I've just read that Jo Durie retired from commentating after the Iga match Sad.
I hope she did 'retire' I like Jo.

Oh what’s going on there? 👀

Only watched since the last game of the 3rd set but the momentum in this 4th set is ebbing and flowing.

TemporarilyCantDoMyself · 04/07/2026 21:22

5 sets. Yeeees! 🤩

JaneJeffer · 04/07/2026 21:22

On we go

It does seem a bit odd that she's not doing any more matches during the fortnight. That's it. Makes you wonder.

Forza Matteo!

IceandIndigo · 04/07/2026 21:23

Wow, no idea who’s taking this now.

Raahh · 04/07/2026 21:24

I love Matteo- but I did not see this turnaround at the start.

I think the roof had a big effect.

DS said about Jo. Apparently, someone asked her why and she said she needed a rest and a new kidney!

Raahh · 04/07/2026 21:26

Meanwhile , Bublik is ahead in his match- come on Sasha!

I will miss Jo- knows her stuff, and I always felt she held her own for a long time against being pushed out for a 'younger' presenter.

That’s a shame about Jo D - I always enjoyed her commentary - it’s weird that she’s going mid way through the tournament

I’m still not sure how this match is going to go - I thought Matteo had the momentum but not sure now - not sure that I could cope with a 10 point tiebreak

I would hate this to go to a 10 point tie break Sad
I said earlier, I would have preferred a 4 set win, one way or another.

Eek!

IceandIndigo · 04/07/2026 21:43

Grigor seems locked in now.

ChessieFL · 04/07/2026 21:48

I think Matteo will struggle to come back now.

But I said that earlier about Arthur so what do I know.

I know what you mean - I am useless at predictions Grin

And Grigor has won.

Well done Grigor. Sad for Matteo though.

Now he is through though I hope Grigor wins the whole thing.

IceandIndigo · 04/07/2026 21:57

Well done Grigor. Great match.

Hard luck Matteo.

TemporarilyCantDoMyself · 04/07/2026 21:58

Ah well done Grigor. 👏
Huge kudos to Matteo, great fight.

Fizzywinegum · 04/07/2026 21:58

OMG Grigor - I predict tears in the on court interview
