Jamie's bad day continued as he and Bethanie lost. Neil Skupski and partner made it through to the semis though.

British interest over as Skupski and Martinez Sanchez lose their semi final 6-0 6-4.

Disappointing dor Skupski /Martinez sanchez however was not the best of starts and could not recover.

I'm watching the mixed final. Treating myself as the AO will soon be all over! But I'm really intrigued with the Australian wild cards, Sharma and Smith, esp Astra Sharma. Apparently she is a qualified medical doctor and aspires to be a surgeon one day. Although they defeated Jamie and Bethanie I would quite like to see Sharma/Smith win. They've just lost the first set on a TB!

Edit: Winners are Krejcikova/Ram. Ram's first slam.

I was impressed by the Aussies too. And that was Sharma's FIRST GS too - getting to the final is awesome! And I loved her Nike black and white dress.
