3-Dominic Thiem (Austria) beat Joao Sousa (Portugal) 7-5 6-4

Fantastic point! Thiem rolls on. He's really improved his grass game in the last year.

That boy is going to have to slow down. But for right now, he is rather thrilling! We haven't had a new contender backing himself up since probably Nishikori and Raonic. But Thiem got to #7 with a bullet compared to them. I'm trying to withhold expectations.

 

[Carol]

We hope that he can keep that energy for Wimbledon been able to do something good

Bagman lost
Thiem in semi (Kholi pulled out)

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Entertaining match with Goffin and Roger. David knew he had to pull out all the stops, and Roger knew he had to come out focused. Upset averted.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

roger played much better, match v zed in the sf should be exciting.
