Wimbledon 2019 - OT - London Goes Nuts for Coco
- Thread starter Mcfrank
- Start date
She's gonna have to learn to overcome tough calls and bad breaks sooner or later so I guess she's getting her lesson now
Yep, you have to get there early and wait some hours in The Queue, but it's such a well-organized process, so orderly, you should look at it as a pre-match picnic. You arrive, look for the flag indicating end of queue, get your queue card and then you can move around to the stalls selling food or toilets while the sections move forwards.
You're absolutely right.
She seems to have more or less recovered...really pushing Halep hard!

OP
And what made you decide on a grounds pass vs trying for centre or court 1? Do you wish you had gone with a show court or was a grounds pass enough at early in the tournament?
It's a magical place. I used to queue overnight every year for show courts. Needa go back next year I think.
If you get a ground pass on finals day and wait until the singles is done there's a chance you can get a doubles final ticket resale. A lot of people just go for the singles.
We just didn't consider camping over night to try for the biggest courts. Was never really something we wanted to do. Maybe some day. But yeah, first couple of days, plenty of big name action on courts 3-18, stars and new talents, never ran out of matches we wanted to see.
A lot of people in the resale queue the first days as well, not sure how big a shot you have at getting show court tickets, but with that many people in the queue I guess some of them must.
For sure some do, but first week has so many courts seeing action I wouldn't waste my time to be honest.
unfortunately, Coco is getting impatient with her shots, Halep is playing smart defensively
Valiant doesn't even begin to cover it...this girl is going to be an absolute superstar. What a tournament she's had!
Heck of a breakout tournament for Gauff. I'm sure the US Open will give her a wildcard too and I'll be at the open this year. Would love to see her play
When that ball hit the line and died, you'd be tempted to just make up an injury and go home. Nothing going right for him at all
Pella put up a great fight, but...yeah basically
Maybe. As of now there's literally no reason for any of them to consider retirement. Fed is going to still be going deep into slams in his 40s because next gen is so weak
Big 3 all cruised to the quarterfinals on the mens side. Meanwhile none of the top 6 seeds on the womens side made it past the 4th round.
Riske has a lot to proud of no matter how this match goes. Incredible tournament for her. Hope she can take that in the US Open.
Grass has always been Riskes strongest surface. I don't see her translating that to hard courts since she hasn't already but we'll see
