14:44
Rain break until at least 3:15 p.m.
The rain continues and the match is therefore not continued before 3:15 p.m.
14:27
The game is interrupted
Only four points are played and at 30:30 it starts to really rain. The game is stopped, but the players are not sent from the square. This is a bit strange, because it was already heard and the thick clouds pull anything but quickly. After a short time, the referee also sees this and Sierra and victory and victory and victims move into the cabin.

Sierra served!
In the first rally, both players beat very in the middle before the woman from Argentina advanced and puts her forehand significantly behind the opposing baseline.
14:23
The start is delayed by a few minutes
This match becomes mentally a test of patience, because after the warm-up it doesn’t start immediately. Individual umbrellas can already be seen in the audience, but apparently it goes on and Sierra served!
14:16
The players are there!
Although the next 30 minutes of rain is the order of the day, the two players face each other at the coin tower. Siegemund is lucky on your side and decides to set up. Now the warm-up starts!
14:07
When does it start?
Court 2 has been free for a few minutes because Khachanov prevailed in three rounds, but the dark clouds come closer and closer and apparently it should start to rain from 2:15 p.m. It is therefore not yet clear whether Sierra and Siegemund will start immediately afterwards or the short weather front is waited for.
14:04
Does experience make the carefree?
A favorite is not clear before this match, because both players played into a flow! Siegemund has already contested over 1,000 singles on the tour, while Sierra has not yet broken the 300 match mark. But the intensive duels of the past few days have been able to create the 37-year-old, so today a lot will arrive on her own serve and the right tactics. Only once did Siegemund reach a quarter -finals at a Grand Slam: in 2020 she moved on to sand in the round of the last eight players at the Roland Garros tournament. Does she make it again today?
13:57
Sierra takes your chance
The 21-year-old Solana Sierra also made headlines at the same time because she slipped into the main field as a Lucky Loser and surprisingly won her first three matches. With victories over Gadecki, Boulter and Bucsa, she prevailed against better placed players. Their run was reminiscent of the German Eva Lys, who was similar in Melbourne in January. In Wimbledon, this run of a Lucky loose is unique! It is unusual that the Argentine finds her way so well on lawn because she has only played on sand in the past few months.
13:51
Siegemund starts in singles
The 37-year-old German had increasingly focused on double and mixed competitions in the past year, with success: 16 titles in doubles celebrated victory and celebrated! In the individual, she has now reached the fourth round of Wimbledon for the first time and caused a stir because she recently defeated the reigning Australian Open winner Maddison Keys in two sets. Through this performance, the woman from Filderstadt canceled her participation in the mixed at short notice, so only double with her Brazilian partner Haddad Maia.
13:32
Hello and welcome!
Hello and welcome to the round of 16 Wimbledon! The only remaining German player, Laura Siegemund, meets Solana Sierra from Argentina in the fourth round. Khachanov and Majchrzak are currently still playing on the Court 2, and a smaller rain front is also approaching. This match will not start before 2:15 p.m.
