Is anyone else struggling to muster their usual levels of enthusiasm for British wildcard first round matches? Guess it just shows that a shot at a healthy slug of ranking points which can help them kick-on is something that piques my interest in those who otherwise dont have a realistic shot at making the second week.


 You are not alone as I feel the same.


 Yes, the pre-Wimbledon events were far more intriguing this year for that very reason (it's usually the other way round)

I find it quite relaxing

I don't care if jodie and Ryan, say, barely win a game. They've done great, racked up points, all good.

I want Emma to do well now - that's not a points thing - irrelevant.

I'd quite like Andy and Dan to do so for the same reason

And if we could have a couple of ringers coming through a round or two (Sonay, please), that'd be great

Very good performance by Norrie today .

In terms of other non Brit results , very happy to see Carlos Alcaraz get through in 5 sets . Hunky chops should keep the ladies happy watching and also a few men !

 Thought Cam as the top Brit would get centre court, but Emmas match was on there ( so glad she won!!). Cam didnt even get court 1, but court 2 hmm

poor breaker by Jay which he loses, which is a real shame as he played well in that set

 Court 2 was a disgrace. Kerber over Cam definately wasn't right

 I think you have to select the live coverage of the court number you want to go back and watch from earlier then move the bar back to where you want to watch from.

 That works fine unless they split it into three parts like for centre court - only part three is showing and I cant find parts one and two

 Thanks Coup Droit I was wondering about Ryan's match.

They are putting the roof over Centre Court while Andy takes a break leading 2 sets to 1.
