  1. 8-6 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Lemoine quickly sets up three match points to knock Robson out of the tournament. Robson saves the first with a length forehand return of serve that Lemoine can only hit into the net. But an ace on the second match point wraps up the win and ROBSON IS OUT OF THE GIRLS SINGLES despite her battling play

  2. 7-6 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Lemoine steps her play up another level and breaks to love when Robson hits long. The Dutch player will have a second chance to serve it out

  3. 6-6 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Lemoine does well to hold to 30 when Robson's forehand down the line drifts just wide, despite intense pressure from the Brit. No tie-break in the final set remember so on we go

  4. 5-6 - LEMOINE-ROBSON! Robson holds to leave Lemoine preparing to hold to stay in it! The 15-year-old races out to a 40-15 lead before Lemoine pegs her back to deuce. But the Dutch player hits a forehand long and Robson has the hold

  5. 5-5 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: ROBSON BREAKS BACK! Brilliant fighting spirit from Robson as she breaks back to get things on level terms with a forehand return of serve winner

  6. 5-4 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: All credit to Robson as she saves three match points before holding to force Lemoine to serve it out. There is an air of inevitability about things as Murray slips to 0-40 but the Brit does brilliantly well to recover with an ace followed by two Lemoine errors and Robson is still in this match!

  7. 5-3 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson will have to serve to stay in the match as Lemoine races through a service hold to cement the break

  8. 4-3 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Another break point hands Lemoine three break points - Robson saves the first with an ace but a forehand down the line that lands just wide on the second hands Lemoine the break that could end this match and Robson is clearly in a lot of pain once again as she hobbles back to the chair for the change of ends clutching her back

  9. 3-3 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson has two break points but cannot take advantage of either of them - the first goes begging when the Brit hits a forehand into the net while Lemoine saves the second with a forehand winner. Robson is clutching at her back once again - that pain-killer she took towards the end of the first set appears to be wearing off

  10. 2-3 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson battles through another service hold to keep her nose just in front. She had to save break points again though as her double fault count reaches 11

  11. 2-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Another service hold from Lemoine keeps things level in this third set

  12. 1-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson does well to hold despite facing break points. But she saves them with a couple of first serves and a forehand winner before wrapping up the hold when Lemoine hits into the net

  13. 1-1 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson breaks back. The 15-year-old is unflinchingly positive and she breaks back to level up with another yell of "yes" when Lemoine hits a forehand just long

  14. 1-0 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson looked to be cruising early in the opening game of the third set but all of a sudden finds herself facing a break point. She saves the first but can do nothing with the second and concedes serve by slapping a forehand long

  15. 4-6 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Another yell from Robson (it's "yes" this time, by the way) as a she concludes a poor game from Lemoine with a blistering cross court forehand return of serve that SEALS THE SECOND SET and forces the decider

  16. 4-5 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: A feisty yell of "come on" from Robson (has she been talking to Lleyton Hewitt?!) as she holds when Lemoine drags a cross court forehand just wide. Lemoine will have to serve to stay in the set after the chance of ends

  17. 4-4 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: A small chance for Robson against the Lemoine serve but the Dutch player does well to recover from 15-30 and hold once again

  18. 3-4 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson races through a service hold to love and her forehand winner down the line, one of her favourite shots, is coming off more and more frequently now

  19. 3-3 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Another comfortable hold to 15 from Lemoine to stick with Robson, who appears to be in a little less pain now that she was before. Maybe the pain-killer kicking in or maybe the back loosening up a little

  20. 2-3 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson is clearly in pain on the serve and her eight double faults (twice as many as her opponent) show just how much she is struggling with that movenent. But the Brit saves two break points, with an ace and a forehand winner, to remain just in front

  21. 2-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Lemoine races through another service game to stay in touch with Robson in this second set

  22. 1-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson holds to stay ahead in this second set. Bizarrely one of line judges marched up to the referee during that game, having maybe overheard something Robson has said or something similar. But the umpire obviously didn't think it was worth anything as she didn't give Robson a warning at the time nor did she say anything at the change of ends

  23. 1-1 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Two break points go begging for Robson as she fails to find the court on both of them and Lemoine goes on to hold, after another Robson error

  24. 0-1 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: A cross court forehand wide from Lemoine allows Robson to hold from deuce for the opening game of the second set

  25. 6-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Lemoine takes the first set at her third attempt when Robson hit into the net and it remains to be seen how long the Brit will continue with this match after receiving yet more attention to her back at the change of ends before that game

  26. 5-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: The Dutchwoman grabs another break of serve. Robson saved a first break point with some great play that saw he come into the net before firing away a forehand winner but a forehand down the line that lands wide gifted Lemoine the break at the second attempt and she will serve for the set after the chance of ends

  27. 4-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson received more treatment during the change of ends but she still looks to be in trouble and visibly pulls up after a backhand as Lemoine holds to stop the run of games against her and maintain her one break lead

  28. 3-2 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: A mixed game from Robson, who fires down both a double fault and an ace. But the Brit holds and to reduce the deficit to just the one break. She was rubbing her back worringly between points though and she is clearly struggling

  29. 3-1 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson breaks back when Lemoine slaps a forehand long and there was nothing too much in that game to suggest Robson was in real pain. But the serve will be the moment of truth for the 15-year-old as that will test the back more severely that when she is returning

  30. 3-0 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: The injury timeout over and Robson looks set to continue, at least for now. But she already trails 3-0 in this opening set

  31. 3-0 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Sure enough Robson looks in some discomfort at the change of ends. She has called for the trainer and will receive a injury timeout before the match continues

  32. 3-0 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Robson is broken once again slapping a forehand into the net to concede her serve at the first attempt. There might be a problem though as Robson was clutching at her back after each serve in that last game

  33. 2-0 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: The Dutchwoman holds with ease to consolidate the early break in this match and Robson looks all over the place at the moment

  34. 1-0 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Another nervy start from Robson, which is much the same as her last two matches. This time though Robson drops the opening game on her serve

  35. 13:42 - LEMOINE-ROBSON: Just about to get underway out on Court 18, British second seed Laura Robson faces unseeded Quirine Lemoine

  36. 12:02 - Hello and welcome to another action packed day at SW19. Have we got a treat for you today?! It's men's quarter-finals day and you can look forward to some cracking matches in what continues to be sensational weather

  37. Karlovic I. - Federer R.

  38. Murray A. - Ferrero J.

    From stefi grafs ex, on Tue 30 Jun 6:39PM

  2. Laura Robson is British now. And anyway if she was an­ aussie , that would mean that she was probably from­ British parentage.

  6. I consider it a big mistake to let matches go on so­ late using the canopy. I was distressed to call on a­ neighbour at 9.30p.m. and see how utterly exhausted­ Murray and his opponent looked - it could not have been­ good for them, and if I had been the mother of one of­ them I would have wept.

    From SHEILA, on Tue 30 Jun 3:59PM

  7. Oudan was defeated in straight sets/ not surprising/­ she's talented but too young and not enough­ experience/ give her time and we may see a new champ!

    From cochino, on Mon 29 Jun 5:49PM

  16. All of the Serbian players pull out of matches that­­ they can't win with injuries because they do not­­ know how to lose without insulting their opponents.­ She­ (Ivanovic) didn't even look injured until she­ started getting­ beaten badly. Very classless. The same­ thing happened­ with Roddick vs Djokovic last year.­ Jankovic does the­ same thing. Either its a ridiculous­ coincidence that­ all the Serbian players happen to get­ injured or sick­ more often than all of the other­ players in the world, or I'm­ right about them.­ I'm gonna go with the latter. ­ It's a shame­ because the Serbian players of this­ era are very good­ players, I just hope that they grow­ up and show some­ class.
