Well this is a new one. Play halted at the most pivotal moment of the match so a local bird could have its dinner. You have to see it to believe it. Follow all the tennis (and seagull action) from day 9 live -

Danil Medvedev had a scare in his fourth round clash with Maxime Cressy but the world No 2 seemed to be more peeved with the fact he’d been booted to a lesser court for the second consecutive match.

“What should I do to play on centre courts in Grand Slams, because I won the last Grand Slam. I mean, I’m highest seed here, and to play against Maxime would be easier on Rod Laver. Medvedev was involved in some heated exchanges with the chair umpire and by his own admission lowered himself to trash talking his opponent.“I was quite mad today because of a few things. I’m working on myself, that’s why I managed to win and still kept my composure, as much as I could, because sometimes I go much crazier than I did today,” Medvedev said.

The unseeded Kanepi, 36, made it to last eight in Melbourne for the first time, a stage she has reached at every other major over a Grand Slam career dating back to 2006. “Actually I thought I was going to lose after the match points I had on my serve were saved. I don’t know how I won.
