LONDON (Reuters) – Highlights of the fourth day at the Wimbledon tennis championships on Thursday (times GMT):
1009 PLAY UNDERWAY
Play began under cloudy skies with the temperature hovering around 19 degrees Celsius. Britain’s Met Office has forecast a largely rain-free day, which would provide relief for organisers after a chaotic start to the Grand Slam.
Rain caused more scheduling delays and climate change protesters added to the disruption on Wednesday. Seventeen men’s and women’s first-round matches have yet to start or remain unfinished.
