Hev is more aggressive and is more dynamic in doubles and mixed. Shame she can't do the same in singles.

Sad Rafa and Garbi have pulled out of the mixed doubles
but guess it makes sense for Rafa now he is in the Doubles final. I was looking forward to seeing them play together though.

Lovely
I loved those charity matches, the Rally for Bally was fun too. Honestly, I don't think Andy has a bad relationship with many (any?) Brit player. He was having fun with Laura in London too.Well done Heather and Andy! Happy for Heather esp after her Wimbledon win.

The only person i've seen who's not too keen on Andy is Lukas "everyone hates you" Rosol

I'm common as muck, so I've always pronounced Heather as Hever, or even 'Ever with my other sin of dropping H's.
![]() Good win given they weren't even expecting to play, Mirza and Bopanna awaits. |

Lol, I'm a West Midlands girl so pretty common myself, my crime is never saying 'to' and not pronouncing t's properly.

Hev is slang for Heather.
I guess it's just one of those things on the thread that jar with me. Like the constant reference to Goffin as short when he isn't. Quote:
As in saying going pub instead of going to the pub? I do that and I say wa'er, bu'er, etc.

Maybe if you're a character in Eastenders but I have never heard Heather refer to herself that way or heard anyone who speaks about her say it. She just doesn't pronounce her name that way.

Aga and Kubot are out of the mixed doubles. Aga, time to book your plane ticket back to Poland (via Beijing, or somewhere equivalent far out of the way).

Absolute radio would give you a job. I don't think any of their presenters pronounce the letter "t". It drives me mad, I end up shouting at the radio correcting them all the time!

Dan Evans & James McGee play their Challenger quarter final tomorrow.
Qualifier Cameron Norrie's fine run has continued. He plays American Evan King in his quarter final. |
