Serena Williams has just had to retire through injury, another slip on centre court. Wonder if there’s an issue with the grass being too wet to play safely on.

No multiple red button options for wimbledon this year? You had the option of 10 matches to watch as I remember on BBCTV in 2019. There are 6 RB options for Wimbledon on my freesat |

I don’t know who is commentating on the Coco Gauff game with Tracey Austin, but she must be one of the worst I have ever listened to. Dear God, she just burbles away like an obsessed super fan. Barely any facts about the game, that’s all left to Tracey. Indeed when Tracey asked her something she replied she didn’t know, she was concentrating on something else. Absolutely hopeless.

Just watched the Murray game from yesterday. It was a lot of rubbish. Everyone kissing his butt about what a fighter he is. Just a shame it's tennis and not martial arts. Fiver says he's out next round.

Just watching the highlights... apparently someone called Sam Smith? |

What's with the rap music at the start of BBC 2 coverage?

Watching the Sebastian Korda match, we are up to 12 breaks of serve in the final set!
Korda has held serve! Finally! We’re already at 8-7 and we’ve only had the third hold, 😂. Apparently this is Korda’s first five setter.

Catching up on yesterday's Court One. Cracking game from our girl and now onto Cilic v Medvedev. WFT is this with the ball? 10 bounces every single time! Well that's me off to find another game. Can't be doing with my inner Lady Bracknell coming out.

What's with the rap music at the start of BBC 2 coverage? Doesn't surprise me. Probably end coverage with a bit of techno. |

Apparently this is Korda’s first five setter. Settled down to watching this match and Sue Barker interjects and off the coverage goes to the internet. Not even red button. Incidentally no reference is made to the red button anymore. Just BBC website and I-Player. Perhaps its considered old hat now. |
