The two-time SW19 champion led the Greek No5 seed 2-1 in a late-night thriller before the curfew paused play on Thursday, and will join the likes of world No1s Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek and men’s favourite Novak Djokovic in action again this afternoon.
Alcaraz kicks things off against Alexandre Muller on Centre Court, with Murray then resuming against Tsitsipas before Swiatek takes on No30 seed Petra Martic. Djokovic later faces two-time quarter-finalist Stan Wawrinka.
Given the stacked schedule, British No1 Cameron Norrie is demoted to Court One after a two-day break. He takes on Christopher Eubanks after women’s No2 seed Aryna Sabalenka looks to see off Varvara Gracheva. Ons Jabeur, a finalist last year, rounds off the day against Zhuoxuan Bai.
Elsewhere, there is a quick turnaround for British hope Liam Broady, whose reward for beating No4 seed Casper Ruud is a clash with Denis Shapovalov.
Here’s how Friday looks at SW19…
