It’s nearly that time of the year again when tennis fans across the world will flock to the hallowed turf of the All England Club. Freshly cut grass, Pimms and strawberries, “new balls please” – Wimbledon is an English institution, and we love it. For all those lucky ticket holders travelling to SW19 this year,…
I’ll be trying my best to get some ATP content out this fortnight on Moo’s Tennis Blog although as always, i’ll be focussing on the women. When making my picks i’m so much more decisive with the men and it’s much more straightforward for the early rounds. Let’s take a look at each quarter of…
I’m so excited for Wimbledon! There’s always this weird feeling when it actually comes around as it’s my favourite two weeks of the year. I’m off work now for the tournament so i’m really going to enjoy it. The draw came out this morning and the order of play for day 1 at the 2015…

The 2014 Wimbledon Championships concluded with an awesome men’s final and arguably the match of the year as Novak Djokovic defeated Roger Federer, 6-7(7) 6-4 7-6(4) 5-7 6-4 to win his second Wimbledon title. I don’t have a great deal to add to it. It was THE BEST. Djokovic served for the match in…
Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer will bring the curtain down on the 2014 Wimbledon Championships. It’s been another awesome Wimbledon although I can’t hide my disappointment at the two men’s semi-finals that took place on Thursday. In the first match, Djokovic edged Grigor Dimitrov in four sets, 6-4 3-6 7-6(2) 7-6(7). It was an insanely…
Petra Kvitova and Eugenie Bouchard will contest what is likely to be a fascinating conclusion to the 2014 women’s Wimbledon Championships. Bouchard progressed into her first Grand Slam final after defeating Simona Halep, 7-6(5) 6-1. It was an odd semi-final, one that promised so much, but didn’t quite deliver. The crucial moment seemed to come…
The second of the men’s semi-finals will see another first time Grand Slam semi-finalist, Milos Raonic battle against one of the greats in Roger Federer. Raonic overcame Nick Kyrgios in a tough four setter on No.1 Court, 6-7(4) 6-2 6-4 7-6(4). It was an entertaining match considering the predictably high quality of serving and number…
Grigor Dimitrov prevented a repeat of the 2013 Wimbledon final (lucky us) as he produced a sensational display to beat Andy Murray and set up a tantalising semi-final with Novak Djokovic. I’m relieved that Murray has gone out because the BBC coverage in the UK has been absolutely exhausting. Even today they were midway through…
Here’s my final report from Wimbledon with plenty of photos for your viewing pleasure. It was another crazy day full of tennis, full of excitement and full of Pimms. I got really lucky with tickets this year being able to go twice. I hope the ballot gods are on my side again next year! Lucie…
