Day Four at Wimbledon was one to remember for British tennis, and in particular Katie Boulter. The world no 118 shocked sixth seed Karolina Plisova on Centre Court to record the finest win of her career. She wasn’t alone in winning through, as Heather Watson and Liam Broady also kept their SW19 dreams alive. And today, Watson will be back in action for the fifth consecutive day, facing Slovenian Kaja Juvan on Court No 1 as she bids to make the fourth round for the first time.
And she won’t be the only home talent among the star attractions. Centre Court will play host to Cameron Norrie, who faces American Steve Johnson. It was Johnson who ended the hopes of Norrie’s compatriot Ryan Peniston on Tuesday.
Norrie’s bid to reach the last-16 for the first time won’t be on the showpiece arena straight away though. First up will be women’s third seed Ons Jabeur, who takes on Diane Parry of France. And following that match, Novak Djokovic will continue his bid to retain his Wimbledon title.
The Serbian takes on one of his countrymen, Miomir Kecmanovic. The 25th seed however, is not expected to give the 20-time Grand Slam champion many problems. One potential threat to his title though, Spanish teenager Carlos Alcaraz, will also be in action when he concludes the action on Court 1 against Germany’s Oscar Otte.
