    *Keys 5-7 0-4 Rodina

    Four break points saved by Madison Keys. The 10th seed is still in this. Just.

    Deuce.

    You shouldn't have to apologise, Joel. That made me chuckle.

    Joel: Rodina giving her opponent a taste of her own Madison. I'm not sorry.

    *Keys 5-7 0-4 Rodina

    Madison Keys has a wry smile on her face. She misses another forehand and then chuckles to herself when world number 120 Evgeniya Rodina hits a stunning backhand passing shot leaving her stranded at the net.

    Nothing is going the American's way. Here's another break point...

  5. Kohlschreiber breaks backpublished at 12:31 British Summer Time 6 July 2018

    *Kohlschreiber 3-6 1-1 Anderson

    What's that old football saying? You're at your most vulnerable when you've just scored?

    Well, that logic can sometimes be applied to Kevin Anderson, too. The South African is broken having only just edged into a break advantage himself.

    A confidence-booster for Philipp Kohlschreiber?

    I just love the way Rodina plays with a cloud parked on her forehead. Like this is the worst thing in the world.

    *Keys 5-7 0-4 Rodina

    I think I might have to update the picture I made earlier shortly.

    Another seed looks to be heading out. Madison Keys has another break point opportunity but wastes it and then slaps another forehand into the net.

    Nine game in a row for Rodina...

    The match is being lost by Madison Keys, Rodina is just nudging it from side to side. The only thing to stop Rodina is herself and if Keys starts making her first serve more effective.

  9. Anderson breakspublished at 12:27 British Summer Time 6 July 2018

    Kohlschreiber 3-6 0-1 Anderson*

    No messing around from Kevin Anderson in the second set, he takes an early break to establish the advantage against Philipp Kohlschreiber.

    Anderson has his sleeves strung up almost over his shoulders - no one wants a tennis tan, eh?

  10. Rodina breaks againpublished at 12:26 British Summer Time 6 July 2018

    Keys 5-7 0-3 Rodina*

    Is this match effectively over? Madison Keys buries her face in her towel. Another game, another one won by Evgeniya Rodina.

    Keys' unforced error tally is up at 21.

    She was 5-2 up in the first set remember.

    Keys 5-7 0-2 Rodina*

    Madison Keys is chuntering to herself, waving her arms and slapping her thigh in frustration. She brings up 0-40 on the Rodina serve but then makes a string of errors to see the chance disappear.

    It has been some comeback from Evgeniya Rodina. Seven games in a row and counting.

    *Kohlschreiber 3-6 0-0 Anderson

    Kevin Anderson closes out the first set over on court two.

    The big-serving South African eighth seed hammered down seven aces in that opening set, taking it in 35 minutes.

    A bit of excitement down on the practice courts as Novak Djokovic isn’t here for his 12pm start.

    The former number one struggled with injury in his match yesterday... anything to worry about? Is there a story developing here?

    No, he’s been spotted at Aorangi and is just running late apparently...

  15. Rodina breaks in second setpublished at 12:18 British Summer Time 6 July 2018

    Keys 5-7 0-1 Rodina*

    Madison Keys is falling apart. She is broken to love in the first game of the second set.

    Six games in a row to qualifier Evgeniya Rodina.

  16. Anderson on course to take first setpublished at 12:16 British Summer Time 6 July 2018

    Kohlschreiber 2-5 Anderson

    Philipp Kohlschreiber has got himself on the board against Kevin Anderson on court two. However, the German, who is seeded 25th, is still a break down in the first set and is struggling to find answers to the 6ft 8in South African's mammoth serves.

  17. Game and first set - Rodinapublished at 12:15 British Summer Time 6 July 2018

    *Keys 5-7 0-0 Rodina

    *Upset alert*.

    A forehand into the net from 10th seed Madison Keys. Qualifier Evgeniya Rodina wins five games in a row to take the opening set.

    Could we be about to lose a seventh top 10 seed in the women's draw?

    Keys 5-6 Rodina*

    When it's good it's really good from Madison Keys and when it's bad she's missing by a distance. She brings up break point with some booming forwards but then another ground stroke drifts way long.

    Deuce.

    I always feel when a tournament like this where so many seeded players go out the other players, like Rodina who came through qualifying and did it the hard way start to believe they can take out the favourites.
