Just realised this is on BBCi as well as Eurosport.

Tursunov has just had a medical time-out in Eastbourne to have his left ankle strapped up.
He's a set up but it's now a tie-breaker for the 2nd set.

Time I did some work - this tennis lark is too addictive by far!

Well, I had the livescore up and totally forgot what country I was in so didn't realize it'd be on telly. Some habits die hard. So my hosts put the telly on and et voila! There was my Frankie. 4-4 in the second set. Was disappointed he didn't win the tiebreak because he could have but very happy he made the final. This was only his second ATP final - the first time he was beaten by Dima as well. Was very exciting to tell my hosts and their friends that Frankie comes from my area and is a member of my tennis club.

Weird thing is I'm so used to watching most of my tennis on a computer it felt freaky seeing it on telly.

It's great watching tennis on the telly! So much better than on the wee computer screen - oh I can't wait for the next 2 weeks - roll on Monday - shame it's school sports starting at 1.30 - honestly, stupid head teacher - I'll have to emphasise how important it is that all that sort of activity is complete prior to the start of Wimbly
