Good news: Cameron Norrie is through to the 3rd round after a 4 set win over Roman Safiullin.

Bad news: He faces Rafael Nadal in round three.

A couple of the Brit men's doubles teams got beat. Not sure why BBC/Sky/etc prioritise singles action as opposed to how the Brits do generally.

Weird to see some of the losers from this event already playing rounds of the next one (Katie Boulter, for one).

give it a few more years and will be like the good old days before andy murray when be lucky to get past round 1 of any grandslam

remember the days when more likely Elvis would be found alive on the moon than a british winner of wimbledon according to bookies

Jamie Murray and Joe Salisbury, and their respective doubles partners, got through.

Nadal beat Norrie in straight sets, but hopefully it will do his profile some good for once. Norrie, that is Wink

Weird to go from limited attendance to no fans for rest of tournament. Would have been interesting to see how they cleared stadium if Krygios match went pass deadline

Osaka beat Muguruza in a struggle, and Serena needed 3 sets too.

Aussie home hope Ashleigh Barty has been dumped out of the tournament by Czech player Karolina Muchova 1-6 6-3 6-2.

Doddle · 17-02-2021 09:21

With Serena crushing Halep yesterday, and facing Osaka tomorrow, history looking likelier and likelier for her.

Osaka beat Williams 6-3 6-4 and will face Jennifer Brady in the final after the American beat Karolina Muchova 6-4 3-6 6-4.

Well done that Osaka! Should be a great final now.

Still some Brits in the doubles too.
