    Kerber needs to mix up the serve. 

    The leftie serve is great but she will have to serve down the middle at times.

    Murray v Raonic (14:00 BST)

    Saturday is officially 'rest day' for Andy Murray, as he prepares for the men's final tomorrow.

    But obviously practice makes perfect. He's been out on court 19 going through the motions before his meeting with Milos Raonic.

    As always, he was joined by coach Ivan Lendl and thousands of adoring fans.

    Stephane Houdet and Nicolas Peifer nibble back one of the two breaks of serve established by Britain's Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid in the deciding set.

    But the Brits have another chance to serve out for the title, this time the pressure falls on Alfie Hewett,

    Second time lucky?

    My fellow German beat Serena in Melbourne and certainly has a chance to beat her at Wimbledon, but if I was a money guy I would bet Serena.

    It is ram-jammed on court 17 with a partisan crowd getting behind British wheelchair doubles finalists Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid.

    There are even a few canny souls who have gone up to the back row of seats on neighbouring court 16 and leaned over the side to get a view.

    Reid and Hewett are a break up in the third and deciding set.

  14. Williams is 'heavy favourite'published at 13:03 British Summer Time 9 July 2016

    S.Williams v Kerber

    BBC pundit Lindsay Davenport has had her say on today's women's singles final.

    She reckons Serena Williams is going to lift her seventh title.

    "She is the heavy favourite just based on the surface. And that's not to mention being a six-time champion and the level she has played at over the past two weeks."

  15. Does Serena still get nervous?published at 12:55 British Summer Time 9 July 2016

    Mary Pierce
    Former French Open champion on BBC Radio 5 live

    She is human like all of us. Everyone gets nervous going into a Grand Slam final.

    It's normal, if you don't it is strange. You always have that desire to do well, to do your best and win.

    It is good to have nerves, if you do you might be too relaxed.

    Angelique Kerber's hitting partner is a fella who must be around six foot five or so.

    Presumably that is to replicate Serena's jumbo ground game and serve.

    Steffi Graf - they're coming for you.

    Should Serena Williams win the title here today, she will equal Graf's incredible haul of 22 Grand Slam titles.

    If Angelique Kerber is victorious, she will become the first German woman to win here since Graf in 1996.
