What a match that was. Muller was immense, Nadal good - and great in bursts - but just couldn't trouble Muller enough on his service games.

Got to hand it to Nadal, he always goes out in style! The more I see him lose to big servers on grass the more I respect his two Wimbledon wins. Grass really doesn't suit his game.

Anyone got a pick for the title? I suppose Feds is favourite but he is old, I could see him struggling in a 5 set match with Djokovic or Murray. Cilic is looking very strong indeed.

Federer will need to potentially go through Djokovic and Murray to win Wimbledon - I think Murray could retain it if he can find a bit of form.

I reckon Cilic has it on form.

Her opponent is quite attractive in a "death by Snu Snu" kind of way.

They should use the cameras and find out who it was so they can serve her with a life time ban from Wimbledon.

It would be easier to enjoy Wimbledon if I didn't hate Sue Barker and the crowd wasn't the worst in all sport.

Just watching the highlights on bbc2 what the hell is that noise Ostapenko makes when she serves? Sounds like some sort of call you hear from an animal in the amazon or something.

What is wrong with Sue Barker? If she was a female Adrian Chiles I'd say fair enough but she's not.

Probably just an irrational hatred. She just annoys me for some reason. I never got the hatred for Adrian Chiles!

Think Murray will scrape through to the semis but suffer defeat to Roger. He's just nowhere near slam winning form.

Can't see past Roger for yet another win,he's playing some terrific stuff. If not him,a comeback win for Novak.
