Sam Stosur and Bernard Tomic will headline the Aussie contigent taking to the courts as part of a back-logged Wimbledon Day 6 schedule.
Our Aussie women’s and men’s No.1s – scheduled back-to-back on Centre Court – face difficult tasks as they attempt to progress through to the fourth round at the All England Club.
Stosur takes on 23rd seed Sabine Lisicki, a Wimbledon semifinalist in 2011 and quarterfinalist in 2009 and 2012, while Tomic battles No.9 seed Richard Gasquet, a semifinalist here in 2007.
Several Aussies will also take to the courts for doubles, mixed doubles and juniors action.
Watch Stosur and Tomic live from Wimbledon on 7TWO at 8.30pm on Saturday night (AEST).
