Both Shapo and Nakashima are playing some fine tennis here in set 4.
Edit: At worse, Denis will be playing a 4th set tie-break.

There really isn't much to say about the Shapo match. It's not as much the result but the way he continues to lose matches. It's a real headscratcher how he continues to play like a 19 year old rookie on tour and refuses to download and adjust during a match.

Iga now has won 37 consecutive matches (needed to go three sets today though).

That's terrible. Winning this match today was like winning two matches. Nakashima will steamroll Galan

He's such a frustrating player. You have no idea what to expect from him from set to set.

What's Wimbledon excuse for not using electronic line calling but allowing challenges? That's makes no sense nowadays.
At the French Open, their excuse is because it's not accurate on clay and because they're french.

And the whole not accurate on clay is just a myth these days, it's just become ingrained to where most people believe it to be true. As for Wimbledon not using it, that's a good question Girly especially with COVID still circulating around the AELTC.

6-6 in the 4th set tie-break, you have an easy ball midcourt and you blast a forehand three feet long. That's unacceptable.

B- grade for Rafa today, needs to improve of he won't make round 4. Happy with the win, but for me it looks like his forehand isn't as devastating on grass as it is on clay or hard court. I think he was a little tentative with it today kept missing early.

I know Nadal is Nadal but how is Kyrgios/Tsitsipas not on Center Court tomorrow?

For the 2nd time in a row, Iga will be on Court 1 tomorrow as well. Not sure who's making these decisions
