    Serena, Djokovic and Ferrer on Centre tomorrow

    Del Potro, Robson and Berdych on Court 1 tomorrow

    Ferrer on centre? Snoozefest and a half. I suppose being 4th seed and all...

    I'm queueing tomorrow, thinking of Dimitrov Ct 18 and then maybe getting resale tickets for Berdych, depending on the state of the match.

    I was lucky in the ballot this year and have Centre Ct tickets for Wednesday. Desperately hoping they'll put Tsonga-Gulbis on, that could be a great match. Murray can go on Court 1 if I've got any say!

    It is ridiculous that so many people leave early and it really doesn't help the image of tennis in this country...

    Great win for Sloane Stephens today against Hampton:)
    She has a nice little draw too and is more than capable of making the second week.

    It wouldn't surprise me you know if Murray was on court 1 on wed. They'll try to give him one match on it anyway and this could be it. Then Fed the next round...

    Is schedule released for tomorrow? Novak and Serena on centre anyway I assume?

    Doubt I'll actually bother watching tomorrow I'd say, sadly zero matches that interest me!

    Simon v Lopez
    Tomic v Querrey
    Harrison v Chardy
    Watson v Keys

    Plenty of good matchups tomorrow.

    Just watching the recap of the sharapova match - how she has not been warned for distracting the other player with that ridiculous squeal is beyond me.

    I couldn't sit as a spectator brought that

    You serious? None of them even remotely appeal to me. Simon is probably the biggest pusher on tour and I'd rather watch grass grow than Querrey.

    Harrison and Chardy will hardly be great and I just can't watch WTA unfortunatlely

    I presume tickets for court 1 aren't cheap? If I was there, I would stay all day and get my money's worth.


    Guess it depends who is on, i mean i went about 5 years ago and there was not really any decent players playing at this time on center, so we went home.

    Funny thing is on court 1 think there was a big game, but if you have CC tickets you can't go in court 1 or 2, just centre or show courts, same thing iwht court 1 tickets, can't go on center or 2.
    Oh no, poor Anne. She hasn't had a decent run anywhere for years now, who is she playing?

    Poor Anne, more like Poor us for having to watch that lol. Time for Anne and Elena to retire, thy had their chance now they just keep embarrassing themselves.

    The highlights really are highlights. Barely 30 seconds of Rogers match.

    In the first round of a slam I look for competitive matches. Not that bothered about watching the top seeds stroll through.

    Like Nadal? :p

    Na I'd rather watch the top players myself tbh.

    Different strokes and all that I guess

    No guarantee them games will even be competitive anyway.

    Only one 5 setter I think in the mens today! The French was full of them!

    Isner will be a tough match but yeah I'd say Hewitt has a great chance.
