Evans, meanwhile, impressed in a dominant display to oust 18th seed Nikoloz Basilashvili 6-3 6-2 7-6 (7-2).

He's a bit of an idiot but he really makes it glorious to watch. Some of the shots he pulls off are insane too. If he can sort his head out and get a decent coach he will be challenging for slams no doubt.

Gauff, ranked 301, beat Belgium's world 129 Greet Minnen 6-1 6-1 in the final round of qualifying. She's through to the fourth round and plays Halep just absolutely brilliant from her.

Gauff is going to be a big player. Considering she still makes errors that can easily be improved with practice, it would be a surprise if she wasn't challenging in a couple of years.

An unexpected appearance on Centre Court for Polona Hercog.

It's still will be the return of the Mack 4eva Joined: 1 February 2011 Posts: 53,718 User: 12,915	Johanna Konta is the only Briton left in the Wimbledon singles after staging a determined comeback against American Sloane Stephens to reach the last 16. The 2017 semi-finalist had trailed by a set and was under pressure on her serve before regrouping to win 3-6 6-4 6-1. Compatriot Dan Evans had many chances against Portugal's Joao Sousa but lost 4-6 6-4 7-5 4-6 6-4 in an epic battle. Fellow Briton Harriet Dart was earlier overwhelmed 6-1 6-1 by Australian world number one Ashleigh Barty.

The 28-year-old came from a set down to beat the Czech sixth seed 4-6 6-2 6-4.

The 23-time Grand Slam champion beat Riske 6-4 4-6 6-3 to set up a last four meeting with Britain's Johanna Konta or Czech Barbora Strycova.

BuzzJack Platinum Member Joined: 3 January 2017 Posts: 10,156 User: 23,961	That was a big collapse from Johanna Konta after being 4-1 up in the first set,a string of unforced errors. Another opportunity to win a grand slam missed.

BuzzJack Legend Joined: 4 November 2013 Posts: 30,535 User: 20,053	When I saw the title I was thinking oh here we go again, she can't take bottling the match so vents it out on the media but fairplay that journalist was a complete asshole there. Hoping for a surprise Svitolina win now but she'll have to beat 2 of the best to do so!
