Day 4 Wimbledon

of redemption. He's done it! That's it. The chance of revenge.

There is a new man at the helm of men's tennis, Rafael Nadal! The

chance to conquer your past. Game, set, match, Becker. Sport, and

I know, there is a second chance. He's done it, he's won it! The

chance to write a wrong. Game, set and match, Miss Venus Williams.

Game, set and match, Serena Williams. The chance to get it

right. She's done it, it's over. And it's always different second time

around. Isn't it? SUE BARKER: And we are ready for the

rematch. Will Centre Court be the place for Rafael to get his revenge

on Lukas Rosol? And it is also the venue for Heather Watson and

Angelique Kerber and Roger Federer will also be returning to Centre

Court. 40,000 come through the gates each week. But it is not just the

Centre Court, it is all around the ground. People are dressed for the

occasion. Some better than others. But they end you at home or in for a

real treat today. Rafael Nadal takes on Rosol, the man who sensationally

beat him at this stage two years ago. Will the sequel have a happy

ending for the world number one? Inform Heather Watson is aiming to

beat her previous Wimbledon best of reaching the third round, but the

British number one faces a tough task against the ninth seed

Angelique Kerber. Seven time champion Roger Federer suffered a

shock defeat at last a's second round. 12 months on, the king of

grass will be looking to sidestep a similar problem against Gilles

Muller. Serena Williams is on quest for an 18th Grand Slam title. She is

up against Chanelle Scheepers. Maria Sharapova has lost three times in

the second round this year. Today the 2004 champion faces Swiss

qualifier Timea Bacsinszky. Rafael knows what to expect from this man,

big hitter Lukas Rosol, his ranking is 52 in the world but he's always

dangerous on the surface. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga knows all about

this club. He is making his fourth day in a row on court. He is

resuming his match against Sam Querrey. Nine games all in the fifth

set. That resumes on Court Two. Andy Murray has the day. He was only on

court for an hour and a half yesterday. Plenty of for him. He

will be on court tomorrow against Roberto Bautista Agut. We will be

keeping an eye on Court number three. Milos Raonic is on court. He

is up against Jack Sock, the 21-year-old from America. There are

three of four Americans who have made it into the second round. Here

is Milos Raonic. He is seeded eighth at these championships. He could be

a real threat well into this tournament. And Court Two, Richard

Gasquet, the 13th seed, he is up against a 19-year-old, the youngest

player left in the draw, Nik Kyrgios of Australia. I accidentally said

Gilles Simon instead of Gilles Muller. He was a great player. Here

we are with John Lloyd and Laura Robson. How are you enjoying

Wimbledon without playing it? The hours are definitely longer. I am

being put to work. I am really enjoying being able to watch as many

matches as possible. You have got the brace on and you have had

surgery. We have been talking about a new brace of women's players

coming through. It is exciting times. It is and I have seen so many

great matches already. We have Heather playing on Centre Court

later. Hopefully she will do well but there are so many other matches

to watch. It is rougher and Lukas Rosol back on Centre Court. You were

commentating on the match two years ago and it was a big upset. We did

not know over a much about Rosol. We thought he would start to miss but

he did not. Once the roof came on he started playing better and better. I

really think Rafa could have stayed there for another week. He was in

that mindset where everything he hit turned to gold. There was a bit of

aggro in the match which was fun. It was great. Lets remind everyone

about that match. It happened two years ago on Centre Court. It

featured five amazing sets. Some big hitters and it left a bouncing.

What a shock maker this man is. Ladies and gentlemen, due to the

fading light, the roof will be closed. Outstanding tennis from

Rosol. We are seeing something special. Seven unforced errors in

this set. He could win tournaments with that.

A man ranked 100 has simply outplayed the man ranked two in the

world. Sustained brilliance. That was extraordinary.

I wonder is there is no love lost between them now. It was a frosty

handshake. There was a lot of controversy. Rafa appealed to the

umpire a few times. He was not happy when the roof was closed. And

Rosol, it was one of those stunning matches that happens now and again,

he was seeing the ball like it was a football. You kept thinking, he

can't go on, and he did. 22 aces, 65 winners, 20 of them in the fifth

set. He was going for it. Rafa was appealing to the umpire all the

time. He was trying to put him off. But it is all part of what you can

do now. I think a lot of players do every kind of tactic that they can,

especially someone as high ranked as Rafa. I think he took it a bit

personally in the end. I'm sure they are fine now but it will be

competitive on court today, I would say. This was match point. It was

really frosty in contrast to what we saw with Stepanek and Djokovic when

he gave him a point. The sportsmanship was unbelievable. They

really did not get on. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do.

Sometimes lower ranked players are intimidated when they play top

ranked players. They do not too too much about it. Rosol did not care

who he played. He was going to beat him that day. He was in the zone

from the start of the match to the end. We look at the big four and who

had they have got with their coaching. Federer with Edberg,

Amelie Mauresmo with Andy Murray but Rafa Nadal has stuck with his uncle

Tony. Let's hear from him. The match was really difficult

because we remember what happened in the last two years. If he loses

against -- he lost against Steve D'Arcy 's in the first round and

then he lost two years ago against Rosol. He is so much better, I do

know, it is difficult, but he can try. Is he feeling fine? No aches

and pains? We play always with pain. The last two years was really

difficult. You should play so much down. This year, I hope, is

different and I hope Rafael can make a good tournament. For him to go

forward in this tournament, how does he manage the pain? Does he do

different things on grass than he would at Roland Garros in terms of

preparation and rehabilitation? No, no, the preparation is different

because Roland Garros is easy for us. But I remember some years

before, grass was very good for rough file. 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010

and 2011 for Rafael to play on grass, is a good thing. Will we get

to the stage where Rafa is still on the tour but he will choose not to

play on grass? No, never, because for us to play Wimbledon is always a

dream. When Rafael was young, my dream was to win one time here, to

come every year here for me is a dream. And finally, Rosol in the

next round, you hope history does not repeat itself? You hope! But I

know Rosol is a very difficult player because he has a good serve,

it is complicated to play against a player like Rosol because you are

always in water up to here but I hope Rafael is good for trying to

beat Lukas Rosol. We try. I don't know what happens later but I hope.

He does not sound too confident but then he never does! How tough is it

to go one against an opponent where you have had a big shock? I think

Rafa was really confident so I do not think he will be thinking too

much about their previous match. He came out of a tough one will stop he

is dangerous if he hits the ball like he did last time. It was huge

in his eyes. But everyone is going to be looking forward to watching

that match. I would say Rafa will come out on top today. It is also

tough because the French Wimbledon double has only been done by Rafa

and Bjorn in the open era. His body is weary after the French. Without

question, it is the toughest thing to do. It is the toughest thing.

Next year there will be three weeks gap so it will not be as tough. If

Rafa does it, it will be a magnificent performance. So we are

not expecting another big shock? No, but he will be dangerous. Roger

Federer loves being on Centre Court. No one is talking about him as a

potential winner but you cannot write him off? You cannot write him

off. He is playing Gilles Muller. He is ten set to zero at the moment. A

fellow lefty. I think Federer is playing well. No one is really

talking. It is all about Djokovic and Murray. Federer is happy about

that. He has Edberg in his corner now. He is dangerous. Heather

tweeted that she is in a Rafa Roger sandwich on Centre Court! She is

playing some of her best tennis now because she has finally got herself

fit and healthy. All of the other players are so happy to see her

doing well again. It has taken a long time to get back but she had a

really good result in Eastbourne. Her first-round opponent was really

tough. I thought it would be a lot closer. She pulled it out and played

very aggressive and I'm sure she will be looking to do the same

against Kerber. This is her warming up for her warm up. Such a big day

and a big occasion. You know what it is like going out on Centre Court.

It is a daunting prospect. It is, but an exciting one. It is an

enjoyable experience. She has won twice out there already. Angelique

Kerber is a difficult opponent and was a finalist at Eastbourne last

week. Yes, I played her here couple of years ago and that was before she

started doing well. She has improved out of sight in the last two years

or so. She's always a tough opponent. She hits shots that you

have no idea how they go in. We will see later on. Let's hear from

Heather because in keeping with her centre stage appearance today, she

has been rubbing shoulders with a superstar.

I was walking down the stairs and I had a mini panic attack because I

saw Samuel L Jackson. I asked him for a quick selfie and Grigor

Dimitrov photo bombed our selfie! He looks really fit and healthy like he

plays tennis as well. When I took the selfie I took it with my broken

phone. He said with that broke as phone? ! I have known I love a long

time. We played doubles and won the title together. It is tough playing

a friend of the court. I knew it would not be easy. I had a game plan

and I stuck to it and it worked well. How were the nerves out there?

It is not easy, British number one, full stands, how tough was it to

cope with? I was quite nervous going into the match. I did not sleep

great the night before but I never do. I was eating a banana for and my

jaw was not opening properly because of my nerves. Once I got out,

stepped onto court before the warm up, I was feeling good and I just

got rid of the nerves. In terms of the fashion out there, it looks like

you have a new dress on with their high waistline and it is floaty.

Talk us through the dress. Yes, this is my tennis dress. It has a wasted

skirt look about it. But it worked today! It worked. It is pretty windy

today. Angelique Kerber, you know how to beat her, you did it back in

2011, what where the tactics you used and are there any weaknesses?

Back when I played her, I had not won a match at Wimbledon. I was

super nervous. I do not know what that celebration was! We were

outside court. Both my parents were watching. Angie, she is pretty low

on confidence. She she started to do well that year. Then she made it to

the top ten and kept going and won a couple of titles. She seems a dog

with opponent, she keeps you in those rallies? Guess, she moves

extremely well. She can keep the rallies going much longer than I

would like and fortunately! What about Heather? She has got to be

really aggressive like she was in the first round, play her own game

and not get caught up in the situation but I think she will be

fine. There are a number of up-and-coming women on the tour. Sam

Smith has been looking at some of those who are rising up the

rankings. There have been many legends of the

women's games over the years but there is a new group waiting in the

wings, ready to write their own places in history books. There is

definitely a group of younger players who are finding their games

and figuring it out a little bit more. The younger generation will

eventually come through and surpass the current generation. White macro

one woman who is already on highway is Simona Hallett. I set my dream is

to play the big final. I am willing to be disappointed because I lost

it. Still, I am very happy for the result. I have to enjoy this moment

because it is the best. I'm happy to be here now. Teenager Madison Keys

is not fazed at the tag of being one of America's hottest tennis

talents. Really, I'm trying to play tennis for myself and do as best as

I can. This is the youngster in the pack. Last year, she won the girls

title and she has the ideal game for grass. She has got it! She has added

the Wimbledon title to her resume. And then there is Canadian Eugenie

Bouchard. She was the 2012 junior champion and she is a contender for

some of tennis's biggest prizes. This motivates me to work even

harder. I just want to give it my all and I am enjoying it so much.

Life is good. The youth brigade are on the march at the Championships.

The top women had better watch out. We have picked out as many as we

could. Did we miss one? Wozniacki is playing a girl called Anaconda

tomorrow and she is 16. She makes me feel really old! -- Ana Konjuh. It

will be really tough for Caroline. I'm surprised she was not in there.

Too many to choose from. Who has impressed you? Eugenie Bouchard. I

look back at some of the olden days when you had Steffi Graf, Martina

and Chrissy, a lot of women were intimidated by them. But this breed

coming up, they are not scared of the top women. They regard it as a

challenge and a scalp and there is no fear factor any more. You really

grew up in some ways with each a knee. You know her well? Guess, we

all played in junior matches -- you shame you douche. -- you shame the

Bouchard. You know Madison Keys well. These

are the rankings. Madison Keys once some champagne at

Eastbourne. She won some champagne and sent me a message promising to

share it and I have not seen it yet! I do not know if she is saving it

for after this tournament but I will be waiting. How do the younger women

in the locker room with the likes of Maria and Serena who have been at

the top of the game for so many years, are they intimidated or not

so much? The seeded players are separate in a different locker room

that everyone is looking to beat whoever is opposite the net. I am

looking forward to a potential Eugenie Bouchard Williams fourth

round. And we are looking forward to getting you back on a tennis court.

It is a day by day thing. I am doing my scar massages when I am not on

TV! OK, we are all -- almost ready for our live matches on BBC Two. But

what about the weather? Carole Walker did allow a building with a

large bouquet of flowers. Who were they for? -- Carol Kirkwood walked

into our building with a large bouquet of flowers. Did you make

these hats yourselves? We did. My grand daughter showed me how to make

the reset, very easy. Where have you come from? We have come from

Plymouth. We started camping out yesterday morning. What was that

like? The sun was shining, we had some wine and it was fine. I notice

you have brought me some! That is mine, nice try! Hope you have a

fabulous day. We do have some cloud across us at the moment. We are

likely to hang onto that for a time yet. It is high cloud. It will then,

it will break and there will be some sunny spells. The top temperature

will be 19 or 20 Celsius. Into the evening we are looking at a very

similar scenario. It should stay dry. The light may deteriorate. And

the pollen levels are not very high today. They are going down over the

next few days as well. Thank you. I know you have predicted

some rain for tomorrow but we will not worry about that now. They have

got a lot to enjoy up on the hill on the big screen.

Laura was just telling me that Stanislas Wawrinka was out for a

long run this morning prior to his match.

Play is underway on the outside courts.

The match on number two court is on the red button.

You can follow that match online. Coverage of 12 court online.

We are heading to court number 32 C Milos Raonic, big server from

Canada, up against Jack Sock, the 21-year-old from America. We can

join that one. After the first two games went a

point without serve, Milos Raonic has a second break point in the

fourth game. Rannoch unable to put the ball back

in play. -- Raonic. He wants to see if there is any

paint on the ball. The umpire is announcing the second challenge.

They are both wrong. Sock. You can see how very

comfortable Milos Raonic is. That is wonderful wrist action around the

outside of the ball. Jack Sock is still struggling to get

the ball to the background of Milos Raonic. Jack Sock is definitely not

as comfortable as his opponent. A third break point for Milos Raonic.

He tried to do something different. He tried to surprise him.

That was a very loose backhand from Milos Raonic. There are no surprises

from these tennis players. Everyone knows everyone else's strengths and

weaknesses. The coaches can figure it out very easily.

Milos Raonic breaks. Break point could be a right -- rarity today.

You can see the coaches there. These guys are very into his matches. They

love giving him support. That is a bad start from the

American player. His opponent is ranked a lot higher. You must get

off to a good start and it has been shaky from this man. Milos Raonic is

putting allsorts of pressure on him. He is frustrated. It is

self-inflicted. It is. One of the things his people talk to him about

was that he had to stay with this man throughout the match. The paint

blew up. It was beyond the service line. That was not. He made a lovely

little adjustment to keep it inside the lines.

Only the second point that Jock sat -- Jack Sock has won on the Serb of

Milos Raonic. -- on the server. He keeps missing that I can. --

missing that backhand. Milos Raonic comes into this tournament with some

great confidence. He knows he can hold up his seeding and it is not

easy to do. The first double fault. Milos Raonic

has some tape on his arm. There is something wrong with it and he is

trying to protect it. That's what allowed him to make a great first

serve. The case has gone from his serve. -- the pace.

Jack Sock is picking on the backhand but the trouble is can he allow

himself to pick on those areas and get into this match? There is a big

difference between the first-served and the second serve of Milos

Raonic. A huge difference. That is a big serve out wide. Even a

wide search, he had said very hard. -- wide serve. Finally Milos Raonic

holds. Just the one break at 4-1. We talked

about Milos Raonic. We talked about what his coach has done for him. My

view is that because his coach is from Croatia but spent a lot of his

childhood in Italy, he was born in Bosnia, his coach groups that Balkan

and European mentality. Milos Raonic was born in Montenegro. He lived

there until he was three years old and his parents then went to Canada.

I suspect he has found that mixture in his coach. Part of that mentality

is that his coach was always a great thinker on the court, he thought of

himself as mentality and he thinks that of his player. Milos Raonic, he

looks you in the eye when he talks to you. Not a lot of players do

that. I told you it was a Canadian net!

That was a wonderful first-served and Milos Raonic was very lucky to

get that all back. -- that ball. He is serving too many double

faults. Three of them in total. He is serving and volleying quite a

bit. That is where he is most comfortable.

That is a little bit silly from Jack Sock. You cannot lob at someone who

is 6'5". That is a weak shot. Milos Raonic

seems to have trouble concentrating. There are a lot of unforced errors.

Jack Sock is playing fast now. He almost wants this set to be

finished. That is a lovely volley. I think rail and each is complaining

that the server was wide. -- Milos Raonic. You are supposed to play to

the rhythm of the server. If Milos Raonic does not like what is

happening, he can try to slow the server down by turning his back.

That was an elementary error. Jack Sock came in and played his folly

and then watched it. He was not ready for this at all. -- played his

volley. Jack Sock calls from 13-40. Maybe

this set is not over after all. Jack Sock is not happy with how he is

playing. He is rushing with his serve.

This is the problem for Jack Sock. When you have lost your serve, it is

very difficult to get it back from Milos Raonic.

That is one of the problems for Milos Raonic. When he comes forward,

he is not ridiculously comfortable. You can see yet. A lot of the balls

drop at his feet and he is not getting close and not to be able to

volley them. But he still manages to hold and leads by five games to two.

We have heard that a physio may be called for Jack Sock. There is

nobody inside at the moment. The umpire is leaning forward to try and

get some information. But here comes the trainer. SUE BARKER: let's take

around -- take a look around the other matches. This is what is

happening on Court Number Two. So much to look forward to later on

today. We are enjoying this match. COMMENTATOR: the doctor has come on

court. I have a problem with this, I really

do. It causes an interruption to his opponent. He is winning, there is

nothing wrong with him. He has just taken some medication. There is no

need for a break for that, is there? He could have just taken that at a

change of ends without there being any delay at all. There was no need

for all this commotion. That was a great body serve. Ever

since he lost his serve, he has not been the same person. It just shows

that the break of serve is such a premium in this match.

The fourth double fault for Jack Sock. But I think that is a

reasonable double fault because he was going for a great second serve.

I really like the fact that he is coming into the net as much as he

is. But I would like to see him coming in more. He seems a lot more

comfortable in the front of the court. Jack Sock was tentative in

that and he could not convert them. Jack Sock still had a chance to win

the game. Milos Raonic serving to take the first set.

At what point should his opponents start to read the serve? I do not

think he can. One thing about that serve is that he throws the ball

toss in the same place, each and every time. It is very hard to

anticipate what is coming. Even when he is in the right position, he is

trouble -- has trouble getting the ball back in play. He has not tested

the serve up his opponent. -- the serve of his opponent.

We thought this match would be one on Serbs. -- would be one on Serbs.

It is set point. That was a fairly easy set for Milos Raonic. He takes

it 6-3. Just the one break of serve. We talk a lot about the serve of

Milos Raonic. He hit six aces. Here are the statistics. The serve was

dominant. Look at what happened. Milos Raonic putting all kinds of

pressure on the serve of Jack Sock. He only converted one out of six.

Jack Sock is not even getting a look in on his serve. If the match

continues to play out in this fashion, there will only be one

winner. Here is the service action of Milos Raonic. Nothing goes wrong

with the serve, it is fluid, it is relaxed and he is a very tall man.

He fully extends. All he has to do is hit it at the peak and he is so

confident with it, whether it is the first serve or the second serve. He

hits the ball on almost a downward trajectory and I absolutely love it.

I think it is one of the best in the game today.

He needs to get away from that first set and forget about it. He needs to

get more versed serve sin. He needs to play with more passion and

energy. His spirit has been broken slightly. -- get more first serves

in. That is the second time that Jack

Sock has attempted to lob the ball. You do not see singles players doing

that. But is more likely in doubles play.

Milos Raonic is not entirely convinced about that one. The

problem with that is that he was in control of the point and did not

actually want to come forward. He had Jack Sock on the run all over

the court. Right now, he has got to be feeling

all kinds of pressure. All of those double faults. Before you know what,

if he goes down an early break here, it might be the last of his hopes

for this match. Well played. That was a great

forehand played on the run. This is explosive. Look at this. It does not

get any better than this. Break point to Milos Raonic.

He has missed it. That approach shot from Jack Sock came perilously close

to being long. But you have to give him credit for having the courage to

come forward. Milos Raonic did not even make Jack Sock play that folly.

-- that volley. That was a great shot and he read

that perfectly. That first volley was nice and tight and then he

guesses correctly. Absolutely perfect.

That is a great serve out wide. That will do a lot for his confidence. It

keeps the match competitive. If you think that Wimbledon is only about

grass courts, there are hard courts here as well, there is red clay,

there is dark green clay. This is just across the road, we find the

golf course. If you are not happy with your tennis, you can just go

and jump in the lake! When you have ground strokes as big

as that, to accompany that wonderful serve, it makes coming into the net

so easy. There is no reason to panic. Jack Sock is way off the

court. It is the first time he has had to

play a volley. He kept the racket in front. His technique was not great.

He was on the defensive but at least get it over the net.

I think the one advantage Sock has is that he can move. He was asked to

take his pullover off at the start of the match because it has some

black trim on it. These guys should know better. They are being very

strict on the rules this year about all white.

Raonic stopped because he was not sure where the ball was going to go.

He has got to keep going. He stops. He is waiting to see what happens.

That shows me he is not that comfortable moving forward.

He has an interesting looking forehand.

It is almost like if he had a hockey stick in his hand.

And ice hockey stick! We make the difference over here.

Six double faults forward Jack Sock. He is pressing. He feels how

difficult it is to return. He is giving Raonic so much credit.

He has a good second serve. Raonic as to make him pay. You have

to take advantage. That was a poor forehand by Sock.

That may be the one that concedes the match. I know we are long way

from the end. It is hard to see him breaking Raonic. Raonic leads with a

break in the second. It is not the warmest day of the

week so far. But there are plenty of people enjoying their picnic and

watching the big screen. This is the players' restaurant. We

should perhaps call it players and players associates because there are

a lot more associates than players. It is still a good day for the

suncream. That is the millennium building,

completed for the year 2000. There is a footbridge to Centre Court.

Jack Sock is in trouble here. A set down, 1-2 with a break. Raonic's

main concern is the son. Seven double faults tells me he has

come into the match shaky, not confident.

He is really starting to lose the plot.

Are we perhaps undervaluing what Brown which has achieved here?

Here's the night in the world -- Raonic has achieved? He's just

coming off his fourth quarterfinal at the French Open. Sock is 77 and

never been in a singles final. Surely the school we have got now is

entirely natural. We are not devaluing how good Raonic is. It is

about that Sock is playing so poorly.

This is a classic combination of one player playing pretty well and the

other beside himself, not knowing what to do.

I get the sense that the crowd want this to be more of a contest. That

was really warm applause for Jack Sock.

A good body serve from Sock. He is hanging in there. That is about all

you can say for him at the moment. SUE BARKER: We will be back with

this match in just a moment. Gael Monfils looks to be in trouble

out on court 12. You can follow that match online.

Lee's Cornet has been improving her world ranking every year. -- Lee's

Cornet. It is important that he keeps his

focus. How many net calls as he had? Every

time the ball has bounced off the top of the net, it has worked

Raonic's way. He is not getting in close enough. He waits for the ball

to come to him and he just gets lucky.

We have seen it a lot where a player makes a shot and the ball goes

behind them. On the change in direction they fall. It was the

change in direction. There is still a fair bit of grass there but it has

lost its that. That was a much better return from

Sock. He is more relaxed. It is a second serve and he decides he will

just go for it. Once again, Jack Sock having a

reasonable shot at that return. He pops it down the middle of the

court. Sock needs to slow down. He is

playing fast. He is angry. get excited happy when he hits a

shot like this because in the back of his mind he is thinking, how am I

going to break serve? I am already down a set and down a break. There

is a lot of negativity coming from there.

That was a good game for Jack Sock. He stays in contact but still a

break down. People have talked about Milos

Raonic through while as leader of the next generation, whoever you

include, whether you include Nishikori, Dimitrov and Dolgopolov.

He has re-established himself in the top ten. Do you see himself as a two

or three times Grand Slam champion, once the likes of Djokovic, Nadal

and Murray have retired or past their best? I think he has the

potential to be a Grand Slam champion. Certainly, the forehand is

Grand Slam Championship worthy. The rest of the game needs to get a

little bit better. When you are playing against someone

serving like this and you're down a set and down a break, it is hard to

see the silver lining. Sock has had a few points off the

Raonic's serve. Even the second serve is hard to get

back into play. We were watching Raonic out here. He

was saying how Sock is 21 years of age. He is 23. It is almost as if he

is the elder statesman. He has been around longer. He did not break into

the top ten until earlier this year. It was after his run to the

quarterfinals in Miami where he beat Murray in the fourth round.

That was long. Raonic tried a drop shot and he hit the ball right to

wear Sock was standing. Every time Sock has played a drop shot, he has

not known what to do on the shot afterwards. Dazed and confused.

That is the strategy, pound away at the backhand. When he can get to the

backhand. That was a lovely touch. I did that

come from? Raonic will have to serve out the set.

Shows what the American can do. Was his head right or was that devil may

care? Throwing caution to the wind? It was gorgeous but if he had missed

it, you would say he had checked out mentally. Exactly. But the motion is

good. That shows you what he's capable of doing. Right now he is

putting himself in a bad position by not playing his best against someone

who is awfully good. Raonic got that right onto the

baseline. That was a nice second serve. That

was faster than his first serve. If it was anyone else you would say he

was showboating but this is the way that Raonic can put his foot on the

gas pedal. And able to play the most casual of

half volleys. In control of this match, Raonic leads by two sets to

zero. SUE BARKER: So Raonic is two sets to

love up. We will leave that match. If you want to follow it you can

online. We are heading off to Centre Court shortly. Let's just drop in on

Course 12 where Gael Monfils is there. He is struggling in his

match. When he played his first round match he looks rather

sluggish. Lee McKenzie is there. You watched him in the first round, what

is wrong here? He has dropped two sets. I spoke to him on the other

night. He was explaining that although he had had a lot of

discussions with the umpire, that is how he plays. He is very relaxed

when he gets onto the tennis court and he has to do something to

motivate himself. He almost causes problems for himself but also for

his opponent, tries to get under his skin. His exact words were, I am

sneaky. At the moment it is not really paying off. He has dropped

two sets. He also told me that he knows instantly when he wakes up in

the morning whether he is going to win or not. I'm guessing this

morning it was not. Thank you. Up against a guy who is six foot six

and won the junior boys here and knows how to play on grass. So Gael

Monfils, the 24th seed is in trouble. You can follow that match

on the red button. We will turn our attention to the Centre Court.

Coming up, it is the world number one.

Well, Rafa will be returning to Centre Court with the rematch of the

man who beat him two years ago, Lukas Rosol of the Czech Republic.

He won it in five thrilling sets. Jonathan Edwards is here, by the

look of it. Many people wanting to see this one. A great programme with

Rafa, Heather Watson and Roger Federer on. But all the talk has

been about Rafael Nadal and Lukas Rosol. Can he pull off another big

shock? I am joined here courtside by Mark Petchey and Peter Fleming. We

talk about that match two years ago, not only was it a five set

thriller, it was quite a testy encounter, wasn't it? It certainly

was. Lukas Rosol got under his skin two years ago, moving around the

court. He did, and it went into a rain delay with Rosol just a couple

of games from winning a bit -- it, and when they came back out, a

series of races, he was amazing. We await the arrival on centre, and

Rafa probably has more routines than most people to get ready. He adjusts

all sort of parts of his attire and the tennis rackets and so on. It is

tough on the body. The knees have been an issue for him, the back has

been an issue, and grass is an unforgiving surface. That is why he

has been an advocate of trying to play as much on clay as possible.

CHEERING A huge ovation for Rafa, he is such

a popular player, and a gracious champion. He is terrific. Watching

his match against Clyde -- Klizan in the first round, he just ground him

down. By the end of the third or fourth set, in between points, he

was walking, but as soon as the point started, he was sprinting

around the court as quick as ever. He has an amazing pain threshold. He

was talking about the back being an issue during the French Open. It has

been part of the whole year, I think. He had to change his service

motion a bit at Indian Wells. Just try to take some of the strain off

the back. So it has been a bit of a problem for him throughout the

course of the year. Last year was very reminiscent of the first year

he won the French Open. Once he won his first French Open, he was

exhausted coming into Wimbledon, he was emotionally drained. And having

had that incredible run in 2013, to in his winner Roland Garros, he was

a little flat last year. He will be ready to challenge. His game is very

physical, but that is the only way he knows how to play. That's right.

Even on the camera behind the court, it is very difficult to tell how

hard he swings at the ball, every single ball. He hits it almost as

hard as he can, and when he is feeling confident, he is virtually

unplayable. And when you look at Lukas Rosol, and they are taking

their time. He hit 20 aces in a match, and he will have to play that

well again. Yes, Rosol is forcing Nadal to break his routine and out

first. There are mind games going on a tween them. It looks like they are

ready for a prize fight, jumping up and down. Let's just see. Rosol has

won the toss, and there he goes. He is ready, and we're ready this

match. I wonder if Lukas Rosol is ready as well. It is a repeat of

their match two years ago, and he came into our office to relive some

of those memories. When you look back at that, do you

still remember the pressures? Yes, I was feeling strange watching these

moments of the match. The emotions are good for me, and it is something

special to watch this match, because everything was working well for me.

UMPIRE: Ladies and gentlemen, due to the fading light, the roof will be

closed to finish the match. Rafer didn't want that, did you? I wanted

to finish the match. They told me it would be 30 to 40 minutes to close

the roof. So I went to take a shower, eat something, come back to

the court. You came back out with such incredible intensity. You wear

in the different worlds. You have to stay with your mind on the court,

you use your habits to free your mind. If you feel all the pressure

around the court, it is very difficult to even step on the court.

We saw that incredible picture of Rafa where he looked shell-shocked.

Could you feel his nerves coming through at that stage? No. I was

only thinking of myself. Just try to concentrate on my game and it was

working. After you won that much, you said, maybe it is once in your

life that you can play like this against Rafa Nadal on second court

and beat him. I guess you are hoping maybe it is twice in your life now!

The game is open and everything is possible. After this match I know

that I can play with any player, and if it is really working, my game, it

is difficult to play against me. And in terms of experience, how much do

you think that you can learn and take from what you went through

against Rafer last time -- against Rafa. I think it means that any

player can play against the top five for the top three. After this match,

I know more that every player is beatable. You don't fear Rafael

Nadal? No, why should I? I have nothing to lose. He can fear. Just

watching Rafa on this court, and listening to how heavy he hits the

ball, incredible. It is, and Rafa has a way of punishing you when you

beat him, as well. Generally, when that has happened in his career, he

has gone out and made a statement the next time. There is a real sort

of ferocity about him right now, about his facial expressions. He is

the ultimate competitor, Rafa. He just has to go out all guns blazing,

and so does Rosol. He does. Most people will go into a match

thinking, what is Rafa going to do, what can I do against it? But he is

going into it thinking, I know that when I play well, I can challenge

anyone. We are in French challenge. Definitely. Just looking at the way

he was sitting in his chair, not going out, we are looking mind games

here. Can he blast Nadal off the court in the same way? I wonder if

that is going to be one of the big things as well. It is a little

easier to serve under pressure with the roof closed, maybe he will try

that today. We are already for this match. We have the world number one

here. Over on Court Number One, we have the ladies number one, Serena

Williams making her way out onto court in her 15th Wimbledon. She is

five times the champion here, and she is looking for her 17th Grand

Slam, looking for an 18th. So that is on Court Number One, Serena

making her way up against Chanelle Scheepers. That match is on the red

button if you want to follow her progress. But here we are

concentrating on Centre Court and the rematch between Lukas Rosol and

Rafael Nadal. Your commentators are John McEnroe and Simon Reed.

SIMON READ: This is a revenge match. JOHN McENROE: It certainly is. He is

a big guy, look at the size of him. He is just going to swing for the

fences. The other question is, do you want to be tested? Do you feel

like you are more settled in the second week? The answer is, if you

know you're going to win, yes. Right now, Nadal is going to come out, he

knows what to expect now. Obviously two years ago he had injuries that

we didn't know about. That is an interesting look, that threw me

then. This is the stage. And he is going to come out, he willed himself

to win in the first round, and he is going to be more constable and more

ready for what he is up against. Does that mean anything will

change? Not necessarily. I suspect that early in this match he will

really trite take it to Rosol and get into his head as early and as

quickly as possible, and not give anything away. He will hit a couple

of great shots, and then go through a period where he seems not to know

where the court is. And Rosol, he is 52 in the world, he has established

himself as a legitimate tour player, not a flash in the pan. The results

haven't been anywhere near what people would have thought when he

beat Nadal, he lost the next round pretty easily and not a lot has

happened since. UMPIRE: Ladies and gentlemen, Lukas

Rosol won the toss and elected to receive.

He didn't seem to charmed by Lukas Rosol. There was a little barge, it

wasn't Luis Suarez like, but it was an incident. When I saw a Luis

Suarez, I thought, think of my worst possible moment, I don't think I was

that bad! They have only played twice, and the most recent time was

a tight second set. Rosol succeeding in getting under the skin of Nadal

the way step neck -- Radek Stepanek did. He is the guy, if you were

watching a football game, he would be falling and looked like he'd

broken his leg, someone hit him in the head, he'd be on the ground ten

times. But he made an interesting match yesterday. Hate to play the

guy, but afterwards, he has earned my respect. Let's see if this check

-- Czech can do the same damage to the Dahl he did two years ago.

UMPIRE: Ready. Play. And Nadal, even with his 14 slams,

he will still feel nerves. To the last point, you do feel it. And

Rosol will be trying to back-up what he did two years ago. What are the

odds of this happening again? Second round again? Same place?

So, a comfortable hold a Rafa. His uncle and his team have done some

more studying to make sure they have got a very good idea. No surprises

this time. They have studied some tapes, I've got a feeling. Set this

guys tendencies out, make sure they are not fooled by anything that

comes along in this match today. Rosol served 22 aces last time they

met here. Here we go! That was very poor, that

drop shot. It should have been over. That is an excellent low volley.

He was hardly missing a couple of years ago.

Easily picked off. I think you were going to see a lot of short balls

from Nadal, forcing Rosol in. He is a big guy, so the slice is going to

stay low, it will be tougher for him to handle.

And Rosol opens his account. He certainly packs a punch. If he

conserve well, it will be problematic for Nadal. This is what

this big guy wants, is to control points and get ahead with the serve.

serve and the second, the proverbial kitchen sink.

The forehand working really well there.

Misfiring a little, but Nadal holds. UMPIRE: Nadal leads by two games to

one, first set. Let's have a closer look at the

Rosol serve. We start with the fact he is six foot five. That alone

allows him to pick his spot more easily than us mere mortals. The key

to any serve is the legs. The power springs from the legs. You combine

that with some torque around your core area. He can go into the 120s

when he wants to, but he prefers to play it safe, get 70% or more serves

in. There are not too many lefties out there, so they are not used to

the spin. It is a tool more than a weapon for him.

UMPIRE: Time, please. One of the events he played, he went

to a challenger in Dallas which he won, and I'm looking at the people

he beat. Four of the five people he beat, Michael Russell, Ryan

Harrison, Steve Johnson, all in the main draw here. It gives you an idea

that the minor leagues can be pretty tough times. The only guy that

wasn't in with Daniel Brands, a former top 50 player.

So the depth clearly is better and better in our sport.

Is there a danger that he would try to make a statement early on to

often? This serve, we showed it, it will be

Keith Fahey. -- key for him. He is going to have to serve really big.

Wow. That is the kind of return he wants. Again, the serve is going to

set that shot up. He needs to cut that slice little

more, not let it float. It gives Rosol time to get under it.

So, Rosol staying with him. You can see what happens when you lose your

balance. It is the biggest problem the tennis player would have. Once

that goes, you are in big trouble. That's what a big hitter does to

you. It unknown to you. Denise Lewis always had perfect balance.

What a rally! A surprise, but well done. This is a good reply. Take it

in the air. I don't know how often he will do that. He made Rafa hit a

very tough pass. Fantastic! What a pick-up. The

return had to be hit at 100 miles an hour. Look at that. This is why he

has got such a light racket, so that you can generate that speed in a

flash. Slotted that home calmly. Here is

the previous point. Look at that, it was virtually a half-volley. The

first car I saw that do that consistently was Andre Agassi. He

somehow made it look easy. UMPIRE: Game, Nadal. Nadal leads by

three games to two, first set. SUE BARKER: And we will be straight

back with this match on Centre in a moment. Kei Nishikori is through

comfortable in straight sets over the qualifier from the United

States, Denis Kudla. He goes through to face either Kohlschreiber or

Simone Bolelli in the next round. And Milos Raonic is also through in

straight sets against Jack Sock of the United States. He has gone

through 6-3, 6-4, 6-4. So, the number eight seed goes

through there. A couple of updates to bring you. Gael Monfils is in

trouble, two sets to love down now against your Reeva silly -- Jiri

Vesely. That is on the red button. But no problems the Serena Williams,

4-1 up against Chanelle Scheepers, that match also on the red button.

We will continue to keep you up-to-date. Back we go to Centre.

SIMON REED: He has got some tapes there. We are still on serve.

It doesn't seem to be impinging on making his shot. Not at all.

He wants to continue to be unpredictable. Nadal will not expect

him to serve and volley. A big tattoo there on the leg.

That has to be painful, on the calf. Not as much muscle. If tattoos were

round when you were starting you would have had one. I do have a

couple. Do you? You can see why he is so difficult

and point. He has some major firepower.

-- point. Did you have a bogey opponent who came out of left side

and mugged you? I saw a guy like Boris berk, who was 17, 16-year-old,

who is this guy? -- Becker. Big, strong, you know, serving a tonne. I

didn't realise he would be that good. I knew he was going to be

good. Seven Wimbledon finals later...

Olympic champion quietly contempt mating that magnificent effort.

-- contemplating. It is not much compromise, is there

from Rosol? That is the way he has to play. Keep the point short, not

let Nadal relax, get in a real rhythm.

First set they played here two years ago went to a tie-break.

Forehand finishing that, a lot people reckon his forehand is the

best ever, do you go along with that? I think that is certainly

arguable. If you look at the way he is able to manoeuvre himself round

the court. The footwork, the side stepping that he does, to get - look

at this, to get himself in position, to get over there and he, nowadays,

the players put weight on their back foot, and they push off their back

foot, as we were taught, take the shorter swing, and then move forward

and have your weight on your front foot. But they figured out a way to

give themselves maybe that extra split second of time, which allows

them to sort of purr ruse court that bit more, and then they deliberately

got much lighter racquet, smaller grips, with this unbelievable

racquet head speed that causes, you have never seen a guy hit top-spin

like this. He does it time and again. The most admirable part to me

is the footwork, the way he moves round and how quickly it is so much

more difficult you would think. Try it. Go out there and try do what he

does. Yes. Forget hitting the ball. To get yourself in that position

that quick. You don't have a whole lot of time when you are playing

guys like Lukas Rosol. New balls now. Trying to impose

himself somehow on this guy's serve. You can see the new balls really

moving. That is the hardest he has hit. 130 there.

Rafa can't get anything going on the Rosol serve at the moment. That is

exactly what he couldn't want -- doesn't want to happen. He doesn't

with to allow Rosol to not have much stress. He wants to make him work.

This is unlike Nadal, to see a game end in like a minute. Usually, gets

himself, figures out a way to at least work the guy over a bit. Make

him move. Hard to do it with Rosol. Whoa! Now there's trouble. It has

shifted to Rosol. I don't know why he just guided this. He would have

gone off it more regardless of where he hit it. He gave Rosol too good a

look. Yes. He realises it.

Wow, he is going to challenge. I don't think that was in, he should

challenge at this stage, at love 30. Rum UMPIRE:

Mr Rosol is challenging. It was called in as Rosol is challenging.

It's in. You see that same type of serve this

next point. See how far his left Rosol goes to cut it off. It look

like there is an opening if he slices it short.

Just missed. Oh! Here is Rosol with two break

points. One he will be serving for the set.

As big a forehand as he has hit. The fact he could find that, attack that

is amazing. Especially when you are down double break point.

Is he going to go wide again? That is brave. Rosol was hoping double

again. Of course he was going wide, he should have stepped in and ripped

it. Gone for it. That is his style. Tight there himself.

So that return has earned him a third chance.

Now where is he going to stand? He upset Rafa a bit from all this

movement. In his receiving position. But he has got the break.

Could lightning possibly strike twice in the same place.

Well, we continue to be amazed, but the way he has picked it up, he

settled in. I think Rafa's sense in the beginning, clearly this guy was

more wound up, but he count take advantage, when it got to be two

allish, suddenly he started making impact, with that power. Height and

weight of shot, and that was a big time game, to break the new balls

really seemed to help him off his serve, he just, he bummed Nadal out.

God, this guy's good, man. "I don't like this: Now I'm having

nightmares." Memories coming back Why just against me? That is what he

is thinking. "Why do I get these draws?" If any

guy will figure a way out of it, it will be Nadal. He had the chance to

take set lead which didn't happen last time. Serving for the set,

after half an hour, just... Rosol is starting to love it out

here. He can't stop having winner. It is like the fifth set last time

round. By the way, as we lock at triple set

point, his career Grand Slam record, coming to this match is eight wins,

12 losses. -- look. And he has just won the

first set. And looking frighteningly good by

the end of it. First set in 33 minutes.

It was in the last ten minutes that he suddenly stepped it up. You can

see what happens when a guy relaxes and finds himself and settles down,

and if you are 6'5. These are the type of guys, when you lock at John

Isner, I know, I tell you the guys in a draw, Isner, Raonic, to a

lesser degree, obviously much lesser, Rosol. Where you are not in

charge, where you are assuming, and they do most of the time, the better

guys less, beat themselves. Stepanek, the guy just, he is

annoying to play. He knows how to compete, and get the crowd worked

up, and, I would rather not deal with that. Let someone else beat

him. Save my energy for when I really need it, but now all of a

sudden, Nadal. If you look at his draw, he has to have the toughest.

Klizan came to play, there is another guy, a big guy, you have

Rosol, you have got... Janowicz. He is not, he, that would be the semis

but he has like a guy like Raonic is his quarter. Kei Nishikori, Gasquet

has pedigree on grass, Monfils is out there. He is the winner of that

match. That is just to get to the semis.

This is tense times for Nadal. He puts so much effort into winning the

French. I wondered whether getting bundled

out early on might have been a blessing in disguise. At the moment

it is not looking like that. Two years ago when he lost to Rosol,

he didn't pick up a racket for seven month, the knee was a problem. I

don't know if that was coincidence, but that was it.

Two years ago he went to see the knee doctor, tomorrow if he loses

this, he will be seeing a psychiatrist! Psychiatrist! If he

loses to this guy again. Talk about luck of the draw.

Just leaned on that front leg and away it went. It is well timed.

Nadal second serve is hittable. He is really taking advantage.

Rosol is on a high at the moment. The first unforced error for a

little while. He has been smacking winners left,

right and centre. SUE BARKER: Here on two we are

leaving Centre Court, if you want to watch this, you can, it continues

now over on BBC One. We head over to another number one, Serena Williams

is on Court Number One against Chanelle Scheepers of South Africa.

Serena in control here, no problems for her, 6-1, 3-0 up. We can join

our commentators out there. Martina Navratilova is alongside

our commentators out there. Martina Navratilova Chris Brad Haddin. In

devastating form Serena Williams as she was in the. 16 aces from the

greatest server. Many say of all time.

No joy for Scheepers. Broken in her first service game. It set the scene

in this match. From the beginning.

For all of that, Serena has her match face on, she is so focussed on

getting this job done. She has had one expression on her face the whole

match. You would not know when she won the point, lost the point, after

she won the first set 6-1 she sat that stone faced. She closed her

eyes or read noerts. She has been very work man like today.

A very comfortable lead. She is on cruise control today.

Beaten early at the French, asked when she got here how long she had

taken to get over it. She shot back "Who says I was over it?" Some

losses you never get over, but at least that one you arrange quickly,

so Wimbledon is so quickly after the French Open, that is great for

Serena she has this opportunity on her favourite surface.

You can turn an iffy year into a great year by winning here. It

happened in 2012. Lost the first round, the first time she has gone

out first round in a major and lost three matches only in the next 12

months. Won her fifth Wimbledon here.

Singles and doubles. Stanford, Olympic Gold, singles and doubles.

Season ends championships. Got the number one ranking back after making

semis in Doha last year. Oldest world number one on record. So watch

out. Nice. The ninth time she has won

just about all the points there in very aggressive from the ground,

moll allows Scheepers to get shots for her. When the opportunity comes

moving forward very well. Doubles her account. Half a smile.

Big cheer from the number one court crowd.

We talked earlier, Serena, her biggest opponent the mirror. Can you

understand, with how great she, she sometimes beats herself? When you

get older you get more nervous, your time is coming to an end, and you

don't have that many opportunities so you stress about that. Your

appreciation for the game grows, your passion for it, so it means

more, and then as Serena is going through it, I went through it, for

the most part you were in control. You are the best player out there,

it is up to you, you get the glory when you win, you get the blame when

you lose, good news, bad news, you are so good that anything but

winning is a failure, so, it puts a lot of pressure on you, you never

get away from the pressure until you retire, because even if you win a

tournament, there is a next one. You are expected to win that too.

Everywhere she goes. Expectations are self imposed as well as world

imposed. To become world number one, they are all Gunning for you. Serena

Williams makes headlines when she loses, more so than when she wins.

Scheepers is out very early to resume. With a bit a breeze. Serena

Williams set and 4-1. Backhand has been in good form. That

is the best shot of the match for Scheepers throughout. The only time

she has been able to get the ball past Serena Williams, that was the

only time she was set for the shot, took the pace off, rolled it

crosscourt. That is her best shot. Her backhand. It has been going well

today. Forehand not so much but the backhand has been there.

That was her coach, I would tell her to tighten up her destroyings a bit.

But nice overhead from Serena Williams. That is an uncomfortable

shot. Hit it up in the air like that.

-- her strings a bit. Everything has been so well

controlled by Serena's day. She has only used the left hand once to calm

herself down. A spread left hand? A couple of gaming a. I missed that, I

have seen the fist pump but I didn't see the spread hand. It cracks me up

when she does that. It says so much, doesn't it. That her vet. That

should be and ace. Yes, it is. The umpire making the correct

correction and call, in that the ball was passed. Scheepers had no

bearing on her being able to get the ball back, so eighth ace for Serena

Williams. That would have been a 123mph first

serve, if she missed it. Quite a variety on that first serve, in

pace. See that one slice out wide, 96.

That is a 25mph difference. You don't know if it is is a bullet

coming at you or a big spinner. So just 47 minutes Scheepers serving

to stay in the match. It is her fifth Wimbledon main draw,

the first time she had won a main draw match. It was a huge day.

They are both listed at 5'nine. They looked the same -- 5'9. Serena is

hitting her second serve as hard as Scheepers is hitting her first

serve. What I am impressed with, Serena has

been very controlled emotionally, but also her game is well balanced

today. She has been disciplined with her

shots. Putting the ball cleanly in the middle. She was looking to see,

Serena was looking to see if the ball came in, thought maybe she

missed it out, stayed in the corner and able to hit a winner

down-the-line. Too good. We said it would be about

50 minutes. We are at 49 minutes now, first match point for Serena

Williams. That will do it! UMPIRE: Game, set and match Miss

Williams. Chanelle Scheepers' big day ends in

disappointment. She is still very much the one to beat. A lot of

players have been holding one finger up in the air, but she really can do

it, because she is number one. A matter-of-fact performance. Never

close to break point, the closest she got to losing her serve was

15-30, once. A comprehensive win at every level. Confident. Chanelle

Scheepers just happy that she won a game in each set.

APPLAUSE Finished her doubles at nine o'clock

last night, a quick turnaround. But it made no difference whatsoever. 49

minutes to back-up the 61 minutes on Tuesday, third on Centre Court,

sending out very good messages after the earlier departure in Paris.

Absolutely. Hitting all the shot is well, well-balanced in every which

way, emotionally, mentally, physically. 26 winners, seven

unforced error is, that is a clean match. She will be happy to have the

afternoon off and reset for another day. Two years ago when she won

here, her fifth title, she hit more aces in the tournament than any man

throughout Championships. That is amazing. Present company excluded,

the greatest server of all time. No, she is the best, even including me.

A quick match for the number one Court crowd. But they have a chance

to see one of the all-time great in action. It is always a thrill for so

many. 17 majors, five here, the only thing she hasn't done, she has done

the Serena slammed, holding all four majors at one time, is to do the

Grand Slam. It is a beautiful day again here in NSW 19. -- S W 19. And

here she is with Phil Jones. Serena, well played. You out Court lace last

night -- late last night in a doubles match. It was a super fun

doubles match last night, I love doubles here, it is so much fun. I'm

sure the whole world saw the pictures where you went careering

into the crowd. No harm done. Some wonderful gents caught me yesterday,

it was so funny, I just started laughing. It was so embarrassing, I

just had to laugh about it. It is great to see you having fun here and

to see you playing so well. What is it like for you when people are

already putting you week two is a five-time, you're expected to win.

How does that feel for you? It is tough, because it is every week for

the past two and a half years. To be favourite can be a pressure, but I

have learned to deal with it, and I would rather look at it that way

than any other. And you get to enjoy the moment when you come off court,

and you like to give your crowd your time back. I have been coming here

over a decade, and it is so great to see my fans and supporters,

especially the kids. It makes me feel really good. It is great to see

you here, keep up the good form, and no more falls in the crowd! Thank

you. SUE BARKER: She was only on court

for 49 minutes there, but a super performance from Serena, who has

come here on a mission. You would be brave to bet against her winning her

18th Grand Slam title. What a champion she has been, and a

champion's performance today. So, the world number one safely through

to round three. And she will face in the next round

Alize Cornet of France, who went through in three sets against Petra

Cetkovska. You can bet she will be on a big show caught by her next

match as she takes on the world number one.

While Serena has been going safely through, look at this. Rafael

Nadal, the men's world number one, is struggling. He has lost the first

set to Lukas Rosol, and is a break down in the second, against the man

who would imagine the Championships two years ago. That match Oberon BBC

One. On the red button, you can see which a gas -- Richard Gasquet

against Nick Kyrgios, and on court 17, Philipp Kohlschreiber is into

the fifth and final set with Simone Bolelli of Italy, you can follow

that match online. The struggle for the 22nd seed. But here on two,

we're going to head out to court 12 to see Gael Monfils who is

struggling against Jiri Vesely. He has served the biggest serve of the

tournament so far, hundred and 43 mph. -- 143 mph. Your commentators

are Mark Sellers and Ronald McIntosh.

Producing a forehand winner after that 12 stroke rally.

He has been pulled all corners of the court by Monfils.

He has reduced the number of unforced errors as the match has

progressed. A clever serve thereby Monfils,

taking the pace off, opening up the court. It remains on serve here in

set number four. First court. It remains on serve here in

set number four. free set were decided by tie-break, but that

doesn't begin to tell the story, because in the first two, the effort

and application of this man was inconsistent to say the least. Some

strokes didn't even appear to try, playing shots by hind his back in

the middle of around a when the game was still up for grabs, constant

conversation with the umpire and the crowd, tossed his racket into the

crowd in frustration at one point. All of his problems appear to be

behind him. We have mentioned the problems that

Monfils appears to be having. Vasely, just 20 years of age, did

very well to remain focused and remain in the match. He has fought

back to take it tie-break. Evasive action taken by spectators

here on court 12! Monfils has raised his game to a different level now.

The sort of play that we're used to seeing from him, a fine return.

The trusty serve coming to his aid, it has been a feature of the match.

A typical left-handed slice, this time down the middle. You can see

Monfils really ruling that he missed that opportunity there. He is

seriously competitive now. He wasn't in the early part of the match.

What a return! A blistering crosscourt forehand from Monfils.

This looked as though it was going to be a difficult shot by Vasely,

but the shot Monfils plays there really is a rabbit out of the hat.

Well done, excellent serve, that one. He has served well. He is a big

server, six foot six in height. The power of the serve, the variation of

it, moved through the air, so much slice.

UMPIRE: Vasely leaves five games to fall, fourth set. He overcame a 0-30

deficit, ultimately a very impressive hold to remain on serve

here in the fourth set. That was the moment where the serve was held in

the ninth game. He has only lost his serve once in the match, in actual

fact, and that was in the third set. He was in the enviable position of a

set and 3-1 up. He had 0-40 on Monfils's serve. And Monfils

produced an extraordinarily good shot, he was in command at that

stage. UMPIRE: Time.

His game was raised. He looked in the doldrums, didn't look as if it

really mattered at all. And then suddenly he caught fire, and all of

a sudden he has taken the third set, and it is a hugely important match

now. It is terrifically exciting. It really is difficult to overstate

just how disinterested Monfils appeared at times during the opening

set. Circus shots were attempted. Completely devoid of intent. But all

of his troubles seem to be behind him now.

Monfils needs to hold to stay in the match here.

You would anticipate that this return was going to be a winner.

Monfils takes extra big strides to get to it.

In double quick time, Monfils hold serve. He is just taking time to sit

in an official's chair is the new balls are moved from the canisters.

They have been on court for more than two and a half hours now. 11th

game, fourth set, Vasely to serve. So, the new balls likely to add a

little bit more pop to the serve of Vasely. He has already served 143

miles an hour today. UMPIRE: Tech Mac one leads by six

games to five, fourth set, and by two sets to one.

He is climbing rapidly, 65 places in terms of his computer ranking, not

so long out of the junior game, Vasely. He got to the finals of the

US Junior Championships, played well in other junior championships, but

this is a real back has no experience for him today, -- a

baptism of experience. He really should have won the early set, but

then Monfils caught fire, and he needs to respond to that, and he is

doing so admirably. Monfils perhaps finding a tougher opponent than he

anticipated. Given the manner in which he played

the opening two sets of this match, he didn't appear to have much

interest in going deep into the tournament at all. His sixth

appearance at Wimbledon the Monfils, the first Vasely. Monfils attempting

to better progress. Vasely is asking the question,

nonverbally. It was called out. He immediately looked at the umpire and

the officials. Monfils is making the game look

incredibly easy at the moment. UMPIRE: Tie-break.

So, for the fourth successive set, we enter the lottery of the

tie-break. And in the last one, Monfils really caught fire, he won

it 7-1. Well, that is an expensive error,

really. The crowd very much in support of Monfils. He is an

entertaining player. He tries eccentric shop, and they come off.

-- eccentric shots. That was an important point for

Vasely to win. Somewhat angry that he didn't hold those two points on

his serve, Monfils. He is into double figures on the ace

count now, Vasely. So much variety is his primary weapon.

Well, it was very close, very close indeed, but I think it was just

wide. An excellent rally, both players

hitting ferocious ground strokes. Vasely has bounced back to 3-2. Ace

number 18 Monfils. Encouraging applause for both

players now, two hours and 40 minutes.

Yes, what a pity. This may cost in the set, that shot. -- cost him the

set. So, set point the Monfils as helix

to force the decider. -- as he looks to force a decider.

UMPIRE: Seven games to six, two sets all.

SUE BARKER: We will keep you up-to-date with this, it is going

the distance. You can watch the fifth set on the red button. If you

want to continue watching, watch it on the red button. This is currently

over and BBC One, Rafael Nadal in trouble. He lost the opening set to

Lukas Rosol, was a break of serve down, but it is heading to a

tie-break. That is on BBC One. On Court number three, Ana Ivanovic,

former world number one, up against Jie Zheng who has won the doubles

here at Wimbledon. She has taken the first set, Ivanovic. That is online.

On Court 17, Philipp Kohlschreiber up against Simone Bolelli, and that

is 4-3 in the fifth and final set, a real battle out on court of Dean.

You can follow that online. -- court 17. But we are going to head to

Court Number Two to see Richard Gasquet up against Nick Kiri -- Nick

Virg -- Kyrgios. A host of green and gold clad young men and women here,

making more and more noise is Kyrgios has forced his way back into

contention. It was all Gasquet for the first hour and a half as he took

the first two sets, but then Kyrgios began to find his stride. He served

for the fourth set, we are in set five, two hours and 42 minutes of

compelling tennis. Richard Gasquet, waiting for the crowd to settle.

It only seems fitting that this match is going into a third set. --

a fifth set. Tremendous serving. Some fantastic play. And on show has

been the Richard Gasquet backhand. He has also delivered 19 aces.

this year's Championship draw, just 19 years of age, really trying to

make a name for himself at the Grand Slams.

Gasquet gets off the mark in the final set.

So that is where we are at the southern end of the court. It is

called the wok, because it is sunken, and it is hot. Any other

occasion they plays each other was the Davis Cup tie. France beat

Australia 5-0 but these two played. Gasquet won in three sets. Kyrgios

to serve, the wild card. Oh, wild shot there.

Needs to maintain his intensity and his focus and concentration here.

Big hitting from Kyrgios. Gasquet doing everything to stay with him

here, in this point, eventually is forced into a backhand error.

Jtsds the fob hand let him down. -- the forehand let him down. His 11th

unforced error on that. Gentle backhand, keeping it low and

flat. Giving Gasquet no chance.

An importantly not overplaying the backhand there, Kyrgios. Shot

selection has been vital to him in this match. He has many options.

Ace number 13 from Kyrgios, the second on his second serve. Two sets

is aller one game all in the fifth. -- two sets is all.

-- two sets all. Oh yes, there is it -- it is. One of

the great shots in world tennis at the moment.

Gasquet single-handed backhander. The idea was right, from Kyrgios,

but just not anywhere near enough intensity and Hustle, to get into a

good volley position, not against a backhand like that.

Gasquet reached the final at Eastbourne last week. Loves to Lopez

on the Saturday afternoon -- lost. He has a good run on grass.

Kyrgios plays a challenger in Nottingham and won the tournament,

lower level event. -- played.

So both men came into Wimbledon with good grass court warm up matches

behind them. Good work from Gasquet. Back

peddling, trying to get his body away from the ball.

Fired the forehand down-the-line. Nice to see Richard Gasquet bag

playing again, he didn't play at all between Indian Wells this year and

the French. So that is quite a time off. He had a back injury. Even

right up until his first round at the French was undecided about

whether he was going to play or not. But he has obviously recovered well

from it. Also Nick Kyrgios had his problems

with injuries this year, he was out for a couple of months after the

Australian circuit. Kyrgios has had a visit from the trainer, the

physiotherapist was out at the start of the match. Looking after his left

knee. He seems to have run through that problem quite well now, looking

pretty comfortable round the court. Moving nicely, both men have down

plenty of running out here. And they play at a ferocious pace.

Kyrgios. Behind in the final set. One-2 -- 1-2.

Sebastien Grosjean, the former tour player himself and the coach of

Gasquet. Good tennis. Great depth. Good use

of the court. Body serve. Pet I quick as well.

124mph, not far short of his quickest. Pretty quick as well.

129. She is a big man but at times, he

has a gentle touch. Well held. -- he is a big man.

19-year-old Nick Kyrgios holding his own against the experienced Richard

Gasquet, 28 years of age. Celebrated his birthday just last week.

All square. Two sets is all. Two games all.

A little bit of a shout of celebration there from Kyrgios.

Gasquet 20th ace. He is look for the same ball again. It is one of his

mannerisms. He if serves is an ace, he will seek out the same ball and

hope for another. That was a chance for Kyrgios.

The right idea, wasn't it, Kyrgios just went after that forehand, just

hitting the tape. Well left. That was close.

So they are racing through the early part of this final set.

No brains of serve, no break points yet.

-- breaks of serve. Duration of the match approaching

three hours. Richard Gasquet won an lip pick

medal here at Wimbledon in 2012. In the men's doubles alongside Julian

Benneteau, defeated the Spanish pair of Ferrer and Lopez to win that

medal. He has gone for a fresh racket here, hot afternoon.

Hardly any breeze as wellful the flags round the court flying limply

at the moment. Nick Kyrgios is standing up. He has done that for

the last few seconds. He stand up, has a banana and has a drink, then

keep on going. Possibly something do with his knee perhaps? He doesn't

want to sit down and strain it. We have had a fantastic atmosphere

out here, since the match kicked off just after 11.30. The crowds have

groan. No-one is going in I where -- grown. No-one is going in I where

now. That is an ace. To kick things off in the sixth game of the final

set. Kyrgios needs top tread carefully,

taking the time to towel down at 15-30. Gasquet is beginning to

prowl. Frenchman is dancing. Ready to

receive here. The second serve, can Gasquet do

some damage here and create a break point?

Thumping forehand from the Australian! Gasquet just doing

everything he could to stay in this point, the backhand, the first one

and then the next one and couldn't get anywhere near that huge forehand

from Kyrgios. Tremendous hitting. Did you hear what Nick said? "I have

no idea what I am doing out here." He not that wrong. It is the second

serve. -- he got that wrong.

It's out. He is going to challenge again. I think it is out though. I

think it just misses from Kerrs you His second visit upstairs in quick

succession. -- Kyrgios. The first one wrong, we

think he has this one. It's in! Wow. Thank goodness for the review

system. Yes.

Oh, what a backhand, Gasquet apologises for the fact it clipped

the net, but it made no difference, it was a winner all the way.

UMPIRE: Deuce, Mr Kyrgios has two challenges remaining.

There is not much support for Richard Gasquet out here, they are

appreciative of his backhand when it is in full flow, but the majority of

the Court Two spectators are behind the Australian.

What a pass from Gasquet. I think Kyrgios thought he was going

to get away with this here it was a serve volley off temperature second,

he couldn't get enough on the volley, to get itia from that man

there, who whipped the forehand up the line.

Didn't have much space there, but he found it.

He is catching Gasquet on the ace counts. 15 for Kyrgios.

Gasquet on 20. He has been troublesome for the

Australian. Gasquet is there.

We talked about it throughout this match. And that wasn't a good shot

for Kyrgios to hit here, certainly not to that man's backhand side.

Just thought he would catch him by surprise but Gasquet was ready for

it. Great stuff. Down the centre.

Gasquet had no idea where that was going.

I can't split them in this final set. Three games all. Two sets all.

Three hours and three minutes of fabulous

Three hours and three minutes of grass court tennis.

Right on the centre line from Gasquet. Number 21.

A terrific return that was, to shorten the back swing, Kyrgios

almost got jammed and created the angle. Took the pace off the shot.

There it is in again. Yet another glorious single band hand from the

Frenchman -- backhand from the Tremendous preparation with that

backhand, just technically perfect. UMPIRE: Ball is called out. This is

definitely worth a channel. It will be more out than in but I think it

got a piece -- a challenge. . He got it right last time in this zone. He

has got it right again. Another call is overturned. Richard

Gasquet is under a little bit of pressure here on serve.

We haven't heard much from Gasquet, but he followed ace up with a cry of

celebration. He seeks out the same ball. Hoping

for more of the same at 40-30. His 22nd ace.

Nafrgets is nowhere near. Gasquet is back ahead, four games to

three in the fifth. -- That is nowhere near.

So a change of ballboys here. There is Sebastien Grosjean, twice a

semifinalist here. He has coached Richard Gasquet by

the double Roland Garros champion, who was with him in Eastbourne but

isn't here this week at Wimbledon. He may join in the fun if Richard

progresses through to the second week. Gasquet once again regripping

his racket, and we have a variety of hats on show. Some shop bought, some

home-made. Gasquet does this regularly throughout the matches.

Grips his racket. Reyip grips it. Half way up the handle. You can see

the flared butt of the racket. More like a baseball bat. It must be

custom made for him. If it makes you hit a backhand like

Richard Gasquet even would have a big butt on the end of their racket.

Wouldn't that. Kyrgios to Pace of shot.

# There has been 28 winners off that side, to Kyrgios.

That too far from Gasquet. The umpire called not out. That is why

Gasquet looked at him. It looked good to me.

Just wide. Right shot from the Australian, because Gasquet was

stranded on the other side of the court, but he missed it by a couple

of inches. 117mph down the middle of the court.

Four games all in the final set. No tie-break in the final set. Open

ended possible fifth set here. Nick Kyrgios, he has only played one

five set match and that was at the Australian Open in the second round,

when he was up two sets to love and he lost in five, to Paire. He has

never come from two love down to win a five set match. If he achieved it

-- achieves it today it would be a first. New balls coming out for

Richard Gasquet. Four games all. Final set, where

will it take us now? That is a lovely shot from Gasquet.

Wonderful control. Pressure here after this change of

end for Nick Kyrgios, he will be serving to stay in this second round

match. Staying on his feet again during the change over.

Nick Kyrgios involved in some light hearted conversation with the

umpire. He doesn't want to loiter by his chair at all. He hasn't sat down

for a long time now, on the change of end, Nick Kyrgios, happier to

munch on a banana standing up and having a sip of water, tail off and

he is ready to get into it again. The match has been played at a brisk

pace throughout. Good to see. fantastics and his connections

wanted. Love 15. 4-5, final set. He need a big serve

here. Love 30. A bit of afters from

Richard Gasquet as he played the overhead. Two points from victory

the Frenchman. A bit cautious here Kyrgios. Doesn't have the same pace

of shot off either side. three match points.

The fanatics in their green and gold, doing their very best to

motivate their man. Is it too late. That was well played by Nicky reels.

By Nick Kyrgios. He has missed that. Now that is something for Nick

Kyrgios to think about. 15-0. That is horribly short. Another much

point. -- match point. Nick Kyrgios has already saved three match points

but can he said another one? -- can he save another one? Yes, he can.

way that Richard Gasquet could have won that point. That opened up the

door. Match point neighbour five. -- number five. It is a double fault.

It is being challenged. This would be a dreadful way for this riveting

match to end. But it will be checked by the Hawk-eye system. And it is

in! I am not too sure of what Prichard

Gascony is complaining about. There is nothing that he can do. --

Reichard cascade. It will be a first serve. It is still match point. We

go again. Goodness me! For a split second, I

thought that he had not given it enough power. There are not too many

free seats in the house now. It is a white knuckle ride now.

That is a great shot. It was varied deep in the shot. -- in the court. A

great way to respond to those people in the crowd who were winding him

up. Richard Gasquet has another match

point. UMPIRE: Nick Kyrgios challenging the

call. I would not do this between Serbs. -- between Serbs.

The trademark shot let him down. Nine can -- times out of ten you

would bang on him to make that shot. -- bank on him.

Goodness me. That was brave and it was lucky. He hit a tough shot. It

hit the net cord. What a game this one is! We have had a little bit of

everything in this game. He has overcooked the backhand once

again and Nick Kyrgios survives. That was tremendous. This young

boy, he is only 19 years of age. He really is. He is up against a former

semifinalist here at Wimbledon. The backhand is on display

immediately. Richard Gasquet is going to the ball

boys who are at the net. It is very tense all there. -- out there. That

is his 25th ace. Nick Kyrgios is just a little bit in

patient. He wants to trade a fume or ground strokes with his opponent. --

a few more ground strokes. SUE BARKER:. What a match this is! We

will join it again shortly. Ana Ivanovic is through. Simone Bolelli

come of what a story this is! He has beaten Philipp Kohlschreiber. That

matched took over three hours. That -- that match lasted.

COMMENTATOR: the players are coming back onto Court Number Two. Nick

Kyrgios to serve to stay in the match. The final set.

That is wide. Richard Gasquet has played 20 five set matches over the

course of his career. He has got lucky again. They said these things

even out, but that has not been the case today. It has mostly been in

the favour of Nick Kyrgios today. He has been doubly lucky.

Nick Kyrgios played that straight back to his opponent. That was an

absolute gift. Just a little bit cautious, wasn't he?

He made sure about that. That was a great tactic. We had not seen that

too many times in this match. But that was an important shop. -- and

important shot. That was tricky. Straight off the top of the court

surface. Richard Gasquet has his seventh match point.

Nick Kyrgios was just hanging in there. Eventually he was able to

attack. That was in -- an absolutely lovely

return! Plenty of movement through the a on

that second serve. And Nick Kyrgios has said seven

match points along the way. -- has saved.

Richard Gasquet is prowling. He is taking his time to prepare.

It is long. Nick Kyrgios can sense a real opportunity here.

It is long. Nick Kyrgios can sense a He has been under so much pressure

with his own serve, he has not had that any opportunities on the serve

up his opponent. -- of his opponent. That hurt, is what he said. I will

bet that it did. That is great work! Absolutely

wonderful. That is really appreciated by this crowd on Court

Number Two. An excellent drop shot. He puts that barley away and there

is the response. Break point. You could hear a pin drop is that

point was played. There was far too much on that from the Australian

player. That was his signature shot to the

rescue. He is back in front. The cameras are here trying to capture

an important moment. COMMENTATOR: what a match this is! Let's show you

what is happening on Centre Court. Rabe Nadal is in the driving seat.

He is already up a break of serve in the fourth set. -- Rafael Nadal.

That match is live over on BBC1 now. Here is what is happening on Court

16. Tommy Robredo is out there. He is two sets up against his French

opponent. You can follow that match online. And Stanislas Wawrinka is on

Court Number One at the moment. He is ranked number three in the world.

He has taken the first set but it is a real battle all. -- real battle

out there. Sabine Lisicki is out on Court Number Three. That is online.

You are up-to-date. Now we will go back to Court Number Two.

COMMENTATOR: serving to stay in this match once again.

Ray Shah cascade is making his opponent run and run in the late

stages of this match. -- Richard Gasquet.

Nick Kyrgios is forcing his way back into this game. His opponent got

somewhat defensive there. Just a little bit curveball. Yes,

caution was required. He is in trouble again. An eighth match

point. None of these match point have been

on the serve of Richard Gasquet. number nine. Is Nick Kyrgios running

out of luck? just loving it. This man has his

back to the wall. That serve reached 124 miles an hour.

How was that for a second serve? It was courageous.

A change of direction. Nick Kyrgios did not see that one coming. The

third use of the game. 25th backhand winner of the match.

For anyone else, it backhand shot like that is risky.

It is long. It is 8-8 in the final set. All these match point is, they

have to be starting to play on the mind of Richard Gasquet. Three hours

and 48 minutes. It has been a compelling match.

Nick Kyrgios got back in behind that. Well played!

He took a little bit of the case of the forehand. He thought that across

the court. Richard Gasquet is showing some
