    What time is the Raducana and Norrie matches on tomorrow? BST. 
    Don't think they've been scheduled yet. They don't normally confirm the schedule and likely timings til much later the day before.

    Not sure which midnights the 2 men's matches are - think Fearnley's might be midnight Thurs going into Fri and Norrie's midnight Friday going into Saturday - best anyone wanting to watch double check as I'm not sure

    Fearnley loses the first set to Zverev.

    Norrie v Djokovic is scheduled for 24hrs from now it seems.

    Fearnley definitely needs to work on his serve - lots of double faults. Seems to suffer badly from nerves...

    agreed. I caught the last few games on the repeat earlier - far too little too late, but he had fun in the last set when took it back to 4 - from 1 - 4 down and saved several match points.

    He's only been on tour and out of college 15 months and has had an impressive rise up the rankings  - but he's competing with the big boys now

    Rybakina about to serve for it at 6-1 5-2.

    Emma never really been in this unfortunately.

    Unfortunately so. Even her serve has gone AWOL - guess that is pressure, as it has been so good the past 2 matches

    But Rybakina is ranked considerably higher - for a reason. But after her close matches against Sabalenka, I'd hoped she would make more of a fight of it

    Very disappointing.

    Rybakina was so cool and dismissive and never gave Raducanu a sniff. I could see her winning the title as I don't think she'll be over concerned about facing Sabalenka, if and when that happens, given she beat her in straight sets just two weeks ago.

    I think she is definitely a contender. She's a top 4 player on her day.

    why? Probably true of most in the top 30/top 40 and above. Many of them have never beaten a top 10 player

    Pleased for Anisimova, beating Swiatek has to exorcise the demon of losing 6-0, 6-0 to her in the Wimbledon final, at least a bit.

    Sabalenka beats Pegula in three sets. Osaka leads Anisimova by a set.


    In the men’s doubles, Salisbury / Skupski are into the final.

    Anisimova won in 3 - hope she wins the final but think Sabalenka will.

    For the third grand slam in a row, on three different surfaces, we have a Sinner v Alcaraz final in the men’s draw. The winner will be the new world no. 1.

    Alcaraz beat Djokovic in three sets. Sinner beat Auger-Aliassime in four sets.

    Alcaraz deservedly wins 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4

    Appreciate Sinner wasn't at the same standard as he was in the Wimbledon final, but Alcaraz is such a talent, these two could break so many records.

    I'd like a third player to emerge to challenge them though - those two reaching every final.could make it samey!

    Six grand slams for Alcaraz at age 22 - pretty amazing.
