Tennis!

Federer through to the final after his opponent retired hurt with blisters.

Wozniacki has won her first Grand Slam. I'm happy for her because I felt until recently that her best days were behind her.

[Adam]

Same, really pleased for her as she has looked for a long time like failing to fulfill the promise she showed in her earlier career. I do hope Halep gets over the line with a Slam soon too as she's lost in three finals now.

[Paton]

Who is your pick for the men’s final? I’d love an upset from Cilic. 

[Bobfoc]

I'll be rooting for a Cilic upset, but I think Federer has to be the realistic choice.

Recently stumbled across this article:

Now, EWB. What colour would you describe a tennis ball as? 

[Lineker]

Hi-vis yellow, obviously. 

[Adam]

Green. I also thought that dress was blue & black.

[Malenko]

I say yellow.

The one below is both, though.

Its a blend of both.  You can't achieve that tennis ball color without yellow and green.

[The Lusophone]

So I initially went Green and voted that way... now I'm not so sure.

[MDK]

I wasn't sure so I asked my dog if it was green or yellow and he said yes.

I think this topic is incredibly racist toward tennis balls. I don't see tennis balls by what colour they are. They can be any colour they want to be, they don't have to be green or yellow to be accepted you monsters. I for one would be very happy with a purple tennis ball and I'm sure a lot of others would be too.

[Gazz]

It's yellow, the colour mandated by the Wimbledon rules even names it as 'Optic Yellow'.

I feel to really get with the times Tennis Balls should be vantablack from now on.

French Open 2018: Marco Cecchinato shocks Novak Djokovic to reach semi-finals

[Bobfoc]

It's a good story, and I always like to see an underdog run at a Grand Slam. I think Nadal and Thiem will contest the men's final, with Nadal the obvious favourite (although Thiem has beaten him a couple of times on clay on the ATP Tour). Sloane Stephens is looking very good in the women's tournament. She'd be my pick if I were a betting person. 

[Adam]

Honestly I think Djokovic is done as a top player. The desire isn't there nor is the luck with injuries now it's all caught up to him.

[MDK]

Djokovic not seeming to last as long as Rafa and Federer just doesn't feel right.

Edmund as British No1 as well? Weird shift in tennis at the mo.
