Your support makes all the difference.World No 1 Rafael Nadal, into the third round for the first time since 2011, will be hoping for an easier ride on the Wimbledon grass after two tough rounds when he meets Mikhail Kukushkin on Saturday.
He joins three other former Wimbledon champions - Roger Federer, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova - bidding for a place in Monday's fourth round.
Organisers will be crossing their fingers that the weather forecasters will be proved wrong again. Despite cloudy skies, the rain expected to disrupt Friday's play did not materialise, but showers are expected on Saturday.
