Very pleased for Richard. Really well done.

But I can't help it, I feel sorry for the poor Greek guy, three (amended!) MP, in front of his home crowd . . . .

I know, feeble, isn't it?

But I bet that match will come to haunt him, poor bloke - wonder if he bottled it or if Richard really upped the ante (or a bit of both, which I suppose is the most likely).

Also wonder if the Greeks are getting a bit miffed at the Brits taking all their final spots (now THAT doesn't upset me . . . )

Off-to-watch-bambi . . .

Jamie now trails *0-2 in the second. He has lost 6 straight games and hasn't held serve since the opening game of the match.

Jamie is making a fight of it but seemingly can't get the break back 4-5*

In the Doubles Gill and Strachan have taken the first set 6-4
