Wimbledon 2025 Day 5 schedule: Carlos Alcaraz, Emma Raducanu headline 3rd round fixtures
Carlos Alcaraz faces Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff as he looks to build on his recent form. The defending champion survived a five-set scare in the first round against Fabio Fognini, but rebounded strongly with a straight-sets win over Oliver Tarvet. He'll be aiming to hit top gear today against the unseeded German.Later in the day, Emma Raducanu takes on her toughest test yet as she faces world number three Aryna Sabalenka in what promises to be a high-octane encounter. Raducanu has been in scintillating form so far, winning both her matches in straight sets and conceding no more than six games in either outing.Sabalenka, meanwhile, has had to work a little harder. In her opening match against Canada's Carson Branstine, the Belarusian was forced into a second-set tie-break. She faced similar resistance in the second round and has yet to fully hit her stride.Amongst the Indian tennis players, Yuki Bhambri, alongside China's Xinyu Jiang (CHN) will go up against the American duo of Christian Harrison (USA) and Nicole Melichar-Martinez.ORDER OF PLAY ON DAY 5: WIMBLEDON 2025 (ALL LOCAL TIMES)CENTRE COURT - 1:30 PMTaylor Fritz (USA) [5] v Alejandro Davidovich Fokina (ESP) [26]Jan-Lennard Struff (GER) v Carlos Alcaraz (ESP) [2]Aryna Sabalenka [1] v Emma Raducanu (GBR)NO.1 COURT - 1:00 PMDiane Parry (FRA) v Sonay Kartal (GBR)Mattia Bellucci (ITA) v Cameron Norrie (GBR)Elise Mertens (BEL) [24] v Elina Svitolina (UKR) [14]NO.2 COURT - 11:00 AMAnastasia Pavlyuchenkova v Naomi Osaka (JPN)Ben Shelton (USA) [10] leads Rinky Hijikata (AUS) To Finish 6-2 7-5 5-4 (match to finish)Laura Siegemund (GER) v Madison Keys (USA) [6]Nicolas Jarry (CHI) v Joao Fonseca (BRA)NO.3 COURT - 11:00 AMDalma Galfi (HUN) v Amanda Anisimova (USA) [13]Andrey Rublev [14] v Adrian Mannarino (FRA)Nuno Borges (POR) v Karen Khachanov [17]COURT 16 - 12:30PMCamila Osorio (COL) / Alycia Parks (USA) v Nicole Melichar-Martinez (USA) / Liudmila Samsonova [15]Jamie Murray (GBR) / Emily Appleton (GBR) v David Stevenson (GBR) / Maia Lumsden (GBR)Yuki Bhambri (IND) / Xinyu Jiang (CHN) v Christian Harrison (USA) / Nicole Melichar-Martinez (USA)- Ends

Siegemund stuns Keys as seeds continues to tumble
Mumbai: Laura Siegemund jumped, danced, smiled and threw her racquet in the air. That was one mighty big celebration from a 37-year-old German who had made it to the fourth round of the women's singles event at Wimbledon for the first time. Germany's Laura Siegemund celebrates after winning against US' Madison Keys at Wimbledon. (AFP) With that 6-3, 6-3 win over the reigning Australian Open champion and world No.8 Madison Keys, world No.104 Siegemund had beaten another seeded player. This was the biggest upset of the day as the draw at Wimbledon continues to open up. Four of the top 5 and six of the top 10 have now made early exits from the All England Club in what has been an astonishing edition of the Grand Slam this year. Seeded sixth, Keys would have been in with a good chance to go deep in the tournament. She had proven her grit in the opening three-set match against Elena-Gabriela Ruse, followed by a better showing against Olga Danilovic. But the 30-year-old was error prone on Friday against Siegemund – Keys committed 31 unforced errors to the German's 11. A win would have put Keys in the fourth round against Lucky Loser Solana Sierra of Argentina. But instead, there will now be at least one unseeded player in the top half of the draw in the women's singles quarter-final. Keys's was the only defeat suffered by a seed at the hands of an unseeded player in the women's draw at time of writing. However, 13th seed Amanda Anisimova was given a scare by world No.110 Dalma Galfi. The American did eventually win 6-3, 5-7, 6-3. In the men's singles event on Friday, fifth seed Taylor Fritz had to battle it out in four sets against Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, eventually winning 6-4, 6-3, 6-7(5), 6-1. Hungarian Marton Fucsovics beat veteran French player Gael Monfils 6-4, 1-6, 4-6, 7-6(5), 6-4, while 14th seed Andrey Rublev was clinical in his 7-5, 6-2, 6-3 win over Adrian Mannarino. The day started well for the home players on Court No.1. Sonay Kartal got the better of French player Diane Parry 6-4, 6-2 followed by former Wimbledon semi-finalist Cameron Norrie's 7-6(5), 6-4, 6-3 win over Italian Mattia Bellucci. Play on Saturday could possibly throw up a few more upsets, especially since most players have struggled to transition from the clay court season to the grass swing. Former world No.1s Iga Swiatek and Novak Djokovic will be in action against Danielle Collins and Miomir Kecmanovic on Centre Court, where Jannik Sinner will begin proceedings against Spaniard Pedro Martinez. On Court No.1 though, defending women's champion Barbora Krejcikova, the 17th seed, will have a tough match against 10th seed Emma Navarro of USA.

He returned to complete an 18-minute service game and then accelerated to wrap up the eases into fourth roundRussia's Andrey Rublev was clinical in his 7-5, 6-2, 6-3 victory over Frenchman Adrian Mannarino. The seventh seed dominated the baseline exchanges and converted five break points while giving Mannarino very little room to who reached the quarter-finals at Wimbledon last year, has now won four of his five meetings against the Frenchman. He continues to quietly advance through the draw with minimal and Osaka bow out as women's draw unravelsThe women's singles competition saw yet more upheaval as sixth seed Madison Keys was comprehensively beaten 6-3, 6-3 by Germany's Laura Siegemund on Court Two. The American was plagued by inconsistency, racking up 31 unforced errors and four double faults.

The four-time Grand Slam champion was aiming to reach the last 16 at the All England Club for the first time, but struggled to maintain her level as the match wore on. Since winning the Australian Open in 2021, Osaka has failed to reach the fourth round at any major in her last 12 27-year-old, who returned to the tour earlier this year following the birth of her daughter, cut a dejected figure afterwards.
