Queens, Monday 8th June

If any picture was going to sum up this day, it’d be this one:

Shut up we’re having fun

It doesn’t take much rain to stop a tennis match and it was going almost all day.  Play finally started around 6PM.  It probably would have been earlier, but like an idiot I’d taken my raincoat off when they tried to get started earlier in the afternoon and jinxed the whole thing.

But we did, eventually, get some tennis.  Qinwen Zheng played Jacqueline Cristian and lost a couple of tight sets, and then Leylah Fernandez played Katie Boulter for a set and a half until the light gave out.

All that said, it was still a lot of fun.  I’ll be back next year.

…and obviously I took a load of pictures.  The gallery’s here.
