Day 136 - Couch Sports Potato

Not as warm as it was yesterday, and we even had some rain this morning.  Neither though really mattered as today was another day off the course: am pleased to say there are definitely signs of progress with the injured hand though and I remain hopeful that the weekend will see me swinging a club again.

All of which meant that today was an excellent day for doing not a lot!  Instead, started the morning off by watching some of the French Open in Paris. A couple of years ago, Kathryn and I had spent a very pleasant weekend traipsing around the course as guests of sponsor Alstom so it was nice to see the venue again - and remember it is to be the host of the 2018 Ryder Cup.

Then, around lunch time, we switched sports to spend some time watching the tennis from Wimbledon.  The Ward/Vesely match proved to be a lot more exciting than Murray/Haase, but both of these two were nothing like as fun as the Brown/Nadal game.  The tall Jamaican German gave his all and simply blew away the out-of-form Spanish champion.  Great stuff!

And now we get to watch some of the PGA golf as well: good to see three Brits going well and close to the top after the first day.  It would be great if Paul Casey could go one better than last week...
