I don't know what I want from the Brits here, with Liam already home and hosed and others doing well.

Err, because I meant to have a bet365 'Lucky 15' bet on the 4 Brits ( basically 15 stakes, taking in all 4 singles, 6 doubles, 4 trebles and the full foursome accumulator ) but the odds weren't up last night and then I didn't get round to it today.

Hmm, come on guys, I think ...

 I do feel rather guilty for the initial curse I gave when I found out that Liam had won and Alastair appeared poised for victory.

Nah, no jinxes - just went south - what can you do ....

However, Mark is putting up a decent show - lost the first set, but took it to a TB

Unsurprisingly, Millman had too much for Liam:

I was looking at the bbc 2 schedule thinking theyd be showing the centre court matches but when the program started thy only showed womens matches - do they not have rights to show the mens? Is it on prime or something? (Just got access to prime again recently and havent checked it yet)

I know nowt about television rights, but my understanding was that, as the men have virtually exclusive coverage during Queen's week, the balance is redressed the following week, when the focus switches to the women, even though Eastbourne is a dual event.  Of course, my understanding could easily be wrong...

 Amazon Prime has the ATP rights hence why BBC cant show them, but traditionally they have always shown Eastbourne as a womens event on the BBC, it is quite recent that the mens event got added to the weeks fun.

Had a quick look on prime and it seems to only show as available from the 23rd?

 He's playing like a dream this first set, serving to take it 6-2. Here's hoping it's not too good to last lol

Jack is playing so well and looks so strong.
The noise when the ball leaves his racquet.
This lad is going places for sure.
