    It's not quite a full house on Centre Court, which holds almost 15,000, a few have just even decided to head for the exit between games.

    Surely just for refreshments? You can't leave a match when it's this tense with a top British hope battling to stay in.

    Jack Draper wins three points in a row - 0-40 - and he gets the crowd going with a fist pump.

    And he gets the break! Is that the turning point?

    Another hold of serve for Jack Draper gets a warm reception.

    A change of ends and both players use the chance to chow down on a banana.

    Wise call, we could be here for a while longer at this rate.

    The physio has come out to stretch the legs of Facundo Diaz Acosta.

    He's taking a medical time out while Cameron Norrie practises some breathing.

    Been wondering how Andy Murray’s supposed-to-be opponent Tomas Machac is getting on?

    The Czech was scheduled to take on Murray on Centre Court this evening, but after the Scot’s withdrawal Machac is playing on court eight instead.

    So far, so good. He has won the first set against lucky loser David Goffin of Belgium.

    Elias Ymer is undeterred after letting that first game of the final set pass him by.

    The Swede holds to 15.

    There's something special about Centre Court with the roof closed. The sound of the ball echoes as it crashes of the racquet at either end.

    It also sounds like there's an extra couple of thousand in the crowd.

    Wayyyyy! The lights finally come on and the fans greet it with an enthusiastic cheer.

    Both players might have been tempted to join in. After another quick warm-up, the deciding set is under way.

    Earlier I spoke about this match feeling like a passing of the baton from Andy Murray to Jack Draper.

    So, of course, it was going to finish indoors.

    Draper under the lights!

    Absolutely what the doctor ordered.

    Draper had lost all momentum in the fourth – strong service game.

    Jack Draper makes a positive start to the fifth set as he holds to love.

    The Brit has only gone five sets on two previous occasions, winning one and losing one.

    Elias Ymer has won two of his three previous five-setters.

    Neither of them have even gone the distance at Wimbledon.

    A group of young men adapted Coldplay’s ‘Yellow’ to fit ‘Norrie’ into it. The whole of court three was laughing, though Norrie managed to keep a straight face.

    Even his team were laughing!

    Ons Jabeur wins on court 14

    There was no way of me getting onto court 14 to see Ons Jabeur in action - look at those queues!

    Instead, I came up to the media balcony for a birds-eye view.

    And I made it just in time to see the Tunisian 10th seed wrap up a 6-3 6-1 win over Japan’s Moyuka Uchijima.

    Jabeur is surrounded by fans singing “allez, allez, Ons, allez” as she walks off the court and everyone is desperate to get a photo.

    We are getting there slowly but surely.

    Jack Draper and Elias Ymer have been given the opportunity to warm-up before this deciding set gets going.

    Three-time Wimbledon singles champion John McEnroe is providing commentary on the BBC One broadcast and he's not too happy about that.

    "It's only like they've been off for a bathroom break," says the American.

    Anyway, we are back under way.

    Well, this could be over very quickly; Norrie hoping to finish before the light fades.

    During the break, fans serade Cameron Norrie to the tune of Coldplay's Yellow.

    A shank from Facundo Diaz Acosta flies into the crowd and a man in a green jumper rises to take it perfectly. England could’ve done with him out in Barbados last week!

    Diaz Acosta gives him a nod of approval.

    Both players are stood up and pacing around the court.

    The roof is closed.

    But there is a problem.

    Someone hasn't yet flicked the switch for the floodlights.

    Come on Wimbers, chuck a few quid in the leccy meter.

  15. A good catch on court threepublished at 20:36 British Summer Time 2 July

    Facundo Diaz Acosta gives a thumbs up to a member of the crowd who caught his wayward shot.

    The light may be fading on both the court and his time at Wimbledon but he seems to be enjoying the occasion.

  16. Norrie holds to accelerate advantagepublished at 20:31 British Summer Time 2 July

    Norrie 7-5 7-5 2-0 Diaz Acosta*

    Another hold from Cam Norrie. You can see why he got to the semi-finals in 2022.

    He incorrectly challenged but it doesn't matter, his solid serving is proving the difference.

    Tournament referee Denise Parnell, wearing a lovely sky-blue power suit, strides out of the wings within seconds of Ymer taking this contest to a decider.

    That means only one thing: the roof is being called into action.

  18. Norrie breaks early in third setpublished at 20:28 British Summer Time 2 July

    *Norrie 7-5 7-5 1-0 Diaz Acosta

    Cam Norrie volleys from close range to take the break and there's huge applause from court three.

    Some generally poor placement from Facundo Diaz Acosta gave Norrie the chance and he took it.

  19. Game and fourth set - Ymerpublished at 20:28 British Summer Time 2 July

    *Draper 3-6 6-3 6-3 4-6 Ymer

    There's a lot of support around Centre Court for Sweden's Elias Ymer, despite the fact that he's up against the British number one.

    He has advantage and a fair number in attendance make their voices heard.

    Ymer holds.

    We are going to a deciding set.

    *Draper 3-6 6-3 6-3 4-5 Ymer

    Jack Draper is facing the prospect of going into a deciding set if he doesn't break back immediately.

    He clearly knows that and responds in impressive fashion to lead 40-0 and has three attempts to break.

    Elias Ymer digs out an ace. Two attempts at break remain for Draper.

    Draper fires long. One attempt left at break.

    Another ace for Ymer and it's deuce.
