“It’s probably been more of a negative experience [in the past] because I’ve not felt like I’ve been able to express myself,” he said. Certainly he produced his best tennis in the third set, as he dug deeper, challenged more savvily and conjured a couple of break points. There were some successful moments when he was able to draw De Minaur into the net and, facing two break points in the third game of the second set, he summoned up three aces to hold his serve. Arguably his best chance of levelling the field came towards the end of the second set, when he was the beneficiary of a seemingly unreachable net cord at 0-30 up. “I probably end up getting into the rhythm of it once I was a break down in the third.

WIMBLEDON caused controversy when they scheduled home favourite Katie Boulter on Court 2, where she lost in 51 minutes.
And De Minaur said of his girlfriend: "I think not many people know how strong she is, as a human being, as a character, how she's been able to deal with a lot in her young career.
