karlovic who I think might have a bit of a chance given that his serve has barely been broken all tournament.

Murray under the cosh from Wawrinka.
One set down and 2-2 second set.

The useless Scot Murray is losing. Typical Jock!

But Andy the plucky Brit might pull it round for us yet.

Errrr ..... Hewitt wins through.

Useless Sozzie becomes heroic Aussie.

Looks like the British player will pull through...

Have to say Centre court looks rather cool with the roof closed and play going on at a quarter past ten at night.

Oops spoke too soon, the Scot just got broken back.

all square again. Murray out on his feet, says I.

You know nothing.

Brit through in 5 sets...

Ah, he got lucky...

He got British.

Got Milk?
