Nooo JPJ that was there for the taking! First serve went a bit why it sounds like an Italian crowd is beyond me and annoying me so turned over to doubles! Really promising play though from Jack!

Real pity that JPJ couldn't hold on and at least sneak that 2nd set TB.

His 50 points from here though will take him up to 246 points, live ranked 219, live GB #8.

We now have 10 live ranked 237 or better, so while it is a 2 week ranking period, we should hold on for 10 in the top 250.

 It's been gutsy, exhilarating stuff, denying Djoko 10 break points in a row, but it couldn't last...

Some spirited resistance from young Arthur.  I thought Wimbledon was maintaining the policy of the ball boys & girls not having to handle the players' towels until I saw Darderi call to one of them to put his in one of the boxes at the start of the third set.  furious  At least it was a clean one!

If Mr Evans is playing on for the enjoyment, days like today may make him reconsider. He was in it for a set, and after that he was toyed with. In the third set it looked like Djokovic was letting Mr Evans get to 40 just to make it interesting for himself.

Shame, after the thrills of day 1 - most Brits have now tumbled out. Even though it was bound to happen with them all being underdogs, I was hoping one could pull off a surprise result - especially Fery.

It's a horror show to be honest, any time he gets an advantage in a rally he hits a mid court short for Cilic to smash for a winner. So passive reminding me of Boulter waiting to lose.
