Olympics Paris Tennis 26th July - 11th August 2024

It is still raining heavily in Paris - no play on outside courts for some time yet. This will play havoc with the schedule again - hope Dan will have enough rest between his singles and the doubles.

Yes I think you are you are right Speedy. The tennis starts at 11.00 am daily - that is the start time in the Radio Times guide anyway. So the Olympics Schedule are showing Paris times rather than local times.

All matches on the outside courts are cancelled for today and there'll be a revised schedule in place tomorrow.
Play continues under cover on Chatrier and Lenglen.

certainly frustrating, thought we had enough rain at the opening cermony!

I noticed when watching Carlos match and now Carlos/Nadal match, scoreboard is sooooooooo slow. I am spoiled with fast Grand Slams and ATP scoreboard. I forgot how slow Olympics scoreboard is. Score update just before they about serve play next point.

Looks like Cam has withdrawn. Griekspoor is now playing Tsitspas P!

In Singles R2:
Draper v Fritz
Evans v Tsitsipas

Tough matches for Jack and Dan, Cameron pulled out due to injury and De Minaur also pulled out of the singles at the last minute but is expected to play Doubles.

Nadal only won 1 single game off Nole. Wow what times have changed! King of Clay cannot win more than single game so far on clay. Most likely straight sets win for Nole.

I posted when Nole was 6-1, 3-0 up. Now it all changed in 2nd set, 4-3 with Nole still break up. Nadal hanging on there somehow.
