I can’t wait to see Naomi Osaka’s look today, she has been using fashion to express herself and represent her heritage across all of the slams. So far at Wimbledon she has been wearing a white kimono and she told the BBC about it:

When I think about Wimbledon, it’s obviously the all white. There’s obviously the tradition of it all. In my head, when I think about that, I think about my cultures, my heritage, which is Japanese and Haitian.

Then, if I dive deeper into Japanese culture, I think about the most iconic silhouette, which for me is a kimono. You don’t have to see the colour of a kimono to know that it is a kimono.

I don’t know, I was thinking about my favourite movies also. I love Kill Bill. I remembered absolutely falling in love with Lucy Liu’s character.

She has an all-white kimono, and I remember thinking that was really cool. Then it just kind of went from there. It was like my interpretation of that, while also paying a lot of respect and love to Japan.

Osaka is scheduled to be on centre court against Aryna Sabalenka at 3.10pm BST.

Patten and Heliovaara are clinging on in this match. They were broken early in the third set by Pavlasek and Rikl but they have fought back to win a break themselves, they are currently 4-3 down but they are next to serve. A great match.

In the singles competition, Karolína Muchová and Barbora Krejčíková are scheduled to start the action on court 2 but that will happen after the men’s doubles match is wrapped up. So Novak Djokovic against Roman Safiullin could actually be the game that begins first on centre court. That match is scheduled for 1.30pm BST.

Elise Mertens is currently in action in the women’s doubles with Zhang Shuai as her partner. They lost the opening set 6-3 to Hsieh Su-wei and Wang Xinyu but they have pushed it to a deciding set after winning the second 6-4. Action in the third about to get underway.

Updated

Patten and Heliovaara have taken the second set 6-3 and so the match will be going to a deciding third set against Pavlasek and Rikl.

Staying on court 2, Patten and his men’s doubles partner Harri Heliovaara are a set down after losing the opener 7-2 to Adam Pavlasek and Patrik Rikl but they are winning the second 5-2.

Updated

A fan is having an issue on court 2, there is a pause in the men’s doubles match. Brit Henry Patten spotted the lady was having some trouble and stopped play to make sure she got the attention she needs. The commentators have confirmed she is okay and is helped out by security.

Preamble

Hello and welcome to day seven of Wimbledon. There were some huge shocks yesterday which I will go throigh shortly and a lot of comeback wins, so will today bring us similar drama?

The players set to compete could definitely generate it. Novak Djokovic, Aryna Sabalenka and Jannik Sinner are all in the order of play today so there are sure to be some twists and turns.

The doubles matches have already begun and I will bring you any big news from those games later on, while the singles matches start from 12.30.

For now, let me bring you the order of play from day seven. If you have any thoughts or questions, give me an email.
