    Cibulkova in 3, 5-7, 7-5, 6-3.

    Bloomin eck, my picks in this 'Suicide Game' like to give me a run for my money don't they? :o

    Thank goodness, got the break back. Each point is such a pain!

    It's a sorry sight to witness. The bullfighting aura has completely evaporated. :(

    Agree!

    he honestly looks capable of losing to anyone nowadays

    He's been so awful for so long now it is really starting to get hard to ever see him contending in slams again

    Genies serve is pretty weak.

    Oh boy. I jinxed him - Rafa gets broken serving for the first set.

    I think I am jinxing him just by watching him :( if he was playing the night match I would be in bed, agree about this outfit but I love the Black night one he wore the other night.

    It really is a nightmare watching Rafa play these days. :( I feel like even I could beat him on my mobility scooter. :D

    I have put £10 on Schwartzman though. :D so he should lose.

    I really think Fish was worthy of the night session for his last match rather than the Novak procession we're getting. Going out under the lights with a big home cheer would have been a fitting end after all he's fought through. Conservative scheduling again.

    Blonde guy from One Direction watching Genie. I guess he's another one of her showbiz "pals".

    Finally Genie puts it away. Her opponent was gracious in defeat. NOT.

    Yay! Go Genie. Good to see her finding herself again. Should be a good match against Cibulkova, will be happy for whoever gets to the 4th round.

    Leave him alone, the poor fella will be out of work soon.

    He usually hangs around with Novak at these things, doesn't he?

    He could be her bag carrier now that Rory is done with him. Hope he doesn't fall over this time.

    Not sure. They zelebs usually latch on to someone they can get free tickets to see.

    Dimis game has fallen apart. Nowhere near the player he was.

    First time she's won 2 on the bounce since IW. :blush:

    Thought she was going to pull a Robbo this evening. It was looking that way at 5-4 after being 4-0 up.

    Dimi takes the 4th and goes berserk. :D

    Bencic just really stropped away that first set, really shows she's still just a teenager.

    Seriously? Her dog is part named after the boy Rafa?

    If I hadn't already been rooting for her - well that would have swung it for me!:D

    ETA: Just looked on internet and Chip is almost as cute as his tennis namesake.:p

    Yep that's Serena's son right there :kitty:.

    He comes with her during training, matches, err and photoshoots lol. Serena does his laundry since a dog can never have enough clothes :o
