Anyone see on BBC that Chris Eaton has found a new hitting partner in.........Roger Federer! Unbelievable really to think of this less than a month ago that Eaton would be warming up with the world number 1. Just shows his meteoric rise to public knowledge. This can only be a good thing for Chris
Was planning to start a new thread anyway, but FD on the men's doubles thread has saved me a lot of typing! Just noticed that Auckland/Baltacha have a potential mixed doubles match tomorrow so the draw must be out for that.... and so it is [slightly edited] Bloomers/Borwell vs. Calleri/Kanepi Auckla...
This is almost certainly for a place in the Wimbledon final, neither of these players will lose to Schuettler or Clement.
Will this put extra pressure on Murray or will it inspire him to victory?
Okay, I haven't posted in this forum in a long while, and this may not be the best place to ask about this, but anyway, here goes... In a few minutes time it'll be the day of my 21st birthday, I was going to spend time with my family, but instead, think I may fly down to London instead. I've done a little rese...
The Wardinator was the 2nd alternate for the main draw on the last update and everyone in qualifying is ranked below him, so I reckon both SE places got freed up and he scraped a DA. QR1: Antoni Gomez UNR v Marco Garcia-Koch (ESP) UNR QR1: Charlie Goode UNR v Thomas Dehaen (BEL) UNR QR1: Gary Chamberlain...
Nice long piece on Watters. The main theme is sort of outdated (I only found it yesterday) but there's a lot of extra info in it that most of us will enjoy.
Seeing him lose today makes me wonder what Andy's best win was. What I mean by best win is what was the best player (playing reasonably well) that he's beaten? I know he's beaten a misfiring Federer and a below par Davydenko twice? each. But which top 10 or top 20 player has he beaten when his opponent hasn...

British No1 Keothavong delighted to earn a crack at the champion
Anne Keothavong is the only British woman in the main draw ranked high enough to get into the tournament as of right and, though that seemed to be as much a burden as a source of confidence yesterday, she still managed to join her...
For the first time for God knows how long (though I've no doubt someone will put me wise, sooner or later! ), we have a Briton seeded for the men's doubles in SW 19: take a bow, Jamie Murray & Max Mirnyi (surprise, surprise!), who enter the lists at N° 14. Fingers firmly crossed for them &...
See http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/7479882.stm It starts: "Lawn Tennis Association chief executive Roger Draper has admitted that British tennis is not likely to have five players in the top 100 until 2010. Two years ago, LTA president Stuart Smith said Britain should have fiv...
Here are just a few pics and comments from the four main matches I saw on Wednesday before it got too dark to think about taking any more photos, since if I don't do anything with them now, I probably never will. I still have a blog from day 2 at Queen's to do too, but that'll have to wait until we have a lean per...
