The best shot of the tournament all day...from Alcaraz I hander BH cross court....WOWSER

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Good recovery from Alcaraz

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Alcaraz 6-3

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well done Alcaraz 2 sets all going the distance

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

My Aussie Thanasi K who is playing singles for the first time in ages wins in straight sets and his reward he gets to play Novak Djokovic in R2

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well done to Alcaraz I thought he was gone earlier, breaks and will serve for the match 5-4
This match will help his grass court play as well.
It has to be the best match of the day so far, his one handed bhand cross court was the 'shot of the day'

Alcaraz d Struff 46 75 46 76(3) 64....Great match! well done to both players!

Carlos is a problem solver. Fantastic effort to pull this off 6-4 in the 5th set.

Stuff was the WORST first round matchup, experienced grass court veteran, booming serves and hard flat groundies.

30 aces for Carlos.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Okay heading over to CC to watch Murray and another Aussie James Duckworth

Best match of the day soo far

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Sinner serving for the 1st set over Wawrinka 5-4 gets broken Ugh!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Apparently there are 10 matches cancelled today, probably because of the rain earlier .

I'm sorry for him, especially as he's sick, but my thoughts do go to how everyone was pegging him as one of the problems in Rafa's draw. Anyone know who gets his slot?

It's bad luck for him. I think unfortunately he could be the first of possibly many. Covid is spreading fast round London atm. Not sure what the rules are, does a positive covid tests means the players out? Or can they play if they feel ok?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Thank goodness for Rafa he was suppose to play against Marin Cilic on the CC instead Matteo Berrettini filled in
Rafa could have caught COVID again
Sad for Marin, hope he has a speedy recovery
