    I hope the weather holds up tomorrow so Nole can get his match completed.

    I totally agree Hammer. Del Potro isn't what he was and was never great on grass but everything he fired at Ferrer, he returned!

    Murray's far better than Del Potro but I really fear this match tomorrow. I think we're looking at the finalist as both are better than Tsonga.

    The other side of the draw is a joke this year.

    It's because Murray was on court 1, which has no roof

    Aye 11pm. Was a crazy decision to not let then finish after the djokivic game on Monday, but if they had then folk would be complaining saying that they are giving Murray favours

    To be honest i don't see why the LTA don't give Murray massive preferential treatment. It happens at all the other slams for the home players.

    Federer and Djokovic will cruise through in straight sets they've had an easy draw the whole way through

    Yeah, McEnroe made that point the other day, he is the home player so should be given preferential treatment. They prefer federer here though, I have a funny feeling had it been him he would have been allowed to play.

    My predictions for today:
    Federer in straight sets
    Djokovic in straight sets
    Murray in 5 sets
    Tsonga in straight sets
