Serena Williams has let a few ball tosses fall to the floor unstruck as she practices her serve in the warm-up.
The wind is ruffling her skirt hem. Is it ruffling her composure as well? We are about to find out.
Williams to serve.

John McEnroe
Three-time Wimbledon singles champion on BBC TVIt is pretty blustery here and that will be an issue for the players to play to the level they want to.
For me that benefits Kerber because Serena will not be able to go for the shots she wants to.

Serena Williams removes the regulation-white jumbo earphones that she wore out onto court, takes a leisurely sip of isotonic and eventually gets off her stool to join the umpire, coin-tosser Uma and her opponent at the net.
If she moves as slowly on court as she has in getting onto court then Kerber has a chance.
The wind is swirling around the hallowed stands of Centre Court. That could monkey with both players' ball toss.

Serena has a tendency to get off to slow starts.
The nerves will be different for Kerber walking out at Wimbledon.

Lindsay Davenport
Former Wimbledon champion on BBC TVI think Serena will be thinking about the three Grand Slam defeats but she has been so open with it.
She has something so real to play for, to be the greatest player of all time, that adds pressure but motivates her to practice more and more.
Here they come...published at 14:04 British Summer Time 9 July 2016
14:04 BST 9 July 2016The two remaining singles ladies walk out onto the Centre Court grass.
They're both adhering to the strict dress-code in all-white, and carrying huge blooming bunches of flowers.
Helping out with the coin toss today is young Uma Baker-Bahl.
The 11-year-old from East London is representing charity Barnardos. Uma helps care for her mum and auntie. What a moment for her - she's a big Serena fan, apparently.

Co commentator, BBC TwoHoudet is trying to ensure Peifer doesn't plateau. They are a well-versed pair and Houdet knows how to get the best out of his partner. That's why he's remonstrating with him. That's how they do things.
Houdet has just rather forcefully hit Peifer's arm and continues to shout instructions at his partner.

18-time Grand Slam singles champion on BBC TVKnowing Serena has lost her last two finals will give her extra motivation.
She is not going to let it slip through her fingers again. The grass is tailor-made for her game.

It is a real arm wrestle out there.
