Yes,I saw her on Eurosport. It seemed strange seeing her having to play in the qualifiers. Then later on,Sabine Lisicki who has done so well at Wimbledon in the past. I think it's right they have to qualify if their rankings are low,rather than be given wild cards.

James Ward only Brit left in Qualifiers, Dan Evans lost in 2nd round.

 

Eastbourne today battle of Male Brits

 

Kyle V Andy and Jay Clark V Cam Norrie, shame all playing each other but great to have 2 brits into quarter finals.

 

Konta takes on Wozniacki as well, Konta has yet to lose to Wozniacki but things bit different this year.

 

Hevs loss means she is out of top 100 in next ranking update

Interesting that the top 4 ranked women are the reigning champions of all of the slams! When was the last time that happened? :D

 

Also LOL at Andy Murray tumbling to 838 in the world (and the 23rd highest Brit!)

Something to make everyone here feel just that bit older!

Jay Clarke has moved up to a New Career High of 175. He is now Number 18 on the "Next Gen ATP" race to Milan.

Murray facing Kyle next. Gonna have to rate Kyle as the favourite here...

Konta beat Serena Williams in straight sets yesterday, recording Williams's worst ever defeat (1 - 6, 0 - 6) ever.

Doesn't appear that Serena was injured at all. Not sure what to read from that match. But well done Konta.

 

 

In a Slam however it would most likely be the other way round!

Murray beat Edmund 7-6 (7-4) 1-6 6-4 in their second round match at the Washington Open.

Benoit Paiore has been fined £12.500 for this at the Washington Open:

 

Ridiculous scheduling in Murray's match finishing at 3am. Wouldn't be surprised if he pulled out of his quarter-final match.

 

 

Kyle Edmund was thrashed 6-1 6-2 by Diego Schwartzman in the first round of the Rogers Cup in Toronto, Canada.

Johanna Konta came from behind to beat 11th seed Jelena Ostapenko in the first round of the Rogers Cup in Montreal.

 

Konta, ranked 43rd in the world after starting the year in ninth, prevailed 6-7 6-1 6-2.

Konta & Azarenka will have to wait for Cornet & Barty's 3rd round match to finish before returning to court to finish their 2nd round match.

Djokovic out of the Rogers Cup as he loses in three sets to Tsitsipas.

Johanna Konta was beaten 6-3 6-4 by defending champion Elina Svitolina in her second match of the day at the Rogers Cup in Montreal.

Both Murray and Konta are out in the first round of Cincinnati.

Poor Konta, she was up at No.4 after Wimbledon last year and now she is outside the Top 50. Hope that she can have a good run at the US Open.
