I see that Kokkinakis (WR 89), the q2, has lost by 5 & 4 to the up & coming young Swiss, Leandro Riedi (WR 165).

Just heard him interviewed very briefly by John Inverdale, because of the upset, I imagine, & his English is very good.

Just throwing this out there but how does Castle STILL get a job doing the commentary, he is dreadful.

 Its gibberish. Hes stealing a living. Who cares what Jeremy Bates uses as a nickname for him or where Louise Pleming has bought a property. I dont mind a bit of human interest - Brian Jonston was wonderful at this as a cricket commentator - but this is just míndless ramblings.

Dan was second best in the tiebreak throughout, and lost it 7-2. He's now an early break down in the decider so hoping he finds something fresh soon.

Federico Gaio ITA 2-6 7-6(2) *2-0 [WC] Dan Cox GBR

Charlie Broom was also a set up and then lost the 2nd set breaker. Another Brit into the 3rd set.

Charlie was actually a break, almost a double break, up early in that second set.  I have a nasty feeling that he needed to win that, as he probably won't now win the decider.

 Dan now 5-3* up in the decider. Nearly there

Great to hear about JoMo and bless him getting emotional. The money is very welcome for these guys will help them so much more than the general public realise.

Oh Dan. 5-3 up to losing 7-5 in the 3rd. That's going to be tough to take.

Luca Pow loses 3&1.

So that's three wins so far with just Billy to go.
