Tim Henman is at the side of the court for Amazon Prime and is asked about his memories of his debut grand slam quarter-final: “There’s nervous excitement that goes with it … you’ve got to embrace those nerves, think about your footwork early on … you’ve got to control the controllables … When we reflect on how well she’s playing and how well she is striking the ball … I’m quietly confident on the side of the court here.”

The players are out on the court. Raducanu comes out first and looks relaxed as she smiles and waves to the fans. There aren’t many people in Arthur Ashe Stadium right now but it will surely fill up.
