Andy Murray will have to resume his Wimbledon match against Stefanos Tsitsipas on Friday after the 36-year-old produced a stunning comeback under the lights on Centre Court before the contest was suspended due to the 11pm curfew.
The two-time Wimbledon champion was staring at an early elimination as an inspired Tsitsipas took the opening set on a tiebreak, but Murray roared back to win the crucial second-set decider.
With the momentum behind him, Murray broke the fifth seed early in the third and stood with three set points after finding a solid level behind his serve.
Despite slipping on set point and appearing to injure his groin, Murray was able to take the lead in the match as Tsitsipas fired long in what was a frenzied atmosphere under the lights.
The curfew was called at the end of the third set and Murray will resume on Friday afternoon with the 36-year-old just needing to win one more set to reach the third round. Follow live updates, scores and results from SW19 below.

Andy Murray thrills in latest epic, but this time there’s a twist
Thursday 6 July 2023 23:20 , Jamie Braidwood
When looking down upon Centre Court, it is easy to construe the surface as some unearthly plain, to see the players who glide across it as some otherworldly beings. But truthfully, these are just people, and this is (glance over your shoulder, whisper it to a trusted friend) just grass.
In that same vein, Sir Andy Murray is merely a man. His faults prove that, even if his feats belie it. His clanging metal hip is a manmade accessory, not an astral invention. His brain ponders the ideal timing of a forehand and what awaits for dinner, not the bewildering basis of human existence and its place in the cosmos. Murray, like us, is human, no matter how many miracles he conjures on court. That is the reality.
Yet on the fourth night of Wimbledon, reality flickered in front of the Centre Court crowd and fizzled into something else altogether. This addictive, augmented reality read: ‘Andy Murray 6-7, 7-6, 6-4 Stefanos Tsitsipas.’

It’s tough to be Tsitsipas now – Centre Court is willing every moment and point to fall Murray’s way.
Huge game for the Greek: he makes a good start and Murray groans as his backhand drifts long.
Tsitsipas looked to have the point sown-up behind the forehand, but Tsitsipas then frames the Murray slice! Centre Court erupts!
And that’s far too hesitant from Tsitsipas! He almost apologetically taps a backhand into Murray’s path, and Murray puts away the volley.

Quite odd seeing blue sky and sunshine above the Centre Court roof.
Murray has ever right to feel confident ahead of this one: he beat Tsitsipas on grass at Stuttgart last year and comes into this Wimbledon in great form.
The Greek does not… He only had a 1-3 record on grass before needing five sets to see off the former US Open champion Dominic Thiem last year.
That gives Murray another advantage – he had the full rest day off after his opening win against Ryan Peniston on Tuesday.

Thursday 6 July 2023 17:45 , Alex Pattle
Novak Djokovic has insisted that he was not bothered by the Wimbledon crowd on Wednesday, as many of those in attendance audibly rooted for Jordan Thompson to beat the seven-time champion.

“They’re actually doing me a favour,” Djokovic, 36, told Serbian media. “The more they root against me, the better off I am. With me, they wake up to something they might not want to see – a winner.”
