Just Aidan and Julian to finish the opening rounds matches, Aidan seems in control now.

Presumably Charlie and Aidan/Julian will go back on again later - todays results mean we will have a player in each of the FQR matches

Decent effort by Harry W - although Copil has really not been on good form recently - but nice play by Harry - he wasn't far off.....

Giles Hussey put up a good fight - was a break up in the second - had a chance to serve it out - but couldn't and the tie-break was a bit one-way..... :(

But good effort

Charlie Broom also was 5-2 up, had a SP, got pegged back to a TB, I thought he'd blown it, was 2-5 down in the TB, and then came back, with Squire serving a really bad DF at 5-5 and Charlie then banging down an ace to take us into a third

Felix is also playing some very nice grass tennis against the pesky Otto

Is on the losing side, but only just....

This French guy Dan is playing, Couacard, looks a decent player, I like his game. He is 27 though so clearly not been able to break through for whatever reason

Without wishing to give Evo delusions of grandeur, that match struck me as a classic Federer sort of match - with it all looking rather close, not much in it, and then the better player just putting his foot down, at the key moment, so actually it wasn't close at all

Well done, Dan

Well done, Dan

 Do you know , CD, I actually agree with you. I liked the French guys game as above and it always felt tight but it also always felt like Dan had that extra gear. Sampras made a career on grass of doing what you said re Federer as well, just cruising along to 4-4 , 5-5 or so and then putting the foot down and taking the set. Both of them, Fed and Sampras had loads of 7-5 6-3 6-4 style wins through their Wimbledon career
