    Tie-break time. Never in doubt, was it?

    The noise level inside Centre goes industrial.

    Here. We. Go.

    One-all in breakers so far. How will the third pan out?

    It really isn't easy coming out in this situation. The intensity and the atmosphere. There is almost an internal expectation that you should be playing at the same level - but it doesn't work like that.

    Oh yes! Tsitsipas looks to his box after being left rooted to the spot as he watches an inch-perfect Murray backhand fly down the line.

    Another! The crowd show their appreciation again for the level of tennis they're being treated to by the Briton, who perfectly executes a forehand pass and bring a tie-break into view.

    Great serve. Here. We. Go.

    *Norrie 3-6 6-3 2-6 1-2 Eubanks

    Chris Eubanks doesn't hang around as he once again holds to love on serve. He's a set up and has the momentum so far.

    Cool as you like by Stefanos Tsitsipas.

    The vast majority of Centre Court is against him, but he's blocking out the noise superbly so far.

    Some terrific serving keeps Murray out of reach, a final forehand into the corner calling upon Murray to serve for a tie-break.

    Wowwww! Where did that come from?

    An absolute beaut of a shot seals Broady the opening set. It was tricky at times but the Brit was smart and rode the waves so well.

    He will be flying high on confidence right now.

    Shapovalov was absolutely fuming, shouting towards his team in the stand while the court two crowd went wild.

    Norrie 3-6 6-3 2-6 1-1 Eubanks*

    It is a hark back to the first set with both players looking strong on serve.

    A double fault at 30-15 up is Cameron Norrie's only blemish as he holds.

  8. Murray holds servepublished at 17:15 British Summer Time 7 July 2023

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

    That's not an ideal start for Andy Murray, a failed drop shot finds the net.

    Fortunately for the Briton, Tsitsipas fails to seize the initiative, miscuing a backhand.

    Excellent point! Murray puts his opponent to work, painting the lines before delivering a delicate final touch over the net.

    Pressure? He doesn't know the meaning of the word. A hold to 15. Who will blink first?

    *Norrie 3-6 6-3 2-6 0-1 Eubanks

    Chris Eubanks has hit 16 aces to Cameron Norrie's five and those powerful serves once again prove too much for Norrie as he kicks off the fourth set with a hold to love.

    Hoping there won't be too much drama in this one, but something tells me they're going to be out here for a while.

    *Pegula 2-0 Cocciaretto

    Elisabetta Cocciaretto is able to carry on after her medical timeout, albeit with some heavy strapping on her ankle.

    However, the injury looks like it has taken a toll as American fourth seed Jessica Pegula breaks early to take a 2-0 lead in the opening set.

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

    An opening. Murray punches the air to celebrate a terrific forehand return and 15-30 on the Tsitsipas serve.

    Ah, but for some reason he doesn't bother to challenge after a brilliant cross-court backhand is called out. It was very much in. A superb shot goes unrewarded.

    Murray still manages to force deuce, but Tsitsipas sticks to his task - and now the pressure really is on with the fifth seed a break of serve away from levelling the match...

    I hope Murray doesn’t lose now after not challenging that crucial point! Come on Andy!Image source, Getty Images
  13. Cash & Barnett into third setpublished at 17:10 British Summer Time 7 July 2023

    Cash/Barnett 4-6 7-6 (7-5) Mektic/Pera

    Over on court six, Julian Cash and Alicia Barnett have hit back to take the second set of their mixed doubles match against Nikola Mektic and Bernarda Pera.

    Into a decider for the British pair.

    Chris Eubanks seals the third set in style with another break and he leads three sets to one.

    Jess Anderson

    We go again!

    Broady takes another big hold to keep us on serve.

    Denis Shapovalov not happy with that, he lets out an almighty roar as he thinks he should’ve done better against the Brit’s serve.

    Meanwhile in the crowd, it’s a game of ‘which seat has the most shade’. The lesser known version of musical chairs.

  16. 'Smart play from Murray, targeting Tsitsipas backhand'published at 17:06 British Summer Time 7 July 2023

    Smart play from Murray, dictating the rallies and targeting his attack to the Tsitsipas backhand.

    More of the same?

    It is for now - to the delight of the increasingly excitable Centre Court crowd.

    Murray, playing a patient game, takes charge of the baseline exchanges on serve, bending a forehand beyond Tsitsipas, before the Greek hits out with a backhand that flies wide of the mark.

    The noise levels rise another level, as Murray shuffles in for a volley and 4-4 in the fourth.

    *Norrie 3-6 6-3 2-5 Eubanks

    Cameron Norrie is battling to break back and a first pump to win a point at 30-30 by Chris Eubanks shows that he knows how important it is to hold here.

    Eubanks then sweeps a groundstroke into the far corner and he holds. One game away from sealing the third set.

    Oh dear. It's not good news for Elisabetta Cocciaretto.

    The Italian is only one game into her third-round tie with fourth seed Jessica Pegula and has already had to call for the physio.

    She doesn't look happy as she suffers a minor slip that seems to jar her ankle.

    Could this match be over before it's even really begun?

    Meet Stefanos Tsitsipas super-fan Billy Edment.

    Possibly the only Brit who wants Tsitsipas to beat Andy Murray today?

    Can't be many more, surely.

    Along with his sister Siobhan, Billy has come to SW19 from the Surrey town of Farnham and was watching his hero warm up earlier on Aorangi.

    Even better news... they've got tickets on Centre Court!

    "Obviously I watching the match last night - to find out they would finish the match today on Centre was an incredible bonus. I'm so happy!" he says.

    "I'm sure he will turn it around later."
