Serena Williams will be up next on Ashe. The only two singles matches currently in progress involve two Australians. Ashleigh Barty, who dragged herself out of a deep hole in the first round before looking more assured in the second, has an early break against the 30th seed from Greece, Maria Sakkari, leading 3-1. And Alex de Minaur looks to have repelled Kei Nishikori’s comeback. The young counterpuncher, who was once called “the future of tennis” by Daniil Medvedev, is a game away from reaching the fourth round of a slam for the first time, leading 6-2, 6-4, 2-6, 5-3. 6.49pm BST
