Carlos Alcaraz has not been at his best so far in the tournament but the defending champion has still reached the third round without dropping a set.

The 21-year-old Spaniard saw off Estonia's Mark Lajal and Aleksandar Vukic of Australia to get to this stage but will know he needs to up his level if he is to end the fortnight clutching the Wimbledon trophy again.

In his way today is American Frances Tiafoe, who has had an indifferent 2024 to this point and needed five sets to get past Italy's Matteo Arnaldi in round one.

He had an easier time of it in the second round, beating Borna Coric in straight sets.

Victory would see Tiafoe match his best performance at the All England Club when he reached the fourth round in 2022.

A very welcome sight across the outside courts with the covers being removed and nets going up.

It's looking good for play starting not long after 13:00 BST.

Just overheard one lady in complete shock at the length of a tennis match.

“Three and a half hours for one match? Are you having me on?” she says in astonishment to her boyfriend.

I don’t know how she’ll feel when she finds out they can go on for five hours!

That's right, we'll definitely have some action at around 13:00 BST with Italian Jasmine Paolini taking on Canada's Bianca Andreescu on Court One - likely under the roof.

Paolini and Andreescu are both trying to reach the fourth round at SW19 for the first time and are both playing some really good tennis this summer.

Paolini was a finalist at this year's French Open, while Andreescu won the US Open back in 2019.

The time is creeping towards 13:00 BST which means we are going to see some actual tennis!

Seventh seed Jasmine Paolini takes on Canada's Bianca Andreescu to get things started on Court One.

We're also hoping that there will be action on the outside courts before too long. The rain has held off and the clean up operation is under way so fingers crossed it stays dry.

Centre Court is relatively empty given play doesn't start here for another hour.

That's why it was strange when we heard a big cheer coming from the courtside.

Turns out it was a Wimbledon proposal as Gabrielli got down on one knee and Anna was quick to say YES!

The Italian couple moved to London eight years ago and as a former architect at Wimbledon, Gabrielli thought Centre Court was the perfect spot for a proposal.

"I decided to do it in here because it is a very special place," said Gabrielli.

"We are super happy, this is a special day for us. I think she has enjoyed it so far!"

Outside Court 18 is a plaque reminding everyone of the titanic tussle that took place here.

It’s 14 years since John Isner defeated Nicolas Mahut after 11 hours and five minutes. Incredible.

Wimbledon is known for its beautiful flower displays and colourful hanging baskets.

It must be a nightmare for the ground staff to water them all each day!

Luckily for them, I don't think they are going to be worrying about that today.

He [Andy Murray] has had significant injuries and he has managed to get back to a level that I don't think anyone thought he would have been able to.

He's talked about it before, he doesn't want to stop. The decision he's had to make would have been so, so difficult.

It's right that he gets a farewell here but I thought last night was beautifully done, very fitting. It was very special out there.

But he still has to keep going, he's got mixed doubles.

He would be an amazing asset for British players as a coach. He's inspired so many. Firstly he has given fans a huge amount. He's given everyone in the media a huge amount to follow, to talk about. But really importantly, he has inspired other British players that it can be done.

Whatever he wants to do, he'll make the best decision. He always has done.

Perhaps the tennis gods are still in mourning after the emotional Andy Murray tributes last night, their tears still falling on the courts of SW19...

Do you want the good news or the bad news?

The good news is that, as Charlotte says, the rain has indeed stopped.

The bad news is that despite that, the start of play on the outside courts has been delayed until 13:00 BST at the earliest.

We will definitely have some tennis from that time on Court One.

It has stopped raining. I repeat, it has stopped raining!

The reception that the Murray brothers got when they walked out on Centre Court was absolutely immense. It was very emotional, the whole thing.

Everyone knew how difficult a decision it had been for Andy not to play singles here in his last Wimbledon.

He would have thought they would have gone deeper in this but the Aussie pair played really well but there was more to it than a doubles match.

Tennis has been his life, that's what he's been built for, that's what he's committed to. He's had so much success. These last four or five years have been so difficult because he hasn't been afforded the chance to go on his terms and keep being the player that he was.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but looking at the scene on court two, I'd say the chances of play starting at 12:15 BST on the outside courts are slim to none.

The rain looks to be hammering down now, umbrellas are up and some of those who had ventured out hopeful of seeing some tennis soon are retreating to try and find cover.

It is a big day for the Brits in the doubles - or at least it will be once the rain stops - with 13 players involved across 10 matches.

Having won the men's doubles last year, Neal Skupski is competing in the mixed doubles alongside American Desirae Krawczyk today.

Joe Salisbury and Rajeev Ram, of the USA, are the third seeds in the men's doubles and the two-time US Open champions continue their bid for a first Wimbledon title on court three later.

Meanwhile, Harriet Dart, fresh from her win over Katie Boulter yesterday, is in action alongside Lloyd Glasspool in the mixed doubles.

Henry Patten, Charles Broom, Arthur Fery, Samantha Murray Sharan, Eden Silva, Julian Cash, Marcus Willis, Alicia Barnett and Olivia Nicholls are also due on court throughout the day.

Despite the rainfall and the terrors of today’s weather forecast, there were still thousands of people making their way up the the All England Club this morning on my walk in.

Always popular whatever the weather!

Before Andy Murray took centre stage yesterday, there was a gripping battle between the women's British numbers one and two with Harriet Dart fighting back to win a final-set tie-break against Katie Boulter.

World number 94 Dart became tearful when she fell 6-2 down in the breaker but won eight of the last 10 points to knock out the 32nd seed.

Speaking about why she had to compose herself, Dart said afterwards: "When you're in the moment and you give everything, and it's not just about on that court in that moment, it's everything that goes before the match, months, years of the work that you put in. I just wanted it really, really badly.

"I let things kind of get to me a little bit. I managed to regroup, which was the main thing, just fight my hardest. I was really pleased, as you probably saw at the end, to get away with the win."

Dart plays unseeded Wang Xiyu of China in the third round.
