Not a bit.  Both are having to work like trojans.  Paul has worried the Norrie serve a few times.  Could be a 4 or 5 hour job.

Yeah, sure it could. 🙄

He's starting to out-muscle him now but it was pretty intense earlier.  This super fitness he has is going to be a real weapon for him going on.

This constant chopping and changing of channels from the BBC is a pain in the arse. Wearing out my remote control.

Paul never ever went away during that so it's some effort to power through.  More of that will be way too much for Goffin.

Reckon Norrie will have far too much for Goffin. Certainly hope so.

He's going to be hard to beat, that's for sure as he's a bit of a tank and won't lack for fitness.

Andrew Cotter really annoying me. He might be right, I don't know, but pronouncing Alcaraz differently to everyone else, including the umpire. 😁

He ****ed it up

Just wasn’t at his best today I think . However Sinner played exceptional at times . That power in this cross court forehand ! ! He’s ones to watch . I like Alcaraz . He’s got plenty time to improve

Jamie Murray blew mixed doubles with Williams losing in tie break. Served for game but under pressure, he crumbled.

Some other British pair go through.

Hope they dont move this Djoko game onto red button or the like in favour of Clare Balding's "everything is all so lovely" claptrap.

If Djoko has it then some of those Wimbledon legends earlier might need to start worrying. 😁😐

I initially had it down for Sue Barker as she'd been in contact with Martina but since jonesy is hinting at Djoko...

Is there an obligatory testing regime in place at the Championships?

 

No apparently it’s voluntary so those who tested positive didn’t even have to test themselves.  Silly buggers

Think Angela Mortimer was the oldest the day . What I don’t understand is how sue Barker was about today when she was in close contact with Martina

He has to play Nadal in the semi .  . This would be box office gold ! I Nadal mainly a “gentlemen”  on the court , I’ll give him that and Nick is the bad boy.  The contrast will be explosive . He will wind Nadal up something chronic

It would be quite something to see that happen. Nadal would have to pull the finger out for that :jj:

Djokovic just kicked it up a gear.

A great array of exquisite shots from him really . Too many unforced errors from the Dutch man .

The women's draw is wide open now, much as it always seems to be for the women in Grand Slams. I fancy a Jabeur-Halep final though, probably the two best left...which of course means it'll likely be two non-seeds that get to the final!

He is quality. 

 

I thought after the 2nd set he was going to turn the screw a bit but that 3rd set was unreal.

Yes that would be a great final . Both talented all court players really . Jabeur reminds me of Sanchez Viccario in her playing style . Halep has to get passed the in form Badusa tomorrow . Mind don’t rule out Cornet .
