Yes, it had all the signs of a 5 setter!
Just about to settle down for the Ferrer/Dolgopalov match.
Dolgopalov to win!
And after being umpteen breaks down, Dolgopolov takes the first set on a tie-breaker.
Ferrer was 5-3 (first set) last time i looked!
Could be anther shock here...
It will be the first time since Sam Smith and Tim Henman made the same stage in 1998 that there has been British interest in both the men's and women's singles at the start of the second week of Wimbledon
Ferrer was twice serving for the second set and both times Dolgopolov broke his service and brought them to a tie-break, but this time he couldn't pull things around and the tie-breaker and 2nd set went to Ferrer.
1 set all
Ferrer serves first in the 3rd set....
....and Dolgopolov has an immediate break!
1 - 0 Dolgopolov, 3rd set
And Dolgopolov holds
2 - 0 Dolgopolov, 3rd set

Dolgopolov to serve first in the fifth and deciding set.
Novac is a GOD.
Novac is a GOD.
These commentators are very annoying, they're going on as if Ferrer was on the same level as Djokovic.
I watched Puig vs Soler-Espinoza on the BBC website earlier:
6-2 5-7 6-4
Monica Puig powered her way to the win but it was a much harder match than her shock victory against Errani on Monday. Still, sheâs into R3 at her first Wimbledon â having also made R3 at her first French open just a few weeks ago.
As darkness descended over Wimbledon on Friday evening and play was suspended Puig closed 4-6 1-2 and in serious trouble against Czech doubles specialist Eva Birnerova - a player ranked well outside the top 100 in singles.
Puig resumed on Saturday afternoon and seemingly launched a desicive comeback:
Monica Puigâ
@MonicaAce93<small class="time">3h</small>Won my match 4-6 6-3 6-4! So happy to be in the 4th round and the second week of
@Wimbledon !!!#PicaPower
So the last 16 at Wimbldon awaits and maybe a debut appearance on a "show court".
Dolgopolov to serve first in the fifth and deciding set.
It looks like Ferrer had too much for Dolgopolov and ran away with it in the 4th and 5th sets.
Juan Martin del Potro looks strong and hasn't dropped a set yet.
Dolgopolov to serve first in the fifth and deciding set.
It looks like Ferrer had too much for Dolgopolov and ran away with it in the 4th and 5th sets.
I think it was actually down to a lack of polish and finesse on Dolgopolov's part.
Wimbledon R16 today!
Robson v Kanepi - No.1 Court 13.00
Murray v Youzhny - Centre Court 14.30
I'm at work so will be following via the BBC site and this thread!
Although Laura Robson has a slightly higher world ranking (38) than her opponent Kaia Kanepi (46), Kanepi's real ranking is considerably better. She was out of action for many months last year and the beginning of this year missing last year's Wimbledon & US Open, and this year's Australian Open. She has got to 3 Grand Slam finals in the previous 2 years and would normally have been one of the seeded players.
Ferrer v Dodig now.
It started off looking like a stroll for Ferrer, but Dodig seems to have stepped it up and hasn't dropped a game despite one of his service games going to 5 deuces - he then served 2 aces. So it's gone to a tie-break.
Dodig gets 2 mini- breaks, then Ferrer gets one back, but Dodig breaks again and now Dodig is serving for the set.
And he takes it without too much trouble.
