Konta got thru with only dropping 4 games against girl who beat her at the french

wonder what the odds of a Konta Murray winning both singles

An injured no 3 Stan Wawrinka has been beaten in the first round.

Heather Watson won her match today

whether that makes it easier for Murray or not I don't know but possibly he could meet Nadal or Federer earlier than expected I guess

Together, it's currently 77/1 for a double on Bet365. That's the site I use.

Single bets are currently Murray 5/1 and Konta 12/1.

It makes no difference. If they get that far Murray would play Nadal in the semi-final, and either Federer or Djokovic in the final.

Nadal looked in ominous form again today.
Another back to the future final between Roger and Rafa looks a real possibility imo if they both maintain their 2017 form.

Don't put any money on Djokovic. He's come into the tournament injured and will struggle to complete his 1st round match

^ It was Djokovic's opponent who struggled with injury and retired in the second set.

Federer also had easy passage to the next round as his opponent also retired in the second set.

Lot of booing from the centre court crowd after 2nd retirement, not surprised as those seats aren't cheap!

should the rule changes the ATP has brought in towards this now be brought into Grand Slams?
