Federer's really on the ropes!

You do know we already have a dedicated Tennis thread?

Fully aware, thanks.

This is Olympics. It's its own thread.

So should I create 302 "Olympic" threads now?

Wow!  Could be a shock on the cards here.  Not heard of Falla before.  Ranked 51st in the world.

Just turned it on now, could be a great ending.

Murray brothers are playing now too.

Didn't realise you were that interested in the Olympics!

Don't bother starting, it's not worth the effort.

One for each event is fine - there's no point arguing.

If you don't like it don't read the thread.

Federer breaks!

Like how the all white kit rules have been relaxed and the players are wearing their national colours.

Falla's serve broken.

Could be Fed's, this.

Same position as last set, this.

Who's to say Falla won't win 3 games in a row again though?!

Yeah....it's my passion. Life or death to be honest. If I don't watch any event I cry for 2 days straight.

Me too, love the contrast against the grass.

Three match points to Fed.

3 match points... again.

Quality header by the way, Fed

Murray a set and a break up on Wawrinka at Wimbledon.

The future of British women's tennis, Laura Robson and Heather Watson both won their first round matches today. Robson beat world no.23 Lucie Safarova 7-6, 6-4, the highest ranking opponent she has beaten in her career so far and Watson defeated Spain's Silvia Soler Espinosa 6-2, 6-2. Great effort by the both of them!

Andy Murray has beaten Jarkko Nieminen in the men's singles second round two sets to nil, 6-2 6-4.

Tsonga's game at 17-16 on serve in the final set!

Tsonga's game at 17-16 on serve in the final set!

It's still going, 21 games all, final set!

Score 24-23 to Tsonga who has three match points on Raonic's serve.

What a final point, Tsonga slipped on the baseline but managed to recover and win the point and the match!  Tsonga wins 25-23!  Longest match ever in Olympic tennis.

As sad as it is to see another Brit go out in Watson, at least Kirilenko is through!

Murray flying the flag once again on his own.
