Barbora Krejcikova breaks Mirra Andreeva to lead third
Despite taking a medical timeout in the deciding set, itâs Barbora Krejcikova who breaks to lead the third! Mirra Andreeva is looking rushed and stressed. The fifth seed is in danger, but the former Wimbledon champion is close to a big win on Centre Court.

Novak Djokovic defies the âWuuusâ â but this was not the start to Wimbledon he wanted
Novak Djokovic dug deep to beat Chinaâs Yibing Wu in four sets in a âreally challengingâ first round win at Wimbledon.
It looked as if Wu, the world No 102, may have been about to drag the 39-year-old Djokovic into a deciding set when he had 0-40 on the Serbianâs serve at 3-2, but the 24-time grand slam champion saved all six break points he faced in the fourth as he held on before breaking his opponent to close out the 6-4 5-7 6-4 6-4 win in three hours and 17 minutes.

Can Stefanos Tsitsipas shine at Wimbledon?
Stefanos Tsitsipas may be a former world No 3, but the Greek has not made it past the second round of a grand slam in his last eight attempts.
Last year, the Greek retired from his first-round match against Valentin Royer with a back injury.
Tsitsipas actually handed Andy Murray his final Wimbledon defeat in singles two years ago.

A Stefanos Tsitsipas resurgence? Here's what he thinks
Stefanos Tsitsipas won his first-round match against Franceâs Hugo Gaston on Monday, winning 6-1 6-4 6-2, and said he wanted to prove a point.
âLet me start by saying that I'm missing the way I have been playing the last couple of years,â Tsitsipas said. âAnd today while I was on the court, I was thinking of the great fights that I have had previously at Wimbledon, playing some years back.
âRegardless of the result, I always felt like I was coming into this tournament with a lot of determination, with a lot of love for the grass, and always played my best that I knew at the time.â

Mirra Andreeva and Barbora Krejcikova into third set
In the battle of French Open champions on Centre Court, Barbora Krejcikova has forced the third set and has taken Mirra Andreeva to the distance.
Andreeva had done well to break back when Krejcikova, the 2024 Wimbledon champion, was serving for the set.
But the 19-year-old Andreeva has a bit of a wobble, and the reigning French Open concedes the set with a wild forehand error.
Itâs 6-4 5-7 between Andreeva and Krejcikova.

Stefanos Tsitsipas sacks father as coach: âIt will take him some time to accept itâ
Former grand slam finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas says he has sacked his father Apostolos Tsitsipas as his coach.
Tsitsipas, a runner-up at the French Open and Australian Open and a former world No 3, confirmed the split ahead of Wimbledon and said his decision was final.
The Greek star, who has fallen to 87th in the world after a difficult couple of years of form, had previously parted ways with his father only to rehire him later.
âIt will take him some time to accept it, as it did the last time we split,â Tsitsipas, 27, said ahead of Wimbledon, as reported by Clay.

Novak Djokovic v Stefanos Tsitsipas head-to-head
Novak Djokovic and Stefanos Tsitsipas have played each other on 14 occasions, but the head-to-head looks ugly for the Greek.
Djokovic has won 12 of their previous meetings, including in the final of the 2021 French Open and 2023 Australian Open.
Actually, Djokovic has beaten Tsitsipas in 11 matches in a row, including their previous match at the Paris Olympics.
Theyâve never played on grass, though.

Coco Gauff: 'I was positive, and I think that showed'
Itâs been a difficult few weeks for Coco Gauff. She suffered a third-round defeat at the French Open when she returned as defending champion. She had lost early at Wimbledon in two of the last three years. And she was in trouble today.
âIâm happy and proud of myself. Solana played a great match. It was a tug of war. She hit some great shots. Iâm happy with my serve, it held up in the tiebreaker.
âI was reminding myself, remember who you are. When she served for the match I remembered that I was a great returner as well. When I served, I was focused on being aggressive and getting a high percentage in. I was relaxed, even though I was nervous. I was positive, and I think that showed.â

Coco Gauff wins!
An ace down the T seals the deal!
That was quite the encounter. Like Iga Swiatek yesterday, Gauff looked highly unconvincing at times, but did enough to get the job done - helped by Sierra falling apart as she served for the match at 5-4.

Gauff moves in front
That lead evaporates as Sierra flies a little too close to the sun, or the lines, with two down the line strikes. 7-7.
Now Gauff wins a superb point, a lovely drop shot drawing Sierra in; the Argentine lands her reply on the baseline and Gauff plants her reply deep beyond her in the open court!
Gauff leads 8-7. She draws the error from Sierra and now has match points...
