    John McEnerney: Novak looking like he’s getting there. He wants full shot workouts every time he steps on court. He’ll be there and thereabouts when Wimbledon starts. Hard to keep a good man down!

    Brilliant from Jeremy Chardy! The Frenchman saves the break point with a beautiful volley at the net which he played so delicately. Then at deuce he produces two tremendous returns which forces Novak Djokovic to strain every sinew but are just out of reach.
