Not Brit related but did anyone see what happened to Tsonga? Retired while leading 5-2 in the first against Gulbis. Shame for the home crowd. I always think JWT is worth a watch.


Long-standing knee injury, apparently.

Interesting.  Aljaz appears to be wearing adidas kit, yet he has the good sense & taste not to bedeck himself in those ghastly zebra stripes!

Just discovered that the Brazilians use the term Zebra, for what we would call an Underdog.  Was chatting with a colleague here today and talking wbout the up coming football match between Real Madrid and Athletico, and he said he was supporting Athletico because they were the Zebra.

Equally interesting, Bob.  I guess Aljaz is not perceived to be a star name - yet... wink

P.S.  I don't think there's an "h" in Atlético when it refers to Madrid, only Bilbao (for historical reasons) - & then there's no "o" at the end! wink

Certainly Nadal and Tsonga out takes some dangers away in Aljaz's half. Now if he can just come back against this Djokovic guy ...
