With all this football noise I totally forgot there is still tennis coverage on TV
I wonder what it means when Seb decides to play without his famous cap :scratch:
Here's the OOP for the doubles match on Tuesday. so excited to see him to play with Arnaud for the doubles again. I will push Angela try to take more photos for this match :lol: hope she didn't forget it.

He explains in L'Equipe he now plays with a different (lighter) racquet to get rid of his shoulder problems. It feels a bit weird, his shots and his serve are not as "heavy" as they used to be and he has to speed up the ball much more with the new racquet, but the most important thing for him is that his shoulder doesn't hurt anymore:
« Pour servir, j’ai parfois la sensation de frapper dans le
vide. Ça fait un peu bizarre, ma balle est moins lourde, j’ai
moins de points gratuits au service. Dans le jeu, il faut que
je donne plus d’accélération. Mais, tant que je n’ai pas
mal à l’épaule, c’est l’essentiel. »
I saw it twice...last year in Paris against Tsonga, and he lost the match, and now against De Voest and he won. So I don't know, it doesn't seem like is has any mysterious meaning...or maybe it's a magic that doesn't always work :haha:
After shoulder, the leg I hope it's not a big injury.
The thigh apparently :
La cuisse de Sébastien Grosjean ne va pas mieux, loin s'en faut. Le Marseillais a été contraint à l'abandon lors de son match contre Andy Murray du deuxième tour sur le gazon du Queen's, alors que l'Ecossais menait 2-0 dans la première manche.
!! same here! it's said about only 15 mins after the match started, Grosjean withdrew. And it showed they massaged his thigh for a while before he left...
Hi Kelly! quite long time haven't talked with u..how r u lately?
In l’Equipe: GROSJEAN DOUTEUX POUR WIMBLEDON.– Quand l’épaule tient, c’est la cuisse qui lâche… Après six semaines d’inactivité, Grosjean le maudit, victorieux lundi de De Voest, n’a pu rejouer hier que quinze minutes face à Murray avant d’abandonner à cause d’une petite lésion, comme à Monte-Carlo. « J’avais ressenti un petit point lundi, mais ce matin à l’échauffement j’avais mal. Le docteur m’a dit que j’en aurai pour dix jours. » Cela signifie qu’il pourrait s’aligner à Wimbledon. En attendant la confirmation, le Français retourne se soigner dans sa famille à Marseille.
I don’t get it because the title says he’s doubtful for Wimbledon and then it says the contrary.
He had already felt a little problem on Monday and his leg was hurting on Tuesday morning during the training. The doctor told him it will take 10 days to recover, which means he would be able to play in Wimbledon. He’ll go back to Marseille in the meantime.
Thanks.....“une petite lésion”....what kind of injury exacty it is? a pull due to tiredness of the muscle? it seems not that too serious as i thought, but since the grass season is so short, even 10 days' rest means no preparation for Wimbledon now!
:lol: Kelly - You don't need to confess to me, coz I also haven't been on MTF for almost 2 years (well, came very rarely only for posting some photos I took from the tournaments i went, and that's it). I went to Australian Open this year, and finally watched his three "memorable" matches :lol: He played so well...even the match lost to Blake when having two sets leading :speakles: I never realized he is so popular in Australia that every of his match is full of the crowds!! I even can not find a place to sit down!! And it's good to see he is very nice to all the fans, gave the autographs to almost every one after winning. And....yes...that's really fantastic experience :lol:
And do you still remember Bix(XUZIZHEN)? She has been in Paris for almost half year. She went to Open 13 this year..well, just for one day, and Seb lost.....She planned to watch RG, but Seb didn't play...at least she wanted to watch his doubles match playing with Guga, but didn't have luck to get the ticket finally. Let's see if she has better luck on TMS Paris at the end of the year, and she would like to ask him about the retirement thing if there's any chance.
BTW, i've been learning French for almost 2 years (not the same purpose as you though, haha)....now we can share the study experience.
