Straight set win for the Great Man over Adrian Mannarino. Heās into the quarter final.
Watched the second set and he is playing well.
Surely he couldnāt win it at nearly 37?
It is hard to write him off but if he gets into a couple of 5 setters before the final that could stop him from winning.
Looks like Serena will be waltzing her way to another Wimbledon title. All top 10 seeded players have now been knocked out of the tournament.
6ft8 bum Kevin Anderson and 6ft10 John Isner advance to Wimbledon QFs.
Wimbledon truly is the preserve for grass munching giraffes.
And Federer the mighty midget will prevail in the land if the giants on his side of the draw.
5ft 10 midget Kei Nishikori slayed another player a half a foot taller than him, the 6ft 4 Ernest Gulbis today. Big surprise as well to see the diminutive pair of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic both taking out 6ft 6 giraffes and both in straight sets as well.
Isner proving his grass court credentials.
Angelique Kerber is a very good player. Sheās most likely to beat Serena.
Reaching your first Championshio quarter final at the age of 33 having never previously got past the 3rd round is more of an anomaly than proving credentials. The only seeded player Isner has had to face so far is a 31 seeded Greek teenager.
Amazing how these midgets take out the giants.
Indeed. Iād say the Great Man is happy to be facing Anderson instead of Monfils. Monfils is a very dangerous player and has caused him problems before. Heās never lost to Anderson.
Havenāt seen Nadal or Djokovic play so far. Both seem to be going well.
Itās his joint career best slam performance, at Wimbledon.

That adds up to an undistinguished journeyman career. Tennis not in a good place at the moment.
Who excels at Wimbledon.
Youāre very impressed by mediocrity in tennis.
Itās Isnerās best career performance.
Djokovic has shown some form. His win over Edmund has hopefully lit the spark now. He destroyed the guy he was playing today.
Nadal hasnt been tested yet. Might happen in the next round if Del Potro gets by Simon he may give him a game. If Simon wins then Nadal will wipe the floor with him.
Well whoop de do, At 33 years of age you would be hoping he would do well at one of the slams. Cant see him beating Raonic though. No point in you watching that match, Iād say rallies would be few and far between.
