    Raducanu loses the first set, first one she's lost in the Championship.

    Women’s tennis is so poor

    Raducanu taking a medical timeout. Have to say she looks absolutely knackered.

    Raducanu's withdrawn due to some sort of ailment, sad way for her experience to end, just hope she's ok.

    Tough watch seeing Radukanu struggle through that.

    Tomljanovic spoke very well after the match, sounded like she thought the injury to Raducanu was genuine as opposed to the one to Ostapenko. Puts her in a place she'd probably rather not be though!

    She did. I'm essentially asking Chazz why he's being sarcy about women's tennis that he thinks is rubbish. He's obviously been monitoring the match?

    Shouldn't allow athletes under 60 years old then. Re-string your racket (sic) and have a go.

    What would a know nowt like McEnroe know compared to an expert like you eh


    Speaking to presenter Clare Balding after the match, McEnroe suggested Raducanu buckled under the pressure and got 'emotional'. He said: 'I feel bad for Emma, I mean obviously it got - it appears it got a bit too much, as is understandable, particularly what we've been talking about for the last six weeks.

    'How much can players handle? It makes you look at the guys that have been around and the girls for so long, how well they can handle it. These guys that can keep their composure and the girls out there are absolutely amazing - so we have to appreciate the players that are able to do it so well and hopefully she will learn from this experience.'

    Perhaps Mr McEnroe should follow your expert lead and start to denigrate the women's game.
    Not even a whisper did I detect. On the contrary, he was wise and very supportive of the 18 year old.

    Extremely cheap.
    18 y.o. ffs. Ranked 338, wild card to No 1 court.
    Cheap and unnecessary.

    So you agree with what he said? Good. Cleared that up.
    The plucky Brit at Wimbledon gets put in the drawer for next year.

    That would be the "poor drawer" with all the other female tennis players would it?
