It’s day five at Wimbledon - and there’s a huge match for Britain’s Emma Raducanu.

Played on grass at London’s All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, in London, this year’s tournament will be the 138th time it has taken place (and the 131st time the ladies’ singles has been played).

Last year saw Carlos Alcaraz take the men’s singles title for the second year in a row, while Barbora Krejčíková triumphed in the women’s singles championship.

They’re back to defend their titles, along with Novak Djokovic, who will be looking to add a record 25th grand slam trophy to his groaning mantelpiece.

Meanwhile, while Andy Murray’s 2024 tournament was his last, there was still Scottish interest courtesy of Edinburgh-born Jacob Fearnley - but sadly he’s already out, beaten in the first round.

There’s still honourary Scotsman Cameron Norrie though (his dad’s from Glasgow), who produced one of the performances of his career to beat 12th seed Frances Tifoe in the second round and today plays Italian Mattia Bellucci.

Meanwhile all eyes will be on British number one Emma Raducanu, who is playing world number one Aryna Sabalenka in one of the biggest games of the day.
