    Djokovic wins in four sets… if only Hurkacz had taken one of those tie breaks last night…

    6 foot 7 tall.
    Terrific serve 
    He was built for playing on grass.

    Nice chap an all.

    That was a fun last set - he played some absolutely awful shots as he closed in on victory, but got himself over the line

    Well played by Eubanks. Getting into a bit of form as well, won in Mallorca coming into Wimbledon.

    Berrettini takes the first set against Alcaraz.

    Something about Alcaraz face that I find really annoying. 
    Other than that I suppose he's OK

    I really like Alcaraz, really entertaining playing style.

    Hope he can beat Djokovic if that ends up being the final.

    Either that or camped in the queue.
    ….or timing it right to secure ‘returns’ via the mywimbledon app. That’s how/where I got my Centre Court ticket for today.

    Now that Murray's star has waned and Radecanu has imploded I suppose we are set for another prolonged period of Brit mediocrity where getting to the second week is some sort of achievement.

    Norrie got to the semi final only last year.... Also I could be wrong, but isn't he still ranked top 10? Really odd as i don't really watch him much like i have Tim/Murray in the past.

    Why are the games most people want to see,put on last on the show courts.Murray came on about 8pm,Djikovic late on monday,both games carried over,These are the games people want to see,put them on earlier so they can be played to a finish and players dont have to play 3 days on the spin.

    From 1-4 down to winning 7-5, Swiatek forces a third set.

    Svitolina wins and a great chance to reach the final now. What a story.

    Knackered I suspect, hasn't played long games at that level before.

    Great run though, played well.

    Apparently Vondrousova is the first unseeded player to ever reach the Ladies Singles final at Wimbledon
