Wimbledon Mens Final

Post by djprescott »

Can anyone recommend a good place in CVO to watch the mens singles final this Sunday?

My guess would be, if Andy Murray makes the final (and I believe he will this year), then most bars in CVO will advertise the fact that they are showing the final. Just wish I was there to watch it in a bar in CVO. COME ON ANDY !! :P

Thanks for the replies, never thought about the Tennis Club. Do you have to be a member to go in there?

As Clive James said.............“A traditional fixture at Wimbledon is the way the BBC TV commentary box fills up with British players eliminated in the early rounds.”

I don't believe they worry too much so long as you buy something.

I don't think you'll find many people watching it at the tennis club, & the TV is outside so the resolution isn't all that; lots of bars will be showing it, I'd recommend going to one in town

He made the semi finals at Wimbledon and I suspect he would thrash you with his shoe laces tied together.

I do wish Murray all the luck in the world this afternoon in the mens final.
Even if he can wear down Federer, he has his suspect temperament, and a massive weight of public expectation on his shoulders!

Went to Rascals to watch the final. Shame about the result but it was a really relaxing setting and we had some very good food. We went back on 2 further occasions in the evening.
