Since Boris Johnson is the British PM nobody will cry over it. Not to mention the royal family and Kate Middleton handing out the trophies. The Wimbledon traditions are so out of touch with XXI century it literally doesn't matter much.

There was a time not so long ago when married women were referred to on the winners board by their husbands name. So Chris Evert was listed as "Mrs JM Lloyd" cause she was married to John Lloyd. They changed it in 2019 I think

Iga Swiatek dropped a set vs LL Kerkhove but wins 37th match in a row. R3 vs Alize Cornet awaits. This could be the end of the streak since Swiatek's play on grass in the first two matches was average at best.

Maria Sakkari lost to Tatjana Maria in straight sets in R3. That was utterly pathetic with this section of the draw. Jelena Ostapenko has a free pass to SF as she plays Maria and the winner of Watson/Niemeier in QF

Three on court at the same time. Soares & Haddad Maia vs Matos & L. Kichenok in mixed doubles. Will the former speak Portuguese?

Harmony Tan needed only 50 minutes to beat Katie Boulter 61 61 in R3

I have a feeling that it may be the end of Iga streak. Either today with Cornet or on Monday with Tomljanovic.

 

But as all my predictions here are constantly wrong, I hope my own streak will continue… 

[Monzanator 4,786]

Cornet with two breaks in the first three games of the match. If she holds up physically she can totally stop the streak. Swiatek played some bad tennis in the first two matches and got bailed out by the level of opponents (Fett, Kerkhove).

 

Amanda Anisimova takes out Cori Gauff and her terrible FH in three sets to set up the Harmony Tan R4 match.
