It will be Fritz’s 10th set in two matches here after playing a final in Eastbourne last week.There will be blood.And it’s flowing from the wound on Fritz’s elbow, who opened it while crashing to the grass in a lunging attempt at a return.He’s now being treated by a physio and it’s taken enough time where he’s required to take a medical timeout.Fritz will have another break point when play resumes with Diallo 6-3, 2-6, 6-7(0), 3-2, 30-40.

After breaking for 2-1, the Canadian consolidated with a marathon 22-point game that included eight deuces.Heady stuff.Fritz and Diallo are back under way after an 18-minute break.Meanwhile, a vulnerable Katie Boulter laments her shock defeat in the main interview room:I mean, of course it hurts.It’s a really tough pill to swallow.

It always is here.Unfortunately it’s just the way that it is.Sometimes I just have to accept that my moment might not come at some point.I’m just going to keep working hard and keep trying my hardest.Ultimately that’s all I can do and keep putting myself out there and keep improving every single year.

Also suspended: the match on Court 17 between France’s Arthur Rinderknech and the Chilean lucky loser Cristian Garin with Rinderknech leading 3-6, 6-3, 7-6(3).British wildcard Arthur Fery, who was born in France but educated at nearby King’s College Wimbledon and then at Stanford, faces an uphill battle after falling behind 6-4, 6-3 against Italy’s Luciano Dardieri.But that battle will extend another day as their second-round title on No 2 Court has also been suspended for darkness.Fritz has run away with the third-set tiebreaker over Diallo over on No 1 Court, rattling off seven unanswered points for a 3-6, 6-3, 7-6(0) lead.The match has been suspended to the retractable roof.

The first was Wimbledon 2018.Fritz could be in for another long night on No 1 Court.He’s breezed through the second set in 25 minutes to square things with Diallo at one set apiece.The American won 92% of the points on his first serve in the second frame, up from 69% in the opener.Another top player crashes out as fourth-seeded Jasmine Paolini bows 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 to world No 87 Kamilla Rakhimova.

It’s the biggest win of the 23-year-old Russian’s career and it comes against last year’s runner-up.Paolini’s departure makes it 28 seeds to have gone out of the tournament in less than four completed days – 14 apiece on the men’s and women’s sides – including the No 2, No 3, No 4 and No 5 women’s seeds.“I knew today I had to be aggressive because Marketa would beat me if I pushed the ball around,” Raducanu says.“The atmosphere was electric and I’m just so happy to get to play another match here.”Asked about her Friday date with Sabalenka, the British No 1 is to the point: “Of course she’s No 1 in the world right now, so dominant on the tour, has won literally everything.

It’s going to be a very difficult match.All I can do is control my side of the court as much as possible.I guess there’s no pressure on me in the next round at all.”Raducanu closes it out like she’s got a taxi waiting.She breaks Vondrousova to close out a 6-3, 6-3 win over the 2023 Wimbledon champion in 82 minutes.

Emma Raducanu appeared to have drawn first blood on Centre Court, passing Marketa Vondrousova with a dazzling backhand winner for 4-2, only to quickly go triple break point down in the ensuing game.Raducanu saved two of them but a biffed forehand from the baseline gifted the break back to Vondrousova, who will serve at 3-4 after the change of ends.It got late early for the No 12 seed Diana Shnaider over on Court 18.She dropped 10 of the final 11 games in a 6-4, 6-1 defeat to the French qualifier Diane Parry, who progresses to face the British 23-year-old Sonay Kartal next.Solana Sierra backed into the main draw after losing in the third round of last week’s qualifying tournament.

It’s been a much longer time in London than expected, which has forced her to change her apartment three times.Today’s win means she and her mother will be moving house a fourth time.“Like we said, it’s a good problem,” she says.Katie Boulter is out in the second round at Wimbledon for the second straight year.Last year it was Harriet Dart who did the honours.

This time it’s Solana Sierra, the 21-year-old lucky loser from Argentina who has won 6-7(7), 6-2, 6-1 for her first career win over an opponent in the top 50.“It feels amazing,” Sierra says.“I knew it was a tough match.Katie is an amazing player, so I tried to focus on myself and enjoy the moment because it’s a dream to play at Wimbledon and on this court and in front of this crowd.”It was a day to forget for the 28-year-old from Leicestershire, whose 36 unforced errors included 14 double faults.

Amanda Anisimova is through to round three after a straightforward 6-4, 6-3 win over Mexico’s Renata Zarazua.The No 13 seed from the United States advances to face Hungary’s Dalma Galfi, the world No 110 who upset Beatriz Haddad Maia earlier today.Emma Raducanu and Marketa Vondrousova have taken Centre Court for their peach of a teatime fixture between former grand slam champions.The Briton impressed in her first-round win over Mimi Xu, showcasing a more aggressive forehand, the product of recent technical tweaks under new coach Mark Petchey.That shot will be vital against the 2023 Wimbledon champion, a clever lefty who thrives on disrupting rhythm with spin and court craft.
