Day four recap

On the British front, Arthur Fery is the last player standing after he beat qualifier Otto Virtanen – conqueror of fourth seed Ben Shelton – in their second-round tie.

French-born Fery, who grew up in Wimbledon, was the only Brit to make it to the middle weekend after there were defeats for Katie Swan, Jacob Fearnley and Jan Choinski.

Swan lost 6-1 6-4 to former Australian Open champion Madison Keys, while Fearnley fell in straight sets to Spaniard Jaume Munar, 6-4 7-6 6-4, and Choinski battled hard against 17th seed Frances Tiafoe but ultimately lost in four, 4-6 6-2 7-5 6-2.

Day four recap

Reigning champion Iga Swiatek suffered a scare as she needed three sets to see off Taylor Townsend in round 1, but was in cruise control against 2021 runner-up Karolina Pliskova, who is making a gradual return from a long injury lay-off, in yesterday’s second-round encounter. The Pole won 6-1 6-3 in the first match on Centre Court.

Later on Matteo Berrettini won an entertaining four-set tussle with 20th seed Arthur Fils, with the Italian overjoyed to be playing at the top level again after recurring injury crises.

And there was joy too for Grigor Dimitrov, who was forced out of Wimbledon last year with a torn pec muscle when leading Jannik Sinner in their fourth-round match. The Bulgarian, who was granted a wildcard for this tournament, saw off 15th seed Jakub Mensik in four sets and will now face Berrettini in the third round.
