Iga Swiatek resumes her Wimbledon title defence as she headlines Centre Court on day four of this year’s Championships.
The Pole was unconvincing as she battled through a three-set tussle against Taylor Townsend in the first round, and her draw gets no easier as she faces 2021 runner-up Karolina Pliskova first up on the main show court.
Pliskova’s counterpart as 2021 finalist on the men’s side, Matteo Berrettini, is next up on Centre as he faces 20th seed Arthur Fils, who returns to grand slam action after a lengthy injury layoff.
The first Brit to make it through the first round, Katie Swan, plays former Australian Open champion and 26th seed Madison Keys first on Court 1, with Alexander Zverev, Jakub Mensik and Grigor Dimitrov all in action later on.
As well as Swan, Brits Jan Choinski, Jacob Fearnley and Arthur Fery begin their second-round singles matches, while there are plenty more getting their doubles campaigns underway, including partners Katie Boulter and Heather Watson, who have been granted a wildcard.
Here’s the order of play on day four and the tournament schedule
