Wimbledon 2025 order of play: Day nine schedule including Carlos Alcaraz, Cam Norrie and Aryna Sabalenka
The second Tuesday at Wimbledon brings the arrival of the quarter-finals, where back-to-back champion Carlos Alcaraz takes on home hopeful Cam Norrie. After Alcaraz saw off a spirited Andrey Rublev on Sunday, fighting from a set down to win in four, the 2023 and 2024 champion set up a mouthwatering showdown. It will be a clash with Britain's Norrie – the last home player standing – who overcame Nicolas Jarry in five nail-biting sets on Sunday. Norrie in fact had a two-set lead before Jarry fought back, but the Briton eventually downed the big-serving Chilean to reach his second Wimbledon quarter-final. Also on Tuesday, women's world No 1 Aryna Sabalenka aims to build on wins over Emma Raducanu and Elise Mertens, as she plays Laura Siegemund on Centre Court.
