The rain has stopped and the sun is peeking through the clouds, so not only are we about to get underway on Court 1 but the outside courts are also being prepped.

It could be a tennis bonanza very shortly.

The big game today, from a British point of view, is of course Emma Raducanu taking on New Zealand qualifier Lulu Sun with a quarter-final place at stake. That’s the second match on Centre Court today after Carlos Alcaraz v Ugo Humbert first up from 1.30pm.

Raducanu has arrived at SW19 and hit the practice court, seemingly in good spirits as she brushes off the minor controversy of her withdrawal from the mixed doubles, meaning Andy Murray won’t get a swansong in that event.

It’s not heavy but the rain is still falling at Wimbledon, with no sign of play on the outside courts. But the good news is that we’re only about 20 minutes away from play getting underway beneath the roof on Court 1.

French Open finalist Jasmine Paolini and America’s Madison Keys will square off in the first match there.

The fourth round of Wimbledon gets underway on Sunday with players knowing they are just one more win away from the quarter-finals of the Championships.

It’s a special stage of the tournament as the second week begins and the contenders for the titles are narrowed down, while there is also more than prize money at stake.

Reaching the quarter-finals of the men’s and women’s singles at the All England Club earns players £375,000, as well as entry into an exclusive Wimbledon group.

Emma Raducanu, Coco Gauff and Ben Shelton are among the players bidding to reach the quarter-finals of Wimbledon and the ‘Last 8 Club’ for the first time today.

It’s looking a little brighter at Wimbledon but still no play before 12:00pm.

Emma Raducanu has played her last two matches under the roof and clearly prefers it.

Centre Court is likely to stay closed today so that’s a boost ahead of facing Lulu Sun.

A similar look to yesterday as the covers are on around the outside courts. There will be no play before 11:30am.

Wimbledon is set to be disrupted by rain and wind on Sunday as players, fans and ground staff battle the elements.

The UK’s summer has barely got off the ground and the tennis at SW19 has been affected this week by spells of rain and blustery winds.

Below-average temperatures are expected on Sunday, along with heavy rain and the potential for disruption to Wimbledon and the British Grand Prix in the afternoon.

British number two Harriet Dart was braced for a sleepless night after she squandered a huge opportunity to break new ground at Wimbledon following a heartbreaking third-round defeat to Wang Xinyu.

Dart had failed to reach the last 16 of a grand slam since her main-draw debut at the All England Club six years ago, but she negotiated windy conditions and rain delays to move 5-4 up in the second before she sent a simple smash volley into the net at deuce.

It was the closest Dart would get to a match point, with further lapses of concentration in the third set after she raced into a three-game lead bringing her fine run at the Championships to an end with a 2-6 7-5 6-3 loss to Wang.

“I mean, it was a huge opportunity today. I put myself in some situations where I was up and leading,” Dart said.

“Yeah, it was really tough. I mean, to be up in two sets and come away with a loss is pretty heartbreaking, to be honest.”
