Cameron Norrie vs Nicolas Jarry: Score and latest Wimbledon updates
'It's a great match to play, I'm excited for it,' said Norrie. 'I think he's one of the most dangerous players on the tour when he's confident, and he is confident. He beat Holger in a crazy match. I think he looks like a guy with nothing to lose. He's so dangerous. He's got one of the best serves on tour. I think he likes the grass a lot. I'm going to have to really raise my level from how I played [in round three].'

Wimbledon's line-calling technology fails again
Wimbledon suffered another embarrassing episode when the electronic line calling system malfunctioned in Taylor Fritz's quarter-final win over Karen Khachanov. Tournament organizers were forced to apologize on Sunday when the Hawk-Eye technology was accidentally switched off for one game in the fourth-round tie between Britain's Sonay Kartal and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. And All England Club chiefs were left red-faced again on Tuesday as 'fault' was erroneously called midway through a Fritz and Khachanov rally in the first game of the fourth set. Swedish umpire Louise Azemar-Engzell shouted 'stop' and halted the play, before making a phone call to colleagues from her chair. She then told the audience: 'Ladies and gentlemen, we will replay the last point due to a malfunction. The system is now working.' That prompted boos from the No 1 Court crowd, although neither player held the upper hand in the point and they replayed without protest. Fritz lost the point and went on to have his serve broken, but he recovered in the set to win the tie-break and seal a 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 win. While it is not known what caused the malfunction on No 1 Court, it was another uncomfortable episode for the All England Club, who gave their full backing to the electronic line calling system on Monday. A 'thorough review' of the Kartal incident identified that a Hawk-Eye operator had accidentally switched off the ball-tracking technology by unticking a box. An All England Club spokesperson said on Monday: 'Our live ELC system relies on the cameras and technology working in harmony with the operators and review officials. 'We have conducted a thorough review of our systems and processes. What is clear is that the ball-tracking technology has been working optimally during The Championships. 'In this instance, there was a human error which deactivated the ball tracking cameras on part of the server's side of the court. Wimbledon claimed the error occurred because a ballboy was still running across the court when Fritz went to serve. The electronic line calling system does not work when more than two people are on the court for a singles match. A spokesperson said: 'The player's service motion began while the BBG was still crossing the net and therefore the system didn't recognize the start of the point. As such the Chair Umpire instructed the point be replayed.' Khachanov said: 'I'm more for line umpires, to be honest. The electronic line calls have to be very precise and no mistakes, but we've seen a couple. 'That's questionable why this is happening. Is it just like the error of the machine or what's the reason? 'Today there were a few calls that were very questionable if it's really touching the line or not. At the same time during one point, the machine called it just out during the rally. Sometimes it's scary to let machine do what they want. 'What can I do? I can argue, or I can be angry on it or just continue playing. It's not in my power. It's already happened. 'I need to kind of accept it, and that's it. It was not kind of super important point. 'If it would happen on a break point or deuce or maybe tiebreaker, you can get more mad.'

How Thiago Silva still leads from the front for Fluminense at 40 as star prepares to face former side Chelsea in Club World Cup semi-final - with his vocal wife ready to cheer from the sidelines
As Thiago Silva addressed the Chelsea fans in April 2024 to inform them that he would be leaving Stamford Bridge, he broke down in tears while explaining his 'indescribable love' for the Blues. The moment his farewell video was posted on social media was the moment that many a football fan thought his career at the top of the sport was over at the age of 39, and he was heading for retirement. Well, so it seemed. Here we are, just over a year on, and Silva is preparing to lead Fluminense into battle against his former side as they clash in the Club World Cup semi-final on Tuesday. The now 40-year-old's flip-flops are nowhere to be seen. It is clear that relaxing on the sand in the sunshine is the last thing on Silva's mind; he is as driven as ever for success. Silva is the kingpin of a Fluminense side, their commander-in-chief who has helped the Brazilian outfit reach the last four. The emotion we saw released with every tackle, every win, every trophy, when he donned the blue of Chelsea for four years is as apparent as ever. The moment the final whistle blew following his side's win over Al-Hilal in the quarter-final, the Brazilian centre-back simply dropped to his knees and pointed to the sky before his team-mates swarmed him with love. They know that without Silva, they wouldn't be in the semi-finals. This means everything to him; Fluminense is his club, and he wants to guide them to history. No pina coladas at a beach bar, they can wait a few more years. Everywhere Silva has played, he has been loved, and it's no different at Fluminense. They don't just fight for the badge or themselves; they fight for him. The veteran makes them want to run through a brick wall to secure silverware. It's easy to see why. A speech by Silva in the dressing room prior to his side's magical victory over Champions League finalists Inter Milan in the round of 16 has been posted to social media, and the words spoken are enough to inspire even the most apathetic of players. 'Don't wait until after the game to say what you could have done, no,' as he fought back the tears in a passionate address. 'My stepfather was the person who made me become Thiago Silva. He was sick, and I didn't know how serious the illness was. 'I went back to the national team and the World Cup ended the way it ended. He was hospitalised and I went back to Paris. I started the pre-season and in one of my first matches my wife called me and said "Your father passed away." 'What am I trying to say with this? I didn't go to see him at the hospital because I thought he was going to be fine. Don't leave for later what you can do now, because there might not be time. 'Seize the moment, enjoy it, but enjoy it with responsibility. Having said that, we need to finish the match with 11 players. Don't take this to an unfair place. Be fair but compete. Compete, dammit. We all need to compete, together.' No wonder Fluminense are in the club world cup semi final Listen to how powerful this message is from Thiago Silva — Janty (@CFC_Janty) July 4, 2025 Of course, we all know what happened next. The Brazilians shocked the world by netting twice without reply to dump out one of the tournament favourites. The speech had worked. It's not just off the pitch Silva inspires either. Fluminense manager Gaucho has described him as the team's 'coach on the pitch'. He was not always the leader that we see bellowing instructions on the pitch these days. In fact, during his early years, he would be the introverted 'kid in the corner'. It's hard to imagine, but it's true, and Silva's leadership only became a trait when he started putting on football boots. From then on, he never looked back. 'I'm a shy person and I struggle to make friends,' said Silva in FIFA's 'Captain's' documentary back in 2022. 'My childhood friends called me mouse because I would hardly leave the house. 'Over time, football became more important in my life and because of football I managed to put my shyness to one side. 'That's how I became Thiago Silva. That's when I started thinking "maybe I can go a little further". I dreamed of playing in full stadiums and as your passion for something grows you go in search of your dreams.' A 'mouse' he is no more. Thiago's wife, Isabelle da Silva, has since revealed that friends these days see him in a very different light compared to those with whom he grew up. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Isago Silva (@ Thiago Silva's wife Isabelle has been at every single one of his games at the tournament Belle has always been in the stands to celebrate the highs and lows of Thiago's football career, including when he won the old version of the Club World Cup with the Blues in 2021 She said: 'People see him as the captain wherever he goes, even his friends call him because they see the leadership in him. Thiago has the personality of a leader, and on the pitch he's a monster.' Belle is her husband's biggest fan; she doesn't miss a single kick. The 38-year-old has been in the stands for every single one of his games at the Club World Cup, and it is doubtful that she sat there with her lips sealed shut. Thiago's vocal confidence may have developed once he met Isabelle back in 2004, just two years into his professional career. It's fair to say she has never been one to stay quiet. Just last year, she made her feelings clear about the then-Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino, implying that he should be sacked in a social media post while Silva was still captain of the club. In February 2024, after Chelsea lost 4-2 to Wolves at Stamford Bridge, she wrote: 'It's time for change. If you wait any longer it will be too late.' That is just one of many tirades that Silva's biggest fan, and the mother of his two children, has been on. However, ever since the family's move back to Brazil, she has seemingly stopped tapping her thumbs on Twitter (now know as X) quite so much. Instead, she sticks to Instagram. Expect plenty of content on there on Tuesday night, especially if Fluminense's fairytale run continues. For Silva, though, another mammoth match awaits. Fluminense are just one step away from the Club World Cup final, and two away from immortality. Silva's former team-mate Marc Cucurella said that the former Brazil captain texted him before Fluminense even qualified for the last four The reunion with Chelsea is clearly something that has been on his mind for some time, longer than maybe many would suspect. 'He is a legend of football and showed that by playing for a lot of big clubs,' said Marc Cucurella, his former team-mate at Chelsea. 'He texted me before the game and said: "Let's go, hopefully we can see you in a few days' time." So after the game I texted him and said: "Let's go!"' It says everything about the Brazilian that he was willing to text a former colleague like that before even knowing if they would come up against each other. Should Fluminense shock the world again, the Champions League winners could very much be their opponents in the final. But first, they just have the simple task of getting past record five-time winners of the competition, Real Madrid.

Aryna Sabalenka avoids major shock with fightback win over Laura Siegemund
Top seed and title favourite Aryna Sabalenka survived an almighty scare against world number 104 Laura Siegemund before reaching the Wimbledon semi-finals. Sabalenka, the runaway world number one and a three-time grand slam champion, had not dropped a set on her way to the quarter-finals. Advertisement But 37-year-old Siegemund, who had never previously been beyond the second round, almost produced one of the all-time Centre Court shocks after taking the first set and then twice leading by a break in the decider. Comeback complete 🙌 World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka defeats Laura Siegemund 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 to reach her third #Wimbledon semi-final. — Wimbledon (@Wimbledon) July 8, 2025 However, Sabalenka kept her nerve and her emotions in check as she dug in for a 4-6 6-2 6-4 victory in just under three hours. 'I need some time to cool down and recover, she pushed me so much,' said Sabalenka. 'After the first set I was looking at my box and saying 'book the tickets, we're out of this place'.' Advertisement German women aged 37 have been the great disruptors of the English summer, with Tatiana Maria claiming a surprise win at Queen's Club before Siegemund's unlikely run here. Laura Siegemund was a break up in the decider (Ben Whitley/PA) A renowned doubles player, her game is built around slices, angles, drop shots and being nimble on her feet. But the two clubbing backhand winners with which she sealed two breaks of serve in the opening three games were straight from the Sabalenka playbook. It was a drop shot which brought up another break point, which was secured when an increasingly glum-looking Sabalenka went long, and when the Belarusian dumped a forehand into the net for the umpteenth time she found herself a set down for the first time this fortnight. Advertisement Sabalenka disappeared off court at the changeover, and when play resumed she moved a break up, only for Siegemund to claw it straight back. Siegemund was beginning to deploy the dark arts she has built a reputation for, taking an age between points as Sabalenka waited to serve. It was clearly irritating the 27-year-old, but she took her frustration out on the ball with some trademark power hitting eventually levelling the match – the first set Siegemund had dropped this Championships. Yet the underdog bit back in the deciding set, and when she broke for 4-3 she was two games away from a seismic shock. Advertisement However, Sabalenka broke back immediately and then roared with delight after putting away a smash on match point to reach the semi-finals for the 10th time in the last 11 grand slams.
