Georgina (1624) - seriously? We've had years of this with Nadal and Federer - every time they get beaten, 'oh, it must be because they're ill.' So insulting to other players

I'm about 50 miles west of Wimbledon and the rain's started again here, obviously won't affect main courts but I think the other ones probably have about half an hour of play left today

*Alcaraz 5-7 6-2 4-6 4-4 Tiafoe
A big, big hold for Frances Tiafoe who benefits from two very strong serves.
He's only a couple of games away from stunning the defending champ.
Image source, PA MediaWe're waiting on the Brits to feature in the singles today, with Emma Raducanu and Sonay Kartal due to face Maria Sakkai and Coco Gauff respectively later this evening.
In the meantime, we've got eyes on the doubles and there's plenty of good news from a home hope perspective.
Brighton's Julian Cash and American partner Robert Galloway beat French-New Zealand pair Theo Arribage and Marcus Daniell 7-6 (8-6) 6-3 and have booked their spot in the second round.
It was also good news for Briton Henry Patten alongside Finland's Harri Heliovaara, beating all-Spanish duo Pedro Martinez and Jaume Munar 7-6 (7-5) 6-3 to reach round three.
In the women's doubles, Britain's Olivia Nicholls and Slovakian partner Tereza Mihalikova cruised to a 6-2 6-0 victory against American Peyton Stearns and Pole Magda Linette.

Is this Carlos Alcaraz's moment?

Last years Wimbledon semi-finalist and wife of Gael Monfils, Elina Svitolina, has been pretty motionless during this match but gave an encouraging clap of encouragement as he held serve at the start of the third set.
Long way back for the Frenchman here.
Alcaraz 5-7 6-2 4-6 4-3 Tiafoe*
Frances Tiafoe sends over a very wide second serve to double fault and slip to 15-15.
He recovers though with an excellent slice which forces Carlos Alcaraz to produce a long passing attempt. 30-15.

Kenneth: A statue for Andy Murray at Wimbledon would be fantastic for all the joy and tension he brought to the British tennis fans
Alcaraz 5-7 6-2 4-6 4-3 Tiafoe*
Top of his game or not, Georgina, Carlos Alcaraz fires a wide serve which has Frances Tiafoe struggling, and holds to 15.

Georgina: I'm not sure Alcaraz is 100% well. He's using an ice towel on a cool day and lacking his usual energy.

Murray gets a statue… and then Jack Draper wins a few slams, Emma Raducanu wins Wimbledon, a British youngster emerges and knocks Alcaraz/Sinner off the top spot in 2029…… there’d be statues all over the place! Perhaps just leave it with Fred.

Carlos Alcaraz is such a popular player. I'm not saying Frances Tiafoe is unpopular. I think Alcaraz has to got to use the crowd, down two sets to one.
I think he's got to bring a little bit more energy and intensity within his game and then feed off the crowd.
Alcaraz 5-7 6-2 4-6 3-2 Tiafoe*
No drama on Carlos Alcaraz's serve this time around. The third seed holds to love on Centre Court.

Court One erupts into applause for Gael Monfils as the crowd sense he could do with a bit of encouragement.
The Frenchman is struggling to find a way through 10th seed Grigor Dimitrov - who is putting on an absolute clinic at the moment.
“Allez, Gael” shouts a young girl in front of me.
