Oh what a nightmare cry

His chance to show the LTA re the Queen's WCs too (though given the choice of a home player or an overseas player who beats the home player 7-5 in the 3rd set t/b, I know who every other federation under the sun would pick)

Oh dear Alex, should have won that with the chances he had. cry

daisy · County player

Oh, Boggo. Would have so good for you to win that one.

Unfortunately, given the choice between Bogdanovic and Dimitrov, I also know who every federation under the sun would pick.

oh dear alex. and you want them to give you a Wimbledon WC? You claim you have no mental issues? yet you crack under pressure 99% of the time. twice in this match, at the end of the 2nd set and crucially at the end of the 3rd when you served for it. I'm not claiming i wouldn't crack under the pressure, but i think i could admit it at least and try and get help. its not just physical ability.
