Wimbledon 2025 thread. Jack at Wimbledon!

Sadly the Wimbledon crowd is turning into another celebrity wankfest just like Glastonbury.

It always has been a ‘place to be seen’. You can judge such things based on whether Beckham is there or not !

Indeed but it’s getting worse.

Xu just started on BBC2. A break down already. Just needs to enjoy the experience at her age.

Big win for fellow Brit Sonay Kartal over Ostaapenko earlier. And a potential huge shock brewing on Centre where Alcaraz has been taken to a fifth set by Fognini.

A couple of games on the board for Mimi Xu.

Sun shining, opening day of Wimbledon, packed Number 1 Court. Stuff of dreams.

Mimi would make a great striker...finding the net regularly

She’s holding her own too after a rough start.

Yep, we’ll forgive her losing an early break. Hasn’t done much wrong since then.

All about the experience for her. She’ll,only get better. I hope she doesn’t fold second set and relaxes a bit to hit her shots if the match does slip away.

Raducanu is such a brittle player.. just need Mimi to find some consistency and put her under pressure

Dimi was quite right about Radacanu wasn’t he. I remember him having quite the ding dong (normal for him) about in his opinion she won’t get anywhere near her tournament win again, and will just fall away. Not a fan of tennis myself, and she is still young (I think) so maybe has time on her side.

Seen enough to think this kid has something about her. Mental toughness is there. Could turn into a very good player.

Raducanu is not finding it as easy as she should do. (Ignoring the smoke being blown up her arse by the commentators). Last couple of games have been close.

She’s only 22 and has just gone back into the top 50 after a nightmare year.

She seems to have a good personality as well. Mimi that is.

She had a run where she was relaxed, smiling and everything she hit turned to gold. Then after winning the major it got too serious too soon. Add in the injuries and it’s hard to see her rising again. She should just have fun again.

Great game from Mimi
