Tennis LIVE: Wimbledon statement after all matches suddenly suspended

“To be honest, I was over the wildcard. Listen, I knew the wildcard wasn't coming long before.

“I know a lot of the people in tennis who have big titles in that building over there [LTA’s National Tennis Centre]. I've grown up around pubs. I can read people.

“And they don't say hello to you, and certain things... You have a fair idea, and they keep their distance. I'm not the only one, either.

“They actually helped me have a better experience than I thought I was gonna have, so it was amazing, and great fans out there, and hopefully some Brits are on that court tomorrow and qualify.”
