Yep, just hoping Cam can get this done before Medvedev wakes up. :big grin:
3rd set:1-1 on serve.
Meddy *30-0, 40-15, 40-30, 40-40 and 2 good serves see him hold for 2-1.
3rd set has all gone with serve. Cam will be serving to stay in the set at *4-5.
Will this be Meddy's chance to get back into the match?
Cam: *0-15, 0-30, 15-30, 30-30, 40-30, deuce. *40-Ad.
And there you go - Medvedev breaks Norrie to take the 3rd set 6'4.
:sad:
MeddyBear has definitely woken up! He's 3-0 up in the 4th set.
:facepalm:
Breaks Norrie again to go 4-0, and holds to love for 5-0.
Meddy takes the 4th set 6'1.
I'm only following on Livescores, in between doing some work, but it seems as though Cam has just lost whatever it was that he was playing in sets 1 & 2.
:shrug:
5th set ......
Crikey - a very long game to start the 5th set ... but Cam finally holds for 1-0 after 14mins of play.
Meddy had 4 BP chances but Cam held him off and took the game on his own 5th Ad point.
Meddy serving at *3-2 having got one crucial break of serve in the 3rd game.
Holds for 4-2
Jings!
Cam broke MeddyBear, serving for the match at *5-4, and is serving at *5-5 in the 5th set.
Cam holds for 6-5.
Meddy now has to serve to stay in the match.
:hmm:
Way to go Cameron Norrie!!!!!
:yahoo:
Breaks MeddyBear again to take the 5th set 7'5 and the match.
:thumbup:
Really did it the hard way though .....
..... another couple of games in set 3 would have been easier!
7'5, 6'3, 4'6, 1'6, 7'5
But a win is a win!
:GBflag:
:yahoo: :yahoo: Cam has beaten Medvedev. :clap: :clap:
4 Brit singles players through to second round so far. :clap: 2 more to come.
Salsibury/Skupski and Cash/Glasspool through to second round.
Sonay Kartel coming up next on Court 9.
Very windy at RG today. They are closing the roof of Philippe Chatriere.
Credit to Cam, that's a great result.

Emma playing Swiatek 3rd match on PC..
Sonay has just notched up a bagel against Erika Andreeva (big sister of Mirra).
Takes the 1st set by 6-0.
:GBflag:
Kartel has won the first set 6-0.
Jack's match will be starting soon as previous match has finished.
Fabulous for Cameron, looked like it was slipping away from him but a great flourish, well done! :swingin:Medvedev though had bit of sloppy game when serving for it. sonjay still dominating with a 3-1 lead in 2nd.
Sonay has taken the match 6-0 6-2. :clap:
Jack 1-5 in the first set.
Jack has clawed his way back into the match but Bellucci is serving for the 1st set at *5-3.
Jack had break points at *0-40 but the Italian has saved them all and now has Ad.
Back to deuce.
They are taking a long time for each point .....
Bellucci has Ad again.
Jack had Ad for another break point but saved by Bellucci.
Now deuce and Ad again for Italian.
Finally Bellucci converts and takes the 1st set 6'3.
Jack was working his way into it so hopefully he'll now motor on through the rest of the match.
Jack 3-0 up in the 2nd set, Bellucci holds for 1-3.
They're playing under a closed roof.
Now 4-1 in second set.
That's better! Jack takes the 2nd set 6-1.
And the 3rd set 6'4.
However, he's serving 2nd in the 4th set and is currently *1-2, 15-15.
Jack gets the first break in the 4th set; now serving at *3-2
:yahoo:
Jack won! That's the 6th Brit through to R2.
3'6, 6'1, 6'4, 6'2
Never happened before in the Open era.
1973 was the last year 6 brits got through.
It was a cracking Monfils match - 5 setter. Monfils will play Jack next.
First time in the Open era for 3 men and 3 women. Or at least so I read...
Comprehensive win for Swiatek over Raducanu ... 6'1, 6'2
:sad:
Fearnley/Diallo and Johnson/Arends won their R1 Mens Doubles matches.
As did Kartal/Burrage.
Dart/Birrell lost to Begu/Wickmayer.
TNT presenters/commentators were saying 1973 since 6 British players through. 52 Years ago. Also Stuart Fraser of the Times says this too.
