The Wizard of Wimby 2025 (ui)*

You're in the Commentary Box

Middo11 stands alone after R3 on 40 points.
Mon Desir Hotel revive distant memories by leading the groups race. Its been a long time between drinks for that team. Cheers
The Ump 6 Jul

Ump, I mean those that pick what they think are easy wins only to be proved completely and utterly wrong :) (Madison a case in point)
Julesski 5 Jul

What I think you are describing is the essence of this game in a nutshell. My Wimby Worm doing its usual roller coaster :-D
virgcat 5 Jul

Ump, could we introduce a prize for those who have consistently picked the biggest upsets i.e. and been on the losing side - throw us a bone here...
Julesski 5 Jul

Oh Juleski, Madison Keys was hardly a rank outsider! Just saying... 🤣😂🤣
The Ump 5 Jul

If you pick someone who's previous round match is postponed - do you get their opponent as replacement if your pick loses that match (like with the lucky-losers)? or do you just forfeit the current round. Sorry if that is already explained somewhere. Cheers.
Tom F 4 Jul

If you make a 'non-pick' for the round then , at deadline, you will get a random player nominated. So any complaints then need to be directed to UMPs computer and yourself !
LawnMaster 4 Jul

Depends how the UI engine is working but hopefully you’ll get a lucky dip if your original pick loses the delayed match. Best not bet the bank on it 🤑
The Ump 4 Jul

Good to know! Monfils/Shelton not the go this round then!
Tom F 4 Jul

Hey ump just made top 8 getting nervous tho these seeds are falling by the wayside what happens if ive used the two finalists already
Azatasi 4 Jul

Well that’s silly 🤣🤣
Vixen 4 Jul

It's called getting Snookered Azatasi. And if you do then shout your mates donuts. But its way too early to be stressing about that🍩
The Ump 4 Jul

Whoa / snyone pick Cilic- go the old guys👍🎾😣
chipncharge 4 Jul

Lawnmaster, Stoic and Vinzie lead after R2 with 29 points.
The seeds are still tumbling - just 12 left in the Gentlemen and 15 in the Ladies. And still 2 mens matches to finish tonight.
Leading the Groups are Whitby TC.
The Ump 4 Jul

Could you please update the results a little quicker? My player won 2 days ago and the result still isn't showing. Thanks
JP3 4 Jul

Emma Navarro only won overnight/ 10 hours ago...
emilyfish 4 Jul

Just what Ump was thinking too Emilyfish 😎
The Ump 4 Jul

Agree Nancy worst ever too many ads and commentators like the sound of their own voice. Not paying for more channels, costs enough now.
beaver 4 Jul

Well team Ump, have to say I HATE the ESPN feed Its got more American Sport promotions than Wimbledon matches!! Bring back Sky 50-60 channels!!!
Nancy Jenkins 3 Jul

Take the plunge Nancy! The replays on Disney+ are amazing, better value than sky ever gave.

Max 200G 3 Jul

thanks Ump, your feedback was great. I feel better and encouraged. Long way to go. Might have to pick some seeded ones before they all go!
Tip Toppy 2 Jul

22 joint leaders after round 1 on 15 points. That's a sign of upset heaven.
Doubles starts tonight. Get your guess in for the total number of sets that Kiwis will win. 3 bonus points if you get it right.
The Ump 2 Jul

So much pressure after this start.... absolute nightmare trying to dodge upsetville.
Phil10isAce 2 Jul

Last minute Lucky Loser becomes a big winner for 5 pickers. Victoria Mboko replaced Potapova and then beat a seed.
Beaten seeds flooding the dressing rooms with tears 😭😭😭
The Ump 2 Jul

Crikey. Seeds bloodbath in the ladies!
virgcat 2 Jul

11 of seeded women to fall. And 13 in the men with one result to come!
LawnMaster 2 Jul

Ump Help! I picked Polina KUDERMETOVA in Round 1 by mistake. I meant to pick Veronika KUDERMETOVA. Who knew there was two KUDERMETOVA's.. Neither have played yet. Please be a nice Ump & update for me?
Bob 1 Jul

Oh dear Bob. The Ump feels your pain. If you can get 5 thumbs up from other pickers then your wish might come true 😎
The Ump 1 Jul

It's your lucky day Bob - P has become V. Now don't come crying if P wins after all 🤣
The Ump 1 Jul

Thanks heaps Ump & the thumbs up supporters 😀 Yes when P beats Swiatek overnight you’ll hear the screams!
Mrs Bob 1 Jul

Where’s the thumbs down button?
Black Assasin 4 Jul

7 pickers on 15 pts share the lead on Day 1. Just 13 days to go and already loads of upsets and heaps of nailbiters. Keep calm now 😜
The Ump 1 Jul

What happens when your pick gets replaced by a lucky loser?
Zakg 1 Jul

You're in luck Zakg. You get the Lucky Loser and you did get lucky as Solana Sierra did the business in 2 sets.
The Ump 1 Jul

Late Lucky Loser action.
Solana Sierra replaced Greet Mineen
Cristian Garin replaced Pablo Carrena Busta
And they both won - happy days
The Ump 1 Jul

Wow there are some crazy results out there, round one is going to have some casualties me thinks....
Julesski 1 Jul

Hi all. Disney Plus have a preview show from 9pm. Getting to see players on the practice courts and the public rolling in. All courts are available to watch from as well. This looks like fab coverage. Early days but promising Bring it on for Wimbledon.
cull16 30 Jun

Hey folks, it seems there is no Disney Channel anymore so it seems we have only ESPN2. Pity was hoping Wimbledon would run two channels like the French did. Anybody with any suggestions would be pleased to see them.
Nancy Jenkins 30 Jun

Disney+ offering looks really good, $17 for the month, cancel anytime.
bobco 30 Jun

Thanks Bobco - was really disappointed with the ESPN2 coverage - it left me at about 4.30p.m.(my time not there's) missing a lot of good matches especially the Alcaraz one I'll go look in my collection for Disney+ Cheers Nancy
Nancy Jenkins 1 Jul

jeez tough draw for Cam N
chipncharge 30 Jun

Whole draw is stacked. There are no easy games. It's grass too...
Phil10isAce 30 Jun

And the commentary is so biased. I like Tiafoe but I was even more pleased about Cam’s win after John McEnroe spent the entire 1st set talking up Big Foe. Let’s go Cam!
Shelley Beach 4 Jul

Seems ESPN2 are now having Wimbledon tennis starting Monday night?
bobco 29 Jun

Yes looks like it. Only 1 channel 😩
Vixen 30 Jun

Draws are loaded. Now just that minor worry of who to choose in round 1.
Good picking 😂
The Ump 28 Jun

Tip for First timers - if you're thinking about picking the top seeds in round 1 - don't. Best check the rules and give yourself a good talking to.
The Ump 28 Jun

Norrie for the win is it?
Breezey84 27 Jun

Hey Ump we thought you'd been bought off by an opposition Americas Cup syndicate!!So glad to welcome you back. Warm regards to Mrs Ump too.
Nancy Jenkins 25 Jun

Ump got sacked for challenging the A Cup rules ;)
The Ump 25 Jun

UMP sooo glad you’re back. We miss you
Vixen 25 Jun

Fantastic to be back. Hope I'm not out of practice!
virgcat 25 Jun
