02 July 2015 03:46

Poor Robin Haase. Not only did he manage just six games in a comprehensive loss to Andy Murray at Wimbledon, but he was two sets down before half of the country had realised he wasn’t Tommy Haas.

On the plus side though, we learned a lot more about him than we knew beforehand. Things like these…

1. He loves British sitcoms

He certainly performed like one today.

2. His name is ripe for punning

If there’s a pun on his name that Haasen’t been made yet, we can’t think what it might be.

3. He has a celebrity lookalike

He plays about as well as him too…

4. He has the best interests of British office workers at heart

Very thoughtful – thanks Robin!

5. He definitely, definitely isn’t Tommy Haas

Easy mistake to make…

6. He’s richer than we are

That’ll be some comfort to him when he ponders his 6-1 6-1 6-4 defeat.

7. He’s not very good

Sorry Robin – the British public has spoken. Thanks for coming. See you next year.
