I was just going to say the same too, BBC need to wake up and get him on the red button...

Hope Paul has reached this late point in the day well ready for action.

C'mon !

Looks like some early nerves there and a mis-firing first serve. Hope he settles down now and gets into the match.

No nerves, this is just what happens when you give a 10k futures level player a Grand Slam wild card.

We'll see. Paul has already shown he can compete at Challenger level. Sousa is also playing well. Yes, this is a huge step up again from Challenger level, but by this time next year Jubb won't look out of place at all here.

I remember many moons ago, we played Swiss in the DC, and Roger played Mackin, and it was 6-0, 6-0, 6-1 (I think????)

Reminds me of that.

2-2 in the 2nd. That puts Mackin in the shade then.
