A bit ballsy to put 3 and 4 on centre and 1 and 2 on court 1, no?

I do think they'll be the better two matches, though.

Makes a lot more sense if you write home favorite and six times champion on center court tomorrow, no?

Murray goes Centre, that's a no-brainer. Then you pick between Rafa and Roger. Given his career is on the downhill slope, WAY more fans would be thrilled to say "I got to see Federer on Centre Court at Wimbledon."

That, plus the likelihood that it's a more competitive match (Fed-Tsonga).

Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman sitting together on Centre Court. Anna 'you will never see my forehead!' Wintour in front of them.

Terrible start for JW. Tight and broken in his first service game.

First set: Djokovic has won 92% of points on his first serve and 80% on his second.

Bizarre service game from Djokovic to be broken in the fourth game of the second set. Two doubles, another second serve that went in off the frame I think.

Weird.

Very good service game by Tsonga. Great running forehand, followed up with a backhand down the line. At least he's in the match now.

Tomic takes the 2nd set. Djokovic first serve down from 72% to 48% between sets.

Rafter and Ivanisevic sitting together watching it......think it's Goran anyway.

I'd probably have bet large amounts of money that Tomic wouldn't win a set...

Just broke Novak again. Causing him a lot of issues with the slice in that last game.

Kid is the real deal. He's got an almost preternatural ability to anticipate and to make things look easy.

I think I underestimated Tomic this tournament as well. After every round I thought he wouldn't win the next one.

It's actually a very dangerous opponent for Djokovic. Confidence, actual talent, and no pressure.

Long game and a big hold for Tomic. Don't know if it's correct, but I read earlier today that he has spent less time on court than any of the other quarter finalists. His 2nd round was only 2 sets, so perhaps it's true.

That was really silly for Bernie to break himself like that with a string of silly errors (and one unlucky net cord that went against him), because Lord knows Novak hasn't been at all in the mindset to convert a break on his side of the net. That could end up being a major game changer.

Yep, Djokovic breaks again. Big shift in momentum.
