i am joined disappointing defeat for andy murray. for andy murray. i am joined by a former british davis cup player. andy murray saying he could have won the match in three sets. i think that was a match in three sets. i think that wasafair match in three sets. i think that was a fair point. he was a break up and he lost his serve and out of nowhere, lost three very quick games to lose that second set and then he managed to bounce back. i think that isafair managed to bounce back. i think that is a fair point and what he is trying to say, if you manage to drive home that lead, the chances of querrey coming back from 2—0 down we re querrey coming back from 2—0 down were a lot slimmer. what do you make of this hip problem. it seems to have cost him his campaign at wimbledon. has he been working himself too hard? there is no doubt the demand of a scheduled to get the world number one at the end of last year, hard work and andy murray go very well together. it is not something he has never shied away from. at the start of this tournament

if only the next two weeks proved this and paul faulkner andy murray. —— proved this simple for andy s conference, andy murray said his davis cup team—mate dan evans deserves his suspension after testing positive for cocaine. evans could eventually be banned forfour years, meaning the british number three misses out on the peak years of his career. what was looking like it was going to be the best few years of his career, he may have got himself in a position to play in the big events. he is obviously going to have a few yea rs he is obviously going to have a few years away from the game. you make your decisions. he's obviously made a really bad one. the british women's number one johanna konta went through safely today. she beat chinese taipei's hsieh su—wei in herfirst—round tie. the number six seed secured a 6—2 6—2 victory against the player who beat her at the french open in may. this is match point. safely through, the number six seed. i'm very happy to come through that, she is a tricky player, on any surface. i lost to her in a close match at the french open so why was looking

what is the matter with andy murray and roger federer? at players, i just don't murray and roger federer? both great players, ijust don't i have fallen in love with rafael nadal, years ago. i'm in love with him. it is you that wants to see his top off, isn't it? and you weren't here last year, we re it? and you weren't here last year, were you? i wasn't, it? and you weren't here last year, were you? iwasn't, iwanted it? and you weren't here last year, were you? i wasn't, i wanted to be here but i had to have open heart surgery. here but i had to have open heart surgery. that is my scarjeff brewin stick lovely. my wife has been a tremendous help, letting me do everything, showering, getting out of bed. i'm getting stronger now, and she said before the operation, we will go to wimbledon, when i'm alive and recovering in 2017, and here we are. thank you very much, you guys. we mentioned nadal, he is not the favourite, and neither is andy murray, who said he is fit to date and is expecting a second child, by the way. but he has run into a loss

andy murray loses in five sets to sam querrey. novak djokovic is also out, forced to retire during his quarter—final against tomas berdych. and kittel wins again. that's now five stage wins for the german at this year's tour de france. hello. thank you forjoining us. we're going to kick things off at wimbledon where it was a big day for big—name shocks. the world number one, andy murray, who is also the defending champion, has been knocked out at the quarter—final stage as has three—time wimbledon winner, novak djokovic. if you chuck in stan wawrinka and rafa nadal falling by the wayside as well, it means the purveyor of indian summers, roger federer, at 35—years—old, is the highest ranked player left in the draw.. austin halewood rounds up the men's quarter—finals for us. centre court crowds are used to seeing andy murray in quarter—finals. his 10th in a row this time against america's sam querrey. but after andy murray took the first set, losing the second was not in the script. the third, andy murray was too good and back in co

what can you tell is about andy murray's hep?everyone else and seeing a guy sprinting, changing direction. —— andy murray's hip. the number of drop shots that is dustin brown it is today, there was no issue. that is today, there was no issue. that is how he walks anyway, don't worry about his wok. he is moving great, so two matches, all fine so far. his next opponent, fabio borini, knocked him out on the clay in rome. what do you think about him? —— fabiola fognini. it is andy's best surface, so it is a different story from when the played on clay. but they have had some big matches in rome, but it will not be straightforward. fabio isa will not be straightforward. fabio is a shilbottle, he loves the big stage, but i think andy is in a really good place. —— fabio is a shilbottle. andy murray had to wait to get on court, and that's because the other british number 0ne, johanna konta, was locked in a three —our battle with croatia's donna vekic, one she needed all her grit and guts to get through. joe lynskey was watching for brits

but this was a day when the towels were filled with ice and andy murray's mind was sharp. pretty soon he worked out he could follow brown's tune and come up with his own versions. even better. just three sets, just one hour 36 minutes for murray to win, in a nicely natured centre court excursion. now all we needed was a quick update on that troublesome hip. yeah, it's ok. i mean, you know, i've moved well the first couple of matches, it hasn't affected me. i've been getting good practices in, you know, and ifeel good. also through to round three, british players heather watson and alijaz bedene, both with notable wins today. petra kvitova's brave comeback ended. she needed medical attention but got through three sets in defeat. wimbledon would like to see her again. as for the flying ants, encouraged into action by wednesday's heat, perhaps don't come back tomorrow — please. joe wilson, bbc news, wimbledon. newsnight is coming up on bbc two. tonight not hard, soft or medium brexit, is a reverse now looking like a possibility? join me now on bbc two. here on bbc one, it's ti

britain's andy murray has just begun his match on centre court against the american sam querry, the 24thfinals of the tournament, afterjohanna konta yesterday became the first british woman to reach the semis for nearly a0 years. it is actually 50 years since britain had a man and a woman in the wimbledon singles semifinals, that if andy murray wins today, the wait will be over. finally he is not alone in flying the flag. history was made sweeter by the presence joanna conser had just emulated, the first briton since virginia wade to reach the women's singles semifinals at wimbledon and quite possibly the first to pose for a sulphate with a chelsea pensioners. last night when i got back i got back to the royal hospital at 8pm and my phone never stopped ringing, texts, i had a message from my son to say, you have gone viral! amazing. it was an occasion i did not want to miss a once—in—a—lifetime. gratefully, i pulled it off. from her celebrations to andy murray's preparations, a quarterfinal against sam querrey, the six foot six california with a hollywood serve. he will find a way to bre

andy murray, convincing win today but still struggling, some suggest. yway and it is hard to tell if he‘s injured or not. but today the other guy gave up so he had a pretty good run and good draw so he is there. rafa nadal is losing two sets to love so he has got a great chance to love so he has got a great chance to win again. david, we will leave that they are. good to talk to you. all the iraqi government says that the city of mosul has been liberated from so—called islamic state, three years after it was first occupied by the extremists. the second largest city in iraq was where is declared its caliphate in 2014. since then, its grip on territory — seen here in red — has been gradually reduced in iraq and in syria. in the last nine months it‘s been targeted in mosul by the iraqi army, backed by us and coalition air strikes — and has lost ground street by street, but pockets of resistance from is militants are still reported within the old city, as our correspondent jonathan beale reports. thatis that is a coalition of stroke but has just that is a co

andy murray and johanna konta at both both made the last eight. ight. murray in a straight wet sets win over the world number 46. it's the tenth time in a row the defending champion has reached the quarterfinals. he will play the american sam querrey next. that was by far the best i'd hit the ball so far in the tournament. i'm pleased with that and he's not an easy guide to play, he has one of the best backhands and he can play every shot. so it is not always easy to see where you should be playing the ball, but i managed to get it done. quite a different story for a rafael nadal, he is still going and as you can see it is 12—11 to his opponent. it isa can see it is 12—11 to his opponent. it is a marathon five set match in the fourth round. these are live pictures from court one. rafael nadal has been on court for more than four and nadal has been on court for more thanfourand a nadal has been on court for more than four and a half hours. he is attempting to reach the quarterfinals. that is ongoing on bbc two right now. it has been a thriller. roge

they have gone for a full—length shot whereas the guardian picture of andy murray is andy murray lookingan looking all demure. i can see why you you pass that one over. i agree, it would be great if she was playing or if they had a picture ofjohanna konta, our actual hope of winning the women's title. again, best of luck to the wild card. she will love the fact that she is on the front page of the daily telegraph. would she? all would she rather be on it for winning a match and playing tennis, rather than being a pretty young lady? yes, you need a favourite, really, don't you? one i hope she wins tomorrow, and i hope she is on the front page on tuesday. and i will be watching andy murray very closely. the women's title is also wide open at the moment, because serena williams is pregnant, maria sharapova can't play at the moment for a variety of reasons. will it be another venus williams, you have federate, you have andy murray, you have nadal, you have djokovic tom are all playing in the men's game, and the women's game is wide open. johanna konta all the way. thank you, james and rachel

he leads 5—3 at the moment which is a very good start from andy murray. a big five set match in the fourth round on monday and andy murray is looking to capitalise on that immediately. a very good start and he will now hopefully serve out for the first set in that one. a good search —— a good start from him. he came through in straight sets in the last round. what about the rest of the action today? andy murray is on centre court on a blustery day and he will be followed by roger federer who is aiming for his eighth title here. he is taking on my last round itch. the beaten finalist. there are british high hopes. they are two sets down and taking on these seeds in the men's quarterfinal. the first two sets when 7—6— 6—4. british voices will have to be very high indeed. they are done in that match on court well. andy murray has made a very good start and he is leading against the american sam querrey. england's women are aiming for their fifth consecutive win at the cricket world cup today. they're facing new zealand in derby after their impressive win ove

been features on the famously long queue for spectators to get into wimbledon, the condition of andy murray's dodgy hip and discussion of the baby his wife has on the way. a number of injuries sustained by other players in matches, a state of the grass on court and of course the progress of oui’ court and of course the progress of our great british singles hopes, all lapped up by the aficionados but not by sceptics like josh. on tuesday not it wasn't a question of tennis featuring in the news, as instead of the news, specifically some local news bulletins, as it came up to six o'clock the british number one woman johanna konta came up to six o'clock the british number one womanjohanna konta was battling it out on centre court in her quarterfinal and it was decided to keep showing that match on bbc one instead of the scheduled use at six, and on bbc two they had abandoned their planned wimbledon coverage for unscheduled repeats, as rain meant no other matches were being played. confused 7 rain meant no other matches were being played. confused? john wilson did not understand the logic. another

but i'm sure you're wondering about andy murray. he finish with more of a swagger, i would say, than olympic. the dignified march through the entrance to expectation. but from the back of the queue to the front of the royal box, this year, wimbledon began with one unifying tension — is he fit? you never truly know until the balls hit the court. sure, he'd serve, but how would andy murray move? one thing to make the other guy scamper, but the defending champion would have to sprint as well at some point. the first set, 6—1. his opponent stopped for mid—match fist bumps. the tattooed arm belongs to sasha bublik. the young man from kazakhstan was taking it all in, and on his first centre court appearance, he forced murray to stretch himself. now, how was that injured hip? here he comes. pretty good. second set to murray, 6—4. there were two breaks

he has just andy murray serve out first round match.ing for a place in the second round. live pictures. just a few minutes away from brushing aside alexander bublik of kazakhstan. he has really enjoyed the attention and the support of the crowd against the home favourite but it does look like andy murray will be pushing on through into the second round with very little trouble at all. we have been keeping an eye on his hip, he has that hip injury that he picked up on the way into wimbledon. it has begun to trouble him a little bit towards the final stages of this first round match but hopefully a quick victory and some quick recovery afterwards will see him through into the second round with no problems. just before we pick up some of the other news and results from today, we just go back to centre court because he has a couple of match points now. you talked about that hip, you say it has been troubling him, that injury, towards the end? yeah, on the practice court earlier today we watched him knocking up earlier, moving very easily. t

i was not surprised but i was saddened seeing andy murray knocked out.injury, you think, it might not be his year —— are you? he is the son of a very strong, dominating mother. just explain... there is a real issue with women not being represented in sport, and generally. just to clarify what actually happened. he was asked a question by a journalist, who said, how do you feel, the first us player to get to the semifinals since 2009? andy murray called him out and said, hang on, you mean the first male player. the journalist still didn't quite get his point. he didn't, he looked quite confused. andy murray was pointing out the casual sexism of ignoring the achievements of women. a huge oversight. it is very important, when you're looking at the gender debate, to have male champions. it was made very clear last night that he is really taking a stand. the more we see this sort of thing, the better we will get in terms of quality in sport. looking at the story in the telegraph, people being able to make their wheels by text and e—mail? this happens elsewher

andy murray and rafael nadal picked apart their opponents with ease, whilejohanna konta came through an epic three—hour battle. but one of the favourites, petra kivitova, has been knocked out. austin halewood reports. if spectators felt shortchanged on day two centre court, they got their money's worth on wednesday when defending champion andy murray came up defending champion andy murray came up against unpredictable dustin brown and in a flash of drop shots, volleys a nd brown and in a flash of drop shots, volleys and lobs the german didn't disappoint. but the world number one then took control, taking the first set and then showing some tricks of his own. brown has upset the odds before, beating rafael nadal on centre court, but no shocks today, andy murray taking control and cruising through to the third round. once i got the break in the third set, i could see the shots he was going to play a little quicker and that allowed me to get to some of thejob that allowed me to get to some of the job volleys and come up with some passing shots. and i played well. rafael nadal hasn't mad

making his opponent scamper was all part of the plan, but andy murray would have to run too at some pointtan. alexander bublik was taking it all in. on his first centre court appearance, he certainly forced murray to stretch himself. injured hip? here he comes. second set to murray, 6—4. there were two breaks for rain in the third set. i hope that suited you. murray and bublik spent the weather delay chatting about the match, all very friendly. murray's straight sets victory ended with another dash towards the net. now, trust in the ice bath. how are you feeling? with the adrenaline and stuff, it's sort of helps, numbs some pains you might have. i moved well today. and, yeah, thought i did pretty well for the first match. white kit, clenched fist, all very familiar. very wimbledon. and tickets are still sold on the day for those who stand in line. but tradition can only operate in today's world, and in the light of current security concerns, this year the queue is protected from potential vehicle attack by a barrier of concrete. plan for any circumstance — there will always be the unexpec

centre court as i was a good bet, especially when andy murray is in town hunting yet another quarterfinale. murray faced benoit paire, playing in the second week of islam from the second time. soon, he wriggled under the skin of the defending champion. he made sure par was getting to know the centre court soil. in the first set, the two traded breaks, the closest benoit paire got to murray in the match. commentator: this is a tough time for the french player. and entertaining contest. murray put provided plenty of exercise for the vocal cords of the crowd. commentator: straight sets over benoit paire for andy murray. and thought it went well today. a couple of sloppy games in the first set, but that was by far the best i have had the ball so far in the tournament, so i am really pleased with that. he's not an easy guide to play, he's got one of the best backhand and he can play every shot, so backhand and he can play every shot, so it's not all was easy to see where you should be playing a ball, packed his current easy against him. hard to know where to look today? not from murrayfield an

no player owned centre court, but it's where andy murray learned to belong.rfinal. ten years of consistency. but from feet, through hip, to mind, we knew this wimbledon would test him. by the end of today's match, he looked empty. it started so well against sam querrey. murray broke at the first opportunity. and the first set followed, 6—3. that is a hungry performance from murray. murray was bossing the second set, too. 4—3 up with a break. and then something just went wrong. a self—inflicted error. and querrey suddenly has an opportunity. he knew it. inspired, he won three games in a row, and from nowhere he had won the second set. why not? what could murray find? well, he said there was no point in calling a trainer. in the third set tie—break, we saw sheer endeavour. murray scrambling, covering every blade to get it back. and hoping his opponent might do this... murray's set. but he could barely compete in the fourth set. his mind was urging, but his body wasn't responding. nervousness gripped the crowd, but sam querrey was getting stronger by the second.

world number one andy murray wins a titanic struggle against tabby —— fabio at wimbledon.bbc world news. it was the most anticipated meeting of the 620 leaders at hamburg, that between president trump and the man accused of trying to rig his election, president putin. after an encounter lasting two hours, the trump team claimed to have secured an agreement from russia not to interfere in the american democratic process. they cannot seem to agree on what was said. the russians claimed they had denied any such interference and donald trump had accepted that. that is not how the americans see it. jon sopel reports from hamburg. it is hard to overstate the significance of this meeting. this handshake. two men with nuclear arsenals who could blow the world to pieces. two self—proclaimed tough guys who like to win. but today at their first face—to—face meeting, they were the epitome of restraint and respect. thank you very much. president putin and i have been discussing various things and i think it is going very well. we will have a talk now. obviously, that will continue. and

andy murray has been on the practice courts. ll has the problem with the hip, did not bother him too much in the first round in his first match. some stiffness from murray as he walks to the baseline, a little bit of a grimace and dustin brown will prove a bit of a challenge than his first contender did. he says he isafun his first contender did. he says he is a fun guy to watch and i am hoping he is a fun guy to beat as well. thank you very much. and dustin brown is a good player. he beat rafa nadal a couple of years ago on centre court. england's women have been in brilliant form in their latest match at the cricket world cup against south africa. while they lost opener lauren winfield for 2h, tammy beaumont and sarah taylor piled on the runs for the hosts. both of them getting their centuries. a few moments ago, england were 334— 2. they have still got four overs to go. they could even push 400. beaumont still not out on 141. we're under three days away from one of the biggest matches in rugby union history, as the british & i

but this was a day when the towels were filled with ice and andy murray's mind was sharp. just three sets, just one hour 36 minutes for murray to win, in a nicely natured centre court excursion. now all we needed was a quick update on that troublesome hip. yeah, it's ok.

andy murray continues the defence of his wimbledon title this afternoon with a quarterfinal match on yesterday, hoping to be the first two british people and semifinals since 1977. he took the first set but responded in the second. things finally balanced on the third but andy murray has the served to go 4—2 ahead but it could end up being very important solely bit of a tight match had andy murray at the moment but the coverage continues and we will see if andy murray can do it. over on court one, action going on between marin cilic and the conqueror of rafael nadal. he had that amazing win and is now looking to make it the first player from luxembourg ever to reach a grand slam semifinal. no player has ever got this far. it is now sex— sex and the into the tie—break into the second, marin cilic serving, so another tight match going on at the moment, and for a british hopes earlier, we had the brothers from liverpool playing in the men's doubles semifinal against the number four seeds, but unfortunately it was a straight sets defeat so they are now about what it was a good showing an

andy murray looking to ta ke dropped in. andy murray looking to take control of that second set.s place in the round will stop a big result for him, the british number three safely taking his place in the third round. two brits through. and you have a concert, what a performance. extraordinary that the two british women got through. but in contrasting styles... absolutely. johanna konta, probably the match of the tournament, it was an epic battle out against the vekic of croatia. this was the rematch, the time they had faced each other previously, comes lost that one but as you can see, she came through in this match. 0ver as you can see, she came through in this match. over three sets, it was a real battle, 7—6, 10—8, she did it in that the decisive third. there we re in that the decisive third. there were some tears at matic at the net. sheer exhaustion after an epic battle out on centre court. highs of around 27 degrees, it was extremely warm out on centre court. but johanna konta, as you can imagine, certainly one of the favourites after her surge up the rankings. she will be

andy murray's yet is beaten the media.er entered the tournament for the defending champion. men many puzzled faces around here at the moment. sam querry nte exchange the first two sets. in the forums and he was moving very, very gingerly. we do know what was wrong, whether it was the problem we had at queens. he said he would be fine to go through the full two weeks, but he was not moving well. he could up a bit of a fight towards the end of the fifth sets, but lost the deciding set 6—1. sam querry, the number 2a seed, goes through to the semifinals. a disappointing end to andy murray. we will wait to hear exactly what the problem with him was. so many british acts coming into today, you have a concept winning through to the semifinals. it would have been the semifinals. it would have been the first british pair in the men's and women's singles since 1967. it wasn't to be present to the british bands who were up on murray man behind me today. the world number one was the top seed present the court, he will be at.... editor

but i'm sure you're wondering about andy murray.f the queue to the front of the royal box, this year, wimbledon began with one unifying tension — is he fit? you never truly know until the balls hit the court. sure, he'd serve, but how would andy murray move? one thing to make the other guy scamper, but the defending champion would have to sprint as well at some point. the first set, 6—1. his opponent stopped for mid—match fist bumps. the tattooed arm belongs to sasha bublik. the young man from kazakhstan was taking it all in, and on his first centre court appearance, he forced murray to stretch himself. now, how was that injured hip? here he comes. pretty good.

another hip injury for him, like andy murray. he was two sets down, 6—4, 6—3.own, 6—4, 6—3. he unfortunately had to retire. always popular with the choir, you're never quite sure what you're going to get. laura robson as well, she lost as well in straight sets to a brazilian player. a huge disappointment for british players hoping to see laura robson go through, she'd fallen to 198 in the world rankings after struggling for three years or so with fitness and injury problems. a huge disappointment for the laura robson, in fact he was knocked out of wimbledon before andy murray had even set foot on court. oh dear. not a great claim to fame. thanks for the update on the first day of wimbledon. the former chelsea and england captain john terry has joined aston villa. he was out of contract after leaving the blues at the end of last season after 22 years at stamford bridge. he won every trophy going. there was interest from other premier league clubs, west bromwich albion, stoke city and bournemouth, but he's decided to drop down to the championship with villa. the
