Was able to watch properly kartal at lunch. she looked very good against a seeded player. Got Fery on in the background against what I know of him a decent player in Popyrin. Fery close to breaking the Aussies serve but he's just hanging on.
Now that is a pleasant surprise! Cam's been in rotten form and for the 2nd set against RBA he was relentlessly hitting the ball straight back up the middle until RBA found a passing shot. He can thank me for the meeting that took me away from his match and shifted his fortunes. 😁
But fognini has just blown it by losing his serve.
Fognini has had 16 break points and only converted 3 of them. He could easily be a set up rather than a set down if only he had played the big points better.
Played for Kent U16, got a scholarship to David Lloyd Academy, stopped playing when I discovered music. Had to deal with the LTA at times who were elitist gatekeepers as I wasn’t from a wealthy background (understand they’re better now)
7 Brits through to the 2nd round. Record breaking temperatures for the opening day at Wimbledon and record breaking day for Brits at Wimbledon in the open era.
Boulter beats no 9 seed Badosa - battling performance.
But an awful game. I used to love Wimbledon, been many times. I really think women’s tennis is going backwards. This Fritz/Perricard game is dull too, just a case of how hard can I serve.

Earlier Hannah Klugman was beaten in straight sets by Leylah Fernandez.
Harriet Dart serving for the first set against Dalma Galfi.
Still Raducanu v Xu, Boulter v Badosa and Krueger v Stojsavljevic to come.
I have no rational reason for disliking Alcaraz but I do.
