*V Williams 7-5 4-6 8-8 Kasatkina
Daria Kasatkina looks like she's going to hold to love but Venus Williams fights her way back into the game.
However, the Russian places a backhand winner past her American opponent to level the set again.
This could be a while...

S Williams 6-7 (7-9) 6-2 McHale
Serena Williams sweeps back to parity, although Christina McHale did make her work for it by taking the final game to deuce.
Serena settles back onto her courtside stool with a 1000-yard stare into the middle distance.
McHale nips off court for a comfort break.

V WIlliams 7-5 4-6 8-7 Kasatkina*
So Venus Williams is unable to capitalise on the match point she held before the rain break but she's held her serve to go 8-7 ahead against Daria Kasatkina in the deciding set.
Russian 19-year-old Kasatkina takes a water break, and while in her seat she studies a piece of paper with some sort of game plan on it.
Meanwhile, Mama Williams has finally arrived back in her seat.

They weren't back out long on Centre Court when Hawk-Eye got involved - I think it would be fair to say this was a tight call.

S Williams 6-7 (7-9) 1-1 McHale
We have just seen a replay of Serena's racquet tantrum after losing the first set. Grass courts are less effective at smashing bats so when Serena looks down to find her racquet still in one piece, she chucks it away behind her.
It skims along the surface and into the lap of a television cameraman say in the dugout around the court.
Harrison is engaged to McHale's older sister Lauren.

The set is gone.
And Serena's racquet bears the brunt of its owner's frustration, thrashed on the ground as she takes her seat at court side.

Having said that a big finger of rain is still stretching out into south west London from the centre on Accuweather's rain radar.
Who knows.
