Bobj Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Australian teenager Nick Kyrgios has pulled off one of the biggest upsets in Wimbledon history, beating world No.1 Rafael Nadal in four sets to reach the quarter-finals. The 19-year-old, the youngest man in the draw, turned a remarkable Wimbledon main draw debut into a spectacular one, defeating the Spaniard 7-6 (7-5) 5-7 7-6 (7-5) 6-3 in just under three hours on Centre Court on Tuesday. Cheers, Bobj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parley Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Fantastic effort by the young man. I hope he can back it up and beat Raonic tonight. He seems very down to earth and doesn't feel any pressure yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul1Perth Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I started a Wimbledon thread but it didn't get a lot of response. I should have stayed up to watch that but Sharapova went on too long and I thought he would lose anyway. Glad he got through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parley Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Have you noticed Kyrgios's tattoo up the inside of his arm. It sort of looks like an aboriginal painting design of dots. I wonder if it means anything in particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parley Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Actually forget that. Apparently it is sports tape. Not a tattoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritChickx Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I thought it was a tattoo too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Actually forget that.Apparently it is sports tape. Not a tattoo. Rock Tape.. A bit like Strapping tape but gives more flexibility and now comes in all sorts of colours and patterns, i think i must have shares in the company with my daughters knees requiring it alot at the moment,lol Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Berry Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 We sat watching it from 2.00am - 4.00am (felt a bit tired at work today!), great match, Nick was in the zone. I hope he goes all the way to the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
