Karolina Pliskova was the final top-10 seed to be eliminated on Monday as she lost to Kiki Bertens in straight sets in one of the biggest shocks of the day.
That means the draw has opened up even more, with Serena Williams ominously creeping back to her best. The 25 seed faces Camila Giorgi second on Centre Court.

Andy Murray has confirmed that he intends to compete at the Washington Open after pulling out of Wimbledon on the eve of the Championships.
After an 11-month absence from the game, Murray made his return to the game at the Fever-Tree Championships at Queen’s Club last month. But after assessing his fitness ahead of Wimbledon, the former British No 1 deemed he was not ready for best-of-five-sets tennis.
Having spent the past fortnight training and working on his recovery, Murray now feels he'll be fit enough to compete at the Washington Open.
"My plan is to play in Washington, which starts three weeks yesterday," he said during a TV interview with the BBC. "So I will be here the next couple weeks practicing on hard courts then head to the states, maybe to Washington or Miami first for some practice before getting back to matches.
"There is always a chance you can re-injure yourself when you start competing again. I wasn't worried about re-injuring but if you put your body through the extreme schedule too quickly your body will react. I wanted to be in better shape before I put my body in that situation again."
