    * knows, it's possible. Cilic has a patchy record against the top players but he looks up for it at the moment. Could have wavered in the middle of the second set after getting in a huff with the umpire and getting broken, but quickly broke Nadal twice in a row to take back control. Think it will go five either way.

    Nadal's leg playing up. 4th set in the bag for Cilic by the looks.

    So that's Djokovic, Nadal and Murray whose careers are practically over because of injury.

    Such a disappointing end. Hope Cilic goes on to win it.

    Shame for Nadal. The baseline style of play clearly takes a huge toll on your body. It wouldn't surprise me to see it used less in the future.

    Everyone in Ireland is, such is the lack of talent available.

    Great match between Kerber and Halep, felt like a de-facto final as Halep should be able to smash Wozniacki.

    Cilic looking good against Edmund, two sets up.

    Would mind either of them crushing me with their thighs.
