Jennie Gow has now managed to corner Frank Bruno, so to speak.
"It's a bit more hectic and enthusiastic than a boxing match," the former heavyweight champ says on Radio 5 live sports extra.
"I hope it's a great victory, Andy Murray does a great victory and we can fly the flag and be happy."
Ever the patriot, Frank.

Image source, BBC SportIt goes without saying I had to stop this chap in his tracks. He is the Monaco Menace.
"Why the Monaco Menace," I ask before he pulls out a loud speaker from under his child's pram."
The reveal causes several people around me to shuffle away.
"I've been going to Monaco 17 years straight with this," adds Mr Menace.
Closer inspection of the loud speaker reveals a load of signatures.
"Loads have signed it," he adds. "Lewis has, Bernie has. This one (pictured) is Mika Hakkinen's signature. He took ages to do it! Everyone else was really quick but he really took his time to sign it."

BBC Radio 5 live sports extra Formula 1 analystI am absolutely soaked, it's unbelievably wet.
Club looks more like a boating lake than a racing track.
It's very annoying, but it's the right decision to start behind the safety car.

It's sunny now, of course it is.
But there's a moist track and a safety car start.
Do you start on full wet tyres or intermediates... or if you're really brave, a set of slicks?

Image source, Mail on SundayThe Mail on Sunday focuses on Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg and whether they can avoid crashing into each other again.
They say: "Close to 140,000 souls in this breezy old airfield will hold their breath as the battle unfolds. None more so than Toto Wolff, the Austrian team principal of Mercedes who will find out if his instructions not to collide count for anything in the minds of the two drivers battling it out for motor racing's championship of the world."

Before the rain poured, cricketer Stuart Broad and comedian Robert Webb were out and about.
Wait, hearing that it's golfer Danny Willett, not Robert Webb.

Rain may favour Hamilton over Rosberg - Surteespublished at 12:44 British Summer Time 10 July 2016
John Surtees, the 1964 world champion, is excited to feel the rain coming down quite heavily.
"That's going to throw another factor in. We'll have to see how it plays out," he tells Radio 5 live sports extra.
"It's certainly going to bring in a lot more questions."
Surtees is asked whether it helps Lewis Hamilton or Nico Rosberg.
"They are both extremely good drivers, quite different, but it may be it gives the edge to Hamilton."

Image source, Getty ImagesFerrari gave the latest version of the ‘halo’ head protection system a run in Friday practice and Sebastian Vettel expressed reservations after running it for a lap.
“Forward visibility was fine, OK,” he said of the device that some have likened to a flip-flop on top of the car.
“Obviously you still have something in the middle but it was quite a bit on top of you. You are not looking at the sky all the time (but) it needs some further running.It is clear what it is made for and what it is supposed to do but we just need to make sure we introduce something safer in all circumstances and we don’t have any compromises. there are always certain scenarios you cannot cover but you try to cover as much as possible.”
Governing body the FIA is still pressing on with plans. F1 director Charlie Whiting has made it clear to teams it is set to be used, pending final confirmation, and the technical directors have accepted it and are designing their cars for it.
There is some reluctance at the level of the strategy group of leading teams, but it is considered unlikely anyone will put their head above the parapet to stop it. Not least because of the insurance risks if it is not adopted and then someone gets hurt or killed.

Scratch that. It's properly raining now. This could be interesting.
