    That seems overly harsh to me.

    Finally got the set won. That last game Emma gave away so many cheap points but got there in the end.

    I never watch tennis, normally not remotely interested, but this is fantastic.

    Despite my limited knowledge of the game it feels like a bit of history, win or lose. These 2 are raising the bar it seems.

    Fernandez didn't have to work at all for that hold of serve.

    Who's doing co-commentary? Is it Martina N? It's really good insight but she sounds like a muppet (and I don't mean that despairingly more as an observation even though it's aural).

    Raducanu playing well and hopefully she can win this second and do it straight sets :) I do like Fernandez's gutties though.

    That net clipping sound on every serve is starting to get on my nerves.

    Yes. I think she's doing great commentary.

    She's frustrating to watch when you want her to win. The vast majority of the points Fernández has been winning lately have been because Emma has hit it out or in the net and not because Fernández has played a winner.

    The only thing more annoying than a tennis player moaning like a pornstar is a tennis player waving their fist around after every shot

    I hope she does herself justice because she's everyone's favourite right now. It usually results in a gallant loser.

    Brits don't do winning.
