I'm 5 minutes into the 'Belonging' episode of Break Point, and while you can say what you like about Kyrgios, he's a funny bugger.
Glad he's funny, because he doesn't play much tennis, withdrawn from Wimbledon, hard to think Netflix are doing right in featuring him so heavily, but ho-hum

.Djokovic will win the mens obvs, women's could be more intersting, Rybakina not been well for awhile and Swiatek and Sabalenka not much of a track record on grass. Keys and Kvitova like the surface, but are pretty flaky.

May have a crazy small bet on Kastkina and Vekic, because I think capitalism is evil and I don't like money.

sabalenka goes in as the favorite in my opinion...rybakina if healthy certainly has a good chance...swiatek is getting better on grass but don't see her going all the way this year...

on the men's side, douche-ovic will win obviously...

Alcaraz two sets up but Chardy is really having a go in the third set It’s 4-5 in his favour on serve

playing undercover on Court 1

apparently Chardy is retiring if he loses today

Alcarez wraps up a straight set win in fine style

really enjoy watching this kid play and boy can he hit the ball hard

Chardy leaves to a standing ovation which Alcarez joined in with. Good sportsmanship seeing that

Kate the future queen sitting next to Roger Federer , watching Andy Murray v Ryan Peniston on centre court

Peniston had cancer as a kid

Murray leads 2-1 first set on serve

I didn't know much about their friendship until they were both well into the twilight of their careers but it has certainly been a special one...the closest parallel may be the Fedal friendship...Evert was my favorite female tennis player growing up...when she married Norman, I thought maybe he isn't such a prize dickhead after all if she can fall in love with him...obviously she realized her mistake and moved on... :D

It was last year, so he did make it to the Wimbledon final. I don't think he'll feature so heavily in the next season.
