Watson's memorable run brought to an end

The journey to her first slam quarter-finals has had a lot of things. When she went out in the first round last year after holding match point, she experienced a "disaster" on her return to court one.

The British number four said there was always going to be a bit of drama as she withstood Kaja Juvan's late resurgence to win her breakthrough third-round match on Friday.

Seven years after she served for the same goal against Serena Williams at SW19, she entered the singles fourth round of a Slam for the first time.

Sunday's celebrations ensured that there was already an excited atmosphere as she arrived for her Centre Court match.

In their only previous meeting this season, the two men battled to a tie-break in the final set.

In her second Grand Slam main draw appearance, she took charge to temper the partisan home support.

The first set ended in half an hour with a forehand winner.

She held on to the winner after a break and then a miss gave her a break.

The elation that greeted that moment was not allowed to last long asWatson followed a double fault with an unforced error to allow the other team to hit back immediately.

After two close games, the German was able to produce the decisive blow as two double faults helped her to a 4-3 lead.

Although she was forced to serve out the match, she was able to consolidate the break after a couple of forehand winners.
