    Three-time Grand Slam winner Stan Wawrinka, speaking on Court One after playing his final Wimbledon match: "I don't want to retire, but I know it is time for me to stop playing. One of the reasons I've kept playing for such a long time is to enjoy the moments like tonight. There were so many emotions.

    "I'm so grateful to have this opportunity, to receive the wildcard, to have the chance to play one last time at Wimbledon. It is such a special tournament. As a kid, you always dream about maybe being here one day and I had the chance to play here so many times. That kind of support also meant so much to me, so thank you so much for all of these years."

    On his 19th time playing in the main draw: "Yes, it wasn't my first time playing here. I pushed it to my own limit tonight. It was a great fight against Matteo [Berrettini], who is a good friend, a great guy. He deserved to win, so congratulations to him.

    "It is never easy to say goodbye to something you love so much. I've always been passionate about the game. I'm really grateful for having the chance to play one last time here, I couldn't have dreamed of a better goodbye so thank you so much for the support."

    What a contest!

    Stan Wawrinka and Matteo Berrettini shared a warm embrace at the net at the end of their titanic battle featuring four dramatic tie-breaks over the past four-and-a-half hours.

    Berrettini points his racquet in the direction of his good friend Wawrinka, encouraging more cheers for the Swiss at the end of his final Wimbledon appearance.

    "I don't want to retire, but I know it's time," Wawrinka tells the crowd, adding it is nights like this which will make him miss the sport so much.

    Berrettini then takes over interview duties and calls Wawrinka "a legend", having taken a moment to share a brief word with the three-time major winner before he exited the stage - and rushing off court to give Wawrinka his Wimbledon towel.

    Maya Joint, speaking about her poor results before Wimbledon: "My last couple of matches have been pretty good, I think I have been playing competitively in them.

    "Even though I haven't won many matches this year, I still had the belief that I could win and I just took advantage of the moment and enjoyed it. I didn't think about the previous matches I'd played."

    On her box: "They pull me through everything. The box is full. Thank you for coming and sticking with me the whole time. Thank you for everything."

    Maya Joint, speaking after her victory over Serena Williams: "I really don't know what to say right now. I don't know what just happened, to be honest.

    "I didn't get much sleep last night, I was up until 2am just thinking about it. Walking out, I forgot the warm-up, I don't know what happened. My legs weren't moving. I really don't know how I got a pretty good start in the match.

    "She [Serena Williams] has so much aura, she is such a legend. This court has had so many huge names that have played in it. I have been dreaming about this since I was a little kid so this is pretty crazy.

    "I think the toughest part was just trying to come out on court and play a match against her. The start was nerve-wracking. Trying to finish out the match as well, I think she definitely lifted her level. She played some great tennis there."

    They were on court for four hours and 20 minutes.

    Wawrinka won the other three Grand Slams singles titles but he was never quite able to produce his very best at SW19, with two quarter-finals his best ever runs.

    Berrettini gives Wawrinka a hug at the net and then asks the crowd to give his Swiss opponent a huge ovation.

    You have to give Maya Joint all sorts of credit, coming in on such a great losing streak and beating the greatest of all-time on Centre Court. She has never played on this court either.

    She had a match point in the second set but she was able to regroup in the third set.

    Serena Williams was incredible still. She won seven majors before Maya Joint was even born, so it was incredible of her to put herself out there.

    We just have to celebrate Joint right now.
