I'd like to see Garbine win this, but I think we'll be watching two tie break sets. If someone wins them both, game over. If it goes to a third it could go on for hours and hours because both are strong on serve and neither are too strong against serve.

Who are the 2 ladies they keep showing on the TV a dark haired lady and the blonde on her left, obviously well known but I dont know them and obviously connected to Sabine Muguruza as they cheer her points.

Looked that way from the first set but oh my what a collapse. Garbine looks more aggressive and has just swept Williams aside

Are you ever right about anything?

Good call.

Those that managed to get tickets for the final must feel a little disappointed with that offering. I know I would be unless I had a large bet on the winner.

Mens Doubles on now. I thought their shirts had to be plain but one of them has wording on his Tee shirt obviously advertising.

The shirt has Centauno on the front and sleeves so obviously a company name.

Well, you can't legislate for a player to totally collapse like that in the second set. Classic aftertiming to be critical of a prediction based on logic after the event, everyone's an expert in analysis.

Federer vs Cilic tomorrow looks simple on paper, the greatest ever on his favourite surface without having dropped a set all tournament but he's against a big guy with an enormous serve, a deadly forehand and who moves better than most of his size. He lost the Queens final but has experience of winning a Slam event so he's a danger. I want Federer to win and win easily but there's every chance Cilic will make it more of a match than that.

Is it after timing to post now that I had Murguruza 2-0, BUT in a double with Federer 3-0?

Tiny stakes mind.

Federer has won the first set 6-3 against Cilic and has just broken serve in the second set for a 2-0 lead.

By the hurry that Fed seems in, I guess he wants to know who the new Doctor Who is as well.
