    Djokovic is so good. Hard to like sometimes but a stick-on for the title, I'd say.
    Hard to like all the time!! But an incredible tennis player

    I have to disagree.

    Djokovic has a decent case for being the best returner of all time. And as much as I’d like to see big John win the tournament, I really can’t see it.
    Well Isners gone. He served 50% in the first set and then never really got going. He just looked off, as someone said, perhaps an injury. Really he's one dimensional and when his serve is on he can back it up with decent, if limited volley play etc, he's all about the serve.

    Cristian Garin wins in 4 sets v Jenson Brooksby.

    He'll play the winner of De Minaur-Broady and it's looking like it will be De Minaur as he has just gone two sets up.

    Botic Van De Zandschulp wins in 4 sets v Richard Gasquet.

    Always enjoyed watching Gasquet at Wimbledon. Good on grass and one of the best backhands in the game.

    Aye she was. Didn’t expect her to get very far, as I said after the French Open. She will have to get some serious practice on grass courts.

    Potential match of the tournament on now - Tsitsipas v Kyrgios.

    Could be a cracker.

    First set to Tsitsipas 7-6.

    Kyrgios has been rather vocal to say the least.

    Tsitsipas should be defaulted for that.

    Very lucky boy.

    How did Tsisipas get away with firing the ball into the crowd? I do wish Kyrgios would shut up though, he'll end up getting dq'd.

    He is but Kyrgios probably should have been binned before that. He's a poor man's McEnroe when it comes to moaning.

    Kyrgios has taken his comments too far (once again!) but the main point he's making is spot on.
