The umpire said 'game penalty, GSM Edmund, 6-3 6-0'.

If he'd defaulted him he would have said '6-3 5-0 default'

Really not sure what the debate is.

Agreed - it's only being debated because the game penalty came when Kyle needed just one more game to win - if it had come at any other time the match would have continued, so not a default or DQ.

Precisely, it's a win, not a win by default or DW

Plenty of weather delays for Kyle's match. It has been put back two or three times already.

4-0 to Kyle.

Err that's points, they finally started and Kyle held to love in the first game.

Kyle 1-0*

Top seed Raonic in QF tomorrow. If he wins that he is back to GB number 2.

If he beats Raonic, he will have truly earned that Nº2 spot. Very solid performances so far but it gets tough now.

Well done Kyle - nice win!
Tough one next, but you never know!

L16: (8) Kyle Edmund WR 49 defeated Lu Yen-Hsun (TPE) WR 63 by 6-3 3-6 6-2 smile

*****

QF: (1) Milos Raonic (CAN) WR 4 (CH = 3 last November) vs (8) Kyle Edmund WR 49

Oakland2002 · All-time great

Excellent so far!! Raonic on a fast court is going to take some beating, all about reading his serve and being clinical in taking any chances that come your way? Not a match up I am enthused about watching but at a moist Roland Garos, now that would be exciting!

Smudge226 · Strong Club Player

Solid performance, again.

the addict · Tennis legend

Kyle under way, *4-3, fingers crossed, he's looking good so far
