Some interesting combos there, not only Jamie and Vika but Dom and Sammy. Nice too to see the younger ones (Jay, Harriet, KB, KD) give it a go as well. And of course, what is becoming a Wimbledon tradition, Henri and Heather.

I do hope Heather is less stroppy on court with Henri.

It may be "only" the mixed, but young Jay & Harriet had a good win against vastly more experienced opponents:

L48:  (WC) Jay Clarke & Harriet Dart CR 393 (249+154) defeated Robert Lindstedt & Yang Zhaoxuan (SWE/CHN) CR 78 (56+22) by 4-6 6-1 6-4 

Good support for them round the court, too.  They played some nice stuff. 

*****

L32:  (WC) Jay Clarke & Harriet Dart CR 393 (249+154) vs (13) Max Mirnyi & Kveta Peschke (BLR/CZE) CR 56 (35+21) (& a combined age of 83!!!)

Over the moon for them, particularly for Jay after this morning's disappointment.

Throughly enjoyed the game on the red button. They looked like they were having a great time, both played some superb tennis and Jay was everywhere, lovely hands and touch around the net.

My favourite moment was when Harriet managed to get an ace against Lindstedt and jokily raised her arms in the air as if shed won the Olympics. Great for Jay. Three matches, thirteen sets of tennis and one victory but so close to being three!

Lovely that Jay got something out of today to show for all the effort....

Nice that Naomi got a win too, after losing out in the singles and women's dubs.

Mixed was so entertaining! And a lot of British wins makes it even better!
