Just Stop Oil protesters disrupted play on day 3 at Wimbledon
Loading....
Wimbledon 2023 enters day four with Andy Murray back to headline Centre Court.
Murray faces Stefanos Tsitsipas in a mouthwatering second-round match, with the pair's history from a famous five-sets match at the 2021 US Open adding extra spice to the second-round match. That contest, which Tsitsipas won, was packed with tension and bad blood after accusations from the Briton that the Greek took bathroom breaks to gain an advantage.
Elsewhere on Thursday, defending women's champion Elena Rybakina is back in action, with the No. 3 seed scheduled to face Alizé Cornet. The drama of Wednesday surrounded the Just Stop Oil protests, with three arrests made for aggravated trespass and criminal damage, leading to SW19 heightening security as a result of the confetti and puzzle pieces scattered across Court 18 by the protesters. Follow live updates, scores and results from SW19 below.

SET! Andy Murray 6-7 Stefanos Tsitsipas
Tsitsipas only requires one set point. It’s brilliant defence from the Greek after Murray pushed him back with backhand attacks down the line. He then turns defence into attack to send Murray chasing with the lob. Murray reaches it but Tsitsipas replies again with the forehand, and finally Murray nets!
