The central court, the kingdom of Roger Federer, dominates Court 14. The king came out of his palace this morning and is preparing to a shot at one of his outdoor lawns. Hundreds of fans watch the Swiss training regime. He will be on the central court in a few hours. His fourth-round opponent is Adrian Mannarino, a Frenchman who still has to beat Federer in five attempts
Preamble
Hello. It was a strange first week at Wimbledon. On the one hand, anyone who is refractory to change will be happy to learn that Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams are still standing. On the other hand, we have already lost Alexander Zverev, Stan Wawrinka, Grigor Dimitrov, Nick Kyrgios, David Goffin, Dominic Thiem and Marin Cilic on the men's side. Garbine Muguruza, the reigning women's champion, has come out. Simona Halep, world number 1, was cut and cut by Hsieh Su-wei on Saturday. Venus Williams, Elina Svitolina, Petra Kvitova, Carolina Wozniacki, Carolina Garcia, Sloane Stephens and Madison Keys left the competition prematurely, leaving Karolina Pliskova, seeded # 7, and Angelique Kerber, seeded # 11. that day Manic Monday, but chaos started early this year.
A penny for the thoughts of all the suits All England Club. You must feel for them. More unpredictability, more upheaval, and they will probably give up. It's going to be that. What would be the goal? The referees would show up in their pajamas. The children of the ball would be allowed to update their Instagram accounts between points. Danny Dyer would be allowed in the Royal Box. In fact, he would be allowed to introduce the players to the crowd. "Now who is this tw …"
But he did not reach this point. Not yet. Blessed Roger should beat Adrian Mannarino today, roaring, bubbling Djokovic should have too much for the great Russian Karen Khachanov, Rafa should be too strong for Jiri Vesely in these hot conditions and the royal Serena should continue his progress against his companion Evgeniya Rodina. As long as this quartet continues, everything will be fine. No worries to have. And if Croatia wants to get England out of the World Cup on Wednesday night, well, that would be really unfortunate, a real shot – but would anyone want to wash a bowl of strawberries with a pint of Pimm's #?
The game starts at 11:30 am on the outdoor courts and at 1 pm on the courts of the exhibition hall.
