Squeaky bum game, but Konta makes it through to last 16.........

Just won again, through to the last eight now......
That's what I mean.....got my rounds mixed up.

This is a ridiculously good match. Hoping the Fascist, greasy, grunting, bum-picker loses but they've both given it everything.

This has been the best month ever for Luxembourg. I was going to say in sport, but no; just the best month in their history.

Why does it always seem as if Venus Williams is using a racket about as big as this one:

Get the tennis on and get behind Konta, she's in with a shout here.

She pulled out the second set somehow........too many unforced errors though, needs to cut those out.

Brilliant from Konta. They said her average forehand is faster than murray's

Great stuff from Jo Konta.  Showed a lot of guts to pull that set out.

Just flicked over and saw my old mucka Andy fitzpatrick - her hitting partner. I mention him a lot. I'm living my life vicariously through him when I watch tennis.

Fantastic win!  Shit finish - give your tickets to someone else if you can't control your emotions.

The final set he looked almost immobile. He's not going to be winning this tournament again I feel.

Disagree he still has another 2 or 3 years, in which he can win it again
