Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

 

At the start of Sunday, the mixed doubles had not gotten under way yet.

At the end of Sunday, it still really hadn’t – save for one British team snuck onto No. 1 Court after a premature singles retirement.

At least on the women’s doubles side, the Canadian women got through, partially.

Monday they’ll try again. If Mother Nature allows. Which, this Wimbledon, is not a given.

(Wimbledon is 5 hours ahead of EDT)
