So weird seeing colours at Wimbledon.

Yeah, can't see how anyone can complain with all the channels.

Shouldn't have had Federer beating a nomark on BBC 1 though yesterday. How many commentators are there at the tennis? Most sports make do with the same 2 for everything and they have to go all day. Beeb have got all the Yanks working at the tennis again like Wimbledon.

I just think that sports at the olympics should be ones that the olympic gold is the ultimate prize, tennis clearly isn't a sport where that is the case.

Meh, he's lost 7 in a row and Nishikori is a decent player. Different circumstances.

Murray a set down but 3-1 up in the second, now playing as badly as Burgey posts in the current game. Yeah, that badly.

Nice recovery though. Should wrap this set up now and go on to win the match.

And a break in the third. What looked like a dangerous situation half an hour ago is starting to look like a doddle. Might see what else is on. Weird seeing Centre Court not full for a Murray match.

Disappointing two days for Indian tennis. It was expected but still sad to see. After all that drama and holding the Tennis federation hostage all we got is a spineless performance from Bhupathi and Bopanna. Frustrating that two adults couldn't put their differences aside for one last shot at an Olympic medal.
