  1. Top seed Osaka on way out?

    UPSET KLAXON

    Victoria Azarenka is making this second set her own.

    She seals the first break of the set before holding to go 4-2 up.

    This looks like it's going to be Azarenka's day. How will Osaka respond?

  2. *Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 2-3 Edmund

    Just as I praise Cuevas he plays a poor game of his own. A forehand is out of control and a drop shot hits the net.

    We're still on serve.

  3. Game and second set - Bublik

    *Thiem 6-3 6-7 (6-8) 0-0 Bublik

    Over on Court Philippe Chatrier, fourth seed Dominic Thiem has lost the second set on a tie-break against Kazakhstan's Alexander Bublik.

    Bublik held a 4-1 game lead, before Thiem fought back to take it to a tie-break and the Austrian had one set point in that but could not take it and we're all square.

    The winner of that one plays the winner of the Cuevas-Edmund match.

  4. Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 2-2 Edmund*

    While Edmund has been a bit up and down, Cuevas has looked very solid and every inch a clay-court specialist.

    He dabs his forehand with the white sweatband around his wrist before holding to love in quick time.

  5. Edmund holds

    *Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 1-2 Edmund

    No mistake on the smash this time from the British number one. He gives this one plenty - maybe with a tinge of frustration from that miss a few moments ago - and bounces it out of the court.

    That helps Kedders hold.

    There's a bit of a spring in his step as he heads for a breather.

    "I think he wants to go home for the weekend," grumbles an Estuary Essex accent from behind.

    She's joking, of course. But safe to say this British fan is worried about what she's seeing from Edmund.

    Edmund has dropped a few too short, giving Cuevas the opportunity to step in.

    Cuevas has been a bit of a late developer and some of his best results have come in the past three years when he has been over 30.

  8. Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 1-1 Edmund*

    Ouch. A forehand error from Kyle Edmund brings up break point for Cuevas. This spells big trouble.

  9. Osaka* 4-6 2-2 Azarenka

    In a topsy-turvy fourth game, Azarenka eventually holds her serve to restore parity at 2-2 on her third advantage point.

    But Osaka could, and should, have broken her, scuppering three break points.

    Could she come to rue that missed opportunity?

    We could get some rain here today, but it has to rain pretty hard for them to stop play so I don't think there's too much to worry about.

  11. Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 1-1 Edmund*

    Oh Kyle. He shanks a smash horribly, so much so that it bounces on his side before going over the net. To make things worse had Edmund left it then I'm pretty confident it would have gone out.

    It does at least show attacking intent from the Briton, even in a losing cause in this game.

    A gloomy cloud hangs over Kyle Edmund. And it’s not just a metaphor. Let’s hope it doesn’t turn dark and stormy for the Brit.

  13. *Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 0-1 Edmund

    The court has had a good sweep between sets so the battle lines have been removed. If Edmund is going to win this then needs to get his forehand firing and get on the attack more often.

    There's some early promise here with two forehand winners. Can he keep that up?

  14. Jonathan Jurejko

    We talk a lot about movement on this surface, Pablo Cuevas scurries over the bright dirt like a lizard in the desert. So comfortable.

  15. Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 0-0 Edmund*

    Kyle Edmund is first up out of his chair. Can he turn this one around?

  16. 'Very disappointing'

    That tie-break was very disappointing considering how well he did to come back and force that, but then he made too many errors.

    Cuevas has hit twice as many winners as Kyle and that is not what we expected. Cuevas has managed to do a lot of damage with his backhand and Kyle needs to get on the front foot.

  17. Osaka 4-6 2-1 Azarenka*

    Nothing to shout about over on Lenglen at the moment as the second set stays with the server.

    Osaka held break point in the second game but failed to convert as Azarenka took the game at advantage.

  18. Game and first set - Cuevas

    Cuevas 7-6 (7-3) 0-0 Edmund

    Kyle Edmund goes long again. That's a nasty tie-break from the Briton. He's going to have to come from behind to win this.

  19. Cuevas 6-6 (6-3) Edmund*

    Rock solid this time from Cuevas. He brings up set points...

  20. *Cuevas 6-6 (4-3) Edmund

    The Brits in the crowd try to lift Edmund as he stands from his chair. He closes the gap back to one.
