Heather Watson won her first round yesterday, Laura Robson is one set up against Schiavone the 24th seed. The girls are doing well so far.

Murray starting things the right way, putting the hurt on Davydenko from the start. This is lining up to be a very, very bad memory for Nicolay..*

6 more matches like this please and thank you.


  • ETA: Unless he's had a bit of a side bet on himself (again allegedly) to only win one game in this match wink

Baker's holding it together against Roddick at the moment. Don't think they've ever played so probably just going with serve. I think Roddick has been here too many times before to let Baker do anything more than get it to a tie-breaker in the first then take it 64, 62. Wouldn't mind being wrong however, it would be a great win for Baker if he can hold his nerve.

Solid performance by Murray. Not sure why they've put Ferrer on Court 18, a massive liberty for a player of his class. He is having a battle with Dustin Brown, very close match and would be interesting to see exactly what is going on. Not sure they the extension cord for the cameras stretches to 18 though wink A break in the 2nd and two breaks in the third I think and he'll be happy get the first match under his belt and settle into R2.

Roddick starting to step up now. Too much quality and experience for Baker, who has no doubt been playing his A-game from the first point.

I'm guessing Murray's Mum picked his first round opponent.

Its good for Mr Murray to have some other Brits get past the first round with him.

Great effort from Watson, she can have a good run here with a bit of belief.

Fognini about to be on the wrong side of Youtube highlights.

woohoo, well done Ms Watson,

I have been following her progress for a while now and out of all of the Brits I think she might have a chance to make the big break, she is tenacious and there is a sparkle in her eye...

So they can't finish a match with the roof close that started with it open? How odd.
