MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Wimbledon – Day 5 ladies’ singles final results

There were eight third-round matches, with the balance finishing off the second round.

That included Bianca Andreescu, who will met No. 26 seed Anhelina Kalinina.

It was dramatic in that she seemed to have it in the bag, then she let it out of the bag, then she had to save it when Kalinina served for the match. And then she was rolling in the match tiebreak, and then it got tight.

And then she closed the deal to reach a third-round match with Ons Jabeur on Centre Court.

(Wimbledon is five hours ahead of EDT).
