Azarenka was certainly squealing loudly the other day when she slipped and nearly did the splits.

Now withdrawn with that injury.

 

[Jolemai]

Decent game on court three between Brown and Hewitt.

 

[Lord Knows]

Wimbledon players look like they need a small stud

Are you offering your services Lord K?

 

[Sniffer]

Bah, I'm 6ft 2.

Murray has taken his first set with relative ease.
Laura Robson is currently playing doubles.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Tsonga in some trouble - seems to have a knee problem and is now 2 sets to 1 down against Gulbis.

Yep - he's retired. So that's Murray's probable quarter final opponent gone.

They're dropping like flies this year. Quite a few retirements/dropouts. Blaming the surface not getting enough sun so the ground is not hard enough

 

[lemonjelly]

In fairness, only azarenka has blamed the surface.

Laura Robson won her doubles match.

Sharapova's whining about it now (she's losing), the sour faced bint.

 

[lemonjelly]

Sharapova is one set down.
Wonder if del will be able to cope if she's knocked out first round?

 

[lemonjelly]

She's also one break down!

 

[darlowolf64]

She's also one break down!

She's also a screeching bitch who needs to put a sock in it! Gets right on my nerves, her screaming every shot. Should be banned.(Making noises to put your opponent off)
Murray 2 sets to 0 now

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Sharapova out in straight sets. Good, saves the wear and tear on the mute button on my remote.

 

[darlowolf64]

Murray through in straight sets after just over two hours. 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 Never looked troubled

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

federer drops a set. must be the shoes...

 

[Langers]

Fed broken in the 3rd. Nowhere near his best today.

Stakhovsky serving for the set.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

holy shit - federer a break down in the third set. This is bonkers. If this bloke pulls off the upset then the draw is totally open for Murray to the final.

 

[darlowolf64]

Federer down 2 sets to 1... Wow

 

[Langers]

Stakhovsky wins the 3rd!!
