So, the French Open has just finished, you know tennis is the only sport I actually enjoy yeah? So here’s the thing, clay just doesn’t float my boat, not really sure why, hard court and grass, yes? I wonder if it is something to do with Nadal winning everything on clay for a while and subconsciously his butt picking ways put me off. I don’t think I have ever liked it? I do however one day want to go to Roland Garros and check it out, I think I need to go there and buy one of those poxy hats they all seem to wear. You’ll be able to pick me out in the crowd, I’ll be the tourist wearing sunnies and no name brand clothing, why don’t Europeans wear sunnies? I hope the joint doesn’t collapse before I get there, looks like a bit of a dump, you’d think someone would give the walls a once over with a pressure cleaner before the event?
I do however have to commend whoever allowed the ball kids to wear Adidas this year though. FRICKIN AWESOME outfit for the ball girls. I would wear this as everyday wear, LOVE it! Would have to say the best I have ever seen.
Triple striper knee highs and that pleated skirt are awesome. The shoes, did you see the shoes?
This is almost enough of a marketing victory to get me back into the sport, or at least to buy the entire outfit and leave in a cupboard never to be worn?
I don’t really enjoy the women’s finals as a rule. Yes, I am a fan of Serena Williams, but she usually wins in straight sets and it’s all over in a very short amount of time. However, she had to work her neon covered arse off this time, it was great to see. She lost the plot there for a while and got very cross with herself, but she got the job done, eventually. Her unforced error stats were up there with mine, if you don’t know what an unforced error is, just a fancy term for a fuckup! I also loved her fashion choice, this can’t always be said for this feisty lass. Fluro leopard print, yes please! I am not sure who the Village of The Damned wannabe in her box was either, must google later. Interesting to note in her press conference, Serena wore a nice blue crocheted top? True! BTW, she played Lucie Safarova, yeah, only thing interesting about her is she is a leftie.
The Frenchies have disabled the embedding feature of youtube, so you’re gonna have to click to open :/ Women’s Final highlights with Village of The Damned dude evidence
Men’s final, well, what can I say, I had to go for Novak Djokovic even with his weird hair as he was playing Stan Wawrinka, bloody Stan who beat my Rog, AGAIN! Bloody Stan with the dodgy shorts. I had to go for Novak, he is my sister’s choice, if I can’t go for my choice I usually go for hers, also the fact that he beat Nadal AND Murray to get to the final, AND believe it or not he has never won the French Open. I blame the shorts, put Novak off his game, bloody Stan!
Mens Highlights with dodgy short action
See how they positioned this photo, with Stan’s shorts hidden by the net! Not just me it seems!
