He just did!

Sadly I think this could well be Lleyton Hewitt's last Wimbledon. He is a great player to watch.

Got to agree with Sally-Anne's assessment – there is zero chance of anyone other than Djokovic, Murray or Federer winning the title imo.

Tsonga can beat anyone on his day but he isn't going to beat those three in successive rounds, which is what we would most likely need to do to win the tournament. And Berdych and Del Potro are dangerous but unlikely to upset Djokovic in the latter stages of a Grand Slam.

New face on the women's side, though – Eugenie Bouchard. Great friend of Laura Robson, won both the singles and doubles at Junior Wimbledon last year and has just knocked out Ana Ivanovic.

OK, back to work… :D

Isner's out (very sad - he only managed one game), so Federer has no serious opponents in his quarter of the draw.

Cilic is out as well, so that leaves Murray's quarter wide open unless he has trouble with Tsonga - very unlikely.

With 4 retirements so far today, there's going to be the usual debate about the pressures of the ATP Tour. Just hope that Andy's back holds out ...

Tsonga is out as well due to injury. Sue barker has just referred to it as Withdrawal Wednesday.

I'm enjoying the Murray match.

Federer match is gripping, secretly would love to see the other chap (can't spell his name) win.
