    not a massive tennis fan really, but WFH today and this is a great game.

    the speed and power they hit every ball is unreal

    Cam playing almost perfectly thus far and Djokovic completely off the boil. He has to grab a big (ideally two sets) lead because Novak has to find his groove at some point.

    Now the real test begins… Djokovic lost sets to Kwon and van Rijthoven then completely took over. He gave Sinner a two set lead and still had him on a string by midway through the fourth.


    I’m just delighted that Norrie passed the first test which was making sure he didn’t get routed.

    It was important for the match that Norrie got the first set, as you know Djokovic will respond.

    personally, I find the doubles (men's, women's and mixed)  to be really boring to watch and same with the wheelchair tennis.
    I was in court 1 for men's doubles yesterday. Totally gripping.

    (Edit: I think it is a very different experience watching live - you get a better sense of the dynamic)

    The juniors singles were pretty good as well. Spain's Martin Landaluce is one to watch.

    Norrie gets out of a break point there. 2-2 in the second set. Djokovic already looking much better than he did in the first set.

    Indeed, and beware the comfort break too.

    Djokovic is 1/7 to win
    Norrie 7/2

    Survives another two break points. 3-3 and still on serve.

    Sloppy game by Norrie there, which probably will cost him the set

    Broken him now. Norrie making too many mistakes. 5-3 lead for Djokovic and serving for the set.

    1 set all.

    Norries's gone.

    Edit. Especially after that smash. Like missing an open goal from 3 yards out.

    yeah unfortunately it would seem Novak has upped his game and will finish him off now - would like to be proved wrong

    have got Djokovic minus 7.5 games so can see he is gonna win 3-1 but not cover my bet !!!

    Big game that for Norrie, another break there and the set and probably the match is gone.

    Double break and 4-1 lead for Djokovic.
