It seems Sabalenka will play Toronto in the end. The latest results both on clay and grass maybe have changed her mind.

Ivy League's Arthur Fery is into Wimbledon semifinals. He graduated from King's College in London and Stanford in US while receiving first class training in tennis.

In moments like this, I’m just glad women’s tennis exists and that I get to be a fan.

Weird. Pegula faded in the third set against Gauff, just like Osaka against Muchová and now Cobolli facing Fery. Kind of disappointing quarterfinals.

Cobolli looked beaten from the very start of the third set. He’s not even trying anymore.

Our last hope.

After downing Fritz, Zvrv will easily beat Fery and than get a Sinner or Djokovic destroyed after their battle in semifinals. As the result, the Roland Garros winner will also win Wimbledon.

Fery is making Cobolli look like the nervy inexperienced one out there. Madness!

“This was as good as a final to me,“ Djokovic.

On the 7th day of the 7th month, the 7th seed and 7-time champion wins the longest QF in Wimbledon history.

I can't.

Unforced errors: the most infuriating thing in tennis.

Live shot of Jannik Sinner watching Djokovic and FAA run each other ragged.

😢 Mboko announces on instagram that she isn’t playing Toronto this year.

Nope. Aliassime saved all seven.

Why are they closing the roof?

Oh no, I have to get back to work. 😬 #wimbledon #osaka #muchová

Good point, she’s smoking the ball out there, something rather unusual from her.

Muchová takes the first set, but we are far from over here.

Muchova will need to find a way to neutralize Osaka’s sheer power.

“Ferytale”, ok guys.

The fight for the WTA #1 now moves to the North American hard courts. Sabalenka defends Cincy QFs and the USOpen title: 1,215 pts. She didn't play Montréal and won't play Toronto this year. Rybakina defends Canada and Cincy SFs + USOpen R4. Total: 1,020 pts. The gap between them is 407 pts.

[2] Ostapenko/Arevalo beat Siegemund/Roger-Vasselin, and Jelena went to complain that the notorious slow-serve Siegemund takes too long to put the ball back on play. It seems it's the first time someone has finally called her up on this publicly. "Everybody knows this."

Every Slam has its own annoying thing: Wimbledon: play starting at 1:30 pm with a curfew Roland Garros: no women in the night session USOpen: play starting 7pm and finishing after 1am AusOpen: Margareth Court homages.

Someone was sick in the crowd, and the Cobolli X de Miñaur match was temporarly suspended. The players calmy waited, sitting together.

This screen capture says it all. It’s perfect.

Arthur Fery has already a nickname: French Schwartzman (both have 1,75 m, or 5'9).

Loose, unforced errors from Dimitrov. Now Frey is in control. Match on his racket.

This is Grigor Dimitrov, always losing in the late rounds of a tournament.

[7] Paolini run to the Wimbledon final in 2024: Sorribes Tormo Minnen Andreescu [12] Keys (retirement) [19] Navarro (2&1) Vekić l. [31] Barbora Krejčiková Bianca beat the seed in the quarter, [26] Nosková. Keys beat [18] Kostyuk. Linda and Marta are in QFs this year.

[13] Paolini came to Wimbledon with a dismal 12-12 record this year and got bagelled 🥯 in her first set by [Q] #195 Robin Montgomery. She not only beat Montgomery (from 2-4 in the third), but also #62 Golubić, #43 Sakkari (1&2) and now [29] Eala. Next up: [12] Marta Kostyuk.

Karolína Muchová at Wimbledon: 2019 - QF 2020 - NH 2021 - QF 2022 - R1 2023 - R1 2024 - R1 2025 - R1 2026 - QF*

I had Noskova in 3 in the wreckage of my bracket. I based my pick on chicken bones and planetary alignment. 🤷‍♂️

Last year Bad Homburg finalist (Swiatek) won Wimbledon. This year Bad Homburg finalist was Naomi Osaka.

Paolini has a certain “aggressivity” that makes her, not her game, suitable to grass. It’s more a “forwardness” than aggressivity, maybe. But too many mistakes.

It seems that Andrew Castle, the retiring "polemic" BBC commentator, said during the R4 match against Sinner that Shintaro Mochizuki couldn't play "the game of tennis". The co-commentator Todd Woodbridge had to intervene, saying he was being too hard.

Hurkacz was 2 sets up against Struff when he felt his back at 5-5 in the third, just two games away from closing it. In the 4th set, having dropped one, the abdominal muscle on the right side showed up. Hubert was inconsolable in the press interview.

Never thought the usually candid Auger-Aliassime would say something this harsh: "I mark my words, the rule is a disgrace". Fokina stopped play at 15-40 to call the physio, and Félix’s view is that the player should either wait until the game is over or accept losing the points.

At a London airport, before Wimbledon quarterfinals:

Jan-Lenard Struff +34 —> #40 by reaching QFs at Wimbledon. Sinner or Mochizuki next.

Sabalenka after winning Indian Wells and Miami: Madrid QF Rome R3 Roland Garros QF Berlin QF Wimbledon R4

A first-time Wimbledon women's champion for the 9th consecutive year: Muguruza Kerber Halep Barty Rybakina Vondrousova Krejcikova Swiatek ?

Muchova is kind of unusually nervous.

Same conclusion, as always, when watching Krejčikova play: if she’s healthy, she's unbeatable. She has the shots, the power, the serve and the variation. But she's not that efficient on hard courts.

Krejčikova's playing like a Wimbledon champion again. It's going to be difficult to Muchova.

The Wimbledon crowd is clearly cheering for Jovic on Court 1.

Today, the first‑ever match between the Czechs Karolína Muchová and Barbora Krejčíková.
