Ah man Anisimova is a credit to herself in this on court interview. Doing so well.

[Alex Talks Tennis @AlexTalksTennis]

It’s a match you don’t really want to talk about. Swiatek was so good but Anisimova froze.

So let’s talk about what it means for Swiatek.

6 slams by 24. Never lost a final. One from the career slam.

One of the best of all time already and god this could just make her better

Being a first time finalist is so hard when up against a veteran of them. Saw it for years with Murray #Wimbledon

I was scared it would be sad and it is sad #Wimbeldon

I’m actually crying for Grigor. One of the cruelest things I’ve ever seen. Devastated for him #Wimbledon

[Alex Talks Tennis @AlexTalksTennis]

Yesterday was such a reminder of why I love tennis and Wimbledon in particular.

Nothing much to write home about all day and then one special experience can happen.

Sat on the hill with my wife and thousands of others trying to cheer Emma to victory was so special.

Always find it interesting being at big tournaments and hearing other people’s tennis opinions.

People are terrible at line calls in general and then today heard someone say how good Norrie Bellucci was, which I thought the standard of was terrible.

Saying that it’s always a pleasure to be here.

[Alex Talks Tennis @AlexTalksTennis]

It’s certainly a good job both Brits have won in Court One because neither match is anything to write home about…

Expecting more from Svitolina v Mertens #Wimbledon

[Alex Talks Tennis @AlexTalksTennis]

Fancy both Norrie and Kartal to do the job and then Svitolina as well.

Just getting ready to go off to Wimbledon!

A very Brit heavy day for us on Court 1 before one of just FIVE all seed matches at this stage!

Hoping to catch Anisimova early doors and hopefully some doubles later.

Hello from London.
