Weeks 27 & 28 - The Championships, Wimbledon (grass) - main draw

Julia Carrot · All-time great

Im watching court 4 featuring the Mighty Searle.

They are saying that Billy Harris is not playing so well as he was this time last year but that time Billy went out in the first round and let's hope that won't happen this year he's just took the first set 6-3 he's got a good chance here (playing Duan Lajovi).

What happened to Jake there? Last time I saw he was 5-2 up in the breaker.

Jake had his chances to nick the TB. Fonseca's getting on my nerves.

Billy doing everything right so far. Set and a break up.

First disappointment, Jake losing. His grass season started so well, but sadly has petered out with a couple of bad losses. Tired?

Still, doing great overall - rest and then over to the US, I guess?

Billy well on top, just keep it going.

Double faulted and missed a FH so was back on serve. Then JF whacked a couple of aces to get to MP.

Hopefully Jake can regroup after a slightly disappointing grass season.

Wow, Fognini is into a fifth set now with Alcaraz - is the champ on his way out?!

8th seeded Rune is out.

Been an exciting day so far!
