Faded a bit, but decent effort against the top seed (who made a few errors).

That was a different level of tennis those last 5 games. When Sabs is on it she is unstoppable.

Great from Raders though, starting to play better and hopefully stays injury free

She was great in patches. Fell apart at the end.
How is balding the presenter on this.

I've always thought Gigi Salmon was a great main presenter on skys tennis, Laura Robson is great too. Those two were great with Tim Henman. Naomi Broady on comms too is very good.

Most of them are getting on a bit now at Wimbledon, be around for years it seems.

Raducanu just needs to string a few good tournaments together and get up into the top 20ish so she can avoid top players in the first couple of rounds. When you look at who she's been losing to in the big tournaments it's mostly the big names.

Sabalenka number one for a reason. Upped a gear when she needed to.

Nice to see Raducanu heading in the right direction though.

I'm so stupid sometimes.....

I've literally been waiting and watching the tennis all day for Kartal...
And I've only just remembered that it was yesterday she won, and it'll be tomorrow when she plays again! Lol

Yeah there's not much by way of interesting matches today. Going to be a glut of straight setters on Centre.

Shelton v Fucsovics might be ok.

There really isn't!

I think we were spoiled with so many entries even though all but 2 have now gone.

I will look forward to Novak but only in the hope that he loses.

 

[Alice In Wonderland]

Wow! What a couple of games for kecmanovic!

I really want a come back for him.

 

[manic111]

Switched over and put Shelton on. He's looking really, really good.

 

[Alice In Wonderland]

I'm so excited to see Kartal play today and really really hope she manages to fight her way through.

 

[Alice In Wonderland]

Kartal seems to be doing okay for now!

Broken the other serve already but her opponents is seriously working her hard.

 

[Alice In Wonderland]

It's pretty stressful watching this! Lol!

That decision was nuts and Pavlyuchenkova should not have lost that game. :/

 

[adidan]

Saw this was 4-4 and deuce, flicked over, had my late lunch, saw the Lando interview, flicked back and it's now just gone 5-4.

Hellova long game that one eh?

What's she complaining about? E: Dodgy call?

I agree. I hate that they now rely on a stupid computer.

 

[Alice In Wonderland]

I wish Norrie wasn't playing at the same time

Ball was like half a foot out, so should have won the game. System didn’t call it, umpire said replay point.

Ended up losing the game.

Looks like it actually did her a favour TBH
