radar showing some potential here lads

all the rain spinning/drifting to the south and west

yay more rain for me

morning lads
is this the worst grand slam ever?
between Federer pulling out, Rafa pulling out, Tsonga retiring mid-match, AND countless delays and cancellations from rain.

>rain all day again

i still think the 2014 us open might have taken place in some sort of parallel universe

2012 uso was kinda horrible too and i dont want to talk about the 2009 wimbledon either, partially for flag related reasons

i like their multimedia it's on point and shows a lot of insight for people who can't walk around and see those things in person

Nah, this is just the average French Open.

Oh jesus look at that rain

...

...

BUILD ROOF

that strycova-radvanska one cracks me up everytime.
looks like toddlers or something

...

doing circles over paris

Looks funny on the satellite pictures

>rips his tendon by carrying the flag

he doesn't put overgrip on the entire handle

>yfw da djokic will win da rolan garos

FROG

what a disaster

>tfw Goffin could enter top 10 today

>this RG will be cancelled
>Djoko will never ever win the French and complete the career slam

so theres no chance this ends on schedule is there

>this """"""""grand""""""""" slam

court covers are being taken off

>no roof
>no floodlights
>no hawk-eye
What do these guys do with their revenue? If they can't get their shit together ITF should move the clay slam elsewhere

Don't bother watching today btw, will rain like a bitch

reminder that roofs are cancer and an outdoor tournament should be an outdoor tournament for ALL matches

reminder that the roof at wimbledon is the only reason Federer beat Murray in the 2012 final

Fuck off cunt

>muh tradition
Indoor courts are the only way to make things fair for everyone

i'll put you in the fucking ground mate, you little casual scrote.

it isn't fair for eveyrone it changes the matches that take place under a roof massively

Should Indian Wells replace RG as a grand slam?

Should the Open 13 at Marseille replace RG as a Grand Slam?

Should the ABN Amro World Tennis Tournament at Ahoy Rotterdam replace RG as a Grand Slam?

The amount of people that just went "should x replace RG as a Grand Slam?" proves the predictable, smart ass nature of this board.

All of you try and impress each other with these funny green text comments, from someone who doesn't spend all their life online, it looks ridiculous.

To hell with this I'm off, don't wanna waste my life on "addictive and funny Sup Forums".

Moot pls go

...

Should the addictive and funny Sup Forums replace RG as a Grand Slam?

@68000963

You're not going to bait anyone with that old pasta David.

They could reshuffle the slams a bit so it's during a season when it doesn't rain all the fucking time.

It's basically Summer there

They should convert all Australian tennis courts to clay and all French and Spanish courts to hardcourt.

why cant djokovic judt fuck off abd die already?

THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN

you know that still counts as a you

most excited to watch gasquet, svitolina and bertens desu

Because you died sometime after Wimbledon 2013 and this is actually hell.

It's a pretty ugly looking place, what with all the concrete and dirty sticky clay everywhere. Doesn't contrast well at all. The seating arrangement isn't easy on the eye either. There's only so much those trees can do, they're working overtime.

Batista-Agut is the most pointless seed ever.

What does he ever do? Has he ever even beaten a top 20 opponent in a GS?

Dat mudball

>agut's record

fucking yawn. can this guy be expelled from the seeds and someone who can actually challeneg the decent players be put in instead.

agut is a literal clay pigeon for all top 10 players. it's like a free-pass to the next rounf

>not putting a giant plastic canvas over the stadiums to serve as a quick makeshift roof

>showing Djokovic instead of Thiem
reee

Is it not being shown anywhere?

i literally played football on clay pitches as an 11-13 year old child during winter in all disgusting weather. why can't these tennis player poofs just play through the rain too?

>expelled from the seeds
They seed the top 30 ranked players, you can't just expel someone that is ranked 16th...

no it is. it's just just that the acestream i have isn't showing it :^)

the ball must bounce

>tfw you will never be this aesthetic

>inb4 it rains and forget about fucking tennis for the day

The frogs will build roof when we pay debts.

Never.

is anyone else struggling to see the ball?

yeah and it's not because of the quality of the stream

Actually yes, here.
I have no idea why, didn't have any problems the previous days.
I'm watching it on tv in hd too.

im watching on the tv and struggling

Yeah not too easy to follow at the moment.

>get broken
>break back
fucking what is the point of being a djokovic fan? you know he's going to win it every time no matter what. where is the excitement?

yea same

BUILD

Combination of low light and dark clay probably. Though I doubt that's any different to previous days.

yeah, can see it a lot more clearly now its new balls.

must've been because the balls were soaking and full of clay all over

list of people literally raped by rain delays

>nishikori
>halep
>radwanska (JUST)

who am i forgetting

>who am i forgetting

Us.

Me too, I can see just fine now.
Weird.

This would actually make sense in my case if you said 2011

hold your fucking serve, bAUTISTA

>getting broken 3 times in a set by Bautista Agut


JUST

>mfw Djokovic loses because of rainb all

I feel you senpai but someone's gotta make up the numbers

The difference in skill level between the top4 and the rest of the top 32 is actually smaller than you think. Mentally Agut can't go to the next level, it's beyond his control

>Djokovic loses
>losing
>Djokovic
yeah nah

Because he is goat, simple as that.

Only losers who use two handed backhand needs a full overgrip

DJOKOVIC CHOKING. B0T AND WATER DUNT MIX.

>Hawkeye on clay

are you dumb ?

>he plays one handed backhand
sup grandpa

IT'S OVER

DJOKO IS FINISHED

CAN HE DO IT?

The marks are unreliable too you know. Depending on how loose or tough the clay is at that point the mark might be smaller or bigger than the real footprint. These things are affected by the weather

literally yelled "COME ON" when bAUTISTa won the set
that's how excited seeing anything other than >DWL gets me

call me delusional but Rafa would have fucking REKT Djokovic.

>Djokko went up and left the fucking court without the Ref stopping the game

ASSHOLE.

I've watched this episode before
Pretty sure Djokovic was a set and a break down in a masters to bautista agut and then won

If Bautistic wins this will become the best slam of the decade as opposed to the worst

France Tv are such fuck-ups that they ain't showing the Thiem game.. Instead you get Radjwanska. Fuck that.

I can see clearly now the rain has gone

>>no hawk-eye

The French won't want to officially use a British invention.

I missed the first set of djoker. Where can i catch up?

this

>djoko loses the first set, go out for a bit
>come back, eurosport showing thiem game

What happened???
