Raonic out in R64, no other big surprises so far besides Muguruza keeping her crappy form after winning the FO.

Nole only took 5 1/2 sets to reach the R16. 2nd round his opponent retired and now Youzhny retired in the first set.

[Vieira151]

Yep. Hopefully he'll be slightly out of focus and Edmund can take advantage.

Odd match between Nadal and Pouille: 1-6, 6-2

Most dramatic match yet. Pouille wins 7-6 in the final set on his 4th MP.

Against Monfils now.

[Vieira151]

Pouille looked really, really fatigued. A shame. One for the future!


Murray looked completely imperious against Dimitrov. He had a Djokovic-esque aura to him on the night. Everything came back, and 20 shots in the rally, he'd just open up and blast a winner. It was quite scary. Wonder if he'll play more like that tomorrow or more like he did against Lorenzi...

Stan the Man does it again!

He never got past QF at Wimby though. But being 3/3 in Slam finals against absolute top players is a great achievement. That victory also marked his 11th consecutive win in a final. Apparently there is still some room for a one-handed Swiss at the top

Nice run by Kerber as well, US Open Champ and new No. 1

Yeah, I don't think his style of movement really works so well on the grass. Granted, with the exception of this year, he has been fairly consistent there the last few years.
