I wonder if Jack will make it to Miami? It has still been an excellent week for him.

A point re. Cam: I think he flies under the radar in terms of media coverage, at least in the UK.

Do hope Jack's injury doesn't keep him out for too long. It's exciting to see what he's capable of!
Good luck to Cam in his next match.
Being a British tennis fan isn't always easy, but it's been a good week for us!

Definitely. I doubt that he's too bothered though.

Sad, but perhaps not altogether surprising given the amount of strapping on his leg when he played Andy. Onwards and upwards.

It was an ab strain, he had tape on it but it was too bad to continue.

Abs notoriously take a while to heal as I understand it (because it's impossible not to use them I guess)

Tiafoe Vrs Norrie. (QF). Rain stops play after just one game (won by Cam).

Who said it never rains in Southern California?

Cam going again but it could be going better. Broken at *3-3.

Now *3-5

the addict · Tennis legend

Must have been brief, because Tiafoe is about toserve for the first set at 5-4

Neil Gee · Club Coach

Cam needs a raise in level for the second set, I think he will, at least I will be surprised if he doesn't find something.

RainDelay · Pro player

Down a set and a break now 2-3*

stevemcqueen · Futures qualifying

Cam's level is quite weak compared with previous rounds. I don't think he will turn it around, it is just not his day.

Ive never seen Cam play so badly, Im shocked

Neil Gee · Club Coach

Cam struggling today, he's playing some good points but he can't seem to string a few them together - commentary suggesting he might be unwell while FT's first serve is slightly off but he's showing good variation and looks the more competitive out there.

If Cam is going to find another gear he needs to do it now. TF serving for the match 5-2.
