:00:17. > :00:48.Welcome once again to Wimbledon It is men's quarterfinals day. Coming

:00:49. > :00:52.up on Centre Court Andy Murray will be taking on Grigor Dimitrov. If

:00:53. > :01:01.they are not lucky enough to get a ticket for Centre Court, they are

:01:02. > :01:05.out on the hill. Everybody is taking their place. It is a big day for

:01:06. > :01:11.Andy Murray. That is the pick of the quarterfinals as far as the men are

:01:12. > :01:16.concerned. As a bonus, we have two ladies' quarterfinals matches. It

:01:17. > :01:22.looks like Simona Halep will book her place in the last four. That

:01:23. > :01:26.match is on Centre Court and you can watch it on the red button. Here, we

:01:27. > :01:32.are going to Court Number One, to see the new sensation as far as the

:01:33. > :01:41.ladies are concerned, Eugenie Bouchard. She has a break up against

:01:42. > :01:45.Angelique Kerber, the player who put out Maria Sharapova yesterday. We

:01:46. > :02:06.can join this match with Tracy Austin and David Mercer.

:02:07. > :02:40.Bouchard has won six of the last seven games.

:02:41. > :02:46.Little hiccup in this game with a couple more unforced errors. I

:02:47. > :02:59.wonder if it is nervous? Bouchard claiming that the server

:03:00. > :03:35.was a fault. That exclamation from Angelique

:03:36. > :03:38.Kerber, because Bouchard is now taking chunks out of her second

:03:39. > :04:29.serve, attacking it remorselessly. Four gains in a row in this set now

:04:30. > :04:36.for Eugenie Bouchard. A semifinalist at the Australian Open, semifinalist

:04:37. > :04:43.at Roland Garros and barring something surprising, destined for a

:04:44. > :04:48.semifinal at Wimbledon. Really, an incredible break-out year for

:04:49. > :04:55.Bouchard. Along with Simona Halep, they win the Debbie Tate or, most

:04:56. > :05:02.wins in the majors tour. It rather looks as if Bouchard will play

:05:03. > :05:07.Simona Halep from what we understand to be the score on the Centre Court

:05:08. > :05:13.at the moment. What a match that will be between the two leaders of

:05:14. > :05:20.this new generation of women who are merging this year and posing a

:05:21. > :06:37.glorious challenge to the established stars.

:06:38. > :07:03.Nick Saviano was a real student of the game.

:07:04. > :07:09.Just when you thought Eugenie Bouchard was making Serena progress

:07:10. > :07:10.to the semis, three points to recover. One of the breaks for

:07:11. > :07:24.Kerber. She has got to get back to being

:07:25. > :08:09.aggressive. Perhaps two factors, one, I am so

:08:10. > :08:15.far behind, I have got to swing for it, second, maybe Bouchard will be

:08:16. > :08:30.getting the double break. Dropping her level for a moment.

:08:31. > :10:08.Bouchard lost her focus in that game.

:10:09. > :10:17.There is the athleticism of Bouchard to add to her other attributes.

:10:18. > :10:18.There is not much missing from her game. Only 20 and gaining experience

:10:19. > :11:09.so rapidly. Really well played point by both

:11:10. > :11:12.players showing a lot of diversity. So quick off the mark. Great racket

:11:13. > :12:08.management. Kerber wins successive games for the

:12:09. > :12:23.first time in the match. SUE BARKER: I am afraid we do have

:12:24. > :12:29.to leave this match on BBC Two because we will be heading over to

:12:30. > :12:33.Centre Court to see Andy Murray. But if you want to continue watching

:12:34. > :12:40.this one, it is on the red button. We will continue to update you over

:12:41. > :12:45.on BBC Two as well. Over on Centre Court, this happened a short time

:12:46. > :12:55.ago, Simona Halep serving at match point. She won 11 out of 12 games.

:12:56. > :12:59.Such a good performance from the number three seed. She is second

:13:00. > :13:04.favourite to take the title after Petra Kvitova. She is the first

:13:05. > :13:13.Romania woman through to the last four here at Wimbledon. Great

:13:14. > :13:21.celebrations around the court. Halep is through to the last four here at

:13:22. > :13:27.Wimbledon. That finished on Centre Court a short time ago. Coming up

:13:28. > :13:32.next, it is the defending champion Andy Murray against Grigor

:13:33. > :13:38.Dimitrov. This promises to be a stern test.

:13:39. > :13:51.I am excited. He is obviously a tough opponent. I want to win the

:13:52. > :13:59.match and I am sure he wants that as well. He is obviously playing very

:14:00. > :14:06.well. It will be a big step up. It is a home crowd on home soil. I have

:14:07. > :14:30.to accept that. It will be a battle out there.

:14:31. > :14:38.And that is where the battle will unfold, on Centre Court, a place

:14:39. > :14:48.that Murray now calls home. And a the image is hoping to pull off a

:14:49. > :14:56.big upset here today. -- Grigor Dimitrov. I am courtside with Jimmy.

:14:57. > :14:58.How much is the home factor? It is huge. It is the first time in 77

:14:59. > :15:03.huge. It is the first time in 7 years that you have a champion. Andy

:15:04. > :15:07.is feeling more comfortable with the crowd. Grigor Dimitrov is in for a

:15:08. > :15:13.tough afternoon because of the crowd. It will be a tough day for

:15:14. > :15:18.him. But Grigor Dimitrov has showed us at Queen 's club, and coming

:15:19. > :15:24.through to win the title, when you come in here confident, that is a

:15:25. > :15:33.bonus as well? Exactly. Play well at Queens but he has also won on every

:15:34. > :15:37.surface here. Andy, in my opinion, is the player who can mix shots up.

:15:38. > :15:47.He has the imagination to try different things. Dim a of is the

:15:48. > :15:55.same -- Grigor Dimitrov is the same. We have talked a lot about the

:15:56. > :15:57.physicality of the game. He has hired Roger Ishida as his coach He

:15:58. > :16:06.hired Roger Ishida as his coach. He is a physical specialist -- Roger

:16:07. > :16:12.Rashida. He can physically stay in the match longer. You can get to a

:16:13. > :16:16.certain level on your rain but if he has some DQ has been there and they

:16:17. > :16:20.can push you to another level, that is what is not easy, to be able to

:16:21. > :16:25.bring it out of you, so you understand it is doing not only you,

:16:26. > :16:36.but your game, some good. Rashid is that kind of guy. And it seems that

:16:37. > :16:43.he is pretty good to get along with as well. Dimitrov is only 25%

:16:44. > :16:51.there, that is what he said. That is brightening. Dangerous. If he can

:16:52. > :16:56.bring that other 75%, that would be tremendous. He is in a group with a

:16:57. > :16:59.lot of other young guys coming up. It will be interesting to see how he

:17:00. > :17:04.and the other young guys start meshing and playing the matches. The

:17:05. > :17:09.meshing and playing the matches The old guard with Federer, Nadal and

:17:10. > :17:11.Murray who is in that group, but the new young guys and how a

:17:12. > :17:17.get-together will be interesting as well. Here comes Andy. This is a

:17:18. > :17:22.route that he knows well. Here they come.

:17:23. > :17:52.A wonderful ovation for both players. Tim has joined us here.

:17:53. > :17:52.A wonderful ovation for both players. Tim has joined us here I

:17:53. > :17:58.players. Tim has joined us here. I think Andy is realising how much the

:17:59. > :18:06.victory last year meant to the whole nation. Absolutely. That has been

:18:07. > :18:14.something which I have noticed so much. We were here on the first day

:18:15. > :18:18.when John said, I wonder if he will get a standing ovation and that is

:18:19. > :18:23.what he got. The stadium was packed. The receptions have been

:18:24. > :18:28.fantastic. That is one thing from walking on the court. The support in

:18:29. > :18:33.matches has been incredible. He will need it today. Dimitrov is playing

:18:34. > :18:39.very well. We have seen the impact of the next generation and Murray

:18:40. > :18:42.will have to be on his game. Everyone was talking about Dimitrov

:18:43. > :18:50.and Raonic, and now everyone is talking about Nick Kyrgios. Dim a of

:18:51. > :18:57.-- Dimitrov is one that has been talked about for a while. It is time

:18:58. > :19:05.for him to start fulfilling his obligations. He has been talked

:19:06. > :19:08.about as the next great player and the next Wimbledon champion. Until

:19:09. > :19:16.you actually earn that title, it is all talk. He is stepping that up.

:19:17. > :19:24.That is his coach and trying to find his way into the booth. Roger has

:19:25. > :19:29.really lifted Dimitrov's believe but also his physical appearance. There

:19:30. > :19:33.has also been -- always been a massive amount of natural talent but

:19:34. > :19:38.it is also about adding the substance of that. It is mental and

:19:39. > :19:44.physical. He is growing into his body. You reflect on Andy Murray six

:19:45. > :19:50.or seven years ago. He was growing into his body and now he is a amend

:19:51. > :19:54.this athlete. Dimitrov is a work in progress. He will get physically

:19:55. > :19:59.stronger and learn from experience playing in the biggest and best

:20:00. > :20:10.events. He has a lot of improving to do and he is also a good player.

:20:11. > :20:18.That is what you said about having 25% and needing another 75%. Roger

:20:19. > :20:21.has never been good with numbers! Grigor Dimitrov has wonderful big

:20:22. > :20:26.shots and I think we will see a lovely tennis match today. It is

:20:27. > :20:32.fitting for the second week of Wimbledon. Beautiful tennis rather

:20:33. > :20:38.than a physical, hard-hitting affair? Movement, grace and elegance

:20:39. > :20:44.around the court. It is good for the setting. We know the guys can hit

:20:45. > :20:50.hard and play the big shots. To have an imagination, to be able to throw

:20:51. > :20:55.some other activities, some touch and feel into the match, it creates

:20:56. > :21:00.more interest in the tennis and brings the crowd into it. It will be

:21:01. > :21:05.a great afternoon. OK, let's have another look at this match. Phil

:21:06. > :21:10.Jones has been having a look at the head-to-head.

:21:11. > :21:14.It is a fascinating face-off, the face of a man the crowd wants to

:21:15. > :21:20.have a piece of and until recently, just a face in the crowd. No

:21:21. > :21:25.profiles do not come with Wimbledon territory. Since the first match, I

:21:26. > :21:30.have been trying to do the same things that I did last year. Trying

:21:31. > :21:36.to stay away from all of the newspapers and TV and the media and

:21:37. > :21:42.stuff that goes with it and just concentrate on the playing. The

:21:43. > :21:49.spotlight shone on Grigor Dimitrov via the spotlight of girlfriend

:21:50. > :21:54.Maria Sharapova. The Wimbledon last eight is a night of dazzling

:21:55. > :21:59.intensity. He is centre stage, ready or not. I am excited. It is the

:22:00. > :22:05.first thing that comes on to my mind. It is a quarterfinal match. It

:22:06. > :22:12.is a big venue for me. It is something to be really hyped about.

:22:13. > :22:16.I am here to play. It is a big opportunity for him, the

:22:17. > :22:19.quarterfinals of a slam. He is playing really well right now,

:22:20. > :22:28.winning Queens and had some good matches here as well. It will be a

:22:29. > :22:34.step up. I want this to be like habit to me. I am striving for that.

:22:35. > :22:39.An emotional moment for Andy Murray here on his return to the All

:22:40. > :22:46.England Club. Everything for him, the crowd, it is home soil. I know

:22:47. > :22:52.this is an inevitable thing, but I have to accept all that and play my

:22:53. > :22:56.game. You know it is nine sets, you win nine sets, you win the

:22:57. > :23:02.tournament but you have to play each one at a time, different opponents,

:23:03. > :23:09.different pressures, different game styles. You go out there and try and

:23:10. > :23:14.execute a game plan, hopefully play a good match. I want to win the

:23:15. > :23:19.match and I know he wants that too. It will be a battle out there. It

:23:20. > :23:23.will not be about anything else except the match. Let's hope for the

:23:24. > :23:27.best. And what about Greg on the big

:23:28. > :23:34.occasion. He has only ever been in one other Grand Slam court of final.

:23:35. > :23:39.The only way to gain experiences by getting into these type of

:23:40. > :23:44.situations. He is new to the bigger stage and here at Wimbledon, the

:23:45. > :23:49.first Grand Slam quarterfinal. I think the game plan for both players

:23:50. > :23:55.will be very interesting. It is very rare for a guy like Kerry is to come

:23:56. > :24:01.-- Kyrgios to calm and served through a player. Dimitrov has a

:24:02. > :24:12.good serve. It is about how he can really have an impact against Murray

:24:13. > :24:18.from the baseline. He has got so many great shots. He has a great

:24:19. > :24:24.number to choose from. Let's see them today. He has won matches and

:24:25. > :24:26.got into the second week now, he has got to feel confident out there.

:24:27. > :24:33.got to feel confident out there This is a different occasion. It is

:24:34. > :24:37.a big match for him. If he gets through this, this is really a

:24:38. > :24:41.career building win, if he can get into this match and into the

:24:42. > :24:49.semifinals at Wimbledon. To come out to then play the kind of tennis and

:24:50. > :24:54.use the imagination, and keep going. We saw it at Queens. He does now

:24:55. > :24:59.believe. There is no doubt. There has been a lot of talk and hype

:25:00. > :25:03.about Dimitrov and people looking for the next big star to come

:25:04. > :25:12.through. With the results he has had, winning Queens, coming on the

:25:13. > :25:17.back of those wins, he is now ready to deliver on an even bigger stage.

:25:18. > :25:22.That is what fascinates me. How he will implement a game style which

:25:23. > :25:27.can have an impact against Murray. When they do get into baseline

:25:28. > :25:32.rallies, for me, Murray has the firepower off his backhand to do

:25:33. > :25:37.some damage. It is whether Dimitrov can have an impact. Murray has given

:25:38. > :25:41.us so much to cheer about over the years. He is looking for his sixth

:25:42. > :25:44.consecutive Wimbledon semifinal. consecutive Wimbledon semifinal

:25:45. > :25:49.That should tell you that not only did he win last year, but he is

:25:50. > :25:53.comfortable. He has been comfortable for a long time. He has the crowd in

:25:54. > :26:01.his favour which is huge. And he has the confidence in his game to get

:26:02. > :26:09.through that. Six semis in a row is no easy task. We are all set for

:26:10. > :26:14.this quarterfinal. The umpire has called time so it is time for us to

:26:15. > :26:15.leave. Tim and Jimmy are on their way to the commentary box to join

:26:16. > :26:28.Mark Petchey. And the warm up is done. It is a

:26:29. > :26:35.beautiful day. It is a royal occasion as well. The Duke and that

:26:36. > :26:38.is of Cambridge are in attendance at the Wimbledon Championships. -- the

:26:39. > :28:17.Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. One American has quickly nipped into

:28:18. > :28:24.the commentary box. Hello, Jimmy. Delighted to be here. Are you

:28:25. > :29:21.pleased to see me as well? It is a good start. It is an

:29:22. > :29:30.important start as well for Dimitrov.

:29:31. > :30:30.mark, he saw the drop shot coming. I, Kintyre, no time for comedy out

:30:31. > :30:56.here for these two. -- Michael McIntyre.

:30:57. > :31:02.That is the predicament for Dimitrov when they get into base time

:31:03. > :31:11.rallies, if Murray can nullify the serve. Cans to backhand, is only one

:31:12. > :31:31.winner. -- backhand to backhand, there is only one winner.

:31:32. > :31:41.Good change of pace. It is interesting, I am watching them play

:31:42. > :31:47.at the beginning and they come out and they are moving and stroking the

:31:48. > :31:51.ball but I would also be looking to get in a bit inside the baseline

:31:52. > :32:01.rather than just settle in for a rally.

:32:02. > :32:06.Especially against Murray, you are right. If you are just standing back

:32:07. > :32:09.waiting for something to happen, he waiting for something to happen he

:32:10. > :32:13.has the variety to make things happen. It will be interesting to

:32:14. > :32:25.see if Dimitrov can get that balance right and keep the unforced error

:32:26. > :32:31.count down. He has advanced the net more often than any of the player at

:32:32. > :32:36.this stage of the tournament, Dimitrov, and he advances one small

:32:37. > :32:45.step in this match. Coming through on oh nine game -- and opening game,

:32:46. > :32:51.we can see the comparison. Unforced errors. Substantially higher for

:32:52. > :32:57.Dimitrov, and that backs up what she was saying, Tim. 155 winners, 8

:32:58. > :33:00.unforced errors is a good ratio. was saying, Tim. 155 winners, 8

:33:01. > :33:03.unforced errors is a good ratio But unforced errors is a good ratio. But

:33:04. > :33:08.against Murray with his movement and skills getting the ball back in

:33:09. > :33:13.play... You are not going to wear down Andy Murray, he is in good

:33:14. > :33:19.enough shape to play three sets of five, it does not matter to him. --

:33:20. > :33:35.or five. It is a warm day, the sun is shining.

:33:36. > :33:46.Murray is serving -- Murray's serving as well has been a

:33:47. > :33:51.revelation, 67% first serves and winning 83% of first serves. A great

:33:52. > :33:52.foundation for his return game when you are holding serve that

:33:53. > :34:19.comfortably. Pretty good effort from Dimitrov to

:34:20. > :34:27.try to recover his petition -- position. He likes to slide rather

:34:28. > :35:05.than steps that you will see Murray one -- Andy Murray making.

:35:06. > :35:12.A comfortable serving a game to start. -- serving game. Both players

:35:13. > :35:16.holding serve. Now the action begins. Look at that, a packed house

:35:17. > :35:30.inside and out. That is still your hill, Tim. It is

:35:31. > :35:33.never referred to ask out on the mound, it is always out on the hill.

:35:34. > :36:12.I rest my case! That is it! A couple of wealthy athletes out

:36:13. > :36:32.here, and rich in imagination of shots being produced.

:36:33. > :36:39.deep in the court. You had to be a good six feet behind the baseline, a

:36:40. > :37:10.pretty good effort. No fear there, was there? I was

:37:11. > :37:26.thinking, let it bounce, take your time.

:37:27. > :37:33.And a good start from Dimitrov in his first-ever quarterfinals at

:37:34. > :37:38.Wimbledon. Jimmy, you made your first in 1972 and you lost at it we

:37:39. > :37:43.-- and you lost your Ilie Nastase, how did you feel? It was my first

:37:44. > :37:48.year and it was the most exciting tournaments, walking out here for

:37:49. > :37:55.the first time in the quarterfinals. I got hammered but the experience

:37:56. > :37:58.and what I took away was incredible. It can affect you into microwaves.

:37:59. > :38:05.You can take the positives from it and everything you get from the

:38:06. > :38:11.crowd -- in two ways. You can use it to your advantage. Or it can destroy

:38:12. > :38:15.you, really. I do not say that likely because if you walk away

:38:16. > :38:20.saying you were defeated on such a big stage and you do not look at it

:38:21. > :38:27.the right way, it can be harmful to your game and mentality. If you are

:38:28. > :38:35.not careful, it can happen. Did it help you win in 1974? Before you won

:38:36. > :38:41.your first Championships. The experience from being in a position

:38:42. > :38:48.like this is more about the occasion and how you handle that. And to be

:38:49. > :38:51.able to take that into what is to come in the future, you always draw

:38:52. > :38:56.on something that has happened to you in the past and there is no

:38:57. > :39:00.better occasion than Wimbledon or a US Open and if you can draw from

:39:01. > :39:18.that, it makes you better every time. Win or lose.

:39:19. > :39:27.Tim, I wanted to mention when Dimitrov held his serve last, it was

:39:28. > :39:31.a serve and volley. We should give him two points for that. We should

:39:32. > :40:10.make sure it does not go unnoticed. I want to ask you over the course of

:40:11. > :40:12.this match, Tim, how do you feel being a serve and volley expert,

:40:13. > :40:12.this match, Tim, how do you feel being a serve and volley expert how

:40:13. > :40:18.being a serve and volley expert, how would you handle the tennis today Mr

:40:19. > :40:24.Mark would you be able to serve and volley like that? No, is the honest

:40:25. > :40:35.answer. That is a reflection of how the conditions have changed.

:40:36. > :40:40.Murray a bit casual and not getting in Thai enough. Going back to 2002

:40:41. > :40:46.in Thai enough. Going back to 2 02 when the grass changed, it has

:40:47. > :40:52.changed the nature of tennis. -- tight. To look to serve and volley

:40:53. > :41:16.and to get the ball through the court is very difficult to do.

:41:17. > :41:27.He has come in here with an awful lot of belief, Dimitrov.

:41:28. > :41:33.Certainly impressive to see Dimitrov getting Murray on the back foot

:41:34. > :41:58.Setting up the first break opportunity of the match.

:41:59. > :42:10.Good approach. He was quick to see the short ball. He got into

:42:11. > :42:15.position. He did well to get up to it and on break points, he has to

:42:16. > :42:22.worry whether he could hit the passing shot -- he has to Murray.

:42:23. > :42:27.Tim, your first quarter final against Todd Martin, how impressed

:42:28. > :42:33.have you been with Dimitrov? So far, so good, I was not able to

:42:34. > :42:38.break serve that day. But this is another big game. These early games

:42:39. > :42:43.have all been big for Dimitrov to get his first service game under his

:42:44. > :42:45.belt and now he has a break of serve and he needs to reinforce that with

:42:46. > :42:57.a hold here. Murray needs to be careful here he

:42:58. > :43:04.does not want to let Dimitrov start steam-rollering him. He needs to get

:43:05. > :43:23.into this game to show he is not letting it go away too quickly.

:43:24. > :43:32.Win or lose this match, for Dimitrov, the younger and less

:43:33. > :43:37.experienced of the two, it is good to the these young guys play on this

:43:38. > :44:20.occasion with no fear. We certainly saw that yesterday.

:44:21. > :44:27.It is a good looking scoreboard for a good-looking guy. He would have

:44:28. > :44:32.taken that coming into that, visualising what might happen early

:44:33. > 0:37:38on. No doubt about it and for me, there is a physical challenge here.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Murray has to raise his game, he has not started off well. The

0:37:39 > 0:37:38interesting element will be the mental challenge because dealing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with adversity is the hardest bit for Murray and when it is not going

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well, the dialogue starts between him and his rocks. He gets a little

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bit focal. -- his box. It will be interesting to see how he controls

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that and how the dynamic with Amelie Mauresmo will work. He is on his own

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and all the work should be done already. Absolutely, but it begs the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38question does he talk so much to them? Exactly, he is looking for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38some kind of inspiration. We all have looked at that on occasion but

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his work is here on the court and he has to focus. He has to put his mind

0:37:39 > 0:37:38around what his job is. Right now, he has got help battle. -- an uphill

0:37:39 > 0:37:38battle. He has got this day she has got to get back into this set. -- he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has got to get back into this set. I was speaking to Roger Rashid,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov's coach, and he says they have worked on that shot, a slice

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhand. That is getting more through the court, more direct.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is a good shot. It keeps Murray off-balance, he is not expecting a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hard all every time. Throwing something different at him is a good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38deal. -- a hard ball. Andy is a little flat. I think he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38because he has had nothing to get into at this stage of the match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38You can only applaud how good that was from Dimitrov. He is moving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well, he is playing steady enough, but he is also looking for a chance

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to go for something more, something special. The things that have worked

0:37:39 > 0:37:38so perfectly 41 in earlier rounds, he has never lost a toilet on that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhand side -- worked so well for Andy Murray. Not doing the same

0:37:39 > 0:37:38things here against Dimitrov. What a shot. At full stretch from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well behind the baseline. Such power.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Things are slipping away pretty quickly for Andy Murray in this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38opening set. The perfect scenario unfolding for his opponents, Grigor

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov, in his first ever Wimbledon quarterfinal. Andy Murray

0:37:39 > 0:37:38wanted to make Dimitrov on it. - earn it. The Bulgarian just a couple

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of points away from claiming his first set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It might be a little bit too late but it is the first time Murray has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been proactive rather than reactive, Dimitrov has been dictating the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38play. Murray needs to find a way in the second set of getting on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38front foot. Perfect opening set from Grigor

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov, he takes it 6-1. We knew he is a dangerous opponents

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but he is dominating play on Centre Court. If you want to continue

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watching this match, it is on BBC One. On BBC Two, we will be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38following Novak Djokovic and his quarterfinal in a moment but back to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a match show we were enjoying earlier between Eugenie Bouchard

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against Angelique Kerber. Eugenie Bouchard is a set up and it wake of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve up. Our commentators are Tracy Austin and Davis -- and David

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Mercer. -- a break of serve. She should have put the volley away!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Angelique Herbert plays the shot of the match. -- Angelique Kerber. That

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was a deep forehand volley, who would expect she would get to it?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Much more positive body language now from Angelique Kerber. It sends a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38message to your opponent. Body language is so important.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38So willing to move in from that baseline. She loves the mid-court

0:37:39 > 0:37:38area. So many baseline players do not like that.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38This time, it is Kerber who is asking. Is it a challenge? Obviously

0:37:39 > 0:37:38not. She put her racket up. There we go.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Bouchard steadies the ship which was hardly leaking but it found troubled

0:37:39 > 0:37:38waters. This is so new to her. Great execution.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38To me, one think you look for in players is the ability... She did

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have a net of a mistake there, losing her serve. -- it off. Move

0:37:39 > 0:37:38forward in a positive way. That was a very positive response from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kerber. A lovely serve and heading into the space.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kerber wins the point but I would love to see her take some of those

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out of the air. It sends a message to your opponent that they cannot

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just throw the ball that up when it gets to neutral -- back up.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38A really good game from Kerber, forcing this year one -- young woman

0:37:39 > 0:37:38at 20 years of age to serve for the match. What are you saying to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38yourself in these circumstances Tracy? About to serve for a place in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the Wimbledon semifinal. Important you are not thinking about that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38exact sentence. When building champion, 1977, Virginia Wade --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38champion, 1977, Virginia Wade - Wimbledon. It is really important on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a stage like this that you build a small picture. As tennis players, we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have always been told to go point by point. That has to go through their

0:37:39 > 0:37:38head of Eugenie Bouchard, how she wants to play her points. She will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be nervous so she has to move her feet, state calm and take your time.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- stay calm. Do not rush in a situation like this.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Played 15 points at the net and she has won 11 of them.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Only got one first serve in in this game so far. Even the most self

0:37:39 > 0:37:38assured of players can get a little tight in the circumstances.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38At one stage Bouchard had the double break.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Her ground strokes are not huge but the backhand is more steady.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Anyone would think you knew something about this game, Tracy!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Second break point. So brave, fearless. It reminds me of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the four break points she saved at three all in the first set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It is wide and Eugenie Bouchard is through to her third major semifinal

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of the year! Huge congratulations. Angelique

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kerber was not ready to leave Wimbledon but you have sent her

0:37:39 > 0:37:38home. Thank you. I have played her before and it is always tough. I was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38happy I could pull it out in the end. You put in some fearless shots

0:37:39 > 0:37:38at the end. How much were you feeling the nerves? I was really

0:37:39 > 0:37:38trying to stay in the moment. That is what I have been working on for a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38while to stay mentally in the moment. A few bad errors but at the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38same time I hit a few aggressive shots. I just tried to play my game.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Simona Halep is your next challenger, how do you feel about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that? I excited. She is three in the world. I'm just excited to be in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38semis of going and I want to go on further. People are saying that you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Simona are the next generation will stop. It is the revolution.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Simona are the next generation will stop. It is the revolution I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think it is a relic citing time for women's tennis. Well done, thank

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you. -- a really exciting time. SUE BARKER: What composure from role

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to looks destined to go to the top of the game and maybe get her hands

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on the trophy. That win puts therein to the top ten for the first time.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Her opponent tomorrow will be Simona Halep who was equally impressive

0:37:39 > 0:37:38over on Centre Court. She raced away with a victory.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38What a summer she is enjoying. Through to the final of the French

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Open and now through to the last four here at Wimbledon. Let's hear

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from Simona. Many congratulations. Quarterfinal

0:37:39 > 0:37:38at Wimbledon was won in straight sets against a player like Sabine

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Lisicki, was it as easy as it looked? Not really. Thank you very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38much. It was a good match. I had a slower start today. She had 4-1 and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38then I came very well back. It was incredible on Centre Court. It is my

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second time here. I enjoy every moment here. I was happy that I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38could win in two sets because tomorrow I want to be ready to have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a good match again. Your format the moment is excellent. You got to the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38final of the French Open and you are here now in the semifinals of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wimbledon. What is the key to the great run? It is about the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38confidence. I have more confidence in myself. The secret was to enjoy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the match and fight for every point. I am happy on court and I like how I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38move on court and how I hit. I feel everything is good and I really

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enjoy every moment. You are the top ranked player left in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament. Do you feel pressure because everyone is looking to beat

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you? In the French Open, it was the same thing. I was the highest seeded

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the tournament. Now I do not have the pressure, I just want to enjoy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and try my best. I want to give everything I can on court because I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38love tennis and I just want to play. Well done today. Good luck. Thank

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you. She is such a great competitor but

0:37:39 > 0:37:38so is Eugenie Bouchard. In the bottom half of the draw, Lucie

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Safarova up against the former champion Petra Kvitova.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38We will be on the air at 12:30pm on BBC Two for the semifinals. Where

0:37:39 > 0:37:38heading over to Court Number One in a moment. Know that Djokovic is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38walking out with Marin Cilic. He has coach even this -- Goran even is a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pitch in his corner. Phil Jones caught up with Marin Cilic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He had never gone beyond the fourth round despite seven previous

0:37:39 > 0:37:38attempts at Wimbledon. Then came the breakthrough. Do you think you have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been an underachiever hair? Probably. I was definitely hoping in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the course of my career that I would come over here further. When I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38started in 2008, I lost in Claremont that year. I missed a chance but I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38am not thinking about the past, I am thinking about the present and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enjoying being in the last eight here. It will be a fascinating match

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and one that everyone will look forward to. How about for you? For

0:37:39 > 0:37:38me, it will be huge challenge. I am hoping to be completely ready for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that match. You must have a great mindset going in? Guess, in these

0:37:39 > 0:37:38last two matches it gave me a lot of confidence. I thought I should play

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well in order to beat those guys. I delivered, I served great, I played

0:37:39 > 0:37:38brilliantly from the beginning to the end. That is a very big

0:37:39 > 0:37:38confidence boost coming into this next match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And we are going live to that quarterfinal in a moment. Let's drop

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in on Centre Court. This match is over on BBC One. Andy Murray is in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38real trouble. He is fighting hard and holding serve in the second set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38If you want to watch that match it is live on BBC One. But here we are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38heading to Court One. It was all Djokovic in the first set, he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serving for the first set. Peter Fleming is alongside Andrew Cotter.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38There are a few uncharacteristic mistakes for Djokovic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That will do. That has not been much of that from the Croatian so far.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It looked almost as if he slightly mishit it.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic is still serving at a very high rate. 67 for the tournament.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38A bit of a romp so far for Djokovic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And Djokovic takes the first set. He has the upper hand over Cilic. Boris

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is pairing, yes, that is my boy I taught him everything he knows!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Well, OK, I taught him a few things. There you go, a happy chap. Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has not had to be outstanding. He has done just enough to beat what is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in front of him. Marin Cilic has been struggling with his serve. When

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you have served almost 100 aces in the tournament, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it is every player's worst nightmare, you come up against the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38top seed and a guy you have never beaten before. He knows he has got

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to redline his whole game. He has two serve aces and get a high

0:37:39 > 0:37:38percentage of first serves in and slash a few winners of the ground to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38see if he can somehow break Djokovic's serve. Nine times played,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38nine defeats for Marin Cilic. It is very difficult to play. You have got

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to believe you can win, first of all. Exactly. Intellectually, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38believes but deep down in his heart, does he feel it? It does not appear

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that way. Then you find the first serve and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic returns it with aplomb. We showed the forehand errors

0:37:39 > 0:37:38earlier. That is another one. Another break point.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That was much better from Cilic A good first serve. A winning

0:37:39 > 0:37:38forehand. So he has something at the start of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this second set. First blood, Croatia. Yes, that is better. His

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wimbledon record is not as good as his other slams. You'd think with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his game, he has got a decent grass court record at other tournaments.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He knows how to do it on grass. This is as far as he has been at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wimbledon, to the quarterfinals The grass is so much about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38confidence. It has to do with your ability to move on the surface. If

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the grass is slippery that would be difficult for a tall guy.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Precious few of the opportunities playing against someone like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic. From love 30, Djokovic seizes

0:37:39 > 0:37:38control. More forceful hitting from Cilic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is better. That is good player. Put the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pressure on your return and. -- your opponent.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic getting a little animated at the end there. He knows he was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pushed for the first time. We know that Cilic is on good form.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wonderful finishing off from Cilic. He had to do a bit more finishing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38off than he thought. It was a testing defensive shot. Look at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that, full stretch. Very nearly a winner. He defended the net

0:37:39 > 0:37:38beautifully. A little premature, that attempt

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from Djokovic. There was a roar coming from Centre

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Court. We will not tell you what is going on. From Centre Court and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Henman Hill next door to us. A real distraction for these guys on Court

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Number One. He is certainly playing better in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this second set, a Lynch. -- Cilic. This is the case, if you hit an

0:37:39 > 0:37:38approach shot, against a guy who moves well, sometimes it is better

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to approach up the middle. Everything has to be on today for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic. The two-handed backhand doing good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38things for Cilic. three. He has to do that because he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was looking sorry for himself. Yes, the first games of the second set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will always going to be crucial for the Croatian. He dropped serve

0:37:39 > 0:37:38early. You could make a case for Djokovic walking all over him and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38winning a straightforward match But now I would say Cilic is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38competitive. That is a start. A nice day to be watching. They are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watching on a big screen which is behind us on Court One. They are not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watching this match, the watching Andy Murray against Grigor Dimitrov,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and the winner lays the winner of this. It is heating up nicely. --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38plays. For some strange reason, they are watching Andy! Imagine if there

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was an enormous remote control and somebody changed it to this game. Or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watched another programme! We are still on serve but Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is still the aggressor. Having to chase things in this second set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is very rare, his fifth double fault of the championship.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38As it was in the last service game of Djokovic, just a hint of a chance

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for Cilic. Rather sloppy. A heavy sigh from the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38perfectionist. This is an opportunity. It is well

0:37:39 > 0:37:38earned. It certainly appeared as though

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic was in line to make that backhand smash. So a first break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38point of the match for Marin Cilic. There it is, Cilic breaks in this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second set against the run of play so far. He has the right and he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38leads. -- the break. What happened? What happens to Djokovic? --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38happened. He has not looked great at any point in this match, he has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38looked solid. That service game was out of the blue, gift wrapped. But

0:37:39 > 0:37:38again, it have to to back it up with your own service game -- you have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38too. -- you have to back it up. Breaking only half the battle

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against the best return on the game. The umpire steps in. Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38certainly appeared as though he thought it was long. Pressure on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38umpire here. But he is a wise umpire, indeed. They must perspire

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watching the replay when they have stepped in.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic makes good use of the replay point.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38There has not been a stage yet where Cilic has got into a fluid rhythm on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that first serve. Getting better now.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He has had one first serve here and somewhere else, but never two,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38three, four in a row. That was a big one, 150 mph, second

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve. It did not payoff that time. But better. Cilic moves ahead in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second set. We have got a match on our hands!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Unpleasant leading for Cilic. You would not have addicted that based

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on the first set -- predicted. It looked as though there was a bit of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38belief and he began to be more of the aggressor and he hit with more

0:37:39 > 0:37:38authority. Yes, that is the Booty of the scoring system in tennis. -- the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great thing about the scoring system. You can be playing great

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tennis and you can be gifted points or you lose -- or you get some

0:37:39 > 0:37:38winners and you can get right back into the set. You said about the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic serve under Goran Ivanisevic and you said it has to be a more

0:37:39 > 0:37:38important weapon, he has flattened it out, more pace. He has not been

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serving well today but he has been throughout this championship. It

0:37:39 > 0:37:38used to be that he almost hit a second serve for every delivery. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38kicked his first serve all the time. It is just giving your opponent a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38gift. I will play with one hand behind my back! He still has a great

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve so misses his first, you can still use his second.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- if he misses his first. Djokovic has improved his serve and it has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38led to great things. The crowd are not concentrating

0:37:39 > 0:37:38solely on this match, they have half an ear on other events. It is tough.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He is asking the umpire to get the crowd into shape, please. He is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38trying to concentrate out here. We did not see enough of that in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38first set, hitting ground strokes. Now that he is up a break, he can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hit away. Importantly for the number one seed

0:37:39 > 0:37:38who remains just one break behind and never out of touch.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Full attention on this match, please. He heard you! He did not. I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bet he did! With great defensive players like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Grigor Dimitrov and Djokovic, they have great flexibility.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He was not flexible, he used to just throw himself around like a madman!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It is good! Good hitting from both men.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He finally kills off the Djokovic defence. Great point. The sort that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic forces you to play time after time. He covers a lot of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38court. That is another good service game

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from Marin Cilic and he is closing in on this second set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38SUE BARKER: Cilic one game away from levelling this match. The drama is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on Centre Court at the moment, defending champion Andy Murray

0:37:39 > 0:37:38dropped the first set and is in a second set tie-break and he has lost

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the opening point on his serve. He has just got that back so a crucial

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie-break on Centre Court. The defending champion is in trouble,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that is live on BBC One. On BBC Two, we are staying on Court One.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38One hour has gone and the first set disappeared in a flash for Marin

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic but impressive how he has turned this around. The score of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Andy Murray has flashed up, we will not give that away. You might want

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to watch that later. Record it. Here, a very interesting match. You

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have to be impressed the way Cilic has come back into this match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic throwing sarcasm, put the match on the big screen! We can all

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watch it! We are right next to the hill and the noise from the hill is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38considerable when Andy Murray does well. So Djokovic saying, why not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38put it on the big screen and be done with it? He is serving here to stay

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the second set. Let's face it, none of these guys like playing set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- second fiddle to anybody. That one of the reasons why they are such

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great champions. -- that is. It is going to happen again, there

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is going to be a raw from a hill -- from the Hill during this match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Not even sure it is so much the noise from outside but the resulting

0:37:39 > 0:37:38murmur from this crowd. He is feeling get! -- feeling it.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic is enjoying himself. The number one seed is hoping it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38touched the outside of the line. But, no.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He is too big a man to get back quickly. A great effort by Cilic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic is moving him around. That shot was brilliant. The old dropship

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- drop shot play, spectacular. Another ace and Djokovic says, let's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38see what you have got in your own serve. It certainly appeared

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic went a little flat to start the second set. For about five

0:37:39 > 0:37:38minutes, he played a bad service game and he allowed Cilic to hold

0:37:39 > 0:37:38comfortably once or twice. But Djokovic appears to have returned.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He will no doubt want to test Cilic right here. Serving for the set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He desperately wanted to challenge that but he is down to his last

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenge. The umpire confirmed he thought it was long.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38A bit of an error from the Croatian, he thought it was going wide and he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38did not chase it. He has only dropped one set in this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38championship and that was against Radek Stepanek in that epic match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wonder. From Novak Djokovic! -- wonderful stuff from Novak

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic. He is far from giving up this second set yet. He got behind

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it so well. Exquisite balance throughout.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Yes! So now Marin Cilic flirts with the net, but that backhand winner

0:37:39 > 0:37:38brings him to one point two level things at one set each. -- to level

0:37:39 > 0:37:38things. There it is! One search -- one set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to the number one seed Novak Djokovic and Marin Cilic. It is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38interesting. It was just because you have to be there to take

0:37:39 > 0:37:38opportunities but Djokovic dropped at the start of the second set a bit

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Cilic held on well throughout. It was a long wait after breaking

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic. There is a fine line between saying a guy looks flat and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38does not have it or... SUE BARKER: Andy Murray is in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38trouble, he is two sets down. Cilic is back in this match but on Centre

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Court, it is Andy Murray in real trouble. He has dropped the second

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set in the tie-break, it is all Grigor Dimitrov at the moment, he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38playing more attacking tennis and serving well and Andy Murray cannot

0:37:39 > 0:37:38find an answer at the moment. Drum up unfolding on Centre Court on BBC

0:37:39 > 0:37:38One -- drama. We are joining Court Number One again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic is backing up his second serve better in that second set. Djokovic,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38not at all. A big difference from the first set. Cilic is still not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serving at a high percentage, 54% the first set. Cilic is still not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serving at a high percentage, 5 % of serving at a high percentage, 54% of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38first serves in. But because he was successful behind the second serve,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it did not matter. He won more points behind his second serve than

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his first. And against this guy, Djokovic, it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is a real surprise. You would expect him to be the set period player from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the baseline. -- superior player. I asked Goran Ivanisevic about his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38chances against Djokovic today, yesterday, and he said, do not ask

0:37:39 > 0:37:38me that question. Not in a menacing way. He just knew how hard this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38would be for Cilic. He is playing well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38This is really dangerous play. Dangerous to this man.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He is hitting the ball cleanly now. That early break in the second set,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic, has put him in a bit of bother.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That was a great return of serve. Only inches from the baseline.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one. He didn't be disappointed by that. He can't be discouraged I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38should say. That is the right tactic for him.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38A good hold for Djokovic, you can see what it means to him to get

0:37:39 > 0:37:38things up and running in this third set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He is in a far tougher fight than he thought he might be in that first

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set. We talked about he played too muches against Cilic this year, and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38both times Cilic has taken a set from Novak Djokovic, so the story of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38nine matches played between these two and nine victories for Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38not telling the whole story. Cilic has had his opportunities, against

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the Serb previously. time. Drawing the mistake. Treasons

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic set up one of the most straightforward forehands he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38attempts and missed it. So a squeeze being put op being put

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on the Cilic serve once again. I am not sure if Djokovic would have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38got that one back, even had ghesed Cilic was going crosscourt. What a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sharply hit ball that was. ". -- guessed.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic is clambering out of a little hole here very well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38. He is a different beast to that of the first set. Again, he has, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will know he has a chance, as long as Djokovic continues making

0:37:39 > 0:37:38mistake, he was looking in the direction of his coaching box.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Not entirely happy with the way he is playing, but this man is playing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well. So still on serve this this third

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set. Cilic, he has had a good season, he only came back to the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38last year, after that, towards the end of October. The drug ban, you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38want to clear that up, it was, it was just a, he didn't check what was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in a subment he had taken. Think it was glucose tablets, before

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wimbledon last year, and it was the French version of it which included

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a banned stimulant but it was carelessness, rather than intention,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and that is why the ban was reduced from nine months to four, he came

0:37:39 > 0:37:38back and it ran from Wimbledon on, to October, and really since then he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has had a very good season. Working with Goran Ivanisevic, he seems to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have brought something to his game, whether it is something technical or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that confidence of having having a little... Craziness in your corner.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He has such a forceful personality Ivanisevic, an idol. . A willingness

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to take a few risk, when you play against a guy like Djokovic, like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Murray, like Nadal who defend so we, you have to take a few risk, or they

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will grind you down. It is serving Cilic well, thus far today.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Tremendous athleticism from Djokovic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He has that in spades, hasn't he. What... An amazing athlete he is.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Viciously put away by Cilic, but you have do that, because you know this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38man is waiting, stretching, sliding, doing everything to get every shot

0:37:39 > 0:37:38back. Four double faults in this match for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic. And the first real opportunity of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this third set going to the number one seed, two break points.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Anticipated. Has another chance.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Oh! Tried to pluck it from the air and Cilic survives. You would have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to say this is the wrong shot. Just hit it, a nice easy chip backhand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38volley up the line. I think he even saw that Cilic was moving into the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38open court. That was as easy as come. He paid the price. Two break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38points disappear. Monster forehands from Cilic. See

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him through and time for hands on hips for Djokovic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Frenetic hitting almost from the Croatian. Djokovic happy to stand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against the ropes, and carry the -- parry the ball back.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Sorry, my bad! What does that mean? I don't know,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38some Americanism, it is nonsense! That is a very very good hold from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic. Two break point, were seen off. -- points. Djokovic has to hope

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he will blow himself out and drop the level and that is where he will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pounce. Yes. That is one way of looking a it, or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is one way of looking a it or else he is thinking, well, I need to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38answer the bell. I need to up my attacking style, just a little more.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He zoefrnt many double faults in, six in the whole Championship.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He doesn't serve. That is great from Djokovic, Cilic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stepping into the backhand so well. They are getting very animated on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the hill. This is not what should be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38happening. She Sabac hander, Djokovic. It is -- he is a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhander, Djokovic, it is costing him dear.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He has missed more easy back hands in this match than probably his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38previous three or four put together. He needs to snap himself back in to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shape here. To hold for Djokovic, but Cilic I am

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sure encouraged again. A couple of shots for chill which he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38went for, he narrowly missed. He was confident enough to go for them and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38they weren't a million miles away. But again, this man has all the very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38best at just regrouping when things are not going quite according to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38plan, again, tightening things up. Of course, and that is why he has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38won six major title, so many other tournaments in addition to that,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38because you won't play your best tennis every day. But if you can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38scramble round, if you can defend, put the balls back in to awkward

0:37:39 > 0:37:38positions you can scrape your way out of matches where you aren't play

0:37:39 > 0:37:38your best. That is what Djokovic is attempting to do today. No, that is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38probably a stretch, because he hasn't played badly, it really has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been a case of Cilic raising his game, hasn't it. No doubt about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that. Numbers, it is not about reaching semifinals for Djokovic or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38any of the great players but if he does win today he will move level

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with Nadal and Sampras on 23 Grand Slam semifinal appearance, which is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38quite some number, although Federer is looking for his 35th and he plays

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against Wawrinka. He is sneaking through the draw quietly, not so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38many people are talking about him this year. . He has had a, you know,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a pretty straightforward draw, I would say, but he played especially

0:37:39 > 0:37:38yesterday, and in fact he has played well all week. Won, so he is in good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38form, enjoying his form on the grass again, well, he has to be the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38favourite to come through that half. Isn't he? It seems it. Should be.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38According to the seeding now, it should be Djokovic against Federer,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but Djokovic plenty of work to do. Cilic is serving, 2-3.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He won the point but he is not a happy chap, Djokovic at the moment.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The court is dry, it is slippery. Slippery when it is wet, slippery

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when it is dry. There is another number for you to show how well

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic returns against Cilic, Colling into this match. 98 aces in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the tournament and just three in this match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic moves on. He did very well there, third or fourth set from the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38end, watch him slip here, and whoa, he did well just to maintain his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38balance and stay in the rally. Picking and placing serve es well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38/serves well. Once again that backhand goes

0:37:39 > 0:37:38missing. The opportunities are coming the way of Marin Cilic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The number one seed is working haar, but he holds his serve.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38SUE BARKER: One set all in serve, but on Centre Court it is all Grigor

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov. He is two points away from a place in the semifinal. Andy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Murray two sets to love down, serving to stay in the match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is live over BBC One. So the defending champion in real trouble

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on centre. Here on two, though, we are staying with the top seed.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He is breathing hard, no doubt about that, it is very very warm out there

0:37:39 > 0:37:38today. Due to get even warmer but guzzling down the water, and knows

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he is in that dog fight. Again, we stress that first set, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38steam rollered over Cilic and we thought we are in for a quick match

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but Cilic has raised his game tremendously. Perhaps Djokovic not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38inquire firing on all cylinders. That noise is for the the score of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the Andy Murray-Dimitrov match being flashed up. That will go down well

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the Djokovic again. -- down well with. The result may

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well. But any way, he has to get through, there is no guarantee that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic will be Mr To play the winner of that match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- there. Exactly right. Apart from a very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38slow first service game. Like that outfit. I want to see it again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic has played top of the notch tennis.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Natty! Cilic serving 3-4. Not by much. There won't be too many

0:37:39 > 0:37:38roars coming from outside on the hill to distract the players now.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is all I'm saying! In the distance you can hear a loan

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Bulgarian single happy. -- lone Bulgarian singing happily.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38point hard earned a game by the defence of Djokovic. Absolutely, the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pressure thrust firmly Cilic's way. UMPIRE: Chile 2-mac is challenging

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the call. It looked good to me but Cilic is fairly brisk with his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenge. -- Mr Cilic is challenging the call. The call

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stands. Mr Cilic has two challenges remaining. Two break points.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic is doing mighty well at saving bees break points! -- these break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38points! Djokovic has had nine in this match, converted just two of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38them, has won more. -- has another one now. That is the way to see off

0:37:39 > 0:37:38another break point. It is one thing to be more aggressive when you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve, another to come up with those sort of serves when you are break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38points down. -- break points down. He is grinding to a Cilic, and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic will have another opportunity. Break point, which, if

0:37:39 > 0:37:38opportunity. Break point, which if converted, will let himself for the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set. -- it will let him serve for the set. UMPIRE: Mr Djokovic is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenging the call. We will see if it is right. A big point,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38obviously. You shouldn't be so cross. UMPIRE: Deuce. Mr Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has two challenges remaining. Cross cross. UMPIRE: Deuce. Mr Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has two challenges remaining. with himself. Another break points

0:37:39 > 0:37:38disappears. Two from 11 now. The Dimitrov fans are chanting again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38These are crucial moments in this match. Again, another of the very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38impressive things about Cilic is the way that he is lifting himself for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the big points. That was just about his quickest serve of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38championship. And enormous serve. The return of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic, though, posing the question. Again it is the pressure

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that his quickness puts on opponent. Very little margin for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38error, for Cilic. And again! If you give Djokovic all these break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38point opportunities, surely he will convert one of them.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38No, not yet! Again! Boris Becker tries to lift him. Two from 12.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Backhand problems. Look at that! I never would have expected a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38statistic like that. You've got to admire his strength,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Marin Cilic holds. Cilic is starting to feel it. Starting to show a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38little swagger on Court Number One. Goran Ivanisevic would have admired

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that. Loved to see that. He wins the point that he is in a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38frustrated place. -- bet he is in a frustrated place. He is not a happy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bunny right now, is he? That was cute from Djokovic. No power there,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but the angle was wonderful. Any time you force your opponent to hit

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the ball off the floor,. The Cilic forehand doing its work

0:37:39 > 0:37:38again. He was cruising in this game,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic, and now a few thoughts will be creeping in. Of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38unpleasant rioting! -- of the unpleasant variety!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic not able to harness the power to cold -- toehold. -- to hold.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic will be up against it on his own serve once again. Again you can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38look and Blair and matter to your coaching staff, but out there you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have two coach yourself, and the very best players are able to. And

0:37:39 > 0:37:38perhaps improve things. Still plenty of errors, in particular on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhand, from joke of it throughout this match, and as well as his own

0:37:39 > 0:37:38good play, this is why it Marin Cilic is in this match. He doesn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38seem a little unsettled, Djokovic. More and more we see him venting to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his box. Almost like Andy Murray. As the box is going to do something to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38save him, or the box isn't doing enough to help him play better. As

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you say, it is up to the player to figure this out on their own. That

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is one of the great aspects of this game. No coaching is allowed during

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the match. Deal with that! You on your own! And he knows, Djokovic,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this is a title he would dearly love to win a game, just that one victory

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in 2011 where he beat Rafael Nadal in four difficult sets and that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38defeat in the final two Murray last year. He knows that Murray is no

0:37:39 > 0:37:38more, sorry to spoil that for you if you wanted is to keep that secret,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but Rafael Nadal is out, so he his got a great chance. He knows that by

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and large it has been playing well in this championship but he's having

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his struggles here in this match against Cilic, although the Croatian

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is now serving to stay in this third set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38If he flaps any more he's going to take off. I'd like to see at! - I'd

0:37:39 > 0:37:38like to see that! Something for chocolate match --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38something for Djokovic in this Cilic service game. Firing back at him.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Then the Croatian brings the power again! And again, when required a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38very good hold of sofa. -- a very good hold of serve. Two hours on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Court and nothing between these two. A lot of top-spin on this forehand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bringing the short angle back down into court.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic is mighty impressive again. And Djokovic slipped twice in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38rally. There is one, gets right, And Djokovic slipped twice in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38rally. There is one, gets right and then couldn't get back into court

0:37:39 > 0:37:38again. For a guy who relies on his quickness and ability to change

0:37:39 > 0:37:38directions, that's got to be frustrating.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Oh, my. A rare beast of a double fault, and another rare creature,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38break point the Cilic! He has only had one in the match so far, he took

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that opportunity. Pressured times the Djokovic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The latest! Marin Cilic has the break! He will serve for the third

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set, and the number one seed, Novak Djokovic, is in real trouble! What a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shock there! Taking chances, taking break points comedies had three

0:37:39 > 0:37:38opportunities, use taken two of them, and Djokovic, two from 12. A

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bit of good fortune, the return of serve landed on the baseline, making

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it difficult for Djokovic to time return properly. -- to time that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38return properly. But, on such good fortune are matches one. It's up to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him to stand firm now. Djokovic, if he is to come back, will then have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to do it in five. But we have seen a number of mistakes from Djokovic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38today and seen how unsettled he looks, all encouraging signs for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic. At some point, you believe that a great champion like never

0:37:39 > 0:37:38joke about will realise and say, that a great champion like never

0:37:39 > 0:37:38joke about will realise and say I'm getting frustrated with all these

0:37:39 > 0:37:38errors that maybe the frustration is causing the errors. Maybe it is time

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just to settle down, and get back to basics. How will Cilic respond to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the pressure? Serving for a lead of two sets 21. -- two sets to one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Touch them at! Now! Cilic. A shake of the head. What a mistake. --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38touched the net! How was that possible? Watch. My bad again. Court

0:37:39 > 0:37:38awareness. You know that the net is right there. Hit it to the side,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38anything. Could that be crucial Certainly responded well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Hearts racing on the court and in the box. Think about that first

0:37:39 > 0:37:38point a game. It is well behind him now. -- again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is this challenge now to put it out of his mind! You would have do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think though, that Djokovic, having gone ahead 0- 15 would have said,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38I've got him. I'm going to grind him in it. It is two break points for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic. It is long! Djokovic has it this time! When he needed it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38most. Cilic could not take his chance. UMPIRE: Third set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie-break. Both players receive one extra challenge. They were eyeball

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to eyeball and Cilic blinked. He's got a second chance, though.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Scrabbling like a madman, trying to get there, Djokovic, he's spent a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lot of time in this match on the ground. He is OK. He's trying to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38keep his composure but really struggling to do so.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Doing well to put that game where he served for the sat behind him,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic. -- where he served for the set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And the ebbing and flowing of the tie-break, Djokovic suddenly looks

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the stronger. -- in the ebbing and flowing of the tie-break.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It is wide, and Djokovic's footing is very, very uncertain. It is like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he's playing on ice. Just can't get a firm footing, seemingly, ever. So

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a firm footing, seemingly, ever So it switches back, the momentum, to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic. SUE BARKER: as we watch this replay

0:37:39 > 0:37:38we are leaving this match on BBC Two, so quickly turn over to BBC1.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It continues there if you want to see the end of this tie-break with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the number one seed in real trouble. Is he down and out? We will find

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out. That much continues on BBC . out. That much continues on BBC1.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Here on BBC Two we go to Centre Court for Roger Federer against

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Stanislas Wawrinka. A short time ago we saw Andy Murray going out to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Grigor Dimitrov, who played the match of his life to go through to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his first Grand Slam semifinal, winning it in straight sets. Andy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Murray's defence of his title is over. Weekend you Andy's reaction to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this match. - we can share his reaction. A lot of people are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38surprised at the result today, what is your immediate reaction? And

0:37:39 > 0:37:38disappointed, especially disappointed with the way I started

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the match. -- and is abided. I played a poor first set and I felt

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that gave him confidence at the beginning, he played better at the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38start, and in the second set and got tight at the end and could have gone

0:37:39 > 0:37:38either way. Then again when he got that set it is easier to settle down

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when you are leading by two sets, if I had managed to come back with him

0:37:39 > 0:37:38being a break-up in that set and got it maybe I could have found a way

0:37:39 > 0:37:38back in, but it wasn't a great day. Being a professional, you will not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38make excuses but immediately after the match he said he thought you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38were not yourself in the warm up. Was there anything to that?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38honest. But I got off to a bad start, so that was the disappointing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38part of the match for me. You know, I found a way to get myself back at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the send of the second set, but the start was not good enough, you need

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to start better. Obviously, when you are playing best of five set matches

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there is time to come back in to it and I had my opportunity in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second set, at the end, and didn't get it. And of course you were up

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against a high class opponent, somebody you know well, what did you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have to say about him after the match? What do you think about his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38performance? I just came off the court, so it is hard to analyse

0:37:39 > 0:37:38everything that happened out there, but he played a very solid match, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38made very few mistake, he served well and made a lot of returns.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Yes, all the percentages were in his favour, today, and he played a very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38good match, yeah, I just wish I had played a little bit better and made

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it tougher for him at times. I have been in that situation before, I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38know what it was like when he was trying to get deep into slams for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the first time, and you know, mentally it is not easy, and I wish

0:37:39 > 0:37:38I could have pushed him a bit more. As the defending champion, people

0:37:39 > 0:37:38talk about how much things change when you come back adds the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38defending champion. Has 245 been an experience you feel you will learn

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from for the future? It for me, it wasn't so much about learning, it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was about trying to enjoy the experience, you know you never know

0:37:39 > 0:37:38if you are going to get an opportunity to do that again, and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you know, to be fair, I did a decent job and in the first week I started

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the tournament very well, and played some good stuff, today just wasn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38my day unfortunately. Thank you for your time. Cheers.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38SUE BARKER: No excused from Murray, who today -- excuse, who was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38outplayed by an extremely talented player, and has been a star of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38future, he certainly came of age on Centre Court today. So, Murray is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out. Dimitrov is through, and do we have another big upset on our hands?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Because on Court Number One Cilic has taken the third set from Novak

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic, that is the way he did it, seven points to four. Goran

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Ivanisevic delighted. So, the number one seed needs to take this to Fife

0:37:39 > 0:37:38if he is going to take his title hopes alive. That match is live on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38BBC One. Here on two we are heading to Centre Court, to see the seven

0:37:39 > 0:37:38time champion Roger Federer, he is walking out here for his 35th Grand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Slam, looking for his 35th Grand Slam quarter-final match, and he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up against Stan Wawrinka. Seeded five, but ranked three in the world.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The Centre Court stunned after the Murray match but a warm welcome for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the great man Roger Federer and for Stanislas Wawrinka.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38So we are ready for this all Swiss bat 8, for this late -- battle, this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is one for the neutrals. We have won the Olympic Gold

0:37:39 > 0:37:38together. We have practised a lot together. With Stan, so we go not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38way, way back, because I came on tour almost, I would say seven years

0:37:39 > 0:37:38earlier on tour than he did, but you know, I was sort of his older

0:37:39 > 0:37:38brother when he came on tour, and it was nice seeing him rise in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38rankings. A really close friend happy to be playing the same time as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him, you know, he is the best player ever, and it was so nice to be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there, so many years with him on the tour, sharing a lot of things

0:37:39 > 0:37:38together, playing Davis Cup this year, together, winning the Olympics

0:37:39 > 0:37:38together. It is not so easy I must say, playing against someone you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38know so well, and a friend, even though Stan has been struggling

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against me in the past, more to cope with all of that, I think now, since

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his big result. Think he is having an easier time to focus, you know.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Playing so much matches against him, it is a big challenge to play

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against him, but it is always interesting for me, if I want to be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a better player. Big moment for sort of tennis in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Switzerland and sports in general in Switzerland, being in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38quarter-finals together at Wimbledon, with one of us moving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38forward is already a great result for both of us.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It is never easy for me, it was always difficult to play him,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38especially here, you know, when his feet is playing well, it is like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38playing Rafa at the French Open, feet is playing well, it is like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38playing Rafa at the French Open it is the biggest challenge playing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Roger at Wimbledon in the quarters. They are good friends but rivals

0:37:39 > 0:37:38today. It is the first time that two Swiss players have met in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38quarter-finals. Federer leads in the head-to-head, it is their first on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38grass. Federer, a great point there, and Stanislas Wawrinka has broken.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It is all happening here on quarter-finals day here. We have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lost Murray, Djokovic in trouble and now Federer is down a break on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38centre. Let us join our commentators on this one. John McEnroe is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38alongside Simon Reed. SIMON REED: it has been a terrific

0:37:39 > 0:37:38start from Wawrinka. He is hitting the ball beautifully so far. The

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhand is scary good. You can see that serve popped in at

0:37:39 > 0:37:381.30. -- 130. At the moment, he is over

0:37:39 > 0:37:38powering Federer. Salute carnage Ance in the Wimbledon

0:37:39 > 0:37:38area. When it happened in the women, you think it is never going to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38happen with the America but it is. Djokovic has to win both the fourth

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and fifth sets to stay in. Federer the down and early break. Nadal out.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Murray out. Buckingham Palace would be ploughed.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38What time is that, ten or 11 every morn or is it is every hour? I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38haven't been for a while. I think it is a given time every morning.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Something going on in the locker room or something. Yes. It is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38unbelievable. I wondered about pecking order,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38normally against friends there is a pecking order and there is no doubt

0:37:39 > 0:37:38who has been top in that pecking order, I wonder if that has changed

0:37:39 > 0:37:38now? It hasn't changed yet. Stan Wawrinka was the type of guy,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38personality and player that almost, to me, I don't know him that well,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but I have seen him many times round the courts, in the locker room, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38almost preferred to be in the shadows of Federer. Couldn't handle

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what a guy like Roger Federer, the top players deal with. He was making

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a great living, somewhere between 10 and 20 in the world, and you started

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to wonder, did he have what it took to take it up to that next level?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Again, I got to credit Magnus Norman who has done one of the great

0:37:39 > 0:37:38coaching jobs. Soederling, getting sick, and getting that Steen Barr or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38whatever never came back. He won the tournament which I am going to visit

0:37:39 > 0:37:38next week, never played again, allowed Wawrinka to hire this guy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and he has made himself believe in himself more. He culminated this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with winning Australia. Which was amazing. Did anyone see that coming?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Then he had trouble handling it. They are saying you are the number

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one Swiss guy. You thought thought he would go in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the shadows again. They put Roger ahead, deservedly so in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38seedings. Now, Stan, for the first time since Australia he looks like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he thinks she the man now. Talk about not letting someone

0:37:39 > 0:37:38extend their arms. Lucky he didn't sprain his wrist!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38So normal order restored but damage done, considerable damage.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38We thought that breaks would be few and far between, Stan Wawrinka went

0:37:39 > 0:37:38through this yesterday, playing Lopez. Lopez had gone through it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38playing Isner. Nadal lost his serve once yesterday, and he went down in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38four sets. I did that match, Lopez against

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Isner. It had its merit but it was tough to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38find. Stan Wawrinka is a better volleyer,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he is comfortable, when he gets there. He tends to try to go big on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38those shots. I like the way he handles himself.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He should not be afraid to move forward.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Didn't so that but he came forward a lot against Lopez. Lopez another guy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38who was willing to just chip back the return and it makes sense to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38come in off that. Oh, silky smooth from Federer.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It took a little longer than I thought, but that slice to the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38forehand, and a little bit short, is a smart move to try.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka actually handled it pretty well but it opened up the court for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer. He will have to be careful. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doesn't often miss that, that's for sure. Sat for for him, he could have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38gone to either side. Needs a first serve.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Up ball was called in. Never a big fan, Federer of this Hawk-Eye

0:37:39 > 0:37:38system, he has just about come to terms with it. Worth a challenge.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Is Absolutely bludgeons the ball, Wawrinka. Pretty regularly gets into

0:37:39 > 0:37:38130s. Stan's fastest serve of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament so far at 136. A bit sloppy this game. This is --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38listen to the crowd responding to this chance for Federer.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Well played! That is a really good defence by Wawrinka. Federer putting

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the pressure on, moves well back there behind the court, Wawrinka.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is a strong way to get it back to deuce.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Hasn't dropped a point behind his first serviette.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It has been underrated to me how fit Federer is and how hard he works on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and off the court to maintain elegant, beautiful style of moving,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that ballet-like Baryshnikov move like. He has battled it hard. He has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a so his back back in order. I saw him earlier in the year, Djokovic,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer, final in palm spring, that was I think this guy, he is moving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better than Djokovic. His mum, with his wife. No signs of the of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38children. Sometimes the girls appear, just for about 10, 15

0:37:39 > 0:37:38minutes to watch dad play and then they are shuffled off. He plays OK.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38They don't seem to miss a lot. When you lose that little bit, there is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that first step spring, if you get a guy like Wawrinka hitting the ball

0:37:39 > 0:37:38as hard and accurately as he is, it is tough to deal with. Whether you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38are 32 or 22. That is where it is so far the edge goes to Stan Wawrinka.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Royalty watching royalty. 6 Why are their chairs so far apart,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38do you know? They haven't been fighting, have they? ! I don't think

0:37:39 > 0:37:38they moved. They are just there like that. So

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer, serving to stay in the first set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38They showed a score board that Djokovic has broken early in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fourth. Trying to level that match at two sets all. Early, 2-0.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He won't feel as threateneded to have to make that quick move.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Says he feels uneasy when it comes in serves and volleys because the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38texture, he, it is virgin ground, not many people are doing that. The

0:37:39 > 0:37:38service line used to be what the baseline is, all beat up.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The dirt would be there. Now, nowhere to be found. That is where

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he is going to have problems. Stan does unload at times on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second serve. He should.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38I am sure Magnus Norman has been begging him to do this. "Go for it!"

0:37:39 > 0:37:38There it is again. Apparently still alive and well. Both these guys

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov earlier. Still hope for some old school tennis.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Game Federer. Federer is going to Kieng his racket it seems.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- change his racket it seems. He changes his racket, or in this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38case one game after the new balls. Maybe he forget, formally it is one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38game before. I am not sure it matters a lot. He could pick up a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stick! I didn't do that at all. Lendl was the first guy that started

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doing that on a regular basis, back in the '80s, made millionaires out

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of the racket Stringers. That is a lovely switch.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He is moving forward with more and more confidence If Roger is going to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38slice that backhand he better hit it deeper. That forehand was too short

0:37:39 > 0:37:38as well. And we have already pointed out, I think people are seeing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka's solid at net. There is one close to 80% of his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38points when he has moved forward in the tournament.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38See the frustration, but it must be there, building now, for Roger, who

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is just, has not got off to a good start. Hasn't dropped a set in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament. Oh superb play. He played that shot

0:37:39 > 0:37:38incredibly well. You see it doesn't get up too high so Federer can't do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38as much with it as he wants. Three set points.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Game and first set Wawrinka. Simply outstanding first set. And

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that is the first set that Federer has lost in the tournament, it is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the first set he has lost against Wawrinka in Grand Slam, their three

0:37:39 > 0:37:38meetings before in Grand Slams all went to Federer in straight sets.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The similarities of what we saw in the previous match. Both Murray and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer basically cruise into the quarters. Weren't tested, and the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38level, the quality level Ju went up, notched a couple of notches, and we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38were wondering way, would we see them able to sort of lift themselves

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up arm would that affect their performance, it did with Murray and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sowith Roger, he doesn't seem comfortable yet with the pace, the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38power of Wawrinka, even though they have played a lot, practised a lot.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Even though they are great friends, his previous opponents the last ten

0:37:39 > 0:37:38days ago and his practise matches he hasn't seen this at all, and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka has been through the mills a bit, some tougher competition or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tighter matches. Look that the first serve, points won 100. People have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38adjusted to that over the cows of the last couple of years. It drove

0:37:39 > 0:37:38players like Andy Roddick crazy, the last couple of years. It drove

0:37:39 > 0:37:38players like Andy Roddick crazy not players like Andy Roddick crazy, not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38knowing how to handle that chip. knowing how to handle that chip

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Athletically, Federer at his peak, he could move better. Now the guys

0:37:39 > 0:37:38are slighty quicker or stronger he are slighty quicker or stronger, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doesn't seem like the chip is enough. He has to be more

0:37:39 > 0:37:38aggressive. Suddenly the feel is that Federer

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has become the underdog. We shall see. The first set took just 32

0:37:39 > 0:37:38minutes. Seemed to fly by. That ball right there, Wawrinka miss

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hit, he wanted to rip I across court, get a better angle than he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38ended up getting. That I think is what you will see

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer do more of. Serve and volley. Old school. When he beat

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Sampras, many moons ago, he received and volleyed virtually every point.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is when he first won the title back in 03. Since then he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38becoming more and more, not a baseliner but someone who came

0:37:39 > 0:37:38forward less an less. If you win seven times you know what you are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doing. Do you think the addition of Stefan

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Edberg has focussed more on serve and volley? Well, certainly Stefan

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Edberg won six Grand Slams because he was one of the greatest player u

0:37:39 > 0:37:38about moving forward. His ability to get from the baseline to the service

0:37:39 > 0:37:38line and closer was unparalleled. You, he would hit a return, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thought you could relax a bit, if you were on the baseline, you would

0:37:39 > 0:37:38look up and here was this guy hovering on top of the net.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38So he just wants to make Roger aware of possibility, options that he has,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just a good guy to bounce some ideas round. Both are laid back, similar

0:37:39 > 0:37:38type of personalities. Seems like a good fit.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Interestingly enough Wawrinka Wawrinka -- Stanislas Wawrinka knows

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that Roger likes to chip his backhand return, so he is doing some

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve and volleying of his own. Smart idea.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The battle of the backhands is going this fellow's way. That is what

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka wants. -- fellow's way. That is what

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka wants, to get this very exchange.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Up game Wawrinka. -- UMPIRE: Game Wawrinka. Amazing skill. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doesn't look all that happy about it. But you can't can do it any

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better than that, that's for sure. That is a tremendous return there.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Forced to go for it. Federer hit exactly the serve he wanted to hit.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka was somehow able to hit a winner.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one. He's not used to going for it that much on the return. That has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been worked on regularly by Norman, to get him to feel more comfortable.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Could move in from Federer. And he nips in front again. -- good move in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from Federer. You can see his box looking urgently on at Roger

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer. He got away with a so-so approach there, but one of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38important keys to his success will be his willingness to move forward

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and force Wawrinka to come up with some big passing shots. Perhaps

0:37:39 > 0:37:38something that Stefan Edberg would like to do, it's not like he's the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38first coach who has suggested to Roger that he do it, but come in off

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his second serve when possible. It is fascinating because up until now

0:37:39 > 0:37:38everyone has been cooling in Federer's performances, but it is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38about to you play as well and this is a different kettle of fish. Yet

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the Mac we saw that a couple of hours ago. Amazing how well Murray

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was playing, but suddenly the competition got a lot better today,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and he just wasn't able to lift his game and he wasn't going to beat

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov any more, and the same goes for Roger Federer. If he is off,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Stan Wilson is that, relax, and be able to play his game better. So far

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he has done that. There is a man who will have a joke about it! Loves his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tennis, does Michael McIntyre. I saw Rod Laver in the box, my idol. I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38don't know if he is there now, maybe taking a break. Always good to see

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him. Ken Rosewall is staying at my hotel, as fit as ever. The

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australians have got something to talk about now! For a man up by one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38said you wouldn't know it, with Wawrinka commie he's got to keep

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that concentration, that intensity high. Looks like it has slipped away

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that little bit from him. Again, missing first serve after first

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve. He's getting about one out of three, it's terrible! 86%! Amazingly

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enough, he is at. -- he is up. He can't keep doing this.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Was he right to take it on? It's easy to be the back-seat driver but

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that is a tough shot to pull off, over the high part of the net,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38swinging as hard as he did, it seems you could have waited a couple of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shots more for another opportunity but you don't have a lot of time to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think about it. Unsure when he came in, but now,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38trouble looming. Well played by Stan Wawrinka to move forward. Just low

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enough, but Wawrinka might have been better off waiting for it to bounce

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and taking a bigger swing at it. better off waiting for it to bounce

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and taking a bigger swing at it He made it more difficult than it had

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to be. Roger took advantage, there. He keeps missing these sirs. --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38these serves. A big point here. That backhand has been so big for him,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38got him out of trouble, very dependable.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Opportunity missed. Big-time! The forehand is more streaky with his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bigger frame, he seems to be mis-hitting and more often. Backhand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38more solid. The volley is better, maybe pump up the serve a little.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38A terrific second shot. Perfect depth. Even with these serves not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38working perfectly he is getting the job done. The other parts of his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38game have been superior to those of Federer, if he can get that serve

0:37:39 > 0:37:38going he will be very difficult to beat. He looks like he can pump some

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serious iron, as well. Wawrinka changing his racket.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Mr Wawrinka is challenging the call. The call -- the balls was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38called in. -- the ball was called in.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Mr Wawrinka has two challenges remaining. It has been

0:37:39 > 0:37:38minute and ten seconds. -- it has been about a minute and ten seconds.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer it is! So, no breaks in the second set. I guess the key shot has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been the Wawrinka backhand so far, no prizes for guessing where he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pushing it. Clearly it is a save a shot, because you are hitting over

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the lower part of the net, Roger is more dangerous there. You are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38talking about one of the greatest ever forehands. Yes, the bigger

0:37:39 > 0:37:38racket helps the backhand but still that would be the exchange that,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38racket helps the backhand but still that would be the exchange that to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38me, Wawrinka would be more than happy to get involved in. And a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38number of them quite deep down the court. He's hitting the ball so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38cleanly. He is overpowering Federer. He sees that Federer is not able to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38react. There was a high percentage shots for him. That sums up his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38career, try again and again, fail better. It was a bit like that until

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Melbourne, this year, and suddenly he wasn't failing at all. I never

0:37:39 > 0:37:38expected to see this man left a Grand Slam trophy. All credit to him

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for believing in himself. It took a couple of you. I was in Adelaide in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38November, when he just switched rackets and went to this Yonex. Do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you want to do that when you outnumbered ten in the world? For a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38while his confidence was waning but it sure looks like he made the right

0:37:39 > 0:37:38move now. -- when you are numbered ten in the world. See if he can get

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his serve going. It is they live a weapon. Nimely for the top players,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it is hit the big serve and then open the forehand. If I were

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka I don't think I would be running around a lot of backhands.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Amazingly enough, he does it, sometimes. The best return of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match. No question about it. Roger knows that he can't just keep

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shipping his backhand. That bigger sweet spot helped, official. --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38chipping his backhand. That bigger sweet spot helped, for sure. A bit

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lazy for Federer, just taking a big step out to the forehand, just

0:37:39 > 0:37:38reached for it, doesn't want to get in the habit of doing that.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38O! Simply wondrous. I think people are starting to see that it wasn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38an understatement! When I said that he is back and he is awesome. Living

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up to the billing at the moment. he is back and he is awesome. Living

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up to the billing at the moment It has been the shot for himself. -

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up to the billing at the moment It has been the shot for himself. -- it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has been the shot for him, so far. The crowd was clapping when the ball

0:37:39 > 0:37:38boy caught the ball but it put Federer out of his rhythm just that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38little bit. The first double fault of the match. It might be a better

0:37:39 > 0:37:38idea to take some of those backhands up the line.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Fantastic, guys! Three dream shots. We've got to see that again!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer, first of all, you didn't Federer, first of all, you didn t

0:37:39 > 0:37:38know what he was going to do commie he could have done any of three

0:37:39 > 0:37:38things with his forehand. He hates the drop shot come he does not think

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Stan will get to it, he gets an excellent shot, and Roger is able to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38scoop this about. Chand catch the line. The good news for him is that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his level of play has got better. This may sound like sacrilege and he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38still moves mighty well but is he a step slower? Even a quarter of a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38step at this level could make the difference between winning and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38losing. At times, that spring... He still moves great and most players

0:37:39 > 0:37:38would be more than happy with that, but his level, his anticipation,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38maybe that tiny bit off. The guys are hitting it harder because they

0:37:39 > 0:37:38know, if they go for it, hit their spots, that virtually no one can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38track it down. This reaction time, I would say, is a little bit less. But

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better than in the last couple of years. I wonder how he has pulled

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out of! -- I wonder how he has pulled that off! New balls for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka. He has got it! It didn't sound

0:37:39 > 0:37:38right. But it went to his mark. It sure worked. You can see why

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Switzerland, now that Federer is committed more full-time, has a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great chance of winning the Davis Cup.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The number three and number four players in the world, battling for a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38spot in the semifinals. Milos Raonic, Nick Kyrgios have yet to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38start, because Djokovic and Cilic are into the fifth set. E-mails

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that! -- he nailed that. I was expecting to see more moving in off

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the return, the old chip and charge, Stefan Edberg would be more than

0:37:39 > 0:37:38happy to see that, that was his bread and butter. Djokovic up by one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38break early in the fifth set. Again, it is the backhand that is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38deciding it. Great defence from Federer. He made him earn it. There

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is a reason why Roger has been to five French Open finals because he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38knows how to play defence, just to hang in on that point as long as he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38did was special. So with that. The backhand is on fire for Wawrinka, so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38far. Again, the body serve catching him

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out. Beautiful serving. Classy game from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a class act. He leads, 5-4. SUE BARKER: That keeps Federer in front

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the set, Wawrinka will serve to stay in it. Just to let you know

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that Djokovic is on Court One against Marin Cilic, they are into

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the fifth and final set and Djokovic has a break of serve, leading 3-1

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the fifth and final set and Djokovic has a break of serve, leading 3 1 in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that final set. That much is live on BBC1. On BBC Two, we are staying

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with this one. Come and lead a Mac Wawrinka will have deserved to stay

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the set. -- COMMENTATOR: Wawrinka will need to serve, to stay in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set. If he makes the final the guard will change again because he will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38beat this was 11 and back into the top three in the world. I wonder if

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it feels like the Swiss number one right now, and Wawrinka feels like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this was in bit too? I will answer that, yes. Roger is always going to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be the Swiss number one. To me! I don't think Stan would mind that.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He's been helped by the success of Federer. It has forced him and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38inspired him to get better. The bar is so high, you don't have any

0:37:39 > 0:37:38choice. Stan Wawrinka has done an excellent job, seemingly, the fall

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of his career, late in his career, autumn, I should say, that he's able

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to play better than he's ever played in these last 12 18 months. I don't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38like to be a broken record but the best thing that could have happened

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to him was that illness, of the former world and five Robin

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Soderling and the opportunity to work with Magnus Norman, who has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38done a tremendous job, the former number two player in the world.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Injuries to the hip ended his career prematurely. What a working he was.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38French Open finalist, and he has instilled some of his work ethic and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38belief that this work will pay off. It has, for Wawrinka. Ins so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38quickly. He moves better than you realise. He looks stocky. You know

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he's got the power but he moves forward exceptionally well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Crushed that one. 127 mph! We understand that Wawrinka has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38requested the doctor to come and see him at the end of this set. Not sure

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what this is about. He says he feels generally unwell. He isn't looking

0:37:39 > 0:37:38unwell. He doesn't look like he's unwell. He doesn't look like he s

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enjoying being there as much as you would think. When you look at the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38scoreboard and see that he has won the first set. He hasn't missed many

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhands, until this game. Listen to the applause. The crowd

0:37:39 > 0:37:38feel they could be a movement of the pendulum right here. -- there could

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be a movement of the pendulum. Both these guys played yesterday.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38This is the third day in a row that Stan Wawrinka has played. That may

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have something to do with how he is feeling. It's tough to do that in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the best-of-5 set matches. Missed a bit of a chance, there, Federer

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer was given that extra day off because of the rain delays, the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38delay, for Wawrinka among others so he has had to play back-to-back

0:37:39 > 0:37:38days. Mighty blows. It seems unfair to Federer that he wasn't allowed to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38play on Monday and that may be affecting his performance so far.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Normally so lucky with that kind of thing. Normally when you are good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you also get lucky. Amazing how that works. He's probably not feeling too

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lucky at the moment. Just missed. Stan Wawrinka was put

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in an and position. He did not miss this by much bed right there he knew

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that Federer was in trouble -- he was put in an odd position. You can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38see that ball was a couple of inches wide.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Mr Wawrinka is challenging the call. It is the far end from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38where we are, difficult to see bit he obviously saw something. A lot of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Joerg flew, he thinks it was dust. It was chalk. That was a pretty easy

0:37:39 > 0:37:38ball. Wawrinka, if he is feeling unwell,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38why doesn't he get the doctor out rather than at the end of the set?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is a great yes question. You would think he wouldn't want a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doctor to come out. To think if he lost this set he would be thinking

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the very question you are asking me now, why didn't I call the guy soon

0:37:39 > 0:37:38e to get something that might make me feel better before I dump the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sect set? So either he is not feeling that bad, or he is feeling

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better than he felt when he asked for the trainer, or he is figuring

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he is up, doesn't want to disrupt thing, or all of the above. Yes.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thing, or all of the above. Yes He is going to chance it. All in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38all, things are going his way so far. Expression never change, you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38get the feeling he is someone who never relishes being in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38limelight and he has thrust himself in the limelight. He will have to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doll deal with it now. I think he should learn to enjoy it, because it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38can be fleeting, shortlived, and he has worked too hard not to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38appreciate what Haye he has done. He is playing the best tennis of his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38life. He is well liked. He is serving for the second time,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to stay in this set. We got some shots of Wawrinka almost

0:37:39 > 0:37:38retching into his towel. We are not going to show you that, it is not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great viewing I remember Andy Murray played Fabio Fognini and Fognini was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doing that all the time and he was playing the best tennis of his life

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic was doing that at the French against Nadal. It was stress,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38physical exertion. All this year, trying to peak at the right the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38moment moment. Heat not an issue, it was at Paris at the end.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38This guys have to be careful about what they eat, when they eat.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38When they are predicting when they will play. That is tough. At least

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with the roof you have a better idea. It looks like as we saw a few

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hours ago with Murray, his second set will be crucial. Huge.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It will be a tie-break tore decide it. Just like it was with Murray

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov. UMPIRE: Both players have received

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one additional challenge. Wawrinka has played three tie-breakers and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38won them all. A beautiful shot. Federer read it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38right. Just, couldn't deal with it. Career record for Wawrinka coming

0:37:39 > 0:37:38into this match. 21 and 19. So Federer with the mini-break in this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie breaker, having dropped the first set, Wawrinka is simply in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38inspired form. Wawrinka sup in front of us and he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doesn't look great, but the President-elects very rarely

0:37:39 > 0:37:38changes. He has been given a gift there He is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38not happy at all with that, that really would have put the pressure

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Wawrinka -- on Wawrinka. SUE BARKER: So back on serve, 3 3

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this tie-break, we are leaving this match on BBC Two, if you want to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38continue watching switch over now, over to BBC One, and we will stay

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with this match through this tie-break and beyond. So switch over

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to BBC One for Federer-Wawrinka. We will round out the big stories of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the day. It is that the defending champion Andy Murray is out. He was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38outplayed by Grigor Dimitrov, the 11th seed from Bulgaria. 6-1, 7-6,

0:37:39 > 0:37:386-2. A wonderful performance from Grigor Dimitrov. We have been

0:37:39 > 0:37:38talking about him as a future champion. He proved that. The match

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of his life. He is through to his first ever Grand Slam semifinal.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38So great for Grigor Dimitrov. Not so good for Andy Murray. Let us hear

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what he had to say to the press after the match. No the toughest

0:37:39 > 0:37:38loss was losing in the final in 2012, here. But I need to go away

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and make a lot of improvements in my game. I have lost a couple of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38matches in the last, the last few Islams, where I have lost in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38straight set, and played, you know, played poorly, so I need to, I need

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to have a think about things, what are the things I need to improve,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and get myself in better shape, and work even harder, because everyone

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is starting to get better, the younger guys are obviously now

0:37:39 > 0:37:38becoming more many churks and improving all the -- mature, and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38improving all the time. I need to make improif.s to my game. How will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it work with Amelie, would you like to continue on working with her? We

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will sit down and chat ability that. Maybe tomorrow, or in a few days. --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38chat about that. But, yeah, it has to come from both

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sides. I have really enjoyed the last couple of weeks, I have found

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it good fun, I found is calming, last couple of weeks, I have found

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it good fun, I found is calming and tactically, you know, I feel like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the chance has been good and the direction I would like my tennis to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38go in, I hope so, but we will need to sit down an chat. Very honest in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his press conference there, no excuses given by Andy Murray, he was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38outplayed by a very talented player today, and interesting to hear what

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he may be doing with Mauresmo mug, she has only come on -- Amelie

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Mauresmo, she has only come onboard this summer, will they continue? We

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will find out later on. He says he will have to make change, no doubt

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he will have a break now, but hopefully he will be back to his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38best form for the US Open. He will be on the front and back packages of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the papers tomorrow, I am sure. Let us find out further reaction from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the press room. Let us go to Gary. We are on the player's lawn. Neil,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what was your verdict on purr? After the first four matches which had

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been so good, listless, leaden footed, very disappointing, just no

0:37:39 > 0:37:38life, no fire at all. You can't take away from Dimitrov, he played a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38superb match, but I expected more from Andy today. Simon? He said he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38couldn't get his feet in the right place, he said he hadn't felt

0:37:39 > 0:37:38particularly nervous, but I do dispute that, I mean, you remember

0:37:39 > 0:37:38here last year, he went two sets down against Verdasco many, I think

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov was a different class of player and took advantage of that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tension. So what will the back page headlines look like? They will be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38coated in black, I would have thought. It, everyone had got

0:37:39 > 0:37:38themselves into such a state of optimism, Gary, it is going to be a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38very difficult one for us to put into words. We got enthousandsed as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well. We -- enthused. We believed that Andy could win this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38championship, so a lot of thought will have to go into what we say,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but as I say, I do think we need to give Dimitrov full credit for his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38performance, he is a kid in his first Grand Slam semifinal playing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well. Andy Murray has had so many brilliant run, we can't expect him

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to win every match here. We can t. to win every match here. We can't.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Even will feel disappointed it wasn't a contest in the end, because

0:37:39 > 0:37:38if you look at his stat, 37 unforced error, I feel it was a bit of a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38funeral atmosphere after, and if there had been a real exciting tense

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thriller of a match, people would think he has delivered everything we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38were looking for but it was disappointing on the day. Dimitrov

0:37:39 > 0:37:38beat Murray, he took the champions' title, he would like to get it at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the weekend. Do you think he will? No, I don't. It is beginning to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sense to me more and more like Roger Federer's year. It was amazing when

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you think about it. The one Grand Slam I have thought that he could

0:37:39 > 0:37:38win, if he could win any one of them again is Wimbledon, and he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38looking in sensational form at the moment. I would say now Federer.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38moment. I would say now Federer Thank you.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer has taken that set against Wawrinka, so one set all. So,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer is one set all on Centre Court, but Dimitrov is through and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38we now know that he will face this man, Novak Djokovic, the top seed,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he is still the bookies's favourite and he came from two sets to one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38down, against Cilic. He really was a Man of Steel out

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there. He is so good physically and mentally, and tough to beat. Cilic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has the big serve, he has the game on grass but he is such a great

0:37:39 > 0:37:38competitor and what, an impress there from Djokovic, who is Serbian,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against Cilic who is Chilean and coached by Goran Ivanisevic. You can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38never count Djokovic out in a match. Boris Becker will be pleased with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that. He is through to his 23rd Grand Slam semifinal, that is how

0:37:39 > 0:37:38consistent he has been throughout the years. He wants to win titles

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and he has only one one out of the last six and he really has come here

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on a mission, to claim the title. So Djokovic is through, let us hear

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what he had to say after the match to Lee. Novak, congratulations, we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have seen the Djokovic who won the first set was back to boss the last

0:37:39 > 0:37:38two: It was a tough five setter I knew coming into this match that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Marin is going to playing a sieve, and I had a couple of chancing to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38break him in the second, I didn t use that, played, excuse me, played

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a very bad game, with a couple of unforced errors from the baseline,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38my serve was going to drop the serve in the second. The momentum shifted

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to his side. The third was even. A few chance, but pretty even match in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the first few sets and in the last two I felt like I regained the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38control, I started swinging through the ball, and having more, you know,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stability on my ground strokes, and you know, using the serve very well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Getting returns back, which was important because he had a very big

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve s and he was using that as an advantage. We saw you getting

0:37:39 > 0:37:38frustrated, is that because how you were play organise the fact he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38raised hid #2k3w5i78 so much? He raised game, I allowed him to come

0:37:39 > 0:37:38back to the match. I played very well in the second. A couple of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38games in the second it was close, I had a few opportunities, didn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38capitalise, you know, allowed him to step in. In the rallies and he used

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his opportunity, I was frustrated because I allowed him, you know, to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38come back to the match, and, you know, get into the control over the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38rally, so that was a bit frustrating, but again, managed to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38find the right pace, when I need it. In the third set you were throwing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38your body into everything. You spent a few times on the ground. You asked

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for new shoe, was that for new grip or a new lease of life? A bit of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38everything. Maybe it is the shoes for but since I changed them I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38played really well. Midway through the, through the fourth and all the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fifth set, with new shoes, it felt good. Will these be the lucky shoes

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when you take on Grigor Dimitrov? I will see if it works. You take on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Grigor Dimitrov, he has just put out the reigning champion Andy Murray,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it will be another big battle Yes, I have seen that, the first three sets

0:37:39 > 0:37:38we played, I mean we played the points and we could hear, we could

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hear the crowd. I mean, it was, I don't know how come, because when

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you are playing on Centre Court you can't hear the Court One, somehow

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you can get into the match, on the Centre Court. Is that distracting?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It was to be honest, for both of us, but look, again, you know, I no

0:37:39 > 0:37:38excuse, we, we had to focus when we had to focus, and it was a big win

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for Grigor Dimitrov. He is on fire this six months, winning couple of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournaments on different surfaces, he has won Queen's, he hasn't lost a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38grass match this year he is the player to beat. Thank you.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38SUE BARKER: That will be the semifinal on Friday, but tomorrow it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is ladies semifinals day, and two of the quarter-finals decided here

0:37:39 > 0:37:38today, and first Eugenie Bouchard of Canada, talk about Dimitrov being

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the rising star, one of the rising stars in the men's game, she is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38certainly the star of the future as #235r far as the women are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38concerned. She went through against Nick Kyrgios. Bouchard won 6-3, 6-4.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- Maria Sharapova She could win the main title this year.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38For tomorrow, she will be facing Simona Halep the number three seed

0:37:39 > 0:37:38who was 4-1 no the opening set against Sabine Lisicki, and then won

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the next 11 game, she has been getting better and better with every

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match, Simona Halep, and she knows how to Winton big stage, he reached

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the final of the French Open, she is through to her first Wimbledon

0:37:39 > 0:37:38semifinal. She is the top seed left in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38draw. Sost semifinals are tomorrow -- so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the semifinals are tomorrow. In the bottom half of the draw Lucie

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Safarova up against a player who is the favourite for the title, the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38former champion here, the big left handed serve, Petra Kvitova, so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38those are the two semifinals that will be played tomorrow.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38But still the matches come thick and fast here on men's quarter-finals

0:37:39 > 0:37:38day, he is a cool dude, and he is making his way out. Looks like he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38heading out to practise. This is a Wimbledon quarter-final. Nick

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios the new star, he is 19 years of age, being watched by one of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38last Aussie greats Lleyton Hewitt, who is taking an interest in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Aussie star, maybe he will be a Davis Cup captain of the future.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Aussie star, maybe he will be a Davis Cup captain of the future He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is up against Milos Raonic of Canada, he is 23. He is on his way

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up, but Raonic against Kyrgios, that is the match on Court Number One.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And that is pretty nice, isn't it. Tim Henman is with eme. Kyrgios

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against Raonic, not what we would have predicted at start but a nice

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match to look forward to. We have now got used to expecting the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38unexpected, because it has been so difficult to predict, and it is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great to see Kyrgios walking out on to the court. He looks like he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38going for a practise, a warm up. He going for a practise, a warm up He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is so relaxed. It is that type of attitude that serves him well when

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he went up against Nadal. He had belief he could pull off an upset. I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think one of the toughest channels for him is that he is coming back

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the next day, is he going to be fatigued, mentally and physically?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He played so well against Nadal, can he replicate that against Raonic,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38because Raonic is playing well. He played well in Paris he is serving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38incredibly well. He has only lost his serve once in the whole

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament, so I think the early part of the match will be, it will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be important for Kyrgios to establish himself. These guys will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be a big factor, the fanatics who go round every court. They just started

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watching Lleyton Hewitt many years ago, now they have their own tour

0:37:39 > 0:37:38company and a membership of 80, 00. company and a membership of 80,000.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That cheer all sports. It is all sorts of sports and I think that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will help, if there are any nerves with Kyrgios, it doesn't like there

0:37:39 > 0:37:38are too many, but it will help him settle down that. -of-. They played

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against each other at the French which Raonic won, they will niche

0:37:39 > 0:37:38other's games well. As with the Andy Murray and Dimitrov it is who will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38play best on the day. But absolutely no fear with this guy, is there, I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38mean he walked out on Centre Court, first time out. Playing Rafael

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Nadal, the last time a player ranked outside the top 100 was back in

0:37:39 > 0:37:381992, he is 144. It was unheard of what he did. The manner in which he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38beat him was incredible That is an example of ignorance is bliss. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38didn't go out with too many thoughts, but I think also, a real

0:37:39 > 0:37:38inner belief, you look at his game, Nottingham was the challenger that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he won and then was given a wild card into this tournament. He has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been on a roll. When you look at the attributes of his game, if you are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serving 37 aces against Nadal and you serve that big, you will be a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38threat against anyone. Then when they got into baseline rallies, it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38amazed me how aggressive and hard he was hitting the ball, that at tiles

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he was bullying Nadal which doesn't happen too often. He was able to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38maintain incredible consistency and even when he lost his serve at the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38end of the second set to go one set all, you felt that was going to be a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38turning point. Rafa was serving first in the third set, had his nose

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in front but his belief never Wayned and that third set tie-break to win

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to go two sets to one he kept getting better and better. He is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38leading the stats and playing a big server today, but he is the one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38leading the stats of aces with 113. leading the stats of aces with 13.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Let us find out a bit more about Mr Kyrgios, he has been talking to Lee.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38What a watch up we have in prospect. It features two players from the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38opposite end of the experienced spectrum. That is sensational. Look

0:37:39 > 0:37:38at the response from Kyrgios. A blistering forehand winner.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38An upset here on Centre Court. The world number one has been eliminated

0:37:39 > 0:37:38as the hands of an Australian teenage wild card. Nick Kyrgios

0:37:39 > 0:37:38continues to burst from his chrysalis and gate-crash the tennis

0:37:39 > 0:37:38world. I don't think it hit me yet. The

0:37:39 > 0:37:38feeling is still happening. I don't think I have noticed what I have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38achieved and it was so much fun out there, I was so, so much pressure as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well. I was feeling it but it was an unbelievable opportunity to showcase

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what I have to the world against such a great player, it was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38something I am never going to forget 6789 He jumps for joy having broken

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the serve of Rafael Nadal. When you combine the belief with the weapons

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he brings to the court, I am not hugely surprised, but given the way

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he closed that match out, his first match on Centre Court against one of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38greatest players of all time, I am full of admiration for him. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38played with a lot of confidence and a lot more experience than a

0:37:39 > 0:37:3819-year-old. His fierms on the Centre Court. He played so well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Centre Court. He played so well Didn't let down, you know, he just

0:37:39 > 0:37:38proved that he was so seasoned in the way he was playing, you think he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38must have more experson than what he is claiming!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Oh. Youthful exuberance bounds from Nick Kyrgios. That was very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38spontaneous, I have never hit a shot like that. But he gave me the best

0:37:39 > 0:37:38opportunity. Went straight down the middle. I gave the crowd a little

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bit after that. You seem to have a very different style and swagger to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a lot of the other guys on the tour, you are very true to yourself it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38seem, how would you describe Nick Kyrgios? You know, I would say fun,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38funny, exciting to watch, interactive, I like to get the crowd

0:37:39 > 0:37:38involved, but something different off the court I am a bit laid badge,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38chilled. I like to keep it quiet off the court. I am a lot different on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38court. What do you think he has up against his sleeve against Raonic?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38If he can get down the court and execute it as a similar level to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38yesterday, albeit it will be a different match, he will give

0:37:39 > 0:37:38himself every chance. I have to play against Raonic. I played him at the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38French Open. He beat me there. I will do everything that will give me

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the best chance to win the match. Not just a story here you can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38imagine the Aussie paper, they have him as the rock star of tennis,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38astonishing, remarkable, story, insert your own inteltiff, they have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38gone crazy for him. Milos Raonic, we have been talking about him much

0:37:39 > 0:37:38like Dimitrov, as he is one that is potential future champion. It will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be an interesting match up That is right. You wouldn't have thought

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there would be too many break point opportunities going round, so when

0:37:39 > 0:37:38someone does get a chance, it is a challenge to see if they can get a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38break of serve. Wouldn't be surprised to see, two, three, four

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie-break, who knows? But there is two element, it is fantastic I think

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to have hoot Aussie, you know, potential superstar, they have had

0:37:39 > 0:37:38so many great, we have been waiting for the next one since Lleyton

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Hewitt. Now they have three or four They have more player, there is ones

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to watch out for. Raonic is one of the most improved players, he has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38had this fantastic serve for a long time but he played a defensive game.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38You would have thought when you serve that well you want to be going

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out and swinging away and being more aggressivelet that is where his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38coach has helped him. It will be interesting to see if he can have an

0:37:39 > 0:37:38impact out here today. -- aggressive. Let us join John Lloyd

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Andrew Castle for this one. ANDREW CASTLE: Going to see a lot of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38big serving. We know that. Opening up with 116mph, he has a lot more in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the tank. His serve is the biggest in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match, without doubt. Karlovic maybe dispute that.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He has lost serve only one in these Championships. 30 all is a minor

0:37:39 > 0:37:38triumph. It is a half chance. 146mph.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios will be happy about this game, even if he loses. At least he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is getting his racket on some of these serves.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in service games that he had won, in service points one, and number two

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in aces, he served 108 aces coming into this much comic is a hard man

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to find a rhythm against so getting to 30-30 is not bad! The Kyrgios

0:37:39 > 0:37:38camp. Some changes ahead, we understand. Starting the way that he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38did against Nadal. His body is bound to be feeling that contest last

0:37:39 > 0:37:38night. If an object in the middle, the former world and three. --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Ljubcic in the middle, the former world and the three. He is coaching

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Raonic. There are some things that you cannot teach and a feel for the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38ball is one of them, Kyrgios has it. Perfect start. Dad, on the left He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38must be so proud. He is a Greek-Australian and Nick Kyrgios's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38mother is a Malaysian -Australian. The boy from Canberra has done good!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Therein lies the problem, getting your racket to the ball, then had to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38do anything with it. At least he made him play, but the next shot was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just too powerful. It was actually Kyrgios who had served more aces

0:37:39 > 0:37:38coming into this, over the first four matches than his more

0:37:39 > 0:37:38celebrated partner. Opponent, here. But they are two deliveries. How do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you coach against these two service motions? They arm and listened. This

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is the most exaggerated grip since Goran Ivanisevic. At the start of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the motion it looks like he's about to flip a pancake. And then he gets

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it back. And his forefinger is spread wide on his grip, and as he's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38about to hit the ball he moves his forefinger back. You can see it is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up high, and as he brings the racket bag it joins the other fingers. We

0:37:39 > 0:37:38should call that the trigger finger. Look at the way his racket face is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that way. The important thing is that he gets it into this position.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It doesn't matter how you get it into that position. This is how he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38gets that wrist motion. It's fascinating. And where the power

0:37:39 > 0:37:38comes from, on the serve, as well as the wrist, it's the leg power. Milos

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Raonic. Look at him, Tyrone this or is Raonic! -- Tyrannosaurus Raonic!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That might be the longest round we go all day in this match! 14 shots.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The coach on the left used to work with Ljubcic and now works with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Raonic. It's a fantastic coaching setup that Raonic has. 30 years as a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38coach. Bad mistake from Kyrgios in terms of judgement! Perfectly legal,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what Raonic did, when tried at him. This is the one. It was bad start --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shot selection. Raonic was right at him. And that was bad shot selection

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there also from Raonic, that one, in the rally, should have gone back

0:37:39 > 0:37:38cross-court over the lowest part of the net, he was in a good position

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there. He didn't need to do that. He's got his sister and his dad in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the box and his coach, a lot of commentators wonder if that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38relationship will carry on after this tournament. That's tough.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Hasn't had a bad tournament. What is he supposed to do! If I don't win

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it, you're fired! And you would expect a player who has had the sort

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of trip to this point that Nick Kyrgios has had to have a let down,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a bad match. He's started pretty well here. I expected him to have a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38let down after he lost the second set to Nadal but it didn't happen,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you got better! He kept that very low, Kyrgios, excellent sliced

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhand. Late call, he is called it out. -- he has called it out. Outlaw

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in? Are we doing the hokey guilty? I'm not sure what he has decided! --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38are we doing the hokey Cokie. Out. It was a sloppy forehand from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Raonic. Time and time again we have seen that if he gets in trouble, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38takes and longer between the service, goes for the line, and gets

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it, most times. Page one of the Raonic playbook.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Smack the serve, look for the short ball, pummel it away. He has a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fitness coach with him and spends an hour and a half with him in the gym

0:37:39 > 0:37:38each day, he has a physio, Ljubcic says he doesn't want him to be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38passive on the court. No mistakes. I think we're beginning to see the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38finished article. In this young man. Obviously he will take time to grow

0:37:39 > 0:37:38into his six frame and understand his game. Interesting when his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38forefinger is spread out like that and when he throws the ball up and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38gets into his serve, it comes together. He starts off there, and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when the motion comes, he gets into following it. We lost and then! It

0:37:39 > 0:37:38comes together. You see it in golf sometimes. Remember when Sergio

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Garcia was gripping and gripping again and again. Here it is, you can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38see the finger again. Swings like a pendulum. You've got good eyes! I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think that Raonic gets the award for the calmest demeanour on court.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Whether he is winning or losing he rarely changes facial expression at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38all. He doesn't sweat! Looks like a mixture of Clark Kent and somebody

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from Mad Man! -- Mad Men. How casual was that? Kyrgios is complaining

0:37:39 > 0:37:38about somebody sneezing but we've got hay fever kind of today in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38London. Dust got a hay fever kind of day today. He would like that one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38back again, Raonic, normally when you play these big servers and you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38get a 32nd serve right into the hitting zone you have to make it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38somehow. That was a bad error, that one. Now is recovery, though,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38excellent return there. Dad, sister, coach, strength coach,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and facets, all on his side. -- and fanatics. Just got to forget about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38reacting now, when things don't go his way. Not everything will go your

0:37:39 > 0:37:38way the whole time, after yesterday and the emotion, just keep it calm.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Moral frustration as he looks to the supporters's box and shakes his head

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a bit. It is almost as if they had a plan to serve two Raonic's forehand.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It is as if he's looking at the box, saying, I did what you said, kind of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thing. It was a sort of negative look, as if to say, not my fault. We

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will see how much Kyrgios has left in the tank, emotionally, five sets,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38going from place in the Wimbledon semifinal, a nation back home in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australia watching him. They are going to get annoying, but

0:37:39 > 0:37:38they are going to help Kyrgios. Talking about Ljubcic earlier, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was saying, I don't want you being passive, I want you coming in. Make

0:37:39 > 0:37:38something happen, don't wait for mistakes. I think that was what was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38being applauded there. A nicely constructed point that the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Canadian, excellent backhand. Early pressure. Coming from Raonic. You

0:37:39 > 0:37:38see, this is a real contest. Over seven minutes for this service game

0:37:39 > 0:37:38alone. Simon Rea, wearing red. The coach, for the moment. A bit of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fire, there! Good test. Fantastic game. He was pushed big-time. What

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was impressive, immediately then, he did a big serve, big forehand, to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38win the next point. It's the sign of a very good player when they can do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that. And not let things worry you for bunches of points. If you can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38get it out of your system after one point and then get back to business,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it is what the top players do, they don't dwell on mistakes.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The underused body is served by Raonic, we don't see it often but it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was very effective, if you keep serving aces in the corners, why

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bother with that serve? No worries! Served 114 aces throughout the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament, Raonic. Seven of them on second service, why not, at 40-0,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament, Raonic. Seven of them on second service, why not, at 40- , or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second service, why not, at 40-0, or even 30-0. Sensational. This year,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he's breaking higher. Lleyton Hewitt is an interested spectator in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38members's area, you can see the members badge that he's wearing. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38got in the easy way, he won the tournament! LAUGHTER

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He's quite an asset. He is still the Australian number one. There are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38eight Australian players in the top 200 and are decent days ahead for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australian tennis. I'm not surprised that they are excited. Another

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australian did very well at Queen's Club and they've got Matthew Ebden

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Bernard tonic in the top 100, and Bernard tonic in the top 10 ,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Kyrgios, then six in Australia at the moment, but if he wins here,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you'll be the Australian number one. -- they've got Bernard tonic. SUE

0:37:39 > 0:37:38BARKER:. I am sorry to say we have to leave this much on BBC Two, we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38are going to Centre Court. To continue watching this men's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38quarterfinal you can watch it on the red button. This much continues on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the red button. We'll keep you updated on BBC Two. But we are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38heading to Centre Court, Roger Federer has just won the third set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against Wawrinka to go up two sets to one. Become joint Arab

0:37:39 > 0:37:38commentators on Centre Court. John McEnroe is with Simon world. -- we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38can join our commentators on Centre Court. JOHN MCENROE: Not a lot of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38spring in the legs right now. He's on the plank. You can see that he's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just about gone. If federal can get this at the break, just hanging on.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Please don't push me overboard! SIMON REED: I can feel the plank

0:37:39 > 0:37:38wobbling and maybe he can to. -- maybe he can as well.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Got it all wrong, and two break points for Federer. It is tempting

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to say the game is up, it looks like that. It certainly does, he has lost

0:37:39 > 0:37:38sting on his serve and Roger was the first to pick up on that. But

0:37:39 > 0:37:38special return. He doesn't have the spring in his legs. You can see the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38belief is not there that he feels he has been chipped, that the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38scheduling was not fair. All those things have been blasted into his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38head and he can't overcome it, and Roger is playing very, very well. Is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it tempting, if you are Wawrinka, maybe stress brings it on, to think,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38why did I let that happen? This is his bad luck as well. It is not his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fault that he had to play three days in a row. That will add to the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stress level. It is not anyone's fault, in a way, that this happened.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38If they are going to make a decision not to play on Sunday, there is no

0:37:39 > 0:37:38choice. That's the luck of the draw. This is where you have to dig as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38deep, maybe, as you ever had. He has found that clear, in Australia, he's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38found something that never happened before. It doesn't seem to feel as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38if it can happen here. He's not moving the way he was.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It looks to me like whatever he was given has made him feel worse, not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better! That would have been a tough catch

0:37:39 > 0:37:38by the ball boy. He loves playing games with those kids. Don't you be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38my now -- stay alert! -- don't you know me by now! You can have eyes in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the back of your head sometimes The unforced errors, I'm afraid,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38climbing fast full Wawrinka. -- for Wawrinka.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He got really lucky there, Wawrinka! That could have gone anywhere. It

0:37:39 > 0:37:38looked as if you did not have the energy to put anything on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38overhead, just pushed it back into the court. Roger missed a forehand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38by an angel so. -- by an inch, also. -- or so. Three games in a row now

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for Federer. All those serves, that one was 108

0:37:39 > 0:37:38mph, they are around 108 mph, 1 9 mph, they are around 108 mph, 109

0:37:39 > 0:37:38mph, remember they were 130 mph quite regularly.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38attempt, there. Federer, as you would expect, showing no mercy.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Definitely over if he loses this game. Probably over anyway. Roger

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just looking for some insurance at just looking for some insurance, at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this stage. Wonderful shot, but can he back it up? A lot of Wawrinka's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38winners were early on in the match. Well played. Just hanging on and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hoping lightning will strike. Any chance of rain? That would give him

0:37:39 > 0:37:38time to regroup! Vicious side spin. But Federer read

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it perfectly. They have seen it so much before, they don't even stand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up now! Another amazing shot from Federer.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38If he is looking for an opponent to choke, he has the wrong guy, really.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is certainly true, a lot of things turning in fed feed way, at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this stage -- Roger Federer's way, at this stage. There is two big

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hitter, he will play the winner of. Presumably he gets through. Raonic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The lefty with the big spin. Murray as gone too. Murray is out of it. So

0:37:39 > 0:37:38instead of having to play two of the guys, he only has to play one of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38them at the most. There won't be a lot of rallies in the next match. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will be able to do what he does well, which is a block a lot of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38returns. That would be the best game, certainly against Raonic.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38First things first. Work to do here.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Wawrinka changing the call. He beat Djokovic in the quarters

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this year in Australia. He fouled that up against Berdych,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and then winning the tournament against Rafael Nadal, so he has got

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to get that feeling. He dug deeper than he ever had, now he has to do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38something here. Sure doesn't look likely.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Once again it is 30-0 so he doesn't make much of an effort on that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second serve return, you would think he would go for it at this stage,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38why block it back? He is running out of time.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer age able to cope with that. A step nearer.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Pretty brisk pace, two hours 13 minutes. Six minutes past six here

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in The way Wawrinka is feeling it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38probably feels like six hours! Absolutely meant to hit that drop

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shot return as he approached. Talk about a curve ball!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38No! That is almost an incident when Federer misses a shot like that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38There was a look of shock in his eyes.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38No challenge from Wawrinka, because he hasn't got the energy to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenge. A really slow walk from Wawrinka to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the chair. Earlier about a set-and-a-half in Wawrinka called

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the train e but at the end of the set. You ask what would have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38happened if he had lost the set. happened if he had lost the set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Would that get to his head and bother him? He hasn't been the same

0:37:39 > 0:37:38player since, he is trying to battle, find a way, to dig in, kid

0:37:39 > 0:37:38himself maybe, because he is feeling not right. That much is obvious.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38not right. That much is obvious How can I get it to work. I can

0:37:39 > 0:37:38figure out a way the beat this guy again. He is just barely hanging on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38by a thread. And more difficult to kid yourself,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when you are playing Roger Federer. N you are playing Roger Federer. For

0:37:39 > 0:37:38me this is the best chance for Roger to win another Slam. He has lost --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he has lost serve once, the entire tournament.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Two service holds away I from the semis again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It was a mishit, neither player moved. A couple of apologies from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka. Earlier on he might have been able

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to make something of that, but not now That is such a good decision by

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Roger, he saw how far back at the court Wawrinka was, a beautiful

0:37:39 > 0:37:38touch again. Very unlikely, as you said, at this stage, he could come

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up with a winner. He pushed it long. Wawrinka has not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been in the service game for a while.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38As he mopes over to the deuce court. Looking a little more energised

0:37:39 > 0:37:38though. It was there for the taking. Oh boy.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38I can't believe he missed that. That could have made it a whole lot more

0:37:39 > 0:37:38interesting. Wawrinka seems to be moving with a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38little bit more urgency. Give him credit. He could have been, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38almost lost his serve for the second time, and he, he is trying

0:37:39 > 0:37:38desperately to find his way back in here.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Just good enough from Federer. Was that his last opportunity?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38So Wawrinka serving to stay in the match.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Thunder bolts. It was like a pinball machine.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It was happening so fast. That's in. Just made it. We haven't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38seen much of that recently, where Wawrinka has taken to the net,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38served and volleyed. A bit more spring in those legs

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Stan Wawrinka has only lost his serve twice. It seems like more,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but... Once in the third and fourth set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Comforting for Federer to know. . That was 96.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Even when you were champion, world number one, was serving for the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match much more onerous than anything else? You got the heart

0:37:39 > 0:37:38rate jumps up, from what you hope to be somewhere below 100, to about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38150-180. Still, a good crowd on Henman Hill. Trying to get over the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Murray loss. See the great Roger Federer play, see Court One. Raonic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has dropped the first set to Kyrgios, the young man from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australia, doing it again, winning the first set and the tie-break One

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the first set and the tie-break. One last gasp here for Stan the man

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka. Trance Wawrinka looking all round him. What has he got left?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He has become more dangerous off the ground again, see why he won that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38first set. Almost the second. That net loves Federer almost as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38much as the crowd here! It is bad luck for Wawrinka. That little bark

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from Federer, geeing himself up for one last effort.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Not over quite yet. There is another one. He could taste, that is his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bred and butter. He misses that wide. There he is. -- bread and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38butter. You can see how much it took out of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka, that last rally. But he played with a lot of skill. Looks a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38little wobbly on his feet. I don't believe that! ! Stan found a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38reserve we didn't know he would be able to come up with, to give

0:37:39 > 0:37:38himself a chance to get back on serve here. Break point.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38No. Thought he was going to make it. So did he.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Advantage Federer. Well he is coming out with some

0:37:39 > 0:37:38heroic shots. There is a case where he went for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it, seems like he should do that pretty much all the time. That was a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great return. Stave off match point again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38One more move forward does the trick.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Too good! . It hasn't done him a whole load of good. But isn't he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38showing some wonderful pluck here. Respect from what we are seeing from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka. That is some big time shot making. Almost fell over there,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wawrinka, when he won that point. That was a little disappointing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38after all he has achieved in this game. Fourth chance.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The crowd don't know what to think. Most want Federer to win this but

0:37:39 > 0:37:38they love the drama that is going on right now.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38124mph. And here is match point number five.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Game set and match Federer. Three sets to one. 3-6, 7 6, 6- ,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Three sets to one. 3-6, 7 6, 6-4, 6-4. Good to see that. A terrific

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match, and Federer is through to his ninth Wimbledon semifinal.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38But Wawrinka sure made him work for it.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Everyone is standing. These two deserve it. Wawrinka has a lot of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fans, more so today with this effort. Roger Federer has never

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lost, he mentions nine time, never has he lost in a semi. Seven wins

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and one fine. How good does it feel for him, having lost here second

0:37:39 > 0:37:38round last year? Commiserations for Wawrinka, he put up a terrific

0:37:39 > 0:37:38fight. He wasn't anywhere near 00% fight. He wasn't anywhere near 100%

0:37:39 > 0:37:38after the first set. I tell you, fight. He wasn't anywhere near 100%

0:37:39 > 0:37:38after the first set. I tell you he after the first set. I tell you, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38played well though, he had a real chance to take a two sets to love

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lead. This guy had to step up his game. Use his guile, experience His

0:37:39 > 0:37:38game. Use his guile, experience. His vary tiff of shot to find a way --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38cellarrity of shot to find way -- cellarrity of shot to find way -

0:37:39 > 0:37:38variety of shot to find a way in. It felt like it was always going to be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his. See that in that will give you a stomach ache, even if you are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer. Play a game like that to win it. Even then he doesn't appear

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to be stressed. Scarcely seen Stefan Edberg more

0:37:39 > 0:37:38animated than he was there, he knew that was a tough call, especially

0:37:39 > 0:37:38after the first set. Absolutely crazy. Stood up. Almost

0:37:39 > 0:37:38smiled. So, Federer is through the semifinal. Two hours and 33 minutes

0:37:39 > 0:37:38it took and he is court side with Phil Jones.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Roger, the Centre Court was deflated seeing Andy go out. You have cheered

0:37:39 > 0:37:38them up. You must feel the love when they cheer you on the, you are like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38an adopted Brit. That is very kind. It is nice playing on Centre Court,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38or here in England for that matter, I enjoy myself, I have amazing crowd

0:37:39 > 0:37:38support. I have been coming here since 98 so it has been a long time.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38We got the chance to niche other a bit in this time, but it a shock

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when a defending champion goes out and puts more pressure on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38favourites really. Talking about knowing you well, getting to know

0:37:39 > 0:37:38each other, Stan is somebody you know well, how tricky is that to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38negotiate psychologically when you have a good friend on the other side

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of the net. That is tough. He played great, spendly for the two set,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38after that he struggled. Maybe it was his fitness, maybe early on he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was his fitness, maybe early on, he was hitting the ball too well, too

0:37:39 > 0:37:38cleanly. I had to wait over two-and-a-half sets to get Miss

0:37:39 > 0:37:38First break against him. It is difficult when you know someone so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well you can see with the ace count, it is just hard to get by, because

0:37:39 > 0:37:38we know our patterns really well, and I am very pleased with the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match, I think we both played at a high level and I wish Stan clearly

0:37:39 > 0:37:38all the best forfor the rest of a season because he has had a beauty.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Semifinal record is incredible, this is your ninth. In a previous eight

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you have won them all, you have won seven titles and the one you didn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38win was that epic against Nadal. seven titles and the one you didn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38win was that epic against Nadal So the omens are great. Yes, no doubt,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but then again, I don't want to go too far ahead of myself. I am

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pleased that I am back strong this year, at Wimbledon; last year was a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38disappointment really, because it is one of the highlights of the season,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for myself it is to play well at Wimbledon and try to win it. Last

0:37:39 > 0:37:38year I didn't even come close, so I was very deflated leaving Wimbledon

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on that note. It is good to be pack back in the semis and have a chance

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to go a step or two further. The prospect is exciting.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Congratulations on that performance today and thanks for the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38entertainment as always. No problem. Than rock you. SUE BARKER: We

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enjoyed it, never count this manner and, he's through to his 35th Grand

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Slam semifinal -- never count this play out. Aged 32 he's still a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38contender. A warm embrace from friends and team-mates. It is Roger

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer who advances to the delight of the Centre Court crowd. So Roger

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer is through and will be going to court and want to see who he will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38meet, either Milos Raonic or Nick Kyrgios, that's coming up in a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38moment. First the main stories of the day. The defending champion,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Andy Murray, is out, he suffered a straight sets defeat to Dimitrov as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the failed to reach the Wimbledon semifinals for the first time since

0:37:39 > 0:37:382008. A very disappointing end for Andy Murray but what a superb

0:37:39 > 0:37:38performance from Dimitrov. He's been tipped to the top for some many

0:37:39 > 0:37:38years, and now he has the chance to show it. He's into his first ever

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Grand Slam semifinal. Let's hear from the two players in their press

0:37:39 > 0:37:38conference. First from Andy. He was asked if this was his most painful

0:37:39 > 0:37:38defeat ever. I came out to win, I was really positive, I was ready, I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38had a lot of patience, however many sets I was supposed to play, I was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38just composed and I was looking for every point that I had to play. Were

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you surprised? Why would I be surprised? It is a great feeling.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38I'm proud of what I did. You noticed Andy did not look quite right in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38warm up. Could you expand on that, what you noticed and what you took

0:37:39 > 0:37:38from that? I think it was just a feeling. I've practised quite a few

0:37:39 > 0:37:38times with him, and I know how he's striking the ball when he's at his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38best, and how he's playing when he's not at his best. It's just a feeling

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that I had. No, the toughest loss of my career was losing in the final

0:37:39 > 0:37:38here in 2012. I need to go away and make a lot of improvements to my

0:37:39 > 0:37:38game. I've lost a couple of matches in the last few Grand Slams, where I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have lost in straight sets, and played poorly. I need to have a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think about things, the things I need to improve, and get myself in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better shape and work even harder, because everyone is starting to get

0:37:39 > 0:37:38better, the younger guys are now becoming more mature and improving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38all the time. I need to make some improvements to my game. How will it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38work now with Amelie Mauresmo? Would you like to carry on working with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38her? We will sit down and chat about that. Maybe tomorrow or in a few

0:37:39 > 0:37:38days. It has to come from both sides. I've really enjoyed the last

0:37:39 > 0:37:38couple of weeks. I have found it good fun, calming, tactically, I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38feel like the chaps have been good, and also the direction I would like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38my tennis to go in. -- the chaps have been good. We will need to sit

0:37:39 > 0:37:38down and chat. SUE BARKER: Aplenty for Andy to ponder in the next few

0:37:39 > 0:37:38weeks, whether he will continue with Amelie Mauresmo as his coach. Very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38different emotions from both coaches today, Emily's man has gone out --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Amelie Mauresmo's man has gone out, but Dimitrov can certainly be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38considered a title contender now. Roger has been talking to Gary. His

0:37:39 > 0:37:38biggest strength is that he's 25% of biggest strength is that he's 2 % of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the way to his development. That's my opinion. I might be wrong, people

0:37:39 > 0:37:38might say I'm nuts but think where he was in October, to where he is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38now, that's eight months down the track, we've only touched the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38physical side of the game, the mental side, the way he's playing,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and all those things. The credit is all for doing nothing. I'm directing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38traffic a little but he's the one putting it all out there. What is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his weakness? What do you tell him? A bit of ice cream now and then

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That sort of stuff. And McCourt His That sort of stuff. And McCourt? His

0:37:39 > 0:37:38weakness might be -- on the court. His weakness might be that he isn't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38quite sure yet of how good he is going to be. He's learning Ed and he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38can see it now but when he really sees the picture, what his game is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38really going to look like, the more he believes in that game, the bigger

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a beast he will be. SUE BARKER: Quite a character, Dimitrov will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38need to believe because in the semifinal he will need the top seed,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Novak Djokovic who came from behind to beat Marin Cilic in five sets and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38reaches fifth consecutive semifinal at Wimbledon. After losing the first

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set, Eric Mack won the next two against a player he hadn't beaten in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38nine attempts but Djokovic found his form to find the victory and go

0:37:39 > 0:37:38through to his 23rd Grand Slam semifinal. But he had its problems,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic, not moving well, he changed his shoes and that certainly

0:37:39 > 0:37:38changed his form. He's such a great competitor, he needed to dig deeper

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and he did. You can see what the win means to him and his coaching team,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38led by Boris Becker will knows what it is like to win in Grand Slams has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38been in many finals, he is only 11 out of the last six, will he be to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Dimitrov in the semifinal? What a treat that will be. They are both so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38informed. -- so in form. We will go to the match between Kyrgios and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Raonic in a moment. In other news, two of the ladies quarterfinals were

0:37:39 > 0:37:38completed today, and Eugenie Bouchard the number 13 seed was on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Court Number One and she defeated Angelique Kerber, the conqueror of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Maria Sharapova, in straight sets, 6-3, six - four. Bouchard has made

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the semifinal of the Australian Open, the French Open, and now she's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the Wimbledon semifinal. Where she will meet in the three seed,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Simona Halep. Simona put in such a confident performance, coming

0:37:39 > 0:37:38through 6-4, 6-0, she was trailing 4-1 in the first set to Lisicki, the

0:37:39 > 0:37:384-1 in the first set to Lisicki the finalists last you, then one ear

0:37:39 > 0:37:38level games in a row, she's in form and enjoying the best year of her

0:37:39 > 0:37:38career, a finalist at the French Open and now she's into her first

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wimbledon semifinal. Everyone delighted, in the Halep camp. So it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is the ladies semifinal stage tomorrow, and this is how it matches

0:37:39 > 0:37:38up. This is the first match on Centre Court tomorrow. We will be on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the air to enjoy the build-up to that one.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The tennis continues late in the evening, it is one set all on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38between Milos Raonic of Canada, the number eight seed and the

0:37:39 > 0:37:3819-year-old sensation Nick Kyrgios who beat Nadal yesterday. He's back

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on Court One today. We can join that at one set all. Arab commentators,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38John Lloyd and Andrew Castle. ANDREW CASTLE: Thank you. They have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38exchanged rallies but the match has been staccato. Nick Kyrgios finding

0:37:39 > 0:37:38inspiration against the run of play, it must be said. Raonic had four

0:37:39 > 0:37:38break points but could not take any of them. The last four games have

0:37:39 > 0:37:38all gone to Raonic. He served them out in one minute and six seconds,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38including a Hawk-eye challenge. One of the features of the second set is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that when Raonic was on serve he did not lose a single point.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Just what he needed to settle down. Nick Kyrgios, this 19-year-old from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Canberra, the Australian capital, the largest inland city, a place he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38loves to be. One of the reasons why his coaching arrangements may change

0:37:39 > 0:37:38at the end of this week. The papers are suddenly full of a young player

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that nobody in the UK had heard of before this tournament. What an

0:37:39 > 0:37:38impact he has had. If he wins this match and were to lose the semifinal

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he would be number 32 in the world, well inside the top 100, if the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament ended right now. 144 in the world right now, and a wildcard

0:37:39 > 0:37:38into the quarterfinal, what a story. Taking a bit of mental time off,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios, in the last of 1520 minutes when he went one break of serve

0:37:39 > 0:37:38down, just let it go a bit in the last set but now he's back in.

0:37:39 > 0:37:3819 aces, two double faults. Ljubcic, the coach, in the middle,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the physical trainer on the right. JOHN LLOYD: Good opportunity, pretty

0:37:39 > 0:37:38high, but you would have expected return there. Sometimes, the way

0:37:39 > 0:37:38these players are serving, you only get one chance in the entire set.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios's phase, it was like he had been given the most wondrous

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Christmas present. He missed that same shot in the tie-breaker. And it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was just as easy as that one and that cost him the first set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie-breaker. A big moment in the context of this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match. Didn't see that coming. That's his dad in the hat. On the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38left, his sister, an actress, and on the right, his coach. A standing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38ovation for a break! Now he's got to back it up.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Casual, very casual. Did not bent on that one! Sodhi could use his good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38racket head control and flick that one but he didn't bend. You can just

0:37:39 > 0:37:38see, there, very casual. -- thought he could use his good racket head

0:37:39 > 0:37:38control. That could have been very expensive.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Good night! This Canadian player, up into the top ten in the world at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38number nine, a career-high ranking, reacted so well to the loss of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38first set tie-break and is reacting well to losing his serve in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38previous game. The feet didn't work again! You

0:37:39 > 0:37:38wouldn't blame him for being tired out. He was going to old to toe with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Rafael Nadal on Centre Court -- toe to toe, last evening. It was an

0:37:39 > 0:37:38emotional contest, one that required every bit of the soul. He's giving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38himself a real talking to at the changeover. He's been rattling on it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38himself, berating himself. He is charismatic, isn't he? Heels. Good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38job, you said still unsolved, sarcastically. It is OK if he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38releases it. You would rather it be more of a positive thing that,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38rather than being sarcastic but if that is what it takes to get it out

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of the way, having something to eat, a little drink, now, immediately, as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38soon as he walks out for the next point, you've got to get back into

0:37:39 > 0:37:38business. He said after the victory of an adult committee said, I'm just

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a kid, -- just after the victory over Nadal, he said, I'm just a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38normal kid. But we know that his life and the attention paid to it is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38not going to be normal for a while. But he's wearing well. He's back

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve here. And it is Raonic is going quietly about the job of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38getting back into the set. We should credit him. If he plays as badly as

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he did to start the set, we are not likely to see that again, if at all.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Only the second service game he has lost in the whole tournament,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38unbelievable. Exactly. Curtius had already started running,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he had an open court. -- Kyrgios had already started running.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38It looked like an easy game, 30 0, easy forehand, to go 40-0. Kyrgios

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is back in the game. Maybe only briefly.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Did a good job they're just getting that back into play. -- did a good

0:37:39 > 0:37:38job there. It appeared to be long. Raonic has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38knocked a spare tennis ball towards Kyrgios to begin the next game. And,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38yes. Neil balls, the racket, new strings, new everything. Perhaps

0:37:39 > 0:37:38they'll go off and have a shower and a map! They've been playing for one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hour and 25 minutes. Very impressed with Raonic. We talk about these

0:37:39 > 0:37:38youngsters. He has come through the draw so quietly, I don't know if we

0:37:39 > 0:37:38have talked about him enough, he's 23 and was the newcomer of the year

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on the ATP Tour back in 2011. All this talk, rightly so, but Dimitrov

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Kyrgios. He not exactly old at 23, he's still improving -- all this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38talk about Dimitrov and Kyrgios That is good support. It's just the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38right time, you sad another flat five or six minutes. The fanatics

0:37:39 > 0:37:38are keeping Nick Kyrgios going! -- he has had another flat five or six

0:37:39 > 0:37:38minutes. They might be Australian as well!

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That's a tidy game from Raonic. This is impressive composure. We've

0:37:39 > 0:37:38talked about Amelie Mauresmo, with Andy Murray, Stefan Edberg with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer, Boris Becker with Djokovic, Goran Ivanisevic has worked with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Cilic, a quarterfinalist here who played beautifully today against

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Djokovic and Ljubcic there was one of three and if ever a player

0:37:39 > 0:37:38maximised his talent it was him He maximised his talent it was him. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was brought on board at the French Open 2013 by Milos Raonic. The first

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thing Milos Raonic did was get his old college on board so they speak

0:37:39 > 0:37:38with the same voice because they know each other so well. -- he got

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his old coach on board. When with 30 years of experience, one is a top

0:37:39 > 0:37:38player, and that's a great unit That is the physical trainer, the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38wardrobe on the right-hand side This is a great professional team.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And I think we are seeing the evidence of the work now. They

0:37:39 > 0:37:38wanted him to have mobility and also stability and muscle control. He has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38dropped seven kilos. He's on a gluten-free diet, Raonic. He's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38beginning to look like the finished article. And he has legs like you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38cannot believe. This service motion. It's quite something to behold.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Ljubcic thinks he can get 150 miles an hour or more on this service at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will and of Raonic, who holds back for the sake of versatility. -- out

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of Raonic. 140 miles an hour is holding back! He said in Canada last

0:37:39 > 0:37:38year that he was having him serve at 150 miles an hour time and time

0:37:39 > 0:37:38again and he can do it. Amazing Frightening.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38There you go. That's probably the best serve in the world.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Genuinely hazardous. If you are trying to call a line, or pick up

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the tennis balls. Lleyton Hewitt will be saying to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him, hang on in there, mate! Make him in the victory! Exactly. -- make

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him earn the victory. Genuine optimism for Australian

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tennis at the moment on the men's side, eight of them in the top 00

0:37:39 > 0:37:38side, eight of them in the top 200 in the world. Lleyton Hewitt, there,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and Adam Jones, a former Wimbledon champion from Great Britain. Next to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38her, Judy, formerly Judy Teegarden. Ken Rosewall was nicknamed Thought

0:37:39 > 0:37:38because he did not have any muscles! He was the last Australian in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38final, against Jimmy Connors, the best player never to win Wimbledon,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that was. One of the great one-handed backhand of all time Ken

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Rosewall and still plays every day. He just loves to play. He's one of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38those players that just loves to go out and hit balls and still has one

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of the heaviest backhands, even now. He does not move quite as well

0:37:39 > 0:37:38but you would still back off when he back and that you! Loads of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australian support. He has to remember, remember, Kyrgios, that he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is just one break of serve down. He is just one break of serve down He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38won't be feeling great right now. One hour and 34 minutes played. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will be tired but he's not out of it yet. Beautifully done. His serve is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38such a joy to watch. I haven't seen anybody with the opening move he has

0:37:39 > 0:37:38on that serve, with the racket facing straight up. It's very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38strange. That in terms of getting the wrist

0:37:39 > 0:37:38involved, -- but in terms of getting the wrist involved, getting that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38wrist snap, Kevin Curran was a bit like that. You couldn't see where

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that thing was going either. age of 3. His parents moved to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Ontario, he was part of the National Tennis Centre in Montreal.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That was a huge forehand. The first one was big enough, this one, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tried to think squash shot but hate Moz chance. That came through the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38court lightning fast. But he has no chance.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Yesterday the quickest play between serves, he is ready to go in about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38four seconds. It is unbelievable. There so much body involved in that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38motion. Good job, there, the Australian

0:37:39 > 0:37:38make your opponent serve it out. Don't give away. Raonic has already

0:37:39 > 0:37:38played one sloppy game, it can happen. Unlikely, but it could.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios had the lead. That is right. In this set, didn't he. He is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38travelling with his sister and his dad. He gets really homesick, even

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when he based in Melbourne, he don't like to be away from Canberra, there

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is dad in the hat. Sister to the left, our right. Sometimes mum and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38his older brother travel, but he is a touring the pro so he is based in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Canada. So 144 in the world. That ranking has now gone and he will be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well inside the top 100 and a regular fixture at the big events,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38so his life has changed this week. This is one sport though, that he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38can't afford to be homesick in, you are on the roadway too much for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that. True. Serving for a two set to one lead.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38There is the inexperience coming in there.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Shot selection. Just ran out of ideas, didn't he.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Sound performance. From Milos Raonic in this game. 40

0:37:39 > 0:37:38love and three set points. UMPIRE: Mr Raonic is challenging the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38call. She is correcting her call. She is. She had to regain her

0:37:39 > 0:37:38breath; I hope she is all right. UMPIRE: Mr Kyrgios is channelling

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the call. Well it is an assumption he is challenging the call.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is fine. UMPIRE: Mr Kyrgios is channelling

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the ball, the ball is called out. Nick's wrong on this one, because he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38didn't hear the line judge say, correction it was good. Point is, it

0:37:39 > 0:37:38is an ace and the set is over. She said correction. That is like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38ten seconds. That is not allowed.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38She said challenge first, then she said correction. That is what she

0:37:39 > 0:37:38did. I know that, aim just saying what happens if that is a break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38point or something? You know what, he is just tired. He didn't here

0:37:39 > 0:37:38her, she got hit and was probably recovering, but listen, it is set

0:37:39 > 0:37:38over and Nick just needs to sit down an cool off and get ready. It was a

0:37:39 > 0:37:3840 love point so he wasn't going to win it realisticically and the ten

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second was about one before she overruled it. He needs to spend all

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this time at the change over, vetting and getting his mind back on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the job, doesn't want to waste time about something that is of very

0:37:39 > 0:37:38little importance. He has clarity, because he is two sets to one down,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he has to win the next two, he knows what the task is, do you think he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38has the energy, or the meantal reserves? I am not going to count

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him out. I think Raonic will win the match. I will be surprised if he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doesn't, he is a shot maker the young Aussie, he has surprised

0:37:39 > 0:37:38everybody. He keeps surprising them. It was impressive set there from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Raonic, after the early break, you see the winners unforced errors look

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the same. Service stats are a lot better than the Aussie.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Taking a bit of extra time would be the right thing to do. There are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38elements of wildness coming into his game.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And a reminder it wasn't just his match against Rafael Nadal on Centre

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Court last evening that has drained his battery, the match against

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Gasquet. I mean, he won at 12-so in the fifth set. Saved a match point

0:37:39 > 0:37:38at 6-5 in the fifth, on an overall. So it was matched to Gasquet but he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenged. He saved nine all together in that match. It is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38remarkable. So does he have another push left, another big effort? I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hope so. To come back from two sets down to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38beat Gasquet. Impressive.erly yen on at the Australian Open he lost from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38two sets up. He has worked on his fit's since then.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38This will be a delight to his trainer. That is what I was

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thinking. When he made this move and his trainer was up there clapping,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he is thinking that is not the work I put in there. That is mine. Kudos

0:37:39 > 0:37:38for me! Oh yes. You see he never used to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38move his bottom half like that. That is wonderful footwork on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38right-hand side there. His coach. No-nonsense. You if you if he tells

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you do an extra run round the block, you do it. How fast would you like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38me to do it? How high would you like me to jump?

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Here is Carlos. 22 years out there. I bet that has never happened.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: New balls please. He is exciting, the young Aussie. To

0:37:39 > 0:37:38watch. You look at his game, and you think, sometimes you get players

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that come through, get to 16s or quarter, sometimes they turn out to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38be one hit wonder, in terms of their never get to the potential, you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38think he looks like he has got it but they don't make it through. You

0:37:39 > 0:37:38look at his game and the strengths he has got, and you look at where

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the weaknesses maybe shot selection at the moment. He is a bit raw at

0:37:39 > 0:37:38times but of course he would be The bottom line is he has proved, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38loves a big occasion, physically, he is incredible fit. He has power in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38all aspects of his game. He moves well. He is not afraid of anybody.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He was intimidated by Nadal. You have a future top tern, that is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38being cautious. You think he is that good? No question.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Trance Well the Aussies will be delighted to hear all these opinion,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38they have been looking for a superstar. They have probably got

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one. I would love to know what Tomic

0:37:39 > 0:37:38thinks about this, who was the next big thing two or three years ago.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Unbelieven. Nothing you can do. -- unbelievable. Nothing you can do.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is his 29th ace. That base he is hitting from.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And there are buildings built in this very city that are not built on

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a foundation as strong has the. It is unbelievable.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Glorious service game. 69 seconds. No wonder his coach said yes, when

0:37:39 > 0:37:38asked to work. I hope most of the tall ones are built on the right

0:37:39 > 0:37:38foundation, that one on the left, Battersea Power Station, that is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38undergoing a massive regeneration, the American embassy is going to be

0:37:39 > 0:37:38over there, to the right. Coming south of the river.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That looked a bit of a weary shot that one. Getting down low on that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38backhand. What a tournament this is turning

0:37:39 > 0:37:38out to be Forkan that. With Milos Raonic and Eugenie Bouchard doing so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well. Doesn't she look the real deal. All the records people start

0:37:39 > 0:37:38talking about at the end of the tournament, they never account for

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Greg Rusedski, and I think of him or certainly his background Canadian,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when he went to the 1997 US Open final. They consider him Canadian,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38although he swore allegiance and loyally to the British Davis Cup

0:37:39 > 0:37:38over the years and is still working with us. He will set records all

0:37:39 > 0:37:38over the show. Raonic. He comes from month Meg row. He came

0:37:39 > 0:37:38over with his parents at the age of three to Canada. -- Montenegro.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios, he is getting frustrated, so what he is doing, some of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serves, that last one he is moving a split second sooner and trying to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38guess which way Raonic is going. Didn't work that time.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Fast match, isn't it. Unbelievable. Raonic went to change his racket

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there. Kyrgios is up at the line, making his point, saying "I am

0:37:39 > 0:37:38ready, what are you doing? UMPIRE: Mr Kyrgios is challenging

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the call. The ball is call confidence out. -- called out.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38UMPIRE: Mr Kyrgios has two challenges remaining.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The shot selection was a bit dodgy there, but 40 love I suppose, he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38will get away with it. Just occasionally throws in those sort of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38strange shots. And gets out of the game to keep his

0:37:39 > 0:37:38nose in front at 4-3. Despite a slight lack of concentration, which

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you can forgive after the week you sad. He has done well to hang in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there after losing the vote. I thought he might go down an early

0:37:39 > 0:37:38break. He looked a little fatigued. He played them tired looking shots

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the third but he's rebounded. in the third but he's rebounded

0:37:39 > 0:37:38He's got the sort of weapons in his game that he has, you know is that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one break here, anything could happen on grass. Fun to see a fifth

0:37:39 > 0:37:38set. Hard to believe that he played two Nottingham Challenges,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38back-to-back, in the first you lost in the first day to John Patrick

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Smith, his Australian had about the second one, he forgot to enter it so

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he went through qualifying, he went three rounds and then he won the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38whole thing. He got a wildcard into Wimbledon, he saved nine match

0:37:39 > 0:37:38points against Richard Gasquet, went to Hawk-Eye and got the decision

0:37:39 > 0:37:38when he was match points down to Richard Gasquet, it's an amazing

0:37:39 > 0:37:38journey. And it has captured the imagination in Australia. If you are

0:37:39 > 0:37:38an Australian, listening to this and still awake, well done, hang on in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38there! Might have a fifth set! We will see. Raonic to serve.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios just shouting at himself. First serve! Raonic happy to exert

0:37:39 > 0:37:38pressure. He is moving well, for a big guy, Raonic is getting around

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this court. No. Beautiful approach shot, leaning

0:37:39 > 0:37:38into that backhand slice, easily put away.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Just accelerates Ahmad forehand -- on that forehand. Had to make it.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Nicely done! This kid has got spirit, right! Certainly has. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38might be hurting a little physically but he is there mentally. That point

0:37:39 > 0:37:38didn't last long. He's having to go deep now, isn t

0:37:39 > 0:37:38he? If he does get out of this game the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38crowd will certainly show their appreciation.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38LAUGHTER . A good hold. That forehand and

0:37:39 > 0:37:3815-30 was the most impressive shot, but wonderful stuff. The youngest

0:37:39 > 0:37:38man in the drawer and he's producing bits out of nowhere. It tells you a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38lot about men's tennis and how deep it goes and it tells you a lot about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38him. Apparently not always easy to have around, making do the right

0:37:39 > 0:37:38things, -- to making do the right things, I kill these stories from

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the Australians, but they always say it is about the spirit and the drive

0:37:39 > 0:37:38-- I hear these stories. And the downside of working with something

0:37:39 > 0:37:38like this is no problem, the upside is huge. And they are not just

0:37:39 > 0:37:38saying that because he is winning. They've been saying that for two or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38three years. And don't forget, Raonic is trying to do something

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that he hasn't done before. That's right. It's so difficult to break

0:37:39 > 0:37:38this man's serve. Nobody serves He this man's serve. Nobody serves. He

0:37:39 > 0:37:38doesn't bother with them, you just service aces! -- thereat no body

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serves. -- there are no body serves. You might as well guess one way or

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the other because he isn't going to serve into the body. Just take a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38chance! Oh yes. It's exhausting to get down low and get your body

0:37:39 > 0:37:38weight behind the ball. Slicing through the grass. Another quick

0:37:39 > 0:37:38service game. That is what he did come he went one way half a second

0:37:39 > 0:37:38before the serve, and then it went in the other direction fast Oriel

0:37:39 > 0:37:38--! . You would not want to go in the other direction, you might get

0:37:39 > 0:37:38hit. Points lost on serve, Raonic, number, in the fourth set. Videos is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38depending on the tie-break. -- Kyrgios is depending on the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie-break. None! It's unbelievable. UMPIRE: The call is being

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenged. Mr Raonic has two challenges remaining.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38If these two were boxes they would be in the middle of the ring right

0:37:39 > 0:37:38now just throwing haymakers at each other. -- if they were boxers.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38That is good. It takes something out of you when you are leading 40-0 and

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you play a couple of loose points. I am not sure how much he has left in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the tank. He keeps on revealing I assumed that is a carbohydrate drink

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of some sort? Every time we thought he was going to go away he has stuck

0:37:39 > 0:37:38around. Exactly right. That's the sign of a player with a huge future.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Mentally, you have to have the toughness. You can't get away with

0:37:39 > 0:37:38being anything other than battle hard and tough in grand slam 's

0:37:39 > 0:37:38committee is proving himself here. -- in Grand Slams. He is proving

0:37:39 > 0:37:38himself here. Over 11,000 people here, loving it.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Serving to stay in the set, Milos Raonic. That is a must! -- that is a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38must! -- that is a miss. Just snatched at that one. Had a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38decent shot at that, just out of his set -- hitting zone, and it wasn't a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38big serve either. He is an automatic pilot. He is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38flying on fumes, it would seem. Adrenaline kicking in, in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tie-break. What a bad miss that was! And while cookie is through his eyes

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and he is heard to the sky, Raonic had a good look at him. Gosh wow

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios through his eyes and his head to the sky. We are into the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38second tie-break of the match, the first set went to Nick Kyrgios,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38against the run of play slightly. Big breath. He has to win this to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stay in the tournament. It is a line ball, and apologies if you heard

0:37:39 > 0:37:38what Nick Kyrgios thought of that! A great shot from Raonic. Well am

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tired. -- well tired. Well umpired. 37 aces. Came out of

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that one. Great return. Another big return as well. So both

0:37:39 > 0:37:38of those, big. Fantastic play from Raonic. The like of which we haven't

0:37:39 > 0:37:38seen from him before. Looking to make his first Grand Slam semifinal

0:37:39 > 0:37:38appearance at Wimbledon. Three points away.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38The machine! Best decision he ever made employing Ljubicic in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38middle, Piatti on the left, and his trainer on the right. Set fair at

0:37:39 > 0:37:385-1, Nick Kyrgios has to do with Houdini here. -- he has to do a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Houdini. tie-break. Decisive, aggressive

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tennis. What a feeling this must be. Five

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match points. UMPIRE: The call is being

0:37:39 > 0:37:38challenged. The call -- ball was called out.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Wadham, Nick Kyrgios! He isn't going to let this go without a fight! --

0:37:39 > 0:37:38well done, Nick Kyrgios! Deep breath. Holding on. Dad and sister

0:37:39 > 0:37:38getting nervous. Mum and brother in Australia getting nervous. Still two

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match points. Down the middle at 133 mph. He deserves his place in the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38semifinal! What a tremendous run from Nick Kyrgios. But this is a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38moment for Milos Raonic. A triumph for everybody in the team and there

0:37:39 > 0:37:38could be more to come. The man who defeated Richard Gasquet from many

0:37:39 > 0:37:38match points down, his son did himself proud with his victory over

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Richard Gasquet and Rafael Nadal only yesterday. Who knows, with a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38day of rest, perhaps he could have played better, hard to say.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Tremendous effort from the Aussie. He did so well. But the bottom line

0:37:39 > 0:37:38was that it wasn't just a serving exhibition from Raonic, but 39

0:37:39 > 0:37:38aces, hitting the lines, I do not care who you are, if you serve like

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that anybody was going to beat him is in tie-breakers.

0:37:39 > 0:37:386-7, 6-2, 674, 706. Nervous everybody towards the end. If you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38stayed up in Australia to watch this you must have been proud of Nick

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios. He will advance up the rankings a huge distance, well

0:37:39 > 0:37:38inside the top 100, probably around probably around 65-70 in the world.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38And that improvement will surely continue with the confidence that he

0:37:39 > 0:37:38takes into the North American summer hard court circuit and the U.S.

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Open, which he will get into, at the end of that, early September. We've

0:37:39 > 0:37:38seen the birth of our star tennis player, a star Australian in

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Kyrgios, but it is Raonic and will advance to the semifinal to play

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Federer. I reckon he's got a shout. If he serves like that he's got a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38shot against anybody. And still doesn't break a sweat and still not

0:37:39 > 0:37:38a hair out of place! A serve of true violence, brutality and beauty all

0:37:39 > 0:37:38mixed into one. Great support from the fanatics for their man that they

0:37:39 > 0:37:38could not get into this time. He's been a great addition to the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38tournament, the 19-year-old. -- but they couldn't get him through this

0:37:39 > 0:37:38time. Milos Raonic goes through as the court gets taken down for the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38evening. Great tennis and head on Centre Court, and so much of the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38great tennis at the All-England Club. We can hear from the winner

0:37:39 > 0:37:38now. Milos Raonic. Congratulations, it in this battle, how much are you

0:37:39 > 0:37:38enjoying that victory? It hasn't really sunk in. I just stepped off

0:37:39 > 0:37:38God. It's great to have that kind of a win, especially at a tournament

0:37:39 > 0:37:38I've always wanted to play, and haven't been able to in previous

0:37:39 > 0:37:38years, to be able to change around like this is special. You said

0:37:39 > 0:37:38before the match you had to serve well against somebody who can also

0:37:39 > 0:37:38serve well, you did, in the fourth set you might have dropped about

0:37:39 > 0:37:38three or four points including the tie-break! A good start, it will

0:37:39 > 0:37:38always make my day easier. What about making the semifinal? We know

0:37:39 > 0:37:38that you've been proving yourself a big name on the circuit but this is

0:37:39 > 0:37:38another tech for you. Another step forward, the goal is to be the best

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in the world and this is one of those steps you have to take to keep

0:37:39 > 0:37:38getting better, keep climbing, getting those big success is that I

0:37:39 > 0:37:38dream of, but I want to achieve, and I am very happy that I will do that

0:37:39 > 0:37:38and to do it on such a big stage is really special. It will get even

0:37:39 > 0:37:38bigger because you've got a semifinal against Federer. What do

0:37:39 > 0:37:38you think of that? I have to do what I've been doing, serve well, take

0:37:39 > 0:37:38care of myself, it will be a great challenge, one that I will relish

0:37:39 > 0:37:38because it is something that I want, to put myself in this position, give

0:37:39 > 0:37:38myself this opportunity and I've got to give it my all and who knows what

0:37:39 > 0:37:38can happen. We wish you the best of luck, well done today. SUE BARKER:

0:37:39 > 0:37:38We wish him well, what a performance, the first Canadian man

0:37:39 > 0:37:38to reach the semifinals of a Grand Slam since 1923. And we thought 77

0:37:39 > 0:37:38years was a long wait! What a performance from him, his previous

0:37:39 > 0:37:38best at Wimbledon was reaching the second round but now he's through to

0:37:39 > 0:37:38the semifinal, to face the seven time champion, Roger Federer. What a

0:37:39 > 0:37:38year, what a match it has been for Milos Raonic. That was on course

0:37:39 > 0:37:38one. We talk about Canadian success, there was some more earlier today

0:37:39 > 0:37:38because this was Eugenie Bouchard. Just 20, and the 13 seed, up against

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Angelique Kerber. Kerber put out Maria Sharapova yesterday. 6-3, 6-4,

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Bouchard husband in the semifinals of the French Open and the

0:37:39 > 0:37:38Australian Open and is now into the Wimbledon semifinal. -- she has been

0:37:39 > 0:37:38in those semifinals. That was her celebration, this is what she said

0:37:39 > 0:37:38afterwards. Huge congratulations, it looked as Evangeline Kerber was not
