Date Krumm gave a great effort. Did make a few errors on big points, but Venus' serve was brilliant the whole way through the second and third sets - very hard to get into those games.
Props to 19 year old Heather Watson too - injured her right elbow at 2-3 in the second set but kept going (despite her serve and forehand being much weaker due to the pain) to the end (2-6 6-4 6-4). Showed mental strength that will serve her well in coming back from a break down in the decider and then saving three match points too. Hope she keeps up her good work on the tour.
Murray's having his usual mid-match crisis in the second set against Kamke. Surprised Wawrinka's on the brink of defeat to Bolelli - thought he'd make the third/fourth round!
