Andy Murray's brother Jamie has as good a chance as anyone at winning some silverware this year. He's a doubles specialist. He got himself bounced from the men's doubles, but he's still alive in mixed doubles. And he has Martina Hingis to protect him in that draw.

I'm happy that's the Tour has a day of rest today: with all matches today on this "manic Monday' , it's enough switching of the various tv court channels.

@Walter Hinteler,
I'm stunned at Nadal losing to Muller - an epic match ending in an unexpected exit - so sad.

In my mind it wasn't that Nadal lost to Muller. It was that Muller beat Nadal.
Some amazing mental toughness from that German.

@panzade,
Gilles Müller is a Luxembourgian professional tennis player. Wink

(French, German, and Luxembourgish are the official languages of Luxembourg - Müller is a family name in German and Luxembourgish.)

@Walter Hinteler,
Glad Djokovic is through but his shoulder seems to be giving him problems, which is worrying. Venus through okay - and Konta.

@ossobucotemp,
Sorry to see Djokovic had to quit because of shoulder/elbow injury - but good to see Federer through.

Is it possible for them both to win Wimbledon this year?
Like in the Hunger Games?

Alas, no.

Well, I'll be cheering for whoever wins their match to take the final as well.

@vonny,
What this has mostly meant to me is no Pointless for two weeks. It's only 45 minutes long, s it too much to ask? There's always BBC2.
