| rlMonday order of playrl
Last 16. Potentially some cracking matches today, both men and women.
Murray is 3rd up on Centre again, vs Wawrinka. Stan is no mug, and is reigning Olympic doubles champion with Federer. Andy usually has his number....

That's a suprise! Although on the plus side, it does mean the BBC will be able to show his match as people are arriving home from work. Amazing coincidence don't you think?
Just moving that on further, there was talk on 5Live on Saturday about the scheduling of matches, especially in the womens game where some of the top seeds hadn't even made it to number 1 court, never mind centre. However, games featuring 2 leggy blond teenagers had miraculously found their way onto Centre Court. Now, I'm not complaining, but I do feel the likes of Safina can feel rather hard done to. "

| The Williams sisters blitz their way into the last 8, especially Venus who was giving Ana Ivanovic such a thumping she decided she was injured and packed in. She and Jankovic seem very brittle mentally, and they're always calling the trainer out, at critical times. Allegedly.
Federer seems to be doing just enough to beat Soderling. He's won 2 sets (just) and approaching crunch time in the third.

| 1 tie-break each for Verdasco and Karlovic. Quelle surprise.
Please knock him out, Fernando.
Hewitt looks like he's going. Djokovic looks like he's staying.

It's now stopped raining but apparently once the decision has been taken to close the roof, it has to stay shut until the match in progress has completed. Assuming it is still dry, the roof can then be opened for the next match - Murray.
Safina vs Mauresmo in play. Sounds a bit echoey to me.

Yep, i assume they will re-open it for Murray, unless they feel light may become an issue.

| Djokovic wins but Hewitt is on the way back - Stepanek has blown up.
Meanwhile yet another tie-break for Karlovic. 2@.
Sure enough Karlovic bores Verdasco to defeat, with just the 35 aces.

| Murray immediately drops his serve in the first game.
They've kept the roof closed.

| I hope Murray gets beat, i have hated all of this Murray hype over the last few weeks. Was reading a column about British sport and that hardly any Brit puts as much effort in as Murray in any sport according to(i think Andy Dunn.) I love playing tennis but would never go and watch it due to the amount of complete numpties who go.
