I'm not viewing the match, but why make any such supposition? He's jumped up a step in class to a top-10 player who has won a major. There's little comparison between the very top and the rest; that's why they're at the very top.

PS: Puts Mr Bogdanovic's Wimbledon record -- not least his 4-6, 6-7(3), 4-6 against Nadal in 2006 -- into perspective.

Dan not playing badly, I think he's just trying a bit too hard. He's (understandably) trying to hit too many lines thinking it's the only way he'll win points. But he has fashioned some chances for himself.

I AM watching the match and there's no sign of that at all.

Dan was a little unlucky to get broken in his first service game (went for two clean winners that missed by an inch or two) and then looked a little rattled and rushed things a bit. Still playing well, in places, but Juan-Pablo is playing better - what can you say ?

i think the gulf in experience is evident by miles. Not so much class.

The weight and trajectory of Del Potro's ball is simply something that Dan has barely ever experienced. You can see him 'learning'.

Del Potro looks quite casual I'd say that's a sign of class when you make it look easy.

Sounds like a better 2nd set but not to be. No disgrace in that though and Evo has had great (and dare I say breakthrough) week.

PS I'll have a tenner on DelPo winning Queens.
