Earlier, as I was walking in with many others, this man was selling umbrellas, I'm sure with today's awful forecast, he'll have sold out by now.

Earlier, as I was walking in with many others, this man was selling umbrellas, I'm sure with today's awful forecast, he'll have sold out by now.
It feels like it is going to be that kind of day.
After another relatively brief shower, the umbrellas are down again and the sun is shining.
Emma Raducanu - who plays left-hander Lulu Sun for a place in the Wimbledon quarter-finals today - is practising with another lefty, Liam Broady, at Aorangi Park.
Raducanu has been smiling, having selfies taken with people and laughing with her team.

Ah well, the hope didn't last for long as the covers are back on.
Luckily, it's not long until we have some action over on Court One.

Harriet Dart was so disappointed not to come through her match against Wang Xinyu. I saw her afterwards and she just looked devastated but this has been an amazing tournament for her to get to this stage of Wimbledon and just to have the chances that she did.
To have the break of serve and then she just got a little nervous, you could see it coming and it affected her second serve in particular with her opponent able to get back into the match because of that.
Bit of devastation but Harriet is back in the mix today (in the mixed doubles) so one to look forward to.
Drizzle has turned into some proper rain and those who have decided to stick it out on the outside courts have all got umbrellas up.
It'll be another half an hour at least until we get any play.

Well, with the outside courts being delayed due to the rain, I guess there’s only thing to do…
Shame I wasn’t the only one with that idea!
We've got an end to that strange holding pattern but I'm afraid it's not good news.
The rain that has been falling for the last few minutes, presumably very lightly, must have got that bit heavier.
The covers are on again. Sigh.
We've got a slightly odd situation at the moment where there seems to be no great rush on the outside courts despite the covers having been taken off.
The nets haven't been put up yet and one or two umbrellas have now popped up.
But there is no move to put the covers back on and ball boys and girls are still in the process of trying to deal with the odd damp patch behind the baseline at either end of the courts. So it can't be that bad.

Novak Djokovic just seems to be getting better and better. He has got to be so careful with trying to slide on the grass courts.
We have seen him in the past being so flexible and it's just not going to happen for him this year. The fact that he has to move in a different way will be challenging for him.
He came through against a big server in Alexei Popyrin who had huge confidence in the match.
Djokovic doing what he does best and winning on Centre Court.

Not an umbrella in sight, that's a good sign, right?
Not sure how long that will last though.
This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill.
The covers are indeed off and it looks pretty bright at the All England Club.
Quick, quick, get some players out!

Despite the weather forecast not looking too promising as Sam says, the covers are in the process of being pulled off!
Well I have to say this doesn't look promising.
It's no good having a bit of sun poking through the clouds if it's also absolutely chucking it down with thunder and lightning.
Currently the covers are still on and we're not expecting any play until after 12:00 BST.
That feels slightly optimistic.

On my walk into SW19 this morning, I came across this lovely pair.
Rufus the Hawk and Donna were outside Court One where onlookers were in awe.
Donna is Rufus’ owner and she says he is largely a wild bird despite being tremendously well trained after completing 16 years of service as Wimbledon's chief pigeon scarer.
Hope you enjoy the action today, Rufus!

What is Andy Murray really like?
It is a question I am frequently asked.
Driven, passionate, emotional, resilient and potty-mouthed are all adjectives regular Murray watchers could turn to.
Mischievous, funny, loyal, polite and indecisive are words I would add, having been lucky enough to develop a professional relationship with him over the past 11 years.
While Emma Raducanu is the last remaining British player in the singles, you can't move for Brits in the doubles.
Neal Skukspi won the men's doubles last year and, alongside new partner Michael Venus of New Zealand, is through to the second round. They'll play Aussie pair Rinky Hijikata and John Peers first up on court three once the rain stops.
That's the place to be for Brits today with Marcus Willis and Alicia Barnett playing in the second match and Jamie Murray, playing with American Taylor Townsend in the mixed doubles rounding things off.
Two-time US Open champions Brit Joe Salisbury and Rajeev Ram, of the US, are in action later in court 12, while Lloyd Glasspool and Harriet Dart are up the last match on court two in the mixed doubles.
There is also an all-British clash in the mixed doubles as Julian Cash and Maia Lumsden take on Henry Patten and Olivia Nicholls. That is the last match scheduled on court 15.
Emily Appleton and Lily Miyazaki, Charles Broom and Arthur Fery, Luke Johnson and Freya Christie, and Heather Watson, who will play alongside Salisbury, are also in action.

Nipped into the media centre for a coffee and it was gloomy, came out 15 minutes later and the sun was breaking through! Are we about to get some play?
Not entirely unexpected but the latest update is that there will be no play before 12:00 BST.
The better news is that it does look much brighter at the All England Club with just the odd umbrella still up, most people seem to be coping just fine without.

Saturday’s schedule played a major part in Emma Raducanu's decision.
Being asked to play in the fourth match of the day on Court One is the same as being asked to play in a night session.
And given this Grand Slam is a predominantly daytime event, you can understand why a player would not want to spend all evening on site with a fourth-round singles match the following day.
The schedule put Raducanu in a very awkward position, and has led to a decision which will be very disappointing for Murray and everyone looking forward to what would have been a fun finale to his Wimbledon career.
This was no ordinary mixed doubles pairing, although players do regularly prioritise singles over doubles.
