Well that's 5 world class points there. Not much she can do about that.

Absolute nightmare, curtains.
Ever bigger blow that was 40-0 up there and went on to lose 5 points in a row.

Watson's anticipation is something incredible. Every time it's a 50/50 choice for Serena, she's guessing right.

Marin Cilic and John Isner could have a long battle ahead of them.

2 tiebreaks already...

She's still fighting. Can definitely see her breaking again it's just holding her own serve that's going to be the problem.

And Serena's screeching is getting ridiculous

Massive hold. Hi Serena... your serve... remember how good you've been on them today?

Watson got her serves in during that game. Serena returned deep. Fair play.

Feeling a 7-5 set here.

Grinding out the win here just shows what a champion Serena is. Heartbreaking for Watson but she's done herself proud.

Unbelievable performance, what a cracking effort. Won a lot of fans today I think.

When tennis is as high quality and attritional as Watson vs Williams it really is compulsive viewing. Hope this is Heather's coming of age.

What an effort Heather Watson, you cannot do more than that. Now she must build on this.

Serena though, what a competitor.

That was incredible. What a game of tennis.

Watson has just a lot of people over there.

Played like a champion I guess but Watson must take great confidence from this...

Watson didn't choke that, it was just pure Serena grit.
Echo this. Right to the end she kept up the quality tennis. She didn't throw that away with unforced errors, it was sheer brilliance from an incredible champion, as we've come to expect.

Talk of top 20 is too low. She can go top 10 or even better on that evidence

Long term gains.
Fuck British tennis, Watson nearly caused serious damage to my dream team there.

Priorities.

A guid dram
Unlucky Watson she almost did it against the beastmonster. Just not quite enough but she has looked the beast in the eyes and hasn't been found wanting. Thus could be the match that makes her career in the long run.

Cilic v Isner was always going to go the distance. Is it going to be another of those matches that goes on and on...
