Apr 11, 2007 · John was also very good at studying Martina, Tracy, Hana, Andrea, etc. and helping Chris and Dennis Ralston with strategy. I think Chris gives John a lot of credit for her improvement in 1984 and 1985. So he was a very important compenent to her life - personally and professionally.

Jan 15, 2025 · John Lloyd at the 2008 Australian Open in the Hewitt vs. Baghdatis match on BBC commentary was hilarious, particularly when Baghdatis started playing well in the fourth set from 1-5 down and eventually won the set 7-6, smiling as he did so and almost trolling. Lloyd clearly wanted to go to bed.

Jun 19, 2024 · On the other side of the spectrum, one of my favourite commentators is John Lloyd because of his funny catchphrases and often quite decent analysis of points and shots.

Jun 17, 2013 · It was reported today that John Lloyd, Andrew Castle's co-commentator during the grasscourt season, relayed Castle's remarks to David Lloyd and as a result the grey fox of British punditry has been sued. And in no time at all, Castle has paid David Lloyd compensation/legal costs for daring to impugn Loyd's reputation on live TV.

Oct 26, 2024 · While Lendl broke back immediately in the second set, Connors did get some momentum back soon after that when a centre lineswoman reversed a call on a Connors serve in Connors' favour. John Lloyd was then interviewed in the crowd by CBS and he was predicting Connors to win the match.

Jan 21, 2025 · I’ve played through significant injuries in other sports. I play tennis casually I was better at basketball and baseball. I played basketball on a partially torn calf once. These things are possible especially with how ridiculous the pain mitigating drugs are now. If I had access to them in D3 basketball you bet Novak does too.
