  1. Sense of normality returnspublished at 12:33 British Summer Time 7 July 2021

    The cheer which greeted Karolina Pliskova and Viktorija Golubic onto Court One on Tuesday lunchtime might not have been the loudest of the Wimbledon fortnight, but it had the deepest significance.

    As the pair strode out, they looked up to see fans sat around all parts of the stadium. No masks, no two metres of separation, no fear.

    This day marked another step back towards sporting 'normality' in the UK. Capacity crowds were allowed to watch matches on Centre Court and Court One at the All England Club.

    It was the first major UK sporting event to be allowed 100%-full stadiums since the coronavirus pandemic began.

    "Everyone has waited a long time for this. The fact it is fully open at Wimbledon - such an iconic event - made us feel very excited," said Raj Gill, a 25-year-old trainee pilot who had tickets for Centre Court with his girlfriend Prem Nandrha.

    Hearing the 15,000-seater court would have a full house again made bagging tickets "even better", added 23-year-old devops engineer Prem.

    "You want the atmosphere. And bringing the extra capacity back means it has an extra 'oomph'," she said.

    Marton Fucsovics will contest his first Grand Slam quarter-final after having previously won just one main-draw match at Wimbledon.

    "I think I will become famous now in Hungary," said the world number 48, who is the first Hungarian to reach a Wimbledon quarter-final in 63 years.

    "It's a big thing, huge thing. But for the moment I'm not thinking about what will happen in Hungary, if I will be in the news or if people will talk about me."

    The attention would dramatically increase if Fucsovics can beat Djokovic - and he says he "really enjoys" playing against the illustrious names.

    "When I play against these guys, it's a pleasure for me. They bring out the best of me and I think I can improve my game when I play against them. "

  4. 'A privilege to break records'published at 12:17 British Summer Time 7 July 2021

    Novak Djokovic is aiming for a 20th Grand Slam men's singles title, which would equal the record jointly held by Roger Federer and Spain's Rafael Nadal.

    After already winning the Australian Open and French Open titles, the Serb is bidding to become the fifth man in history to claim the first three majors of the year.

    So far at the All England Club, the two-time defending champion has dropped just one set and eased into his 50th major quarter-final with a one-sided win over Chile's Cristian Garin.

    "You always enjoy obviously hearing those stats. Again, it's a privilege to break records in the sport that I truly love," said Djokovic.

    "I'm devoted to this sport as much as I think anybody out there on the tour. I just try to do my best."

    We're well into the depths of the tournament now and in the men's singles just eight players remain.

    Russian 25th seed Karen Khachanov and Canadian 10th seed Denis Shapovalov - the conqueror of Britain's Andy Murray in the third round - kick off the quarter-finals on Court One from 13:00 BST.

    The winner of that one will play whoever comes through out of top seed Novak Djokovic and Hungary's Marton Fucsovics, who are on Centre Court from 13:30.

    Djokovic and Roger Federer, who contested the 2019 final, are split on opposite sides of the draw.
