Hoping that my three favourite players, Gasquet, Goffin and Wawrinka will do well this year.

Yes, but Ward took him to a tie-break in the 2nd set and didn't crumble in the third.
Come on, Liam!
Broady out; beaten by Murray in straight sets
C'mon, Marcus. Do him in straight sets!

That's the spirit Madame! 
Haven't seen the result yet... has he been a "plucky Brit"

I won't tell you the result, Rog, in case you watch later but he has indeed been plucky! His is such a lovely story and he lit up the Centre Court with his smile and his attitude. For someone ranked about 770 in the world then he put up a jolly good show
Today, Centre Court at Wimbledon against Federer, tomorrow a club match in the Coventry League for Marcus!

I bet the commentators are pleased too El

It can't happen now but just imagine the commentators faces if they had to report on a match between Dolgopolov and Kudryavtsev
I'm watching federer & Evans

Wow, what a result!
All of my favourite chaps have been either beaten or have retired hurt already.
I'm supporting Jo-Wilfried Tsonga now, so he'll probably be the next one out!
Well he's up against Murray next - I see a Murray victory here, but I expect it to need more than three sets to pull off the win!
And I predict A Murray/Federer final!
^ I hope not 
today's centre court action has been very exciting!!!!
Phew!!!! What a day

Hasn't it just?!!!!!
Very worthy of a final. Everything else will seem tame by comparison.
