    Route to the final likely to be:

    Millman -> Kyrgios/Lopez -> Gasquest/Tsonga -> Berdych/Baustita Agut/Del Potro -> Djokovic/Federer

    Kyrgios(15) -> Gasquet(7)/Tsonga(12) -> Berdych(10)/Tomic(19) -> Federer(3)/Nishikori(5)/Raonic(6)/Cilic(9)/Goffin(11)

    These are the top 20 players Murray can face in each round en route to the final.

    Danny Willett is sat on centre court in his green jacket. I think I'd wear it every day for a year if I won it too

    It's often said that to make it as a pro sportsperson, you have to have talent but also hard work and a good mentality.

    Well Kyrgios has the on court mentality of a tantrum throwing 2 year old - he must have some talent to have over come that and still get into the top 20 world rankings.

    Against lesser players he can get away with these massive in game slumps, he shanked a set against Dustin Brown but came back to win in the 5th

    Dunno what golf comp winner gets a brown bomber jacket but the winner of it smells like he must have worn it every day for a year and he's sitting near me on the train.

    Murray is looking Djok-like in his no-bullshit focus.

    Kyrgios is such a waste of talent. It's depressing to see someone throwing it away like he is.

    One game still going on between Berdych and Vesely on Court 3 - at one set each.

    QF line-up:

    I agree. He needs to get himself a proper coach. Someone who will tell him some home truths about his attitude, on-court BS and also someone to look at his posture.

    Murray's side of the tournament looking good. Federer probably the favourite for the top half, but no easy games there.

    Plenty of big serves though.

    It's up to him. Hopefully he'll realise now where he's going wrong, rather than when he's 35 and wasted his career

    Hope so. So far he genuinely p****es me off. Would be nice to see him settle down.

    Or he could save himself a bob or two by simply growing up.

    I would be thoroughly pissed off if I had court 1 tickets today. While court 2 had two mens matches (one of which is still going on) court one had two women's matches and a mens match which became a walkover after six games. Bad planning by the LTA.

    Berdych v. Vesely is suspended due to bad light at 2 sets each.

    They weren't to know Gasquet would pull out injured?

    When play has finished on the other courts hours ago, that must be really annoying for them

    Jamie Murray and Soares were at 13-13 in the 5th set when play was suspended!

    Federer a break up and on brink of winning third - Cilic looking very nervy.
