TP blows a 6-2 lead in the 4th set breaker but still escapes. Going the distance.

Tiafoe loses two service games in first set.
Dimitrov backhand is giving him issues.
Might be a tough day for the American, who should be highlighted due to his story (refugee from Sierra Leone).

Two loose points from Holger. Not looking good.

Who would have thought Chris Eubanks would be the last American standing

Pretty insane MLs on Berrettini and Eubanks.

Yeah no shame really in losing to Dimitrov, who is a good shot maker with a solid game. It seems he lost badly though, basically getting blown out in straight sets. Disappointing tournament for Tiafoe considering the momentum he had coming in.

I’m watching some of Rublev-Bublik. Seems like Bublik has been making some noise this year. Hit two straight double faults at 5-6, 30 all to lose the first set though.

Very nice surprise to have Eubanks into the round of 16. He has basically been a journeyman type player for his career so far, so winning Mallorca and then making this run at Wimbledon are major achievements for him. He is going to get a nice pay day from this. Not to mention with the way he has been serving, he has a chance to beat Tsitsipas on the grass.

Bublik is using that Kyrgios/Cressy approach of basically two first serves. It's great when it works but makes you look really bad when it doesn't.

Bublik is a resilient son of a bitch. Looks loose as hell while Rublev puckering up.

Janik Sinner wins in straight sets over Galan to advance to the quarterfinals - he is the first Italian to reach two Wimbledon quartefinals.

Iga is like a robot out there. She is a great tennis player but she seems like she is controlled by her coaching box. She just doesn’t look like she is having any fun. And even off court her actions seem controlled. Her personality is that of a depressed person.

Yeah, she really doesn't look like she gets too excited.

No chatter on GOATovic yet? Just showed Fowler and Stokke in the crowd.

Hubie looking very strong and sharp behind the serve so far.

But it's going to take a miracle for him to break Novak.

Would not be surprised if this one goes 4 with 3 TBs. (And into tomorrow because of the dumbass curfew rules.)

Conditions favoring the servebot pole. Novak needs to wear him down no way he keeps this percentage up.

This serve bot shite is annoying. And if Djoko can't break his serve then it's going to be a long night.
