    Heather Watson's in the zone this morning... won her first set against the 18th seed 6-0 in about 20 minutes.

    It's good, though the other girl is playing utter shit.
    I turn on just in time to see Sevastova win her first game and start her comeback...
    Would not surprise me with Watson! Just been broken...

    Bit up and down in that set... but Watson wins 6-0 6-4.

    Azarenka or 15th seed in the next round for Watson.

    Vesnina makes such an annoying noise. I hope she loses just for that.

    Really tough match in store, but she'll be delighted to get that far and presumably she'll be back n the top 100 too now

    I think they're both equally annoying!

    Fair enough! I prefer the women's game so am used to most the noises but with Vesnina it just doesn't sound natural.

    Yes, quite easy on the eye. And much quieter than Azarenka and Vesnina too!

    The French umpire with the sexy voice too :smile:

    Oh dear... break of serve to Vekic. 5-3 and serving for the first set.

    Saved set points there, broken back. 5-4 and back on serve.

    Hope Wimbledon identify the fogey and politely inform him he's not welcome back anytime soon.

    To be fair it did look like the kid leaned over the old couple to grab that. Bit weird to be fighting over a towel though...

    Just read the kid asked for the towel and Sock threw it over without looking... kinda changes things a bit, especially if the old fella heard him ask for it!

    From being set points down Konta really stepped things up a gear. Encouraging that she's got that level in her.

    Expected her to lose that set about three different times but still won it. Good sign. Hopefully can get a break early here and finish off the match.

    Both Konta and Bedene have won their first sets

    Nice break back for Konta... back to 2-2 now.

    ...and broken by Vekic again. She won't go away.

    One of the best women's matches I've seen in a while.

    Vekic wins second set 6-4.

    The bathroom breaks have been so long, it's like having a half time interval after each set!
