    Well, what an evening. What a day in fact.

    It's been an absolute barnstormer, capped by that turnaround from Sir Andy Murray on Centre Court.

    We could try to sum Murray's match with Stefanos Tsitsipas up for you but we couldn't do it anywhere near as well as our man on the ground at Wimbledon, Jonathan Jurejko - so we'll drop his report on here shortly.

    Gerry Armstrong, the Wimbledon referee, strolls out and has a word in the ear of each player.

    Murray seems to ask why they are stopping, but Tsitsipas is happy to call it a day at the end of the set.

    The Greek quickly packs his racquets in his bag and scarpers.

    Boos greet the announcement from the chair umpire that the evening's entertainment is over.

    There we are - done.

    It is the natural point to leave the match for now.

  11. Play suspendedpublished at 22:40 British Summer Time 6 July 2023

    Murray 6-7 (3-7) 7-6 (7-2) 6-4 Tsitsipas

    That's our lot for the night.

    It seemed as if the umpire was going to play on until 11pm but the players made their viewpoint known.

    Unsurprisingly really. Stefanos Tsitsipas could do with the overnight break to regroup and Andy Murray will be wary of that fall he had, just before clinching that third set. Rest will be better for that knock than a fourth set would be.

    Stefanos Tsitsipas helps out by sending a return long.

    What a match this is. Murray goes from agony, with an awkward fall, to ecstasy, as he takes the third set and comes from behind to lead the match.

    Oh no. Oh no. Andy Murray screams in agony, surely not.

    He's fallen and looks in real trouble. Hang on, he's up. Fingers crossed. But it is 40-30. He needs to close this set out

    *Murray 6-7 (3-7) 7-6 (7-2) 5-4 Tsitsipas

    One goes begging as a backhand slide goes badly astray from the Scot. 40-15.

    That only spurs the spectators to shout added encouragement to their man.

    You can cut the tension with a knife as Andy Murray prepares to serve for the lead in this second-round match.
