Cornet, you let that chance slip.

That's what I meant when I said connected tv. You can get iPlayer on your tv via the internet.
Ah, yes! Sorry, I misunderstood

I was thinking it had something to do with her loss to Alize. Didn't realise she'd lost 3 on the bounce. No wonder she's playing badly. Alize has the look of someone possessed tonight like the Exorcist.
It still blows my mind. I mean of all the players in the world to have a very rare, almost respectable h2h against Serena, you would never imagine it'd be Alize of all people!

Not in a million years. This is brilliant now. They are both hamming it up big style. It's like Bette Davis vs Joan Crawford.

Wow a double fault to hand back the break. She is really in her head.

Bad luck to Cornet. Let's see if she can bounce back in set 2.

Shame Cornet couldn't take that. Serena should be ok now, but she did lose after taking the first set that time at Wimbledon, so you never know.

This is too easy for Serena now. We need the melodrama back.

She's usually on her phone during Serenas matches.

At least she's not asleep like the annoying nephew always does.

Looks like a 2 year old's been controlling the on-screen scoring so far at the Olympic tennis

Not to be in the end, but 4 in a row would've been frankly ludicrous! Positive signs for Cornet though to take forward into the rest of the season given her not so great year so far.

Thanks for the heads up as I would have missed it as the guide says weightlifting.

Andy is 2nd on centre tomorrow after CSN/Keys, with Rafa/Seppi straight after.
