Finally, here’s Paul MacInnes’ report of Marin Cilic’s fantastic win over Jack Draper.But otherwise, join us again tomorrow for more of the same … but different.Peace out people.Righto, that’s almost us, so let’s go around the courts one last time:Ben Shelton leads Rinky Hijikata 6-2 5-5Gaël Monfisl leads Marton Fucsovics 4-6 6-1 6-4 5-6And Daria Kasatkina has just beaten Irina-Camelia Begu 6-2 4-6 6-1Basilashvili gave it everything, but Sonego gets it done.Next for him it’s Brandon Nakashima.

Sinner is very happy as Vukic is a difficult opponent with a huge serve.He struggled to serve it out but it’s great to play on Centre and he thanks the crowd for sticking around at the end of a long day.He’s happy to finish with the roof open – conditions are very different with it closed – and he’s happy he played that “lucky” backhand that helped him win in straights.Sinner seals it with an ace, and looks far too good to lose to anyone bar the obvious.Next for him it’s Pedro Martínez.

After saving five match points, Vukic sees Sinner net and he now has break point.So he sends Sinner to the forehand corner, advancing to the net … only to be passed cross-court by an absolute beauty.I fear that may be that.Go on! Basilashvili, who I thought had had his moment beating Musetti in round one, breaks Sonego to stay in the match.We’ll now play a fourth-set breaker, while Vukic saves another match point.

…and Vukic saves two match points.The comeback starts here!There aren’t many players it’s more fun to watch than Bel Shelton – no wonder his old fella wants to coach him – but while I’m doing that, Sinner breaks Vukic and is now serving for the match…Eeee, Sonego breaks Basilashvili for 6-5 in the fourth, and is now serving for the match…I said earlier in the week that Sinner must be enjoying the Wimbledon dress code, given in Paris, Nike had him looking like Luigi.But a button-down sports shirt is still very weird gear.Vukic is making a better first of set three, trailing 2-3 on serve, and we see footage of Sinner suffering a proper Bambi on ice moment that I guess happened when I had eyes elsewhere; in comms they’re wondering if it’s affecting him.Also going on:We’ve now lost 19 seeds in the men’s competition – that is ridiculous, but also evidences just how deep the talent runs.

It’s worth noting that Sinner, Alcaraz and Djokovic still remain, and I can’t see how they’re not going to be three of the four semi-finalists, but I daresay lots in the draw will be wondering if this might be their time,Shelton takes the first set off Hijikata 6-2, and Tauson sees off Kalinskaya 6-3 7-6(10) so faces Rybakina next,Thinking back to the Draper match, I guess Cilic is one of not that many left on tour used to playing the big four – and who won a slam during their era,Which is to say that he was never going to fear Draper, and perhaps the key factor in the match was his grasp of the angles of a court,Ah, apologies to Kasatkina, who leads Begu 6-2 4-5; Monfils does indeed serve out to lead Fucsovics 2-1.

Sinner has taken the second set against Vukic and now leads 6-1 6-1; Shelton leads Hijikata 3-2 with a break; Monfils is serving for a 2-1 lead against Fucsovics; Tauson has three match points against Kalinskaya; and Basilashvili is fighting back against Sonego, winning set three to trail 2-1 and it’s now 2-2 in the fourth,It’s been a long journey, says Cilic,“Emotions are just incredible,” he says,It’s been a long journey but he never doubted, and to come back to play this level in front of this crowd is incredible, and he thanks people for their sportsmanship,He’s been really dedicated all his life, and is delighted to see his three young kids in his box – they’re one of the reasons he kept his passion and he loves them cheering him on and showing him their fists.

Oh man, what an effort from him to get to this moment,Next for Cilic, who now has the no 4 seed’s path through the draw, it’s Jaume Munar,He’ll fancy that,An amazing win for the 36-year-old Cilic, who’s battled back from dreadful injury to record what must be one of the most meaningful wins of his career,He played brilliantly today, dominating the contest then sticking in it, sending Draper chasing about while taking the centre himself – exactly how he secured the final point.

Biggup and hold tight old man.…then Cilic sends him to the corner and he can’t respond! Match point to the Serb!Oh dear.Cilic nets a simple putaway, but at 15-0 and serving to stay in the match, Draper then nets a forehand of his own and at 15-30 he’s two points from defeat…Next for him, it’s Griggzy Dimitrov.Ben Shelton, seeded 10, has begun his match against Rinky Hijikata – it’s 1-1 in the first – but hang about, yet another seed has gone!Righto, from 0-30 Draper makes 30-all … but Cilic wins the next two points for 5-4 while, on Centre, Sinner has broken Vukic in set two to lead 6-1 2-1.Ahahaha, Draper makes advantage annihilates an ace down the T, and this match is once again showing what Coach Calv told us long ago: he’s born to compete at this level.

Cilic leads 2-1 4-4,…and the second when he hangs in the rally, just – he frames another one but it loops in – he goes after the next backhand, and Cilic nets! Draper is nails,…but Draper saves the first with an ace…Oooh, at 3-4 15-all, Draper slaps a forehand into the net, and these are dangerous times … all the more so when he frames a further forehand! Cilic has two break points, and if he converts he’ll then serve for the match…Sinner secures a 6-1 first set against Vukic, and I’d not be surprised if this match finishes before Draper v Cilic,Amazing behaviour from Cilic, who fights back from 40-0 and seizes deuce with a glorious get at the net, his pick-up sending the ball across the face to break the sideline,For all the good it does him, Draper powering through advantage to seal his hold for 3-3 in the fourth.

Back on No 1, Cilic is, as you’d imagine refusing to go away.He leads 3-2 in fourth, but is on longer dictating in the same way.Meantime, Sinner has taken command against Vukic, up 4-1 in the first.He’s now at that level where it’s hard to imagine him losing to anyone other than Alcaraz – but his potential semi with Djokovic looks tasty in the extreme.On 18, Monfils has just levelled with Fucsovics at a set apiece, taking the second 6-1; Tauson leads Kalinskaya 6-3 2-1; Kasatkina leads Begu 6-2 0-1; Sonego leads Basilashvili 6-1 6-3 5-4; and Ofner leads Paul 1-6 7-5 6-4 3-4.

She made hard work of closing it out, missing match points, but it never seemed like she wouldn’t get there in the end,Next for her is the conqueror of Coco Gauff, Daria Yastremska,Oh man, another seed goes and Holmgrena 27-year-old qulifier, runs to sob with his parents,What a beautiful moment, and next for him it’s De Minaur,Well done old mate, you deserved that.

Up a mini-break at 4-2, Bouzas Maneiro nets when she shouldn’t; she’s struggling to get this won, but an error from Kenin restores her advantage at 5-3.On Centre, Sinner and Vukic are under way; the world no 1 leads 2-1, on serve.Obviously I big her up, then she’s broken back; Bouzas Maneiro, now dead to me, and Kenin, are playing a second-set tiebreak.Draper and Cilic swap holds at the start of set four and the crowd are into the match now.One of the things I most like about Draper is his composure under pressure; his certainty that he can do what it takes to win any match, and this is what we’re seeing here.

Holmgren and Machac have done what looked entirely possible several hours ago: set up a fifth-set match tiebreak.On 2, Bouzas Maneiro is serving for the match against Kenin at 6-1 5-4; she’s growing into a really fine player, the 0 and 1 hiding she gave Emma Navarro in Paris one of my favourite performances of the tournament.I think she’s made of the right stuff mentally too, and I’m interested to see how she grows from here.A second serve ace raises set point at 40-30, a shanked return secures it, and Draper is at base camp.I said earlier that, win or lose, he might well come to view this as a seminal contest in his career, and I was talking about a mental and tactical context.

But the emotional is just as important, and the backing Andy Murray got when playing at home was not just a reflection of him going deep at Wimbledon, but of the memorable evenings he gave us all when he was developing.This could be one of those for Draper.I wonder if Draper thought he’d just play his normal game and win this one – a not unresonable assumption.But in this set, what he’s done better is keep Cilic moving, making it harder for him to hit his spots, and he secures that break to lead 5-1 in the third.What colour do we reckon the colour chart calls Cilic’s hair, by the way? I’m going for Laboratory Squirrel; while I do, the man himself saves a point for a second break point with an ace.

OK, we’re back once more.Draper consolidates for 4-1 in the third; Bouzas Maneiro leads Kenin6-1 5-4 and will shortly serve for the match; Offner has just taken the third set tot lead Paul, seeded 13, 201; and Holmgren and Machac are 5-45 in the fifth.Next on Centre Court: Jannik Sinner (1) v Aleksandar Vukic.Yes he can! I don’t know how, not because he did something wonderful, but because my net dies on me again, but every journey starts with a step, and Draper is now up a break at 3-1 in the third, Cilic by two sets to love.Back with Draper, he makes 0-15 with a terrific forehand cross, soon arrives at 0-40, but Cilic quickly saves the first two break points.

Can Draper convert the third?In her post-match interview, Swiatek recalls a defeat to McNally at Roland Garros as her most painful as a junior – citing that in victory is one reason she’s a champion,She likes McNally and her family, who make you feel like you’re not rivals, so she’s glad to see her back and fit,She took confidence from how she played in Bad Homburg before coming to Wimbledon, though the courts aren’t similar, and she doesn’t mind playing a long match today as it gave her more time on Centre Court,Otherwise, back to her towel-snaffling antics, she says it’s not as much fun now everyone knows she’s doing it, but all her team have one so they’re happy,Tell you what, win or lose I bet Draper looks back at this match as an important one in his career.

It’s not often a player as good as he is takes a lesson, but that’s what this has been so far, Cilic’s experience and grasp of angles showing him what’s missing from his game,The old man holds for 1-1 in the third,
