Yes I noticed that ..... he's got plenty of time to recover now:big grin:
Oh, was it his knee? From the fuss he was making - albeit belatedly - I thought it might have been a more delicate area!;)
Clarke and Norrie are second on court 14 today.

Tight but Jamie/Bruno a set up-keep it going! 2nd and 3rd very comfortable, well done!

CamJay fighting to stay in the match on their service games ... they really need to break t'others.
Inglot and Skugor lose the fourth set 2 - 6.
8 - 8 in the Clarke and Norrie match.
Yes, it is Caro & Gill sitting in the front row - just got a close-up.
9 - 9 in the Clarke and Norrie match.
I will have to go and buy a set of false nails after this!
:sofa: but at least there is no commentary;)
10 - 10 in the Clarke and Norrie match.
12-12. The Brits don't appear to be making much of an impact on their opponents' serve.
13 - 13. Just a shame one pairing has to lose.
14 - 14. Klaasen and Venus must be loving this one.
16 - 16. I can't believe Clarke and Norrie have saved six match points to get this far. This match should be shown on the BBC or Red Button and not on their website.
16 - 16. I can't believe Clarke and Norrie have saved six match points to get this far. This match should be shown on the BBC or Red Button and not on their website.
It is on the red button - I am watching it
Clarke and Norrie save a seventh match point to make it 17 - 17.
19 - 19. I don't have a HD TV or a set box, so only have the one Red Button which is 601.
I believe that there were instructions in the text in freeview whereby you could get the additional channels - my daughter did that.
I am watching on sky red button.
Just been googling for a few stats to see how close they are to record breaking.
Most games in a doubles match after the introduction of the tiebreaker: In 2007 at Wimbledon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_Wimbledon_Championships), the team of Marcelo Melo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcelo_Melo) and André Sá (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_S%C3%A1) took 102 games to defeat the team of Paul Hanley (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Hanley_(tennis)) and Kevin Ullyett (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Ullyett) 5–7, 7–6(7–4), 4–6, 7–6(9–7), 28–26.[6] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_tennis_match_records#cite_note-6)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/reception/television/Freeview/Youview_red_button_wimbledon18.html
They lose 22-20. :crying:
I've got an HD box and tried retuning, no joy.
It was such a shame that it's finally ended, as I was really enjoying it.
A fantastic effort from Jay & Cam, had to follow this match on from yesterday, they fought briliantly, shame they lost but no shame in how they played....Well Done the Young Brits!!:GBflag: ...Exciting times ahead!!!:thumbup:

Klassen/Venus take first on breaker, come on Nielsen/Salisbury! Looks tough for Inglot/Skugor-Bryan/Sock up 6-3, 5-1.
A bit squeaky but well served Joe to take second set. Big mouth Lloyd! As Joe was serving at 40-15 to take the set Lloyd said he hasn't served a double fault yet and then Joe served 2 in a row! However all is well.
