@radio_RG The Poirot linesperson was included in the walkout, @marcus_buckland

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG right under the Coupe de Mousquetaires is a linesperson who resembles Gregor Dmitrov with glasses. 🤓

@radio_RG the cartoon below is for Enrique. This was my Facebook cover photo during my exam prep.

@radio_RG Another great TV show that displays Paris in a wonderful light is Call My Agent (Dix Pour Cent, in French).

I have taken one of those cheap flights via Iceland @scambers73. Not recommended but it got me to the US Open.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@marcus_buckland, Correction: deuce side. No sight of Poirot…yet. @radio_RG

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG @marcus_buckland, the Giroud/Leveen linesman has made it to the men’s final! Opposite the Presidential Tribune on the ad side.

Will miss you team!

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG even for those who used to live in Paris, and hold the city fondly in their hearts, Emily in Paris is brilliant. And in relation to your other listener, they have a point about how Paree is meant to be pronounced and why the name Emily was chosen (to rhyme).

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG, so you’ve heard how hard it is for your listeners to bounce back after the enthralling fortnight with all of you, but what are your plans for bouncing back post-RG? We know that Lady E will run for the Eurostar…to be at Queens tomorrow.

Forza for Cobolli in four!

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG Sophie, do you think that the wind gusts have decreased? It seems like Andreeva has cranked up the speed on her shots and they are more effective. Chwalinska is still able to rebound off a hard shot but not hitting winners.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG I’m loving the variation that we’re seeing in the early games of this ladies final. Wonderful and giggle-inducing commentary from the ladies on the best Grand Slam radio team! 🧡💚🧡💚

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG, ahhhh ladies, thank you for making me laugh out loud in response to your exchange about FAA’s dog being interviewed in Turin.

As much as you try, @gigi_salmon, I don’t think Eleanor is going to let it drop the puns (I encourage her not to).

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG oh my goodness, listening to Marcus trying to get Sophie to guess Dennis Shapovalov was painful (and I adore you both). I can just imagine Stephan doing gesturing to an invisible hat over Marcus’ shoulder to get her to think of “chapeau”.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG until @SabalenkaA’s match and listening to your broadcast of the first ladies’ singles quarterfinals, I actually thought Kalinskaya would head straight to a rage room given how she was yelling at her coach.

Having seen a clip of Sabalenka’s presser, this seems spot on:

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG @gigi_salmon your number 1 fan is listening. ☺️

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG Funny enough, someone made the same comment about me, Chris: they heard me playing tennis before they saw me. If you sync up Sabalenka with Azarenka and Serena’s grunts, you almost can’t tell who is who.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG Spotted: Mensik rubbing his lower back/upper backside…don’t be surprised if he calls a physio during an upcoming changeover for a little massage.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG, Marcus, did you see that ball boy who just fed Fonseca a ball? Definitely NOT diminutive!

However, there is a line judge standing behind Mensik on the ad side…potentially lacking in vertical stature.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG, regarding the book titles, didn’t Martina Navratilova write a series of tennis-themed murder mysteries? I’ve looked for them in the past but to no avail.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG Thanks for interpreting my compliment, Antoine. Yes, I was referring to your singing voice. Marcus, your speaking voice is rich, captivating, and descriptive.

What’s with all the tennis docs? I just spotted a trailer for a new Simona Halep documentary.

[Astrid Mannheim @AsGiMa]

@radio_RG Marcus, I’m listening... Antoine, you have a really nice voice! Does Sophie know? I foresee an on-court doubles partnership AND a duet in the recording studio in your futures.
