Wimbledon day five: Andy Murray and Dan Evans out but Novak Djokovic marches on
In the women’s draw, big hitters Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek and Karolina Pliskova made it through, along with Ons Jabeur.
Andy Murray’s Wimbledon return ended with a Friday night beating by 10th seed Denis Shapovalov.
The two-time champion was playing his first singles campaign at SW19 since having a metal plate inserted into his hip, and after rolling back the years in his first two rounds, he came unstuck in the third round against the Canadian.
There was more bad news for Great Britain as Dan Evans went out, but defending champion Novak Djokovic marched on serenely.
In the women’s draw, big hitters Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek and Karolina Pliskova made it through, with Ons Jabeur also getting to the fourth round – for the first time – after beating Garbine Muguruza.
