Murray returned to SW19 for the first time on Thursday evening winning his first match in two years at the All England Club in the opening round of the men's doubles. Today he was set to get his mixed doubles campaign underway with 23-time Grand Slam champion Williams in what promises to be one of the highlights of the tournament. However Cori Gauff, the 15-year-old breakout star of the tournament, saw her match with Polona Hercog on Centre Court go to a third set meaning the blockbuster duo were made to wait.

Caroline Wozniacki, in her press conference after her loss, about arguing with the umpires over hawkeye:
Wozniacki said: "I thought there were a few ones that I saw way differently. But it is what it is. You can't really change a Hawkeye call."
"Maybe it was right. I just saw it differently. But you trust Hawkeye normally. You trust that it tells you the right thing."
"Sometimes you do see the balls a little differently than what the Hawkeye is. At least you know, OK, you can get it out of your mind."
"I do believe that it was not in the ideal place today."
Wozniacki also said the umpire was agreeing with her during her protests."
"He saw it differently and the linesmen saw it differently, as well," she said. "But then again, there's nothing you can do about it. It is what it is."
