Jannik Sinner survives Miomir Kecmanovic and a bloody stump. Went 5 sets, lost a toenail, had a couple of falls -- and stressed the hell out of everyone watching. A full day's work for the top seed. #Wimbledon

Kecmanovic was never a good first round to get on a surface that rewards great hands and natural talent… 6-4 vs Sinner. Watched a bit of his practice this morning and didn’t feel the FH was firing that much and, well, it’s confirmed. Having to dig in the first round already… Interesting.

Seriously BBC how can you not allow us to see the important point in the Djokovic match! 😡 #wimbledon

Interesting to see Jaime Murray join the Wimbledon punditry team. He’s obviously very expert, but at the moment has the terrified look of the work experience kid shoved in front of the camera. I’m sure he’ll settle into it though. #wimbledon

So the BBC is now fucking up it's own coverage with trailers and titles for its own coverage at a crucial set point. Madness. #WuChin #Wimbledon #Djokovic

Work took it outta me today so gonna pass out on the sofa with #Wimbledon and just relax
