Things you thought you'd never see.

Bouchard and the Canada crew tried to copy Serena/Sloane/Madison on the see-saw, but it was broke. Also the latest craze to sweep the tennis players besides Pokemon Go... collecting Olympic pins!

It's great that they're all having such a blast in Rio, they're like big kids in Disneyland, basically getting practice sessions out the way early so they can spend all day playing in the village. It's especially good for all the first time or second time Olympians, because yes Wimbledon Part 2 was fun 4yrs ago, but being off-site the first time Olympians back then never really got to have that full Olympic experience.

Your bizarre taste in men never ceases to amaze and amuse me.

Plus I got really confused for a second, because I was thinking hold on why is JJ aka Jankovic waiting to greet Aga.

No, Ana is just doing singles. JJ is though, continuing her budding partnership with Krunic. They meet Watson & Konta in the first round.

Shame. They would do pretty well and have a great chance of medalling. Have they ever played doubles together or is there still some beef between them?

They have in Fed Cup in the long and distant past. I'd say it's civil now they're older and wiser, definitely a lot better than it was in their hey-days.

I notice JJ was standing at the back next to Djoko in the group photo. Thought she was trying to stay away from Ana.

I'm assuming David Mercer will do the badminton again.

Unless things have changed, the BBC are not sending any of their own people out for tennis or badminton

http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/mediapacks/rio/tv

They will be using the English language feed provided by OBS. Always possible they may get Henman and co into a small room in Manchester to commentate on the final if needed, though.

It's been moved from the Sport sub-forum to in amongst the Entertainment section to get more casual interest. Here's the direct link for it - http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=255

Interesting the amount of tennis players that are in action tomorrow and attending the opening ceremony still. Looking forward to their insiders perspective of the ceremony on snapchat. (I'm not a crazy stalker, honest! )

Castle is not in Rio - he was on LBC this afternoon covering the drive time show.

Maybe he'll commentate from the UK, like he did for the DC in Serbia.
