    Didn't see draper but I did bet on him to lose as Cilic is a very good player on grass.

    Find it funny with McEnroe talking about the best players are the best players because they are able to let things go and don't let past mistakes or decisions haunt them. How the hell was he able to win anything?! 

    He really is waxing lyrical about this yank Fritz. He plays well and could be an outside bet for the championship.

    Maybe he felt  that he could have achieved more if he hadn’t dwelled on things like he did?

    Possibly but I'm not sure how self aware he is. He does really rate Taylor Fritz though.

    He can't pronounce Djokovic - not you cannot be serious, but joking, as in Jokervic

    Norrie also through to round 4.

    Both he and Kartal will have unseeded opponents so a great chance for them both to find themselves in a Wimbledon quarter final.

    One for those that know... 

    Do women players have pockets inside their skirts or do they put the spare ball in their knickers? Or is it just an individual thing, as in some do have pockets some don't?

    Yeah, is it me or has her body language looked off since the start?

    Emma is playing well and looking confident and sharp

    Sabalenka is doing my head in with all the shouting and groaning!

    Commentator said she does it to intimidate her opponent. However all she is doing is annoying her opponent and everyone else watching her.

    Basically like cycling shorts and tuck the ball in

    Does the grunting stop the opponent hearing the sound of the racquet on the ball?

    Raducanu needs to continue how she started not get into a slugging match she won’t win

    Yes it can do, Monica Seles used to get lots of opponents complaining of this

    Wow that was hard. Rad just managed it. 7 set points saved. 

    Think the crowd might be a bit biased.

    Incredible mental toughness to save seven set points there and prevent a 4-2 -> 4-6 swing.
