There was no alts left to replace them. If Heather's plane had been earlier in the day, she would've left Rio also!
And if there hadn't been rain on Wednesday the first round of the mixed wouldn't have been delayed....

Such is fate - but there are some good teams left.

It's raining again today so there could be further delays.

Maybe no matches at all if it rains all day.

his wiki says he coached La Monf years ago, so I think he should manage Benny

Happy Birthday Pistol Pete

Lots of people may have said you were boring, but I always liked your tennis.

Laura's ITF match is being streamed. She has won the first set 6-3.

Tara is ok , she's updated on twitter a few times.

Laura's ball toss - has there been a player with such a shaky toss?

Doesn't look like it's raining at the moment, from looking at the video stream of Centre Court.

Currently not on any of the extra Sky channels. You will have to watch via the BBC Sport app or the website.
I get the feeling though it may appear on BBC Olympics 1 (Sky 472) in a minute or so once the basketball on there gets to half time.

Keep an eye on Sky 472 though, basketball about to hit half time and they may switch.

It's not the BBC's fault they keep changing the schedule. I bet you blame the BBC if your tea is lukewarm.
