Emma plays her best tennis going all aggressive, dare i say it (yes) that's basically when she goes Bertball.

All her fears disappear when she takes the game by the throat, believes in herself, her game and goes all out attack.

Andy gave it everything he had and played some vintage Murray tennis but playing with one hip and at his age against 6ft 10in Isner with a serve like a rocket was never gonna be easy.....but well done Andy, it was a pleasure to watch the match....

Where he meets the very beatable unseeded David Goffin for a place in the semi's probably against the unknown Serb by the name of Novak Djokovic - piece of piss.

He'll then meet his foe Nadal in the final, good luck son thas nowt to lose - Go all Bertball on em all.

Where has this Tim Van Rijthoven guy been hiding all this time? Certainly looks a talent. It's a shame he won't gain any ranking points off the back of this.
