Tie-break time on the No 1 Court. The 38-year-old Venus, competing in her 21st Wimbledon, wins the first point and then shows there’s still life in her ageing legs with a superb sprint, but she loses the point. 1-1. 2-1 Venus, the first mini-break. 3-1. 4-1. 5-1 at the changeover …
Venus edges ahead 6-5 in the second set. Serena holds for 2-1 in the first. Mladenovic could cause Serena a few problems this afternoon. The 25-year-old broke into the world’s top 10 last season before her progress was stalled by a knee injury, and Serena struggled against her at the French Open in 2016, before going on to win the title.
