I did say lighting doesn't strike twice. Marcus can hopefully keep nudging himself up and sneak into Grand Slams on his ranking with a proper partner.

Anyway, I hope you are right re the doubles. 40 British main draw wins in total here we come! Maybe I've gone too low ...


 Although Joe and Rajeev won today, and Henry/Harri and Julian/Robert yet to play, Neal/Michael in action now, this prediction feels less secure 18 hours or so later...maybe a bit too bold to predict the winner of this and the mixed! But will stick with it for now. 

If it comes in mens, suspect it will have to come from one of the 4 above so not too bothered by the lesser likely players losing today but nonetheless, I feel I was bolder than I might have been!

Don't know if I've posted this before, and I realise they are the gross underdogs, but I love the partnership of Searle and Evo

It's not right to lump people together, just because they come from the same part of the country

But Henry does really remind me of a young Dan in many ways - spikey, in your face, very happy in front of a big crowd.....

Love the fact the old dog is teaching the new dog a few tricks of the trade.....

Delighted that Andy is getting his moment on Centre Court. Nobody deserves it more. But he looks a long way short of fitness. I just hope he makes it through without doing himself any more damage.

Evo and Henry look like theyre putting up a good effort

Neal and Michael in a tough final set battle

Andy and Jamie and Liam and Billy in it but bettered. Cant see Andy coming well out of this, fitness wise.

Neal & Michael set for a 3rd set TB ( I assume MTB? ) at best.

*5-6
