A great result for Arthur, even against an opponent with stomach illness. (As an aside, I can't imagine playing a best of five match with stomach illness.)

But of course, Arthur's had his own injury issues. Hadn't realised he has the same bone bruising that Jack Draper has, and which forced him to retire last week. He deserves some luck, and made the most of the opportunity.

Just watching Norrie - am in a green t-shirt which says British Tennis on it, behind the umpire's chair a few rows up. My mate is on my left from that perspective.

Bonzi takes the 2nd set, deservedly so, kept knocking on the door with BPs which Cam saved but won the tiebreaker pretty comfortably 7-2.

Cam is very far from his best level right now. Hopefully he can find a second wind.

Top win for Arthur.

Just had to quickly check where I had him in my rankings prediction. Thought I had left him out completely but I can rest easy now.

Go Arthur.

Well done, Cam! Glad he's got back his ability to tough it out and win tight matches. smile

Fantastic start for the men. Can Jake find his form/confidence again and make it 3 out of 3?

I just saw a ball girl collapse backwards in the Alexandrova - Sonmez match, try to get up and then thankfully a quick thinking Sonmez and the umpire had hold of her as her legs buckled a second time. Must be brutally hot conditions as usual.
