0:01:30 > 0:01:41his progression continues...What a talent -- Kyle Edmund.It's a big
0:01:41 > 0:01:43win for Kyle Edmund.
0:01:48 > 0:01:57And what a first set this young man...A player or where going to be
0:01:57 > 0:02:01following for the future, no doubt about that. A player we are to be
0:02:01 > 0:02:10following.Kyle Edmund does it for Britain.
0:02:10 > 0:02:21He has found a way to win, which is what it's all about.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25And this young man has really stepped up.

0:02:34 > 0:02:34STUDIO: Kyle Edmund making his mark on this tournament, he has had some
0:02:34 > 0:02:39huge wins on the weight to the fourth round, bust up he beat 11th
0:02:39 > 0:02:43seed and US Open finalist Kevin Anderson in five sets, twice coming
0:02:43 > 0:02:47back from a set down. Then came Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan, who
0:02:47 > 0:02:51caused a huge upset at Melbourne Park last year, beating Novak
0:02:51 > 0:02:58Djokovic. But Edmund dealt with him in straight sets. Then came a ruling
0:02:58 > 0:03:01duel with Nikoloz Basilashvili from Georgia, a mammoth five set match in
0:03:01 > 0:03:07temperatures which rose over 40 degrees. Edmonds said, it's a
0:03:07 > 0:03:10professional sport, it's meant to hurt, it's not meant to be easy. His
0:03:10 > 0:03:14Davis Cup team-mate is frustratingly watching from home as he recovers
0:03:14 > 0:03:25from hip surgery. He tweeted after the third win,...
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Jamie Murray was knocked out in the second round of the doubles
0:03:28 > 0:03:34yesterday and said, so happy for Kyle Edmund, what a fighter. Kyle
0:03:34 > 0:03:40Edmund has some pretty big cheerleaders and I think they will
0:03:40 > 0:03:40be glued to
0:03:40 > 0:03:41cheerleaders and I think they will be glued to this as he takes an
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Andreas Seppi in the fourth round. Seppi has never been further than
0:03:45 > 0:03:53the fourth round of a Grand Slam but has made it this far six times
0:03:56 > 0:03:59previously, Domagoj Vida C.
0:04:05 > 0:04:10He did not have to deal with the scorching heat in the way that
0:04:10 > 0:04:16Edmund did. Well Seppi has the experience, Edmund is favourite to
0:04:16 > 0:04:21win. At the age of 23 he is starting out in his career, add ten years
0:04:21 > 0:04:25older Seppi is coming to the end of his. In his 15 years on the tour,
0:04:25 > 0:04:30the Italian has picked up three titles, Edmund non-so far. The last
0:04:30 > 0:04:35ten Kyle Edmund was in the forefront of a Grand Slam was at the 2016 US
0:04:35 > 0:04:41Open, where he was beaten by Novak Djokovic. -- the last time Kyle
0:04:41 > 0:04:46Edmund was in the fourth round. His fitness will play a huge part, his
0:04:46 > 0:04:50ability to recover from the five setter in the third round in the
0:04:50 > 0:04:54scorching heat two days ago. These two have met only once, when
0:04:54 > 0:05:02Adnan came out on top in the quarterfinals of the
0:05:02 > 0:05:04quarterfinals of the 2016 European in Antwerp, a relatively unknown
0:05:04 > 0:05:07opponent for Edmund but both hoping to make it to the quarterfinals of a
0:05:07 > 0:05:11Grand Slam for the first time. It is on serve as 3-4, with Edmund
0:05:11 > 0:05:18to serve.
0:06:03 > 0:06:09COMMENTATOR: Seppi looking at that sideline.Hit an old ball, I think.
0:06:09 > 0:06:14One fall was very close, but he did not dare to challenge. Very good in
0:06:14 > 0:06:21the rally until this forehand.
0:06:47 > 0:06:56That was a bit better. I acknowledged by Edmund. --
0:06:56 > 0:06:57acknowledged by.
0:07:31 > 0:07:40I am pretty certain that Libby Conroy will be a star attraction at
0:07:40 > 0:07:49the Australian Country Music Awards. You would be right at home.I could
0:07:49 > 0:07:56live here, Gary. I love this country. The only thing is, it is so
0:07:56 > 0:08:03far away from the rest of the world.
0:08:03 > 0:08:08What is your problem?! We reckon that is the best part about it.That
0:08:08 > 0:08:18is quite true. Quite far away from my mother-in-law!
0:08:20 > 0:08:24Knowing her big the Dutch are on family, she would probably come with
0:08:24 > 0:08:34you. -- knowing how big. Oh! What a return!That gets them to
0:08:34 > 0:08:42break points. I don't want to take any credit, but I think he shanked
0:08:42 > 0:08:46it a little bit and has this extra angle to it. All of a sudden, while
0:08:46 > 0:08:52the games were going smoothly for both players, it is a break point to
0:08:52 > 0:09:01be Italian. -- to the Italian.
0:09:24 > 0:09:33Full marks, Edmund. Kept the ball deep. Great patience.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37deep. Great patience.He's hit through it very well. He kind of got
0:09:37 > 0:09:42Seppi off-guard a little bit. Seppi a little late with his preparation.
0:09:42 > 0:09:51He was already hitting ten or 15 balls very solidly.
0:10:10 > 0:10:20He is starting to find his rhythm, isn't he?
0:10:20 > 0:10:24isn't he?It is dangerous with Seppi, once he finds it, the
0:10:24 > 0:10:28precision with which he hit the ground strokes, he can carve up his
0:10:28 > 0:10:34opponents very quickly. All very slowly, based on his last two
0:10:34 > 0:10:40matches.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48Could try to run around and do something extra with the return, but
0:10:48 > 0:10:53it cost him dearly. He will slowly dissect you. If you start picking
0:10:53 > 0:10:59your serve, you need to hit more second shots. That is what he tries
0:10:59 > 0:11:05to do. Not the same style, but like he did against seraph, for example,
0:11:05 > 0:11:14the other day. -- like he did against Zverev.
0:11:25 > 0:11:32He is going to challenge. It is out, all right.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38all right. No greater cause of self implosion for a player on the tennis
0:11:38 > 0:11:44court than frustration. It is out, clearly. You get frustrated, it
0:11:44 > 0:11:49plays with your head, your game goes off. It is self-fulfilling after
0:11:49 > 0:11:55that.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09Some good service, he is mixing it well from the outset, especially the
0:12:09 > 0:12:17first serve. Although Seppi was there, it was just too big, 198, his
0:12:17 > 0:12:27biggest serve of the match.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35Forces break point.
0:13:08 > 0:13:13He shakes out of disbelief, but he never shows that his opponent. He
0:13:13 > 0:13:16never shows it on the other side of the net.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Fourth ace for Edmund.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Oh, dear!
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Self-imposed pressure here now from Edmund with that double fault. Back
0:14:28 > 0:14:37to deuce.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58Fifth chance for Seppi.
0:15:16 > 0:15:30Once again, going out wide, but it is so good, so well struck.
0:15:39 > 0:15:48Two in a row. A bit of a mixed bag on serve as he battles to stave off
0:15:48 > 0:15:57the brake.
0:15:57 > 0:16:03the brake. -- break. Which he does. An unreturnable serve. That is an
0:16:03 > 0:16:08effort. Well done.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11effort. Well done. STUDIO: A gruelling set of tennis continued to
0:16:11 > 0:16:16go with serve and a 5-6, Edmund called for a medical time-out to
0:16:16 > 0:16:21receive treatment on his shoulder. Despite this, the Brit took the
0:16:21 > 0:16:31opening set to tie-break, where we pick up the action.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51COMMENTATOR: Found it.
0:17:27 > 0:17:35A big serve, short reply.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37You can clearly see that Edmund wants to finish the rallies as
0:18:37 > 0:18:47quickly as he can. He is trying to T off, hitting the ball at least ten
0:18:47 > 0:18:56or 15 Ks harder in the rally.
0:19:13 > 0:19:19Seppi having to rely on second serve. But it stands him in good
0:19:19 > 0:19:25stead.
0:19:51 > 0:19:59The depth on the second serve was fantastic. It was only 145 kph.
0:19:59 > 0:20:10Changing ends, gains on serve in the tie-break, first set. Edmund hitting
0:20:10 > 0:20:17hard. One medical time-out for the right shoulder. Seems to be serving
0:20:17 > 0:20:22and hitting beforehand without ill effect at the moment. -- hitting the
0:20:22 > 0:20:28forehand.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Shadow over three quarters of the court now. Edmund serving out of the
0:20:53 > 0:21:00shade, into the sunshine.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20CROWD: Come on, Kyle!
0:21:58 > 0:22:05COMMENTATOR:He is going for it a little bit too much. Three shots
0:22:05 > 0:22:09where he wants to go down the line coming he is a little off and misses
0:22:09 > 0:22:14it by ten and 15 centimetres. Then the pressure is really on. But it
0:22:14 > 0:22:25has been on for the entire set. Kyle Edmund is dealt with it very well.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Seppi finally got to the point where he thinks that he is going to go out
0:22:36 > 0:22:43wide, most likely. Stood there, waited for a long time and then
0:22:43 > 0:22:47threw his body weight out wide to try to get to return.Set point of
0:22:47 > 0:22:53the Italian player.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Unerring accuracy off the ground from Andreas Seppi clinches the
0:23:12 > 0:23:17first set in the tie-breaker over Kyle Edmund, 7-4, the tie-break
0:23:17 > 0:23:25score. STUDIO: Seppi takes the opening set, and his good form
0:23:25 > 0:23:30continued as he went up an early break in the second. We rejoin with
0:23:30 > 0:23:37the Italian serving at 1-2. COMMENTATOR:Edmund was the clear
0:23:37 > 0:23:45favourite going into this match. Now it has swapped. A set and a break
0:23:45 > 0:23:51and new balls to play with.The predictor has swung Seppi's way at
0:23:51 > 0:23:59the medical time-out for Edmund.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08And the swing in Seppi's favour was even more marked when he closed out
0:24:08 > 0:24:10the first set.
0:24:33 > 0:24:41Once again, 0-30. Two games in a row.
0:24:41 > 0:24:50From this perspective, it would be so big to break back straightaway.
0:25:20 > 0:25:30Seppi came off second best in that extended baseline exchange.
0:25:34 > 0:25:42Three break back chances for Edmund.
0:26:20 > 0:26:26Two saved.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31Our late match at Melbourne Park will be the night-time encounter on
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Rod Laver arena between Grigor Dimitrov and Australia's Nick
0:26:33 > 0:26:38Kyrgios. The winner of that will meet the
0:26:38 > 0:26:41winner of this in the quarterfinals.
0:27:06 > 0:27:15Oh! Can you believe it?! It was first for the taking.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27-- it was there for the taking.What unbelievable running Seppi did. To
0:27:27 > 0:27:34throw up such a controlled lob so deep in the court. It is only the
0:27:34 > 0:27:38second or third time we have seen a smash coming from the baseline from
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Edmund, which he just completely misses.
0:27:45 > 0:27:52Oh, he has missed! The forehand, just wide.
0:27:58 > 0:28:05Fourth chance for Edmund.
0:28:19 > 0:28:28Breaks back. Sounds like a song title. Two games all in the second.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32STUDIO: The second set continued on serve, we jump ahead to the latter
0:28:32 > 0:28:41stages. COMMENTATOR:I told you earlier this week that I played a
0:28:41 > 0:28:44match in 95, they cracked and you knew egg on the floor to show how
0:28:44 > 0:28:54hot it was. It was the biggest fried egg I have ever seen in my life.
0:29:05 > 0:29:10The ball kids have to run, now and then, otherwise their feet would get
0:29:10 > 0:29:17stuck to the surface. Greats.
0:29:19 > 0:29:25If you have a chance, look at where the ball kids are standing, close to
0:29:25 > 0:29:30the net or in the back. They are standing on square patches. It is
0:29:30 > 0:29:37not without a reason.
0:29:45 > 0:29:54A stinging return from a 133 kph second serve. 0-30. Two points away
0:29:54 > 0:30:00from the set, potentially, for Edmund.
0:30:05 > 0:30:11He was their committee had the racket against the ball. -- he was
0:30:11 > 0:30:18there, he had the racket against the ball.
0:30:28 > 0:30:38That was a gutsy second serve.It landed right on the line.
0:31:00 > 0:31:09CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Solid at the net, Edmund.
0:31:09 > 0:31:16Set point for him.
0:31:26 > 0:31:40CHEERING AND APPLAUSE He yells like, fantastic, yes!
0:31:41 > 0:31:46It's so fanatic when you play in Italy against a Frittelli -- and
0:31:46 > 0:31:54Italian. Oh, they help their countrymen.
0:31:54 > 0:32:01APPLAUSE Centre Court at the Italian Open,
0:32:01 > 0:32:17it's a bit like a pulpit! -- a ball hit. Second set point. Edmund.
0:32:22 > 0:32:32Oh... Edmund takes the second serve, 7-5, it's one set all.
0:32:55 > 0:33:03UMPIRE:Third set, Edmund to serve. Third set, here we go.
0:33:29 > 0:33:36A bit heavy on the approach.You feel that also Seppi was a bit more
0:33:36 > 0:33:40aggressive on the baseline in the first set, paired to the second set.
0:33:40 > 0:33:45It felt like his shots were a little harder, a bit more pressing --
0:33:45 > 0:33:50compared to the second set.Is Edmund was fuelling the shoulder at
0:33:50 > 0:33:53that point, he wasn't quite hitting with the same power and depth as he
0:33:53 > 0:33:55is now.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12For a man in the Australian vernacular with a crook shoulder, I
0:34:12 > 0:34:17think he's not doing too badly, only two double faults, has missed a
0:34:17 > 0:34:28couple of forehands here. He seems to be travelling pretty well.
0:34:39 > 0:34:53Oh... Just out!It's the third time he doesn't put a smash away.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20APPLAUSE
0:35:26 > 0:35:31The danger for Seppi here, as it was in the previous set with the break
0:35:31 > 0:35:35of serve each way, Edmund is serving first. And serving the way he is she
0:35:35 > 0:35:46might be a hard man for Seppi to break in this third set.
0:35:54 > 0:36:00Second serve ace, 168 K, straight down the tea, seals the opening game
0:36:00 > 0:36:08of the third set for Edmund.
0:36:19 > 0:36:24Nice swing back, still a slight, slight advantage to Seppi to win
0:36:24 > 0:36:32this match. Which was actually funny, because we still think
0:36:32 > 0:36:36Edmund, you know, was the favourite before the match at one set all. He
0:36:36 > 0:36:48is at 1-0. Why would it be closer than before?
0:36:49 > 0:36:57That's unpredictable.
0:37:07 > 0:37:13The bottom line is, as far as that was concerned, you are arguing with
0:37:13 > 0:37:23a computer on this, there's no future in that.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27Well, it's the computer together I think with very smart people who set
0:37:27 > 0:37:31the odds for people who obviously want to bet on tennis, just like any
0:37:31 > 0:37:38other sport.
0:37:40 > 0:37:46I think also, the thing is, you don't mind putting in a bet here and
0:37:46 > 0:37:56there. First its horse racing, then it's soccer. On a worldwide level...
0:37:56 > 0:38:01I think these are the top three sports that are being betted on.On
0:38:01 > 0:38:03a worldwide level, yes.
0:38:22 > 0:38:27Good tennis. I feel that Seppi is just not strong enough from the
0:38:27 > 0:38:31baseline. I really feel that in the first set he was hitting the ball a
0:38:31 > 0:38:34little bit harder, and also a little bit deeper. We were right in the
0:38:34 > 0:38:41corner every time. And at this moment it's more Edmund who has the
0:38:41 > 0:38:51power.Seppi more on the back foot. 15-40.
0:38:56 > 0:39:02CHEERING Second serve return catches the line
0:39:02 > 0:39:11and gives the break to Edmund. Edmund had the best of five matches.
0:39:11 > 0:39:16Obviously the last one to Seppi. Maybe this is something between the
0:39:16 > 0:39:2223-year-old and the 33-year-old.A ten year age difference, yes.It has
0:39:22 > 0:39:26also been tough for Seppi to play like this. This kid, the
0:39:26 > 0:39:3323-year-old, they have plenty of energy in the tank. They are just
0:39:33 > 0:39:38throwing with it.Well, Seppi certainly had the tougher of the
0:39:38 > 0:39:46five set matches, and they were back-to-back matches.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56UMPIRE:Mr Seppi is challenging the call on the right service line. The
0:39:56 > 0:40:03ball is called in.He played Yuichi Sugita of Japan in the second round.
0:40:03 > 0:40:10And then Ivo Karlovic in the third round. 12-10 in the fifth against
0:40:10 > 0:40:18Sugita, 9-7 in the fifth against Karlovic.
0:41:50 > 0:41:58CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:42:12 > 0:42:18STUDIO: After a rocky start, Edmund in control of the match. Could he
0:42:18 > 0:42:22see the third set out? We picked up the action at 5-2 with the Italian
0:42:22 > 0:42:23serving.
0:43:03 > 0:43:13Five shots ready. Return back. Is it there? Edmund has a full swing on
0:43:13 > 0:43:14the next.
0:43:38 > 0:43:46APPLAUSE Dave Grohl the only thing you can do
0:43:46 > 0:43:53against this is sit deep -- the only thing that you can do.And that's
0:43:53 > 0:44:06what Seppi did. His wife, Michaela. And his coach.
0:44:42 > 0:44:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Just like that. A couple of break
0:44:49 > 0:44:59points. Easily dealt with by Edmund. 6-2, he leads to- one. -- he leads
0:44:59 > 0:45:06by 2-1. STUDIO: Cole Edmund now just one set
0:45:06 > 0:45:09away from a first Grand Slam quarterfinal -- Kyle Edmund. The
0:45:09 > 0:45:14opening exchanges of the fourth set went with serve. We rejoin the match
0:45:14 > 0:45:21at 4-3.
0:45:43 > 0:45:49COMMENTATOR: No, no, note... The right idea.
0:45:50 > 0:45:53right idea. Three or four centimetres wide.A great shot from
0:45:53 > 0:45:58Kyle, completely out of position. His back towards the net. He saw
0:45:58 > 0:46:08from the corner of his eyes that Seppi was making his move.
0:46:18 > 0:46:22And the heavy forehand brings the error from Seppi. It is 0-30 from
0:46:22 > 0:46:28the Italian.
0:47:02 > 0:47:06Yes, he left that corner open a little bit too much. He was hoping
0:47:06 > 0:47:11to be able to run around and really tea off an the forehand.Seppi was
0:47:11 > 0:47:19right up on the baseline, too.
0:47:37 > 0:47:42Oh, Wow!Well, you should have challenged. That ball was right on
0:47:42 > 0:47:51the baseline.That one?Yes, but also you can see from this angle
0:47:51 > 0:47:55what a great forehand winner it actually is. He doesn't have much to
0:47:55 > 0:48:00work with, but it's the right speed, the right angle, another two break
0:48:00 > 0:48:08points for Kyle Edmund to go up 5-3 to be able to serve for the match.
0:48:08 > 0:48:13Their routers again, the wide, swinging serve, no power on it --
0:48:13 > 0:48:16there it is again. Edmund stretching, just couldn't quite make
0:48:16 > 0:48:24the return. Still a break point.
0:48:38 > 0:48:46CHEERING AND APPLAUSE That the break. The 5-3 lead, and
0:48:46 > 0:49:00serve to follow for Edmund. The match is on his racket now.
0:49:04 > 0:49:09Look at him, look at the way he's looking around the court. He's
0:49:09 > 0:49:21pumped, he's confident. Trying to catch his breath. Point by point.
0:49:23 > 0:49:34CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Classic.
0:49:44 > 0:49:5325th ace of the match.
0:50:27 > 0:50:37Hasn't been able to get inside the baseline for too many of those.
0:51:06 > 0:51:12There's this huge forehand crosscourt! More than Seppi could
0:51:12 > 0:51:21handle. Brings up match for Kyle Edmund.
0:51:35 > 0:51:37CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:51:46 > 0:51:51Three minutes short of three hours, Kyle Edmund, after hardly getting a
0:51:51 > 0:51:58look in in the first set, although games went with serve to the
0:51:58 > 0:52:04tie-break, Seppi took the break, 7-4. Injury time out in the course
0:52:04 > 0:52:11of that set, but 6-5 for a shoulder for Edmund did wonders, and he's
0:52:11 > 0:52:18hardly looked back since then.
0:52:28 > 0:52:30First of all, congratulations for your first-ever Grand Slam
0:52:30 > 0:52:37quarterfinal, it must be a great feeling.Yes. You, it's good, it's a
0:52:37 > 0:52:42good feeling. But, yeah, it was a really interesting match.
0:52:42 > 0:52:44good feeling. But, yeah, it was a really interesting match. Although
0:52:44 > 0:52:48it was quite a close first set, I didn't feel I got off to the best
0:52:48 > 0:52:51start, he was hitting the ball very clean and dictating a lot of points,
0:52:51 > 0:52:56in the second set I had to try and shift the momentum, but I felt that
0:52:56 > 0:53:02once I almost broke him in the last game and second set, I really took
0:53:02 > 0:53:07control and won the match.It is the first time in a tournament you have
0:53:07 > 0:53:12won 25 set game. You should have thought, surely not another one!He
0:53:12 > 0:53:18plays very well, he has reached the fourth round quite a few times. He
0:53:18 > 0:53:23has had 25 set matches against Nick and won a five set match against
0:53:23 > 0:53:28Karlovic, he is playing very well. But so was I. I have won two five
0:53:28 > 0:53:35set matches. Through the my first quarterfinal, I'm very happy.Now,
0:53:35 > 0:53:39tell us, because, you know, proud nation, we like to put a little bit
0:53:39 > 0:53:43of pressure on our players. No Andy Murray, you have the weight of the
0:53:43 > 0:53:49nation on your shoulders, how does that feel? We know what it's like!
0:53:49 > 0:53:56Yes, I get that! But, yeah, I mean it's more of a shame that Andy's not
0:53:56 > 0:54:01here. I keep on saying that, you know. You play for your nation, but
0:54:01 > 0:54:06you are here playing for yourself, nothing changes in terms of, you
0:54:06 > 0:54:10know, your preparations and process. But hopefully we have more British
0:54:10 > 0:54:14here in the future. So, yeah, for me personally I'm very happy to get
0:54:14 > 0:54:19through it and keep doing my best. I know people at home are waking up at
0:54:19 > 0:54:22silly hours of the morning, so I'm grateful for that.
0:54:22 > 0:54:26STUDIO: It is a first Grand Slam quarterfinal for Kyle Edmund. He
0:54:26 > 0:54:30seems to get stronger and stronger as he closed in on that win,
0:54:30 > 0:54:32dropping the first set but finding the energy in the cooler conditions
0:54:32 > 0:54:38to finish it off. His new coach, Fredrik Rosengren of by the side of
0:54:38 > 0:54:46court seemed to give him confidence. It is a breakthrough victory, 6-7,
0:54:46 > 0:54:507-5, 6-2, 6-3. Edmund will play world number three Grigor Dimitrov.
0:54:50 > 0:54:53He came through a match with many twists and turns against home
0:54:53 > 0:54:59favourite Nick Kyrgios, winning the first two sets, but Kyrgios produced
0:54:59 > 0:55:01explosive tennis to win the third, Dimitrov eventually coming through
0:55:01 > 0:55:06in a fourth set tie-break. Grigor Dimitrov lies in wait for Kyle
0:55:06 > 0:55:10Edmund in the next round. No red pink and court, given the choices of
0:55:10 > 0:55:14kit for both players this year it will be a feast for the senses I'm
0:55:14 > 0:55:19sure -- lurid thing. We will have highlights of that one on Tuesday
0:55:19 > 0:55:20here on BBC Two.
