Day 6, Part 1 Wimbledon

Hello and welcome to day six of Wimbledon. Not sure how many Welsh

viewers we will have tuning in after all the celebrations last night.

Well done to you. Here at Wimbledon, it is super Saturday. With so many

top players involved, with clay being stopped ten times in five

days, there is a backlog, so there will be played tomorrow with a

People's Sunday for the first time since 2004. At least 18 guaranteed

singles matches plus those not completed today. Details will be

completed by the club later this afternoon but tickets must be bought

online. If you can get here, it should be quite a day. The

atmosphere will be electric. Play is going to get underway on all courts,

including centre and number one, at 11:30am, so get here early. That is

an extra day tomorrow, but now lets take a look at today and who is

involved. There are some of the players arriving. That is Simona

Halep, seeded five. She reached the semifinals in 2014. She is on Centre

Court. Petra Kvitova is here, two times champion at Wimbledon. She

hasn't completed her second-round match yet against Katarina Makarova

but she is looking very relaxed. This is the man everybody is talking

about, the big serving American Sam Querrey, because he is on the brink

of pulling off one of the biggest shocks in tennis by putting out

Novak Djokovic. He leads 2-0. This was Novak Djokovic, playing on court

14 this morning. He didn't look well. There was talk with his coach,

Boris Becker, playing shots and practising. He has got a lot of work

to do when play gets underway on Court Number One at 12pm. Lets take

a look at the order of play. Simona Halep against Kiki Bertens is up

first. John Millman against Andy Murray. Murray is the world number

two. And then Milos Raonic, big serving, semifinalist in 2014,

taking on the American Jack Sock, who won the doubles in 2014. All

eyes will be on Court Number One. We will be there to see this match

resumed. Novak Djokovic against Sam Querrey. 7-6, 6-1, racing through

that second. Djokovic couldn't do anything. He has been undefeated in

grand slam events all year. He holds all four this year, so that could be

a big shock. Madison Keys Exxon Alize Cornet. And then Nick Kyrgios

against Feliciano Lopez, both of them coming through in five sets

yesterday, so they will be a bit weary today. Other matches to look

forward to, Carina Witthoft of Germany up against fellow German

Angelique Kerber. We will be going to that one. I think that hopefully

Witthoft will learn from when they met last year, losing in 45 minutes,

6-0, 6-0. Petra Kvitova has lost the opening set to Katarina Makarova, so

some work to do for the two-time champion. Kei Nishikori is taking on

Andrei Kuznetsov. And Steve Johnson, started yesterday, up against former

semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov. That is on court 18. I mentioned we have

had ten rain delays throughout the day, and Carol Kirkwood was bringing

us such bad news last week. She has become a bit of a part timer and she

has got the weekend off, so we have got Darren bet. We hope you have

better news for us. We hang on your every word. I am usually the voice

of doom. We have got all of the fans coming onto Murray Mount. It's

really been filling up. Maybe people are expecting a shock on the big

screen. I can see sunglasses, not many umbrellas, but we may need an

umbrella. The forecast is for sunny spells but a chance this afternoon

of a fuchsia showers. They could be heavy but they won't last long. The

wind is quite strong so, if you are not in the sun, it will feel quite

cold. That could make it difficult for the players. After 6pm, the

chances showers much reduced. Temperatures peaking at about 19 or

20. We need a forecast for tomorrow. Tomorrow should be dry. We are a bit

twitchy about the middle part of the day, where there will be more clout

around. More likely to have rain near the English Channel. Hopefully

dry tomorrow. It should be warmer as well. Quick heads up for next week,

still a chance of a fuchsia hours, nothing particularly nasty so, with

a bit of luck, we should get lots of play. -- a chance of a feud showers.

At the moment, all I can see are some great bottomed clouds. That

isn't a particularly good sign. I tell you what, Darren, you can stay

because you have brought us a lot more better news. Carol boom? That

is what we will save on Monday. -- carol boom? John McEnroe is here. I

thought you lived here. I apologise. I have been so excited about being

in the royal box for the first time in 39 years. Wow! My wife ordered me

to close my jacket, but I can't, because I have eaten too much. I'm

going to keep it open. Apologise. We have done a couple of openings here.

Yes, we have. It's nice. I'm excited that there is play Saturday and

Sunday. It's magical, because people can get tickets online. They will

start at 11:30am on all courts. It's a chance for the Williams sisters to

rest a bit. They've had a tough couple of days. I'm excited.

American TV does a show on Sunday anyway, so there is usually no body

hair, you guys are having a few drinks and we are working and

toiling. -- nobody here. We will talk about Novak Djokovic in a

moment. It has been quite a week here and elsewhere. John in the dale

has this for us. -- John Inver Dale. Wimbledon has a crucial role to play

this year in eggs -- restoring our faith in normality. It is a mixed up

world at the moment but, in south-west 19, no sign of the

Icelandic number one. He doesn't even have a world ranking. In his

dreams, he is Marcus Willis. There is the rub, Willis didn't win, and

neither did Dan Evans, both exiting the Men's Singles at the hands of a

seven times winner determined to remain in the event as long as

possible, a giant who invites nostalgia while still harbouring

ambitions of being champion again. While we laud the new styles, we

actually crave the old stars even more. We watch Becker, Lendl, even

McEnroe on the sidelines and yet we yearn for them to still be on the

court, to return us to a time when the world probably wasn't any safer

or less crazy but we somehow imagine that it was, a time when Britain

always had a seed in the Women's Singles. Except, hang on, we've got

one of those, too. We are almost blase about having a man in the

latter stages of the Men's Singles, but Johanna Konta was in the

semifinals in Australia, and she has gone to the top 20 in inside a year.

That isn't just good, it's Icelandic. When you go to Wimbledon,

you know what you are going to get, aces from Johnny 's nerve, backhands

from Gasquet, dropped shots from Andy, nervous Novak, seven shades of

Serena, tantrums and tears. Everything as it should be, from a

to zzz. Over the years, there has always been the occasional upset,

but fundamentally it's purpose is to tease and titillate us before the

tournament starts to reel on Monday because, in the world of Wimbledon,

you are unseeded for a reason, you are an outsider for a reason, you

are a bit part cameo player because, in this greatest of shows, the

starring roles for the stars. That's the way it is, some things will

never change. Sadly, in some cases. At least we have some better news

for today, but I am not sure it is good news for Novak Djokovic,

because he was practising on court 14, the championship court, this

morning, with Boris Becker. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

He looked like he didn't really want to be there at all, just going

through the motions. He was hitting against a junior, getting some big

serves against him, but the returns were going into the bottom of the

net, he was dropping his head, doing a lot of talking. You've got to save

it for the match. Listen, first of all, the best thing that could have

happened to Novak was that it rained last night and they cancelled. This

gives him a chance to regroup. Listen, there is a lot of players in

that top half of the draw that didn't sleep as well because they

are thinking, wait a second, if this guy isn't in the tournament, guess

who has got a better chance, everybody in the field, including

Federer. Something tells me he will have his act together. Sam Querrey

probably had quite a sleepless night, laid-back as he is. It's hard

not to pick the guy, but I think it puts it in perspective. We've talked

about his superhuman effort, holding all four titles, nobody doing that

for 47 years. He is human. He is a human being. He snapped. I'm trying

to remember the last time I saw him sort of lose it completely and pool,

dare I say it, a Nick Kyrgios for a couple of games and throw away a

set. The only good news is that it is best five. You do have a bit of

wiggle room that you can do something like that, but he's put

his back against the wall. If Sam serves as well as he did, it was 130

serves one of the other, not missing. Last year, a guided the

same thing to him, it first of sets. -- a guy did the same thing. Since

then, he won Wimbledon, Australia, French. You are giving Djokovic fans

a lot of hope. Yesterday, Sam was playing so well, but Djokovic, we

couldn't really understand what was going on. The almost looked amused

at some point. When somebody is playing that well, it is hard to

know what to do. -- he almost looked bemused. He wants to get in these

extended rallies. Sam has always had a big game and a big forehand. I

have seen him since he was a kid. The part that we question in America

is his intensity. In this tournament, he did something that he

has never done, coming from 2-0 down. That really helps Sam Querrey

mentally, that he has battled. He was known as a guy who gave in and

didn't stick with it. If you remember, in the tie-break in this

one, there were a couple of ties, one in particular, where Novak

dived. It was an incredible shot. Sam had a couple of quite nervy

forehands in the tie-break. Exactly. The second set, the way he was

playing, the way he seemed to lack effort, we were, wait a minute,

what's going on? Are they going to call the trainer? It was extremely

shocking. There was no indication. He hasn't won more than three games

in a set in the last seven, Sam Querrey. And he hasn't done well

against the top guys. He lost early in both majors this year, he didn't

do well at Queen's. He lost 7-6 in the third. It was a bit more of the

same. But I think these Americans are feeding off each other right

now. Johnson had a great grass court -- grass court run. John is no came

early to Queen's, which I didn't think he has ever done. -- John is

nerve. And Jack Sock up against Milos

Raonic today. And there is a big upside for both guys, especially if

Kerry were to win here. Their eyes bulging out of their heads if that

happens. That puts pressure on guys. But Jack Sock has a wicked forehand.

He has got good hands. Milos is ready. They could be interruptions

from showers from Djokovic and quarry on Court One. Where would you

put your money? I think it will be difficult for Sam to get it done. I

would pick Novak. That's an easy pick. Sam looked to be hitting the

ball sweetly. He has got a lethal forehand. He looked to be moving

better, impeding harder. He was on such a role last night. The rain

came at the best time for Djokovic. It was the worst time for Sam. He

was in the zone, he couldn't do anything wrong. As long as he keeps

competing hard, he will have a shot. He isn't going to just fall over

now. He's got a big serve. It's easy to be a coach now, just be ready

from the first point, play the way you have been playing and don't let

it affect you. Exceptionally difficult to pull off. There is an

unbelievable upside for Sam if he wins this. Even Sam has got to be

super excited right now. If you were coaching him, would you be saying,

you've got to get as many first serves as you can, keeping on the

back foot, keep Djokovic moving? -- keep him. The game plan he has come

up with is the game plan with other big guys, to attack and make Novak

feel uncomfortable, which is very hard to do. If you are able to sort

of dictate the points and shorten them if you want and go bigger and

not let him get a rhythm, that is your best shot. It isn't like these

guys are going to beat him in long, extended rallies. He wants to

fatigue you. You want you to come in ten shots into the rally. I saw Sam

do something, I think it was in the tie-break, he came in off Novak's

serve. That is, to me, was really smart. It put pressure on them. He

is trying to win a calendar Grand Slam, a golden slam, adding the

Olympics to the other four. He is doing something historical. This guy

has got to make Novak feel some pressure. He's got to go for it,

he's not got to win the long rallies, is got to take chances as

he did yesterday. He's got to feel that luck is on his side. He has won

some tough matches. Cilic went the days and days. Sam Querrey, people

may forget this, but he has been in the world top 20. People thought he

was going to reach the world top ten. What has held him back, for me,

knowing and liking him as a guy, hitting with him in the past,

laid-back, not intense enough, not wanting it enough, and these guys

pull out all the stops. Forget about that practice session, Boris just

wants to get his head into this and get him focused. We saw what

happened to Serena last year, playing Heather Watson, she almost

lost that, and she won the tournament. And yesterday. Exactly.

She went for the Grand Slam. That is a similar situation. What they are

doing is monumental and historic and they want to keep it going, but they

are human. Absolutely. All the players in the top half will be

having a look, and I am thinking that Andy Murray might be having a

close eye on Court Number One. That was the target for him. He is on

Centre Court today. What do you make of his progress? I think he has

played better than anybody in the tournament. He struggled a bit early

in Queen's. I think part of that was the hangover from losing to Novak in

the French. I think he was undecided if he was even going to play at

Queen's. I think he decided to and ended up watching it well and

unfortunately he had Milos Raonic, and he came through and one that in

three. That would have been a big loss for him. He has had inspiration

from Ivan Lendl being around. Well said! Diplomatic. You can't help but

think it will be a big thing for him. Just adding that bit of belief.

That is what it boils down to. The way he is playing right now, it's

hard to imagine, the way he is playing, that he won't get all the

way to the end of the tournament. Of course, there is tennis to be

played, and there are guys like Kyrgios, if he gets hot, that drive

anybody crazy. He has got so many shots, Murray, so much choice. The

final piece of the puzzle is his willingness to move forward and take

it to players when he needs to. It may matter against Kyrgios. It will

matter against Djokovic, whoever it is. It is Millman today. What sort

of game plan do you think he will have today? John Millman is somebody

who is happy to be there. He is going to be, first and foremost,

trying to figure out some way to make Andy Murray feel uncomfortable,

Allassani where even. That is easier said than done. What Andy Murray is

going to do is to play exactly the way he does play. He has made a

concerted effort effort to come in off his returns, and even before

Ivan people were preaching that, but his tendency was to think, I am so

quick that I can counterpunch. Ivan was the first guy that got him

realising, you will be more dangerous if you have both. To me,

he does that. He has worked on his second serve, that is better. When

it gets tight, all players, that is what can break down. Finally,

volleying. If he is going to win this and they few more majors, he

will have to incorporate that. But he is amazing. And moving so well.

Have you met Ivan Lendl in the locker room? Have you said hello or

had a shoulder barge? Way too many times already. We can have a good

laugh at this point. I saw him the first day he got to Queen's. I saw

him, here he comes, just when I finally was doing a couple of weeks

of coaching, he is back! In a way, it is good. One of the best things

for us old, it starts with the letter F, guys, it makes us feel

more a part of it. When Stephan was around, you had Ivan, I can see

where they get the juices flowing a little bit, if you can make 1%

difference... These guys, they are so professional and awesome, seeing

what they have accomplished in the last ten years, and you see Raonic,

all of these guys trying to bridge the gap, to get closer, doing

everything possible... Hopefully it is a win- win for the people

involved, but more importantly for the tennis. You have got a date in

the royal box today. Milos is on court. There is no fist pump ring

allowed. I'm going to be commentated. You are not there for

the day? No, I get to watch a fantastic women's match. Simona

Halep is playing. Kiki Bertens, semifinalist. So that should be very

competitive. Who would have thought, when I first came here in 1977, when

you and I were both losing semifinalists, and I won't you...

No! And you won't ask me about losing to collars. And I had

difficulty getting membership of the All-England Club. Hopefully I won't

be in the back row. David Beckham is in there today. There are a whole

bunch of sport stars in there. We will see where this pans out. I'm a

bit concerned about the seating plan. We will have a look as we go.

John, thank you. You can walk through that door and straight

through to the royal box. Have you got your past? I've got my tickets.

Once every 39 years! I'm still waiting. We have got some tennis for

you right now, because we are going to be heading out to see Angelique

Kerber in just a moment, but first, play is under way. There is no rain

at the moment. On court 18, this match was held over yesterday

because of the rain, and it is still uncertain.

This match is available on the website. There are up to 15 court is

available online, on the app and unconnected TV. -- on connected TV.

Moving over to court number 12, as I can hear John McEnroe getting a huge

cheer, this is Marin Cilic 2-0 up against Lukas Lacko of Slovakia.

That match is available online. We are heading off to court number 24

Angelique Kerber. It was 6-0, 6-0 last year, but Carina Witthoft is on

the board, so lets join our commentators.

I think she will feel a whole lot better with life. Winning a game for

the first time against her compatriot, Angelique Kerber, who is

serving at the moment. Kerber with the break already in

this first set, in a big day for German sports, with their Euro 16

quarterfinal later. Plenty of action in men's and women's semifinals

today. The Germans don't know where to

turn. This is a good place to start. A good start from Angelique Kerber.

She has played two left-handers so far in this tournament, so after

playing base, getting the dimensions right, it isn't easy to have to play

a right-hander. O'Connor yes, that is the sort of

forehand which helped Kerber to her first Grand Slam title at the start

of the year. Champion at the Australian Open. Life will feel a

lot different now is a major winner. 28 years of age, so she knows her

way around the tour. Kerber, the number four seed at this year's

Wimbledon. That is the depth from Witthoft that

is important. She's got to use that for and effectively.

She has struggled a bit with her service today. 107, that is pretty

handy. Just lacking a bit of rhythm. She can't draw a lot from her

experience on grass before Wimbledon, Witthoft. Didn't win a

match in Majorca, didn't win a match in Eastbourne. Certainly growing in

confidence after the first two wins here.

One of the best neutralises, I think, on the WTA Tour, Kerber. We

will watch how she gets down nice and low to be deep balls.

They didn't hold, she is 109 in the world. She has been significantly

higher. -- that was a decent hold. And she is, Louise, one of the top

players in the world, no doubt. She came close to the final here a few

years ago when she made the Semel is -- the semis, losing to Radwanska.

Being in the Dublin -- bottom half of the draw, it is to make an impact

in the second half of the week. I'm sure they would have been excited.

She was one of the players I was watching. And also Bancic, I was

surprised she went out after such a great first round. But we tend to

think of Angelique Kerber as a late Bloomer. She was 23 when she got to

the semifinals of the US Open. That was six years ago five, coming up to

six. But she has played some terrific tennis since then.

Good death there, and it is obvious the average age of the top 100

players there is 25, 26, said that is getting up there, getting longer,

having longer careers. That is where she sometimes

struggles a bit, Kerber, generating pace, that was a really slow ball

coming from Witthoeft there, needs to use her feet.

Oh, good shot. Had to be careful there, 0-30 point. She moves so

well, Kerber, and so consistent from the back of the court. With the

power as well, very much on display there. Oh, that is not one of her

best, though. She will find us for not playing a replay of that. Wasn't

much to say about it, was there? This will be great for Witthoeft to

take one of these points here, get back to even standings would be

very, very positive for her. That is free- three first set, and

you can see her confidence rising with each game. You have two window

of Angelique Kerber if there is that bit of pressure playing another

German, someone well below his standings as well. -- his

good consistency there again from Witthoeft, she has two time that one

down the line. Go for bigger targets.

I think if there is a bit more breeze that starts to blow up, that

is where Witthoeft is going to struggle today.

She has got that one wrong. She was looking to move with her around the

court and take into and Houllier positions, but in these sorts of

conditions with the slice, got to make it work better than that.

Just looks a bit uncomfortable today, Kerber. She looked very good

and had a different game face and body language when she was playing

in the last round. She is a lot more effective when

she's playing against players who are bigger hitters, she likes it

when the ball comes through a little faster.

She has done well on those two break points. And this is what you has to

do more and more in this match, just go after that forehand, be nice and

aggressive, plunged through the corners there.

That is good play. She can keep a high percentage of first serves as

well, Witthoeft, that will really help her. Just one of two at the

moment, just 50%. Good recovery. Four points in a row

from 15-40 in the game. And Carina Witthoeft, 109 in the world, and she

is ahead for the first time. So, nice day at the moment, the sun is

out in south-west London, and the kids are on their weekend of course,

they have their activities planned. That is the lake adjacent to the

golf course by Wimbledon park. And if you snakes around the far side of

that lake and park. And then as we come back to the ground, you will

see the All-England Club, and he is caught to. This sunken court, as you

enter from those gangways you can see near the top of the stand, that

is ground level. You get a bit of a shock when you suddenly see the

court way beneath you. That was the idea when they built this relatively

new Court. They didn't want to have a lot of concrete on display from

the nearby roads, is that was one of the compromisers. It is ably good

atmosphere when it is full. Far from that at the moment. Hopefully the

signs are good for this match, in terms of competitiveness of it. The

stands will be full before too long. Kerber to serve, 3-4.

Isn't using her feed that well, Kerber. Get a little more active,

more flat. Oh, that was a chance, there was

"Down the line there. - zero 30 as well. Kerber, the fourth seed, is

under a decent amount of pressure, these are big moments. Just didn't

get down to that ball, Witthoeft, that is a big opportunity. That

shouldn't have caused the much stress on that forehand.

Oh, yes. Really good play, and Kerber is not herself out here

today. She is very conservative. Very conservative, I would like to

see his step up on the baseline more, where she can see damage. You

can see her retreating, she becomes ineffective from the baseline. Too

far back. This is a shock, Kerber is 3-1 up in

the set, remember that 6-0, 6-0 victory against this opponent last

year. I am sure she's thinking about that. She is wondering what is going

on. She should be more aggressive. Wow. Witthoeft did amazingly well to

get across to this. That is a great response to get it that deep, but

then Kerber, great wrist action to whippet cross-court.

It is going to be perhaps just a deciding factor in this match, the

serve of Witthoeft. That is better play from Kerber.

Again you just wonder what she's thinking out there, just going

through the process of who she is playing, what is happening.

Well, unfortunate timing for the double fault, and she saved for the

set, Witthoeft, gave it away somewhat.

STUDIO: So, fighting back, Angelique Kerber and still on serve. Still

some way to go, but let's see what is happening. One result, this match

from the game yesterday, and Sloane Stephens has gone through, but not

without a struggle. 8-6 in the third set, and a testing rally to end on.

That error is the end of the match, so Sloane Stephens, the aching seed,

through to face Svetlana Kuznetsova in the fourth round. And Marin Cilic

has won that Bird said, he's gone through against Lukas Lacko of

Slovakia, 6-3, 6-3, 6-4. His coach is delighted with that victory. He

will be back on Monday as well. And let's go over to court a wet Grigor

Dimitrov dropped the first set, it was 8-6 in the tie-break, but it is

on serve on the second. That is on the red button, but let's go back to

court to, Kerber serving to stay in this set.

Oh, terrific shot. Again just not looking comfortable, Kerber, and I

feel it is because of the backhand, it is not coming through that fast

from Witthoeft. And she is having to generate pace,

which is not what she usually likes to do, she likes to redirect, be a

hard counterpuncher, Kerber. The young lads are enjoying the match.

Just really looks out of sorts today, Kerber. It is rather unusual

to see. Oh, she has got lucky! Looks a

little bit like she has got an allergy to the net, because the shot

previous, she had such an opportunity to move forward and look

for the volley. That could have been so different if

that backhand had come back on her side of the court at 15-30. As it

is, we are level again. What a difference one year makes.

Oh, it is a great way to win the best rally of the match! Longest

rally at 28 strokes. Both players playing their part, but this am

Kerber was spectacular. Terrific use of the handset, she gets out quickly

and had such great control of end range.

That is what you want to do at a rally which was 28 strokes, you want

to try and get that first strike in play short point, Witthoeft has been

able to do that. What a missed opportunity there,

just didn't take one more step, just try to not let the ball drop. Just

there, just left that drop just a fraction too much.

Well, more fluctuations than the weather this sets. Kerber was ahead,

Witthoeft lead, circular set, couldn't do it, and now it is Kerber

in front, and she will have a chance to serve for 6-5.

German tennis is in a pretty healthy situation at the moment, we've got

two great players here in this match, but Peschke and others are

producing some great games, there is variation is with their game styles.

You do have good coaches, they have good work ethic and they are

certainly having a very good Federation cup team. And Annika Beck

as well. Yes, of course. In the men's, the big talent looking to

beat Youzhny, the 19-year-old, six foot six. It has been rather cloudy

in the first hour of play. Those grey clouds seem to be attracted to

Wimbledon this year, unfortunately. We have seen some umbrella is going

up in the northern side of the ground.

Oh, come on. That is it, take them down, be optimistic!

Oh, good tennis. She has to try something of course in this game. I

like this change of mentality from Witthoeft, we've seen the last two

games, she's wanted to move forwards and finish at the net, that was

better on top of the net. Well, that is both of them failing

to serve for the set. Such inconsistency means we sorted

out with a tie-break. It is interesting, you look at the

numbers for Witthoeft, she served five double faults throughout the

year, she has served 90 double fault and 27 aces, that is a big

disparity. Well, she has been rewarded for

being the aggressor here, Witthoeft. Three points against the serve so

far in this tie-break. It is just the first double fault for the match

for Kerber, just two for the tournament. Their coach looking

rather uncomfortable there. It is a shame, she got the return

she wanted, short reply. An easy error.

Well, six games out of the 12 in the set went against the serve. And if

Kerber loses this point, all six points in the tie-break. They will

have gone against the serve. Great shots, Kerber, who must have

thought she had won it with that first low forehand. Wasn't expecting

to have to play a second. Just so important for Kerber to stay up on

that baseline. Look at those legs. Very like Agnieszka Radwanska, she

was the one in trademark that shot first, but she's to lived here,

Kerber. Emotionally, she's got to get a bit more into this and just

raise her intensity. She's been a bit flat flew out. -- a bit flat

throughout. She holds on to both of those

service points. The way it's going, you feel that absolutely key, those

two service holds in the tie-break. Just gets the numbers in the court

at the right time, doesn't she, Kerber.

That's just a sign of her potential from the back of the court.

Beautiful timing on that forehand. Three more set points to come,

though. She's going to need a few more of those.

She's really making her work for it. That's three set points served by

Carina Witthoft. -- saved. And we are now back on serve in this

tie-break. Incredible. Well, I'm afraid we have to leave

this match, because we are heading over to Court Number One, Gus Novak

Djokovic is walking out there. This continues on the red button. We will

continue to keep you up-to-date. We will be moving over to BBC One very

shortly. We are heading over to Court Number One. There is

potentially a huge shock because, last night, before the rain,

defending champion Novak Djokovic was in big trouble against big

serving American Sam Querrey. 28-year-old Sam Querrey is looking

to cause the upset of the tournament, the upset of the year.

He has come to play. His concentration is not good right now.

Smart play. Sustained pressure from the American. What a pass on the

backhand side! That is fantastic set of tennis! A real shock on Court

Number One at the end of the day. An extraordinary serving performance

but so much more than that besides. That is it. Wow, Djokovic has had a

terrible time out there. Djokovic two sets down.

He looked so lacklustre yesterday. What can we expect from the world

number one? He's got to win three sets to beat this man.

Well, a huge ovation for both players. Everyone in their seats

very early for this. They don't want to miss any of it, Gus Novak

Djokovic is such a great fighter. John McEnroe said, don't worry about

what happened in his practice session, he looked like he didn't

want to be there, a lot of talking with Boris Becker. He still reckons

he can win these three sets. Lets find out what Tim and Andrew think

about this match. They are in our commentary position. So, Tim, what

about that practice session. Did you see any of it, where it didn't look

like you wanted to be there? No. Oh, sorry, we can't hear you. Oh.

Anyway, we can't get a word... I'm sure it's absolutely riveting. Could

you do some sign language, do you think? Did you think much of

Djokovic's practice? No? 5- love to Querrey. What we were

just saying was, we think that McEnroe doesn't knowing what he is

talking about. Stop getting him in trouble. I think most people here

will think that Djokovic is going to come back here, and I'm not sure.

Perhaps, if he wins the first set, it might be 50-50, but Sam Querrey

played out of his mind. If they had carried on until 20 past eight, he

could have been out of the tournament. Sam was playing that

well. Can he bridges that form again? It would be the upset of the

tournament. Djokovic is a great fighter and you never count him out

but he's got to start doing something and he's got to hope that

Querrey starts missing. Querrey was so aggressive, only losing four

points on serve in the first set. He was taking huge risks from the

baseline and making very few unforced errors. Djokovic will be

hoping that Querrey's level drops and he's got to get off to a good

start. That is stating the obvious. He needs to get momentum, he needs

to get into Querrey's bed. I really am picking Querrey. He looks like

the form horse. -- he needs to get into Querrey's head. We've got to

swap over to BBC One now. I'm so glad that we can hear you now. Both

Andrew and Tim are picking Sam Querrey in this one. That is going

to be the big story here at Wimbledon, and that match will be

live for you on BBC One. Novak Djokovic and Sam Querrey. We have

got the roof, because there is a hint of some rain in the area, so we

will be heading over to Centre Court, and Andy Murray will be there

later, so a lot more to look forward to over on BBC One.

Now some of Shirley's trademark clear direction.

Which way, which way? Oh, left.
