My whole evening has been a big dilemma!
The cricket was on one channel.
Kyrgios was on another channel.
Djokovic was on another channel.
Alcaraz was on another channel.
Kokkinakis was on another channel.
O’Connell was on another channel.
Aiava was on another channel.
I needed 8 screens on the wall, to watch all the things!
In the end, I chose the Djokovic match, and flipped to check the scores of Kyrgios and Kokkinakis.
I was surprised that Kyrgios stayed on court, given his stomach strain, but all credit to him, he knew the fans had waited a long time to see him play, so he saw out the match, losing in 3 sets.
Djokovic played a 19yr old American, Basavareddy, who wiped Novak off the court in the first set beating him 6-4. Basavareddy cramped up in the second set and Djokovic came back and won the next three sets. Basavareddy is an amazing player and I think he’ll be around for a long time.
Of the 11 Aussies who played today, nine of them have won through to the second round and one of them is still playing and into a fifth set. It’s been a very successful first round for the Aussies.
In the cricket, Sydney Thunder defeated Perth Scorchers by a lot.
Adoring Husband and I spent most of the morning in The Bay.
He dropped me off at Eli Waters and drove off to run his errands while I browsed the gift section of the newsagent, purchasing a couple of bracelets and a calendar for myself plus a gift for BGWLBH.
He appeared at my side while I was strolling through the supermarket.
It has been a few years since I could casually stroll through the supermarket with my trolley and enjoy the shopping experience. Usually I’m rushing through, grabbing what I need and finding the shortest queue at the checkout, knowing that either AH or BGWLBH was waiting for me.
So I grabbed what was still on my shopping list and we found a checkout. I followed up with a Farm Gate shop grabbing some fruit and veg, then some fresh seafood and fresh bread and then home.
Tonight’s dinner was fresh fish with sweet potato chips and potato chips and garden salad. I had a few chips, a plum and a dairy free ice cream.
I’ve been glued to the tennis ever since.
I’m very tired so I hope this match doesn’t last too much longer.
Nite all.
