Mullins and Davenport have been paired together quite a few times now this week. It's quite unusual at Wimbledon to get two people commentating together this often, especially during the first week.

I think it's Liz Smylie with Barry Davies and I'm not fully sure but it sounds like Alison Mitchell on Court 18 with Louise Pleming

Interesting that Andrew Castle ( BBCs probable number 1 ) hasn't had a Murray game yet. It has been Petchy, Cotter and Reed as lead man. I am sure that will change if AM gets through this round

Looks like it will be Andrew Cotter and Lindsay Davenport for the women's final.

Thanks for that link, interesting stuff.
Its a real shame there's no Peter Fleming this year, he's an excellent commentator. Wonder if his continual slipping down the pecking order in recent years is a factor as well. I can remember the BBC being quite excited about him joining in the late 90's and then along have come McEnroe, Becker, Connors, Lloyd, Henman & Rusedski ahead of him. On the subject of the womens final I'd agree that Davenport, more recent and a former champion, is perhaps a better choice. Not sure Cotter though, excellent as he is, should be doing the final ahead of the tennis specialists such as Petchey, Mercer & Reed. I know it won't happen but the two older guys, Mercer & Reed, should get the singles finals, by far the two best lead commentators this tournament. Today Wozniacki v Gajdsova Barry Davies & Lindsay Davenport Nadal v Muller David Mercer & John Lloyd Sharapova v Zakopalov Matt Chilton & Virgina Wade Georges v Cibulkova Andrew Cotter & Sam Smith Bartoli v Pennetta Jason Goodall & Jo Durie |

That as the case may be, they are not "BBC Men" like Cotter and Castle.

To be honest Castle has not been a BBC man when he has covered previous finals. He has being at GMTV and ITV. Plus Mark Petchy did the last two ladies finals and he is a Sky man.
