I've got my Order of play neatly typed out and have 7 or 8 matches that I'm most interested in highlighted, including Katie's. Off to bed in half an hour or so, up at 6am, then will just work my way through Eurosport and other matches on the Player. I'm not sure if Katie will be featured on the main ES channels, possibly not, but I might watch that first on the laptop via the Player.

I see there are 61 matches, 32 men as normal, but 'only' 29 women's - the matches involving Muguruza, Ann Li, and Badosa are all on Tuesday instead.

Katie should be on between 0230 and 0300 those staying up depending on how long Mannarino takes to win. Hes 2-0 up and 4-4 in the third. So 0230ish if he wins this set, After 0300 if he wins in 4.

Mannarino through via third set tie break so Katie will be on 0240 or thereabouts.

Katie 2-1 down against serve, shes certainly going for her shots. Kasatkina didnt look too clever on her own service game so hopefully she can exploit that and get her shots in.

All going wrong for Katie. Barely won a point after the first 3 games and loses the first set 6-1. Missing the mark and shanking too much rather than opponent doing much. Regroup for the second set.

Kerber the first upset and interestingly first player to be upset who had to isolate for 2 weeks. Wonder how many more there will be? My guess will be plenty.

Saves 4 match points, 3 from 0-40 and wins a mammoth 30 shot rally I think it was to move to 3-5 down. Come on Katie turn it round, has 30-0 on her opponents serve.....
