I still have a sneaking suspicion Lee isn't done here. It's *4-3 to Qureshi and 40-30

2nd serve...

DOUBLE FAULT. Deuce. Few signs of nerves here, can Lee find a way through this game?

Return is long, set to Qureshi. Big missed opportunity there. Match probably gone now

Qureishi wanted it more. Sank to the ground after winning!

WAs he playing in the Kia National Doubles League?

Lee played a solid match, but in the end didn't play well enough on the big points. He had break point chances on the second serve quite a bit in the second/third sets, but just couldn't take any of the chances. He was a mini break up in the tie break as well, but couldn't hold it

Still, 20 points is a good return for him, and hopefully he can qualify and make an impact in Ireland next week

I noticed today that Qureshi was only the second player from Pakistan ever to win a main draw match at Wimbledon (the other guy did it twice, about 30 years ago if I remember right), so no wonder Qureshi wanted it!

I saw a bit of this match and that really did seem to be the difference. Lee seemed strangely subdued even quite early in the match, head down a bit, looking like he didn't really expect to win. It's the kind of look you often see from a GB WC, but seemed strange coming from Lee after he had done well enough to qualify.

I saw the first set and I thought that Lee would be in trouble as Qureshi seemed to be reading his serve really well from very early on and swinging from the hip on the returns. Greg Rusedski made a good point when he said that one of the reasons why Lee hasn't got higher is because of the lack of variety on his serve, Lee's main weapon. He gets good pace on it and places it well but it's just 1 pace the whole time...doesn't mix things up with slice or throw in a kicker...also because the serve is just entirely flat there's no spin on it to bring it down so when Lee's rhythm isn't quite there he struggles to get the 1st serve % up
