Summary
The day after the pre-tournament favourite Petra Kvitova went out of Wimbledon she was followed onto the sidelines by her compatriot Karolina Pliskova.
That means The Tennis Podcast team’s two picks for the women's title are not going to win the event, and so our predictions lie in tatters …
Was Pliskova losing really that big a shock? What does that mean for Jo Konta? Is she, as some bookmakers have suggested, now the clear favourite for title? It’s a question that led to BBC Radio 5 Live colleagues and Tennis Podcast presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law having a massive argument on the show.
All other significant day 4 results are covered, including straightforward wins for Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
And finally, we wish Bethanie Mattek Sands a quick recovery after her awful fall at Wimbledon yesterday.
The Tennis Podcast is a downloadable tennis radio show which is produced in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport. A new Tennis Podcast will be out after play every night during Wimbledon.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
