Federer not participating this year because he's old an broken.

guten morgen!
still 3 bongs until the tennis marathon starts
I can't handle the hype anymore

4th for the lads

Look at how Fed is already fading into the BG.

I think i caused this.

GOAT LIST

1. Federrer
2. Djokovic
3. Nadal

25-40 range. Murray

Will she ever win anything?

She already won life by being attractive and mediocre at tennis. But in terms of titles Hell nah.

What station is this on here?
>tfw don't get tennis channel

manlets, when will they learn

rolandgarros.com/en_FR/content/the_tournament/info/broadcasters.html

...

she did win, my heart.

PLEASE WATCH OUR SPORT

nth for nishikori to win the French cup

HELP

Gonna be a complete wash today

yay

wow so its literally raining all week

>making that webm
>posting that webm

are you in art school? kill yourself.

please cheer for my countrymen
make tennis great again!

nice sport you got there, yuros

post meme girls
i'll start

Can't name a single Dutch player

zoom in, i named them even though you're not gonna get much mileage out of it

I'd rather cheer for mine BUT
>a 38 old who's been more injured than active
>a mantel that never makes it past 3rd round because his fancy backhand misfires
>a Rastafarian who's game is absolutely chaotic
>some more scrubs that can't beat top 20

At least i can claim Zverev when he wins. Russian if he loses.

>a prodigy that is actually Russian

Richard Krajicek has more Slams than all Canadians combined ever.

Richard Krajicek has as many French Opens as all British Players combined ever.

Gonna be in Philippe-Chatrier for the womens semis.

Should i buy one of those overpriced hats everyone is always wearing?

Just wear your fanciest suit and wear a white fedora.

depends on how overpriced

storerolandgarros.com/stores/rolandgarros/en/product/roland-garros-panama-hat---ivory-navy-ribbon/157329

95€
I wish i was joking.

Agree. everyone loves Murray over here in Scotland, and while I agree he's one of the best int he world right now, he hasn't consistently won enough to be considered anywhere near the top 20 GOAT. It's a bit of a shame because Scotland is fucking horrific at sports in general, and when we get someone who can compete with the very best in the world and he has these three guys to compete against for all of his career.

yikes

twenty bings remaining
everyone get your food ready, open up your tenth beer and smack your wife it's yellow ball time

Made the resolution not to drink during RG.

Will I make it?

If only.

Stil not working. I'm panicking here.

it really does feel like bot's year

Bitch on it in on their Facebook

calm down. format c:\ and install win7

What does that even mean? I have Windows 10.

>sound is shit quality and delayed

FUCKING EUROSPORT REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
FUCK OFF
FUCKING FIX YOUR SHIT

nothing. I was making a cruel joke against computer newbies.

If you can't connect to eurosport than call them up or try to email them immediatly.

Stan the man will save us.

But every year is botyear now

>call them up
I don't want to speak to some Indian tech helper in Mumbai.
>email them immediately
Might do this.

Don't do this. Hitler here is trying to ruin your

Holy fucking shit. Makes you really appreciate TennisTV when you have to sort this crappy Eurosport Player out.

>It's that episode where he shills tennis tv.

How did you even get a job there lad

>That Becker trading AD
Awful

nah mate

his time is limited, he's got another year or two tops then it'll be all downhill if it doesn't happen even sooner.

Can tell you're a casual tbf. Djokobot is going nowhere.

He is declining already, m8.

Who /Popopopopopopopolololo/ ?

>what everyone said on /tennis/ just to get (you)s for 5 years

Not much of a decline. 2015 was just inhumane.

>based THIC Danka

TYBG, dem legs are getting all wet and shiny from the rain too

Younger generation are shit. Closest competition is an old man. A Spaniard whose knees have exploded. A serial choking mentally deficient Scott.

Why can't Djokovic keep his level for more than 1 year at a time? Why is he so inconsistent?

Can tell all the slam casuals are here since Nadal is winning the poll

kyrgios no :(

any streams that aren't complete shit?

I wouldn't call it inconsistent anymore. In the past yes but now it's consistently great. 2015 was excellent and the best season a player ever produced.

You can't expect him to hold that level.

>2015 was excellent and the best season a player ever produced. You can't expect him to hold that level.

Federer managed to get three 3 Slam years and two 2 Slam years in a span of 5 years. Plus he made almost all of the finals in the ones he didn't win. That's so much more impressive and consistent than what Djokovic has ever done.

Crescendo sure gives Nick a hard time.

kyrgios isn't even awake yet

Re write that. Can not for the life of me figure what that means.

Yeah If you take more than one season into account Fed has done better.

That still leaves Djoko at a level where he's better than his main contenders. Even if he can't repeat 2015

All of his somewhat recent defeats were caused by him having a shit day or Stan having the best day of his life. Except Cincinnati maybe.

Nice of the frogs to not bother turning up to watch their own tournament, as always.

How can you not understand what he wrote lmao

youtube.com/watch?v=JzCg7mLrfvs

>unironically watching non-team sports like tennis

I saw that on /r/tennis as well bro :')

lel
>unironically being so cucked by jamal that you completely discard tennis, a sport that you were once best in the world at, in favor of soccer, where you're forever going to be shitty, and hockey where you're getting cucked by finland year after year

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA sure made me laugh bro.

Goddamn, where did this Cecchinato come from? Kyrgios struggling and he isn't even playing poorly.

Be a Dutch

Never clutch

Sijsling and Haase has a magical ability to consistently lose tie breaks

How come some Spaniards go by the first last name only, and some go by both? Is it like a regional thing?

>tfw kyrgios will unironically win a grand slam in your lifetime
>he will do it for the mighty nation of lebanon

These sub top 50 smell the massive money they can get from advancing in a Slam. A third round defeat can finance an entire season for some players.

Here we go.

haha conduct warning

get fucked ump

kyrgiGOAT is always right

But he's half Greek half Malaysian

HALF GREEK HALF AMAZING DESU

they are all the same

bloody darkies ruining my country

Sup Forums please go

Half Leb it is

What's he complaining about?

Sound is so shit I can't hear.

he was called for a conduct warning after pumping his fist and celebrating a point

he is being a sook now and chucking a wobbly

makes him play better though imo

No he got a warning for shouting "towel" at a ball kid
Still dumb tho

why is the ump such a cunt

fucking surrender monkey

I fucking love Kyrgoat.
