Couldn't see another thread.

Raining so far so no play on outside courts, Djokovic v Britain's Jack Draper on Centre at the moment, Draper with an early break.

50% crowds, no queue, no exhibition Seniors stuff etc.

    Anyone get tickets this year?  Was tempted to try but as we had tickets last year that are guaranteed for next year decided to wait for that.

    Couple of things to really like about Draper’s game. No surprise that Djokovic has run away with the second set though.

    Certainly has a bit of fight about him, amount of break points he's saved.

    Will be good experience for him too.

    Feels a bit weird this being interviewed on court, normally a final day thing not first round.

    I tried entering the online ballot, but was too slow!

    I reckon there may be some resales etc released as it goes on but only if you manage to be online at the exact right time!

    Tsitsipas is 2 sets down - shows how tough the 2 week turnaround from the French Open is.

    Got 2 tickets for Court 2 for this Thursday.

    Looks like Tsitsipas is getting knocked out in the first round. Such a frustrating player.

    Decent weather. And a non Euro 2020 day too!

    I planned it because of no Euro action and hopefully I’ll get lucky with the weather.

    His body just cant cope with top tier tennis anymore. When Nadal was injured, he came back like a machine. Murray is just not the same player anymore.

    Seven straight games...

    His serving has gone to pieces ...

    Lost seven games in a row to lose the set from 5-0 up, including four breaks of serve. Not looking great.
