Superb comeback Djokovic

Have been critical of him before, but happy to give credit where it's due. He was lucky and the other bloke bottled it.

Brilliant from Norrie.  He'll need the couple of days rest he's going to get now before facing Djoker.

Fantastic game between Nadal and Fritz earlier on. Went virtually to the wire: 5th 10 point tie-break!

Have to say I've warmed to Nadal.

Mainly because he isn't Djokovic.

Nadal's injuries are puzzling though. You hear him talk about them afterwards and it's like he was at death's door, but it's coincidental that his physio breaks often come when he's doing badly and his opponent has momentum. Then he comes out and looks absolutely fine.

He and Djokovic are still miles above anyone else though. Yesterday Nadal just needed to keep getting the ball back and just wait for Fritz to make the inevitable mistake. Nadal and Djokovic just do not make those mistakes.

Kyrgios vs Nadal will be fun. Isn't Kyrgios the kne that likes to disrupt Nadal's OCD rituals? Who was the player that kicked over Nadal's drinks bottles that time?

Ons Jabeur the first African woman to reach a Wimbledon final, in the Open era.

I was hoping for Maria to make the final, but well done to Jabeur.

To be fair, she abandoned Russia before it became fashionable to do so :-)

Sky saying they think Nadal is going to pull out - Wimbledon final with Kyrigos will be hilarious, they’ll be spilling Pimms all over the place when he is moaning everytime he sits down :-)
