Milos into the third round of Wimbledon with three identical tie-breaker set scores (7-6(4) 7-6(4) 7-6(4)). He almost killed a ball girl in the process (about 40 seconds in).

Milos moves on in straight sets

so much for that.
ah well, a couple of rounds is a step forward I guess.

I watched the match and Genie actually played well, her opponent played just a little bit better. I hope she sticks with her new coach as there are some definite encouraging signs.

Disappointing loss for Denis today, but the draw has opened up for Milos:

Update from the All-England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club - Milos is into the quarter-finals when he will face John Isner, expect to see very few rallies and at least three tie-breakers.

I will decline picking a winner in this one. :spy:

What's the over/under in total combined aces for Milos/Isner - I think we could easily reach triple digits.

Raonic/Isner should be fun on Wednesday. The winner goes to the semis to face Federer more than likely.

After dropping the first two sets against Roger Federer, Kevin Anderson has won the next two sets. I still think Fed will prevail, but this match has gone on way longer than I thought it would.

Wimbledon update - Federer and Anderson are currently tied 6-6 in the fifth set - No tie-breaker in the fifth set at Wimbledon, thus we could be here a while.
