    Easy for the big fella.

    Tough match next round though vs Ferrer or Del Potro. Ferrer currently 2 sets up.

    I think this is as far as Andy gets unfortunately. Ferrer's on some run of form this season and looked immaculate against Del Potro today.

    I still expect Andy to beat Ferrer. Won't be easy but Andy's better suited at playing him on Grass. If he can get through then he's got a good shout at making the final. Specially if Fish/Tsonga gets rained off today.

    Tsonga wraps up the game, 3-1. Would expect him to make it to the semi's now, if Andy can beat Ferrer he has a great chance at reaching the final, probably the best he'll ever have

    I'm surprised that Ferrer beat Del Potro so easily, really surprised actually. I think Andy Murray will have too much for Ferrer on a grass court though.

    Enjoying watching the Angelique Kerber v Sabine Lisicki match. They're both good players and both very easy on the eye. :52:

    Ferrer has been playing better than Murray through this championships, he will struggle against him! There was a period in the Roddick match he was hitting winners from everywhere.

    I hope I'm wrong right enough but if he manages to beat him, it won't be easy at all.

    No it won't be easy. I do expect Andy Murray to prevail though. In 4 sets I reckon.

    I hope Tamira Paszek can win this tie break. She's fought really hard in this set. Breaking Azarenka twice when she was serving for the match takes some doing.

    Boo. :54:

    The Radwanska v Kirilenko match is about to be played to a finish on the red button. It is 4-4 in the deciding set.

    Fancy Murray tomorrow. Comparisons are unfairly been made towards the French Open victory for Ferrer. Murray is pretty poor on Clay whereas it's most likely Ferrer's best. No one had expected Murray to beat him.

    I reckon Murray will come through in 5. Ferrer will come out early and win the first. Murray will respond 2-1. Ferrer will hit back and Murray winning the decider. Wouldn't be amazed to see something like this : 6:3 4:6 2:6 7:5 4:6
