Draw blown completely wide open as Halep and Madison Keys both lose. Konta is probably second favourite now.

 

[Trips]

Konta loses the first set. Serving for the second set at 5-4 she gets broken to be levelled at 5-5, double fault at 30-40 confirming the break

 

[Nando]

Konta is throwing this away quite impressively.

 

[Trips]

Second set tie-break

 

[Nando]

Poor. Should have won that comfortably.

Gwan Muzza. Incredible stuff from Feliciano too.

Osaka, Zverev and Tsitsipas all out on day one at Wimbledon.

 

[The Bear]

I saw the 2nd set of Osaka and she was absolutely awful. 38 unforced errors in the match.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Zverev didn't surprise me particularly. He's such a flake.

The 15 year old Gauff is giving William's some game

The 15 year old Gauff is giving William's some game

Saw her in qualifying last week. Incredible talent.

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

She's unbelievable, so focused and playing an amazing game

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Bloody amazing!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Done it and richly deserved.

Not sure it's *that* big a shock though, Venus is 39 now and barely ranked in the top 50.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Venus is massively on the decline. Still a pretty damn special win for a 15-year-old though!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Dimitrov is going to get knocked out here too surely. Two sets all and 5-1 down in the decider.

Edit: Yep, gone

 

[Deleted Cyber]

You're all safe on this thread. Tennis makes my eyes bleed.

 

[Tredman]

I agree with Cyber.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

I agree with Cyber.

:worshippy:

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Think the BBC hyperbolic commentary got the better of me!

Still I was impressed that a 15 year old girl ko'd a legend of the sport
