Are we gonna see an Englishman win the Wimbledon Mens Singles Championship for the first time since 1936, no, are we gonna see someone win it, apart from Federer, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray, for the first time since 2002, quite possibly, Carlos Alcaraz aged 20, already won the US Open and Queens last week, no 1 world ranked player and number 1 seed.

Well I'll definitely be supporting him if he faces Djok

After going a set down, superb comeback from the defending champion Elena Rybakina to go through.

Brit Ryan Peniston, who lost to Murray today, qualified for Wimbledon by way a wildcard, despite being ranked 267 in the world, obviously Wimbledon like to get as many Brits into the Championships as possible, but I reckon that's pushing it a bit.

Dan the Villa man, just won the 3rd set tie break, could be a late night on centre, on BBC1.

Djokovic could win another 10 Wimbledons, but he would never get a reception like this.

Not unexpectedly the Just Stop Oil twats have hit Wimbledon, disrupting a match on court 18, mind you the weather is also not behaving itself!

Katie Boulter through in 2 sets, looked very impressive in the 2nd set, also had to deal with a 2nd protest in her match.

Brilliant from Liam Broady beating the 4th seed Casper Ruud in 5 sets, winning the final set 6-0 and Katie Boulter also through. Can Andy make it a treble?

Just caught of glimpse of Ivan Lendl in Murray's box. Looking rough.

Andy back in it 1 set all, but he does look cream crackered.

Probably suits Tsitsipas to continue tomorrow, his form certainly dipped in the 3rd set.

Resumption of the Murray match is second match on centre court, after the Alcaraz match.
