:00:15. > :00:22.The grace of Federer, the power of Del Potro, devouring his prey like

:00:22. > :00:32.Djokovic. He is back in Wimbledon after a traumatic weekend and... He

:00:32. > :00:38.

:00:38. > :00:41.The last 16, nearly all the big names are still there plus one or

:00:41. > :00:51.two surprise packages. Every player wants to make the second week of a

:00:51. > :00:57.

:00:57. > :01:01.Grand Slam and now it is getting Except it has been raining, and

:01:01. > :01:04.irritating sort of rain. The monsoon would have been more

:01:04. > :01:12.satisfying but instead it has been a drizzle which has left some of

:01:12. > :01:18.the big matches up in the air. That's why we are indoors. Tracey,

:01:18. > :01:25.we are protected from the elements. The other reason is that Rufus the

:01:25. > :01:31.Hawk did 10 seconds after we filmed earlier, did what other birds do

:01:31. > :01:34.all over the sofa. Oh, that beautiful sofa! It is less

:01:34. > :01:39.beautiful than it was. But we've had the cleaners on and hopefully

:01:39. > :01:43.by tomorrow night, it will be restored to its former glory. We

:01:43. > :01:49.are indoors and we are going to start with Andy Murray because he

:01:49. > :01:55.was, after a very, very long night on Saturday, and on Court One and

:01:55. > :02:01.he doesn't have the protection of the roof. His opponent was Marin

:02:01. > :02:08.Cillic of Croatia, one half of the second longest match never to take

:02:08. > :02:18.place at Wimbledon. As is always the way when Murray plays Terris --

:02:18. > :02:40.

:02:40. > :02:50.when Andy Murray plays tennis, he That is his go to shot, isn't it?

:02:50. > :03:13.

:03:13. > :03:23.When in doubt, go to the Cilic Not a good defensive return. Cilic

:03:23. > :03:40.

:03:40. > :03:45.Getting around but not quite A couple of errors. That went down

:03:45. > :03:50.the middle and again, very effective. He could have taken a

:03:50. > :03:54.couple of steps back on that ball and hit a normal ground stroke. He

:03:54. > :04:04.didn't need to half volley that one. He has put himself in a bit of

:04:04. > :04:04.

:04:04. > :04:52.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:04:52. > :04:59.The real pressure shot was really the approach because he didn't work

:04:59. > :05:09.-- he did well enough. That was pure reflexes. He wasn't sure where

:05:09. > :05:09.

:05:09. > :06:29.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:06:29. > :06:39.A good start for Andy Murray and Missed it! He doesn't like it in

:06:39. > :07:18.

:07:18. > :07:28.the front court. He should've known Great return! Now is the time

:07:28. > :08:06.

:08:06. > :08:10.perhaps for Murray. The three set A final shot at the end of that

:08:10. > :08:15.first set from a man who was perhaps tired from the weekend.

:08:15. > :08:25.Andy Murray, one to the good. Here we are, early in the second set. It

:08:25. > :08:34.

:08:34. > :08:41.is going with serve. Cilic now It is odd, isn't it? It can look so

:08:41. > :08:51.spectacular. But he is still making errors. He doesn't look like he's

:08:51. > :09:12.

:09:12. > :09:17.A fabulous return, that is. You don't see it that often and he took

:09:17. > :09:27.it so early. He changed direction. You can see the first step again

:09:27. > :09:51.

:09:51. > :09:57.from Cilic. Very laboured to get It hovered for a split second.

:09:57. > :10:07.was an unforced error. Now he has to get his opponent moving. That

:10:07. > :10:07.

:10:07. > :11:31.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:11:31. > :11:41.Again, phenomenal speed! But Cilic was just calm enough. That was a

:11:41. > :11:41.

:11:41. > :12:55.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:12:55. > :13:01.He was giving church no time to Just out! Is he going to challenge?

:13:01. > :13:11.He is challenging it. Andy Murray looks pretty confident that it was

:13:11. > :13:13.

:13:13. > :13:23.It was a slight Miss Hit which means there was some doubt put out

:13:23. > :13:31.

:13:31. > :13:37.it was. And now, Andy Murray does It slackened off because the rain

:13:37. > :13:40.came. That was the last ball hit him in a stand that was Andy Murray

:13:40. > :13:49.leaving Wimbledon a few moments ago, checking out with the security guys.

:13:49. > :13:54.He will return tomorrow at midday John McEnroe has joined us. What

:13:54. > :14:00.did you make of it today? I didn't make a whole lot of it because have

:14:00. > :14:08.got to be honest, he was running out of fuel. He doesn't have

:14:08. > :14:12.anything left. He started well. It was an incredible effort for Marin

:14:13. > :14:19.Cillic the other night but that takes a major toll. He got a great

:14:19. > :14:23.start. He got the early break but reality set in. Obviously, it helps

:14:23. > :14:28.him quite a bit because maybe the legs will come back. He is in a

:14:28. > :14:33.heap of trouble anyway but that went from a one in 50 shot to a one

:14:33. > :14:39.in 20 shot. The likelihood is he will lose the set -- the second set.

:14:39. > :14:42.He is a breakdown. He will get something back tomorrow. That will

:14:42. > :14:47.benefit him, give him a slightly better chance. What did you think

:14:47. > :14:54.before the game behind -- began? Both Cilic and Andy Murray may have

:14:54. > :15:00.been tired after Saturday night. was wonderful. I think it is Cilic

:15:00. > :15:08.who is more physically tired. It was like he played seven secs. It

:15:08. > :15:12.was tough for him. I was glad to see that Andy had better shorts!

:15:12. > :15:22.No-ball malfunctions today, for anybody who cares about this.

:15:22. > :15:22.

:15:22. > :15:31.just choose one ball, like Pete Sampras! But that was awesome. It

:15:32. > :15:36.was spectacular, it was perfect for Mary. Then fate did the fair thing,

:15:36. > :15:45.they played him on Court One. Why was not Andy Murray on Centre

:15:45. > :15:49.Court? They felt morally obliged to try and level things up a bit.

:15:49. > :15:56.shouldn't it be in his favour? Because we of British and we would

:15:56. > :16:04.like him to win through the hardest possible route. You are so fair!

:16:04. > :16:11.let's move on to Federer. Here he is for the 10th year in a row in

:16:11. > :16:17.They were one or two hiccups but Federer played some amazing tennis

:16:17. > :16:22.today. He did play amazing tennis but he called a trainer, which have

:16:23. > :16:30.never seen. That is automatically cause for concern. There was

:16:30. > :16:33.trouble brewing potentially but, as he often does, he stepped it up and

:16:33. > :16:37.started to run away with things. The part that I worry about, he

:16:37. > :16:47.still doesn't look quite like the Roger Federer that we've come to

:16:47. > :16:48.

:16:48. > :16:52.know and love her. He the movement between him and Djokovic is pretty

:16:52. > :16:55.significant right now. If that back is an issue, it is hard to manage -

:16:55. > :17:00.- imagine that he could pull off an upset. Federer has always said that,

:17:00. > :17:04.the great reasons for his success has been he has been very lucky not

:17:04. > :17:07.to have many injuries. His body has been kind to him and he has managed

:17:07. > :17:10.his scheduling make sure he doesn't put himself under enormous pressure.

:17:10. > :17:15.But maybe, is there a residual problem fair that he has been

:17:15. > :17:20.keeping from us? He has struggled with his back this year. After the

:17:20. > :17:24.Australian Open, he struggled. He struggled in Madrid as well. There

:17:24. > :17:28.were a few times when you could see he was more stiff than usual. It is

:17:28. > :17:32.tough but he has said that it has worked its way out also because

:17:32. > :17:36.very cold today. He has played more matches than the other top players

:17:36. > :17:41.since the US Open. That is a problem. It catches up with you at

:17:41. > :17:48.30 years of age. He wants that one -- number-one ranking back that

:17:48. > :17:51.Sampras had. Just a couple more weeks to break his record. They

:17:52. > :17:57.quick word about Djokovic. That was the perfect match for him, against

:17:57. > :18:01.a good made by somebody who he knew he was going to beat and he did.

:18:01. > :18:05.This was scarily good. He has beaten 11 times in a row but this

:18:05. > :18:08.was just what the doctor ordered. He looked unbeatable. Of course, as

:18:08. > :18:13.we know, because no doubt went off and played that match and lost it.

:18:13. > :18:19.Anything can happen. But this is going to be of concern for all the

:18:19. > :18:23.players left in the draw. He is already in the quarter-finals. He

:18:23. > :18:27.served at 75 % for the match. We know he has the best return in the

:18:27. > :18:31.game. This was never a match. This was no stress whatsoever. They week

:18:31. > :18:34.ago today, on a first night, we were talking about a hangover they

:18:34. > :18:38.might have been for Djokovic, having lost to the French Open

:18:39. > :18:45.final and lost the opportunity of that place immortality. Has that

:18:45. > :18:51.hangover gone now? It seems like it has. He is not under the same level

:18:51. > :18:54.of stress that he was at the French Open, where he was trying to equal

:18:54. > :19:01.another tennis player. He is in a situation where he is more

:19:01. > :19:10.comfortable. I think it has really helped him. Here we are with a week

:19:10. > :19:15.to go. He was in the best shape? For me it is Djokovic. I think he

:19:15. > :19:19.is, as John said, moving so well now. He has put himself right up

:19:19. > :19:24.there. He is serving bigger, hitting big. He has got through the

:19:24. > :19:34.first week and is through the court has tonight. He is looking tough to

:19:34. > :19:37.beat. He is my pick. The first time I've switched midstream. I have

:19:37. > :19:43.switched from Federer to Djokovic. The difference in the movement is

:19:43. > :19:47.so significant right now. And of course the back issue now as well.

:19:47. > :19:53.There is still some tennis to be played but he will be tough to beat.

:19:53. > :20:03.Let's move on to the women's draw. The first match is a repeat of last

:20:03. > :20:03.

:20:03. > :20:44.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:20:44. > :20:49.Here they were again with the top On the line! She hunted it down.

:20:49. > :20:59.That was the best short forehand of the day from Sharapova, sprinting

:20:59. > :20:59.

:20:59. > :22:41.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:22:41. > :22:51.If the gruntometer was out, it Very, very impressive, at the point

:22:51. > :22:53.

:22:53. > :22:59.Once again, the mark of a real champion, of the mark of someone

:22:59. > :23:07.who thinks this might be her year at Wimbledon. In this 9th game, it

:23:07. > :23:15.wasn't a question of Lisicki playing poorly, it was a question

:23:15. > :23:19.of Sharapova or elevating her play when she needed to. I read a lovely

:23:19. > :23:23.piece the other day describing her on the court, dressed in white in

:23:24. > :23:29.particular, talking about how balletic she can be. She has a

:23:29. > :23:34.combination of power and ballet. She was likened to the White Swan

:23:35. > :23:41.in Swan Lake. She moves around with such grace. It is an area of her

:23:41. > :23:46.game which has improved. She used to be gangly but there is an

:23:46. > :23:56.elegance about the way she plays these days. Moving much better and

:23:56. > :23:56.

:23:56. > :25:46.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:25:46. > :25:56.that is a critical reason why she A very high quality first set. It

:25:56. > :25:56.

:25:56. > :29:02.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:29:02. > :29:12.is getting better with each game The life of a coach. It is always

:29:12. > :29:12.

:29:12. > :29:56.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:29:56. > :30:06.How about that?! How much better to The top seed in a great deal of

:30:06. > :30:13.

:30:13. > :30:23.As we move into the second set, Lisicki is one game to the good and

:30:23. > :30:41.

:30:41. > :30:45.Sabine Lisicki has come out inspired after the rain delay.

:30:45. > :30:52.that is the type of play and we saw from her to get up 5-2 in that

:30:52. > :31:02.first set, really trying to dictate with the forehand especially, hard

:31:02. > :31:24.

:31:24. > :31:34.Her second double fault of the day. The first came at a very critical

:31:34. > :31:34.

:31:34. > :32:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:32:33. > :32:43.Since the resumption we have had seven points. Maria Sharapova has

:32:43. > :33:10.

:33:10. > :33:20.The top seed, many people's Studio from which there was no

:33:20. > :33:21.

:33:21. > :33:27.digging herself out. Here we are People often say, I just came here

:33:27. > :33:32.and did my job. Fantastic to see somebody energise and just draw the

:33:32. > :33:38.full at the moment of triumph. Fantastic. Soak Sabine Lisicki is

:33:38. > :33:42.through to the quarterfinals. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

:33:42. > :33:49.You have not the number one seed out of Wimbledon. I could not tell

:33:49. > :33:54.whether you were laughing or crying. I think there's at the same time! -

:33:54. > :33:58.- I think both at the same time. For the third time I have beaten

:33:58. > :34:04.the French Open champion here so I am just so happy. I have lost the

:34:04. > :34:09.three previous meetings against her and now I just played well and a

:34:09. > :34:14.won for the first time. How did you make sure you did not lose his

:34:14. > :34:21.meeting with Maria? I just went for my shots. From the first point on,

:34:21. > :34:27.I love playing out there. I love it here. And he did not let your guard

:34:27. > :34:31.down, because you cannot do that with Maria? Of course. But I am a

:34:31. > :34:36.fighter, too. I fight until the last point. The last game was tough

:34:36. > :34:42.but I fought it out so I am happy. She mentioned the crowd. It was

:34:42. > :34:46.interesting watching it. I was very surprised that the crowd was so

:34:46. > :34:52.partisan, so much on her side against Sharapova. She gives so

:34:52. > :34:55.much to the crowd. She is intense when she is playing. One time she

:34:55. > :35:02.challenged and she asked the ball- boy for the ball. She wanted to see

:35:02. > :35:08.if there was white paste. Then she was smiling. So much the German

:35:08. > :35:13.press have been complaining it that she is Territt -- to emotional at

:35:13. > :35:18.times. I would recommend that she does not listen to every single

:35:19. > :35:26.where they are saying. All the media. That goes without saying, I

:35:26. > :35:29.suppose. I'll be OK over there? Sorry, I have completely

:35:29. > :35:34.disconnected myself so I have no means of communicating with the

:35:34. > :35:39.outside world. I will just keep talking. She has no reason not to

:35:39. > :35:43.enjoy what she was doing today. She plays spectacular tennis. We know

:35:43. > :35:49.she has huge serve and powerful groundstrokes and their game plan

:35:49. > :35:58.was to go after her air strikes. She had her ankle in April but then

:35:58. > :36:02.she lost four matches in a row. -- she injured her ankle. I'm sure

:36:02. > :36:08.hand -- I saw her when that happened and she was very depressed.

:36:09. > :36:18.But she already said she was looking towards Wimbledon. Quarters,

:36:18. > :36:25.2010. Semifinals, 2011. I loved the way she plays. Maria Carolan care,

:36:26. > :36:29.she has always worked hard. But none of those art big hitters.

:36:29. > :36:34.back in contact with mission control. A quick word about

:36:34. > :36:37.Sharapova. When she has been down you're always felt there was

:36:37. > :36:42.something to get her back into the match but watching today I never

:36:42. > :36:46.felt there was any point when she was going to overcome Lisicki.

:36:46. > :36:53.is because Lisicki played so well. Sharapova said afterwards that she

:36:53. > :36:57.had many chances and she did. She was down 5-2 in the first set, got

:36:57. > :37:02.the break and then was up and then double-faulted. She returned

:37:02. > :37:07.protect the French to win but it was still of a bit of a concern

:37:07. > :37:13.what would happen with the South -- serve because it is tougher to

:37:13. > :37:18.break when you play Lisicki on grass. I still thought that game,

:37:18. > :37:24.get the momentum, it was surprising that went away. She not only lost

:37:24. > :37:32.the match today as her No. 1 ranking. Yes, it will go either to

:37:32. > :37:37.read from cow or Victoria Azarenka. One of the big things about women's

:37:37. > :37:42.tennis at the moment is she made the number two in the world but who

:37:42. > :37:47.actually is Victoria Azarenka? She is the miss from Minsk,

:37:47. > :37:53.Australian Open champion, world number two, once the number one.

:37:53. > :37:57.Victoria Azarenka has a prize fighter's strut. She hoots when she

:37:57. > :38:02.is hot and screams when she is not there. She has bat has a presence

:38:02. > :38:06.on court, attitude counts when it comes from Azarenka's corner. And

:38:06. > :38:11.yet there is a certain anonymity about one so lofty, stiff-wristed.

:38:11. > :38:15.We would not think it but Victoria is a bit of a secret, to the UK

:38:15. > :38:21.masses at least. That's the time has come for a public unveiling of

:38:21. > :38:24.a potential Wimbledon champion in waiting.

:38:24. > :38:29.Tracey, talk to us about her performance today and her as a

:38:29. > :38:35.player. Her performance today was a phenomenal against Ivanovic. She

:38:35. > :38:37.has been playing very well. She has yet to lose a set here and I think

:38:37. > :38:41.she's somebody we should stop mentioning because at the bidding

:38:41. > :38:48.of the tournament we talked so much about Sharapova and Serena Williams

:38:48. > :38:51.but Azarenka won the Australian Open earlier this year. And

:38:51. > :38:55.Azarenka is -- has such a great return and she got in the

:38:55. > :38:59.semifinals here last year on grass. I think she probably does not mind

:38:59. > :39:05.that not so many people are talking about her. She's kind of in the

:39:05. > :39:10.shadows. I am sure I will get some angry letters from the WTA but part

:39:10. > :39:15.of the reason she is not as popular as she could be his bat and

:39:15. > :39:25.throwing things. I know they are talking about doing something about

:39:25. > :39:28.

:39:28. > :39:33.it. -- that no groaning at thing it. Sharapova does it amended two of

:39:33. > :39:41.them play it is like you need earplugs. Kirilenko makes an

:39:41. > :39:51.extraordinary noise as well. But Azarenka's is a double noise.

:39:51. > :39:57.extended. I think John is right. That is one thing. I think the

:39:57. > :40:03.crunching. But many people loved Sharapova as well. They do not love

:40:03. > :40:08.the noises. Azarenka, she needs to learn to embrace the press a little

:40:08. > :40:12.more. Especially with the debris rape -- WTA talking about these

:40:12. > :40:18.noises. She said they had not talked to her. Then she said, good

:40:18. > :40:28.luck with that. That is kind of a smutty comment, instead of talking

:40:28. > :40:32.

:40:32. > :40:40.about it. -- PACE Motty comment. - a snotty comment. But isn't it nice

:40:40. > :40:47.that she likes to go under the radar? There is a part that could

:40:47. > :40:56.rub the players the wrong way. She has an attitude and she is not

:40:56. > :41:05.popular. I mentioned that Kirilenko made a lot of noise on one court. I

:41:05. > :41:12.was next door watching another court, Serena Williams against

:41:12. > :41:18.Schvedova or. She had played April his opponent to who get to the

:41:18. > :41:28.final of the French Open, and yet Serena Williams got to the third

:41:28. > :41:56.

:41:56. > :42:00.COMMENTATOR: Six games, 24 strict It really was extraordinary. Only

:42:00. > :42:04.the second time it has ever happened at Wimbledon. The match

:42:04. > :42:06.today, you would have thought might have been a one-way street but

:42:06. > :42:13.Sabina started off very impressively and certainly in terms

:42:13. > :42:21.of the first set, she was boss in the match. But the great thing

:42:31. > :42:36.taken Kazakhstan nationality... Her Sarin it was looking like an --

:42:36. > :42:40.Serena Williams was looking like a potential champion in the first set.

:42:40. > :42:50.Here we are in the second set. Should the day there is a leading

:42:50. > :42:53.

:42:53. > :42:58.They need those glasses, there is a very misty the player and one to

:42:58. > :43:04.one there. This game really could have gone either way. So here we

:43:04. > :43:10.find ourselves at 5-5 in the deciding set. The crucial thing

:43:10. > :43:20.here now is it has just started to rain, so Yaroslava or so read about

:43:20. > :43:20.

:43:20. > :44:09.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:44:09. > :44:13.-- Yaroslava or Schvedova is going COMMENTATOR: That ended up cramping

:44:13. > :44:18.Sabina Williams on the baseline. The return was superb. I do not

:44:18. > :44:25.think she expected her opponent to move so well and pick it up. One of

:44:25. > :44:35.the features of this match has been the athleticism of the big player

:44:35. > :44:35.

:44:35. > :45:17.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:45:17. > :45:27.from Kazakhstan. She has picked up Soak the double fault card creeps

:45:27. > :45:28.

:45:28. > :45:38.up to six. A crucial time. Some great points once more. She'd just

:45:38. > :46:03.

:46:03. > :46:13.And she has done it. Williams Sarin has four wins to go it she

:46:13. > :46:35.

:46:35. > :46:40.hopes to emulate Vinas' ft of five The trap here for Serena Williams

:46:40. > :46:47.is to rush, because there is a lot of moisture in the air and she must

:46:47. > :46:54.just want to get it done and dusted. But you do not want to brush. I was

:46:54. > :47:04.always taught, the longer -- the more you rush, the longer things

:47:04. > :47:04.

:47:04. > :48:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 48 seconds

:48:33. > :48:43.An extraordinary stroke play it up by it misjudging that return from

:48:43. > :48:47.

:48:47. > :48:57.Williams, Williams has secured much Her GPS was just off course on that

:48:57. > :49:36.

:49:36. > :49:41.particular occasion. Match point, Williams jumped for joy. At the

:49:41. > :49:45.realisation she has secured a victory on Miss fourth round

:49:45. > :49:52.encounter up. Now she can enjoy the moment, soaking up the applause

:49:52. > :49:58.from this crowd here on the court that is now filled to capacity.

:49:58. > :50:00.That was a fantastic game. Serena Williams was victorious and if you

:50:00. > :50:04.were watching a couple of days ago you may have seen her press

:50:04. > :50:10.conference when she was asked how she was feeling and she said, I am

:50:10. > :50:19.OK, playing well but the more thing I want more than anything is for

:50:19. > :50:23.someone some torrent to give me some red roses. So...

:50:23. > :50:29.I hope you do not mind, we have taken the opportunity to get you

:50:29. > :50:36.some roses. Why it is my favourite colour. That is so sweet! And you

:50:36. > :50:44.so much. So every time you win we will give you some more flowers.

:50:44. > :50:49.Thank you. He is horribly smooth the! He was

:50:49. > :50:57.so excited about that. I thought she wanted red roses? Yes, and he

:50:57. > :51:06.did not tell her that they were �2.99 from a garage down the road.

:51:06. > :51:10.Sarin it looks better. -- Serena Williams looked better. Her lack of

:51:10. > :51:18.movement struck me because she was always so awesome at that. Today

:51:18. > :51:23.was better returns. The serve is always there. We shall -- sort 23

:51:24. > :51:29.aces. I keep waiting for that breakout matcha and obviously, that

:51:29. > :51:34.would be the time to do it. She has had two extremely close matches and

:51:34. > :51:40.I do not know if it is because she is 30, she is not as confident as

:51:40. > :51:44.she normally is, came off the first round last... But it does seem

:51:44. > :51:48.like... Because she was so quick around the court and it seems that

:51:48. > :51:58.she is in good shape. It is just the spring does not seem to be

:51:58. > :52:01.there. That first step that is not the same. And Yaroslava share the

:52:01. > :52:07.Deva did not do a press conference after that, so we do not know why

:52:07. > :52:12.she took her glasses off. She will be further upset to note that was

:52:12. > :52:17.the only match that was being played at that particular point. I

:52:17. > :52:20.think the glasses topped up a bit. Because she is a wild card who

:52:20. > :52:28.perhaps does not have the same pride that the big names would have

:52:28. > :52:32.done, if she had gone to the umpire -- who does not have the same

:52:32. > :52:39.impact, if she had gone to the umpire and said, I wear glasses,

:52:39. > :52:49.one to come off, but they have not listened to her? She would have

:52:49. > :52:53.been pooh-poohed? Pooh-poohed? It sounds sort of lame. She may be has

:52:53. > :52:59.a right to complain but we saw Francesca Schiavone complained.

:52:59. > :53:02.will talk about the rain. We have managed to complete the women's

:53:02. > :53:07.final -- quarterfinal line-up despite the rain.

:53:07. > :53:11.Kim Clijsters is a glittering bronze lamp champion but it was

:53:11. > :53:15.only an exhibition match three years ago that brought her out of

:53:15. > :53:19.retirement to add to have made a collection. But this year she is

:53:19. > :53:23.going to retire again and today we witnessed her last appearance at

:53:23. > :53:32.these championships. Eighth is seeded German Kerber was

:53:32. > :53:38.unstoppable, even for a player of It was a straight-sets end to a

:53:38. > :53:43.Wimbledon career that began in 1999 but the Olympics and US Open still

:53:43. > :53:47.beckon and after that, her next job is not too bad either. I am very

:53:47. > :53:52.happy that I had a chance to travel the world with my family and my has

:53:52. > :53:58.done is supporting me as well. In a few months, and it will be

:53:58. > :54:05.different again. I will be the wise taking care ask my husband and

:54:05. > :54:09.daughter, and I am looking forward to that as well. Wimbledon champion

:54:09. > :54:15.Petra Kvitova banners up in trouble against Shia that Tony. But then

:54:15. > :54:20.it's a's former French Open champion started to slip. --

:54:21. > :54:26.Schiavone. The rain started and Schiavone it was not happy. She

:54:26. > :54:31.highlighted her agitation. Nothing was sacred, not even the balls.

:54:31. > :54:34.Kvitova kept her cool and took the deciding third set 6-1 and faces

:54:34. > :54:44.Serena Williams in the quarters. Another Italian failed in the last

:54:48. > :54:53.that winning smile into a quarterfinal against Victoria

:54:53. > :54:59.Azarenka. Italy is not having the best couple of days because

:54:59. > :55:07.Radwanska was too good for Giorgio Del boy, another Italian tumbling

:55:07. > :55:11.in the last 16. The Giorgi was dismissed in straight sets. A

:55:11. > :55:16.tougher challenge for Reds franker's quarterfinal opponent,

:55:16. > :55:19.Kirilenko. She dropped the second set on a tie-break only to win the

:55:19. > :55:26.decider at 6-3 against the Chinese player on court well. With British

:55:26. > :55:30.weather, you have to prepare all eventualities. Was Pakistan's

:55:30. > :55:33.Istomin drug Mikhail Youzhny to five sets. The spitting rain may

:55:33. > :55:39.not have dampened down the pollen quite as much as some would have

:55:39. > :55:47.liked. Dry eyes, itchy eyes, sneezing, but would suggest

:55:47. > :55:53.antihistamine but for fear of drowsiness. So let's stick clearly

:55:53. > :55:58.to anti-his statement. His opponent today took a brace against Federer

:55:58. > :56:08.in the finals. He has quite a good record against you? You have played

:56:08. > :56:10.

:56:10. > :56:20.13 times and he has won 13 times? Congratulations for the most

:56:20. > :56:30.contrived link so far in our Paszek, at the bottom against

:56:30. > :56:33.Azarenka. There will be one German into the semifinals. It means that

:56:33. > :56:43.we have an interesting quarterfinal set up there. Would you look at the

:56:43. > :56:48.Williams game of being the one you Absolutely. It is going to be a

:56:48. > :56:52.hard hitting match and neither one of them has played up to BET top

:56:52. > :56:59.capability yet, so they are going to have to come at early. There is

:56:59. > :57:05.no doubt about that but it is nice to see the open hearth so available.

:57:05. > :57:09.Been open top half. Marie Kirilenko, they always get beaten up by these

:57:09. > :57:18.bigger, stronger girls. They get to play each other, which is nice. So

:57:18. > :57:27.one of them will at least get to the semifinals. He and his like it.

:57:27. > :57:29.The number one ranking at stake. Because it has rained, several
