Murray* 7-6 6-4 1-2 Paire (*denotes next server)
A bizarre moment as Murray attempts to challenge a Paire serve in the opening point of the game but the umpire doesn't let him. Murray approaches the umpire's chair to protest but to no avail and Paire goes on to hold comfortably.

Murray sees three break points come and go as Paire recovers from 0-40 down to hold.
Nadal drops opening set against Muller
Rafael Nadal is a set down to Gilles Muller on Court One (6-3). The second set is currently going with serve at two games all.
Meanwhile, Sam Querrey and Kevin Anderson are into a fifth set on Court 18, and Tomas Berdych leads Dominic Thiem by a set to love.

Nadal 3-6 4-6 2-1 Muller* (*denotes next server)
Did anybody think Nadal would check out after going two sets down? Me neither. His body language is superb. A fist pump and a huge "vamos!" follow a routine service game for Rafa as he holds for a 2-1 lead in this third set.

Grigor Dimitrov defends a break point in his opening service game against Roger Federer before going on to hold.
