Nick Kyrgios - I think he knows he has neither the drive or ultimately, the talent, to win a Grand Slam, which is why he acts up. He is just teasing, to cover up the fact he can't deliver on the big stage. His antics aside, have no respect for anyone who tanks on this level. Move along Nick, move along.
Lorna Baker, Edenbridge in Kent
I think Rafa is getting away pretty scott free here. Sure Kyrgios is immature, we know that, but was it mature of Rafa to take an extended toilet break at the end of the first set, or do everything he could to wind him up taking so much time? Don't forget Kyrgios sportingly telling Nadal to challenge a miscalled line judgement too. Rafa did everything he could to deliberately wind up Kyrgios, where Kyrgios was just himself.
Sean, Basingstoke
As a 20 year old tennis fan I love watching Nick Kyrgios play. It's a performance from him, watching him play and the way he acts on court is entertaining for fans. He's a young player, enjoying what he does, and playing some great stuff. Long may it continue!

Will there be more Nick Kyrgios-related talking points to come before the weekend?
The Australian is in action again today in the mixed doubles alongside partner Desirae Krawczyk.
The pair are fourth up on court 18 and are due to face Marcus Daniell and Jennifer Brady...
Good hitting partner, Dan!published at 11:41 British Summer Time 5 July 2019

BBC Sport at WimbledonIf you were going to pick the ideal hitting partner before a Wimbledon third-round match, you’d probably pick Roger Federer.
And that is who Britain’s Dan Evans is practising with this morning before he takes on Portugal’s Joao Sousa on Saturday.
They’re on one of the courts next to a car park and a group of kids peeking through the fence just shouted “Roger!”. The Swiss gives them a wave.
“That’s sick!” one of them says to his friend.
Think he’s made their day.

'Gauff on target to become world's best'published at 11:37 British Summer Time 5 July 2019
Gauff v Hercog
Image source, Getty ImagesCoco Gauff's first coach Sly Black says she has the potential to become the world's best.
The 15-year-old beat five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams and 2017 semi-finalist Magdalena Rybarikova in her first two rounds.
Black, who has also worked with fellow American Sloane Stephens, remembers the time when Gauff's family brought her to his Florida base as a six-year-old.
"I predicted she was the best 10-year-old tennis player in the history of the sport at that moment," Black told Reuters.
"I have seen Martina Hingis, I have seen Jennifer Capriati at 12-years-old but Cori at 10-years-old was, in my mind, the best 10-year-old tennis player to ever play this sport.
"First of all, she had the physical ability, that's the first thing, then her mental toughness was way ahead of her age.
"I have coached many girls at the same age, at that age – between eight and 15-years-old – and Cori's mental ability was just as good as any top 15-year-old girl I have ever seen.
"Everyone knows who she is and she is on target right now, for sure, to become the best tennis player in the world."
Teenager Gauff 'staying calm'published at 11:31 British Summer Time 5 July 2019
Gauff v Hercog
Those heading to SW19 today will be excited to see American teenage sensation Coco Gauff in action this afternoon.
The 15-year-old has won fans with her accomplished straight-set victories over seven-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams and 2017 Wimbledon semi-finalist Magdalena Rybarikova.
She played both of those matches on Court One but her exploits have now earned her a Centre Court billing, and judging by her previous performances it will not faze her.
Asked about the key to her success here, she replied: "I think just me staying calm. A lot of players aren't so calm on the court, even though they've been playing for a long time."
The winner of that match will face 2018 French Open champion Halep or two-time Australian Open champion Azarenka, who meet in an eye-catching encounter just before them.

Felix Auger Aliassime is my pick to win some majors very soon.
He is incredible. He is playing his first Wimbledon but he has a grass court game already, plus he's so professional.

Image source, ReutersCan't see too many breaks of serve coming in this thump-fest between two giants of the game - 21-year-old American Reilly Opelka is a staggering 6'11, apparently, he's the tallest ATP-ranked player ever. Canadian 15th seed Milos Raonic is a rather slight 6'5 in comparison.

Gavin Fowke: There is a bad boy charm to Nick Kyrgios, and that makes him likeable in a way. His behaviour though borders on being rude, and I wonder if he has taken the time to consider his influence on younger people. It's called being responsible, is Nick?
If a player comes to the net to shut down the court and make your shot difficult, are you not within your right to make it difficult for them to by giving them minimal time to adjust? Seems to me Kyrgios did what he had to do to win the point.
Matt, London
I think Kyrgios' problems stem from a serious issue in the Australian grass roots system. The fact they have two hugely talented players in Kyrgios and Tomic who have the two worst attitudes on tour says something about the system that brought them up that way.

Reaction to Nadal v Kyrgios
Boris Becker
Three-time Wimbledon champion on BBC TVNick Kyrgios comes across to me as a rebel without a cause.
He played within the rules, but even if he doesn't mean it [striking Rafael Nadal with the ball] just wave your hand and pretend for a second.
But the second part of the match was tennis - and that's what I was pleased about.
It was about the man Nick against the man Rafa. That's what we want to see. That's what tennis is about.

Image source, ReutersSerena Williams, who survived a scare to reach the third round of the singles yesterday, said she was looking forward to teaming up with Andy Murray and learning from him when they feature together in the mixed doubles on Friday.
"I think Andy is a great player - he is mentally one of the toughest players out there. I don't even know what goes on in his mind," she said.
"It's always interesting to hear what other champions think, how you can apply it to your game. It's only a win-win situation for me. Hopefully it will be for him, as well."

Francesca Gunn: I can see what Nick was talking about. The amount of time Nadal was taking was annoying, and yet the umpire was doing nothing. It shouldn't matter that this is Nadal you can't give him special treatment. But at the same time it is not cool to purposely hurt him
Surely Nick Kyrgios' problem with Nadal is that he can see that Nadal is not necessarily more talented than him...but he's definitely better. I can't imagine thinking about why that might be is very comfortable.
