Wimbledon traditions: Updating the score boards
Follow live coverage from day three at SW19 as Carlos Alcaraz and Frances Tiafoe look to avoid being the next stars dumped out of the tournament Getty Images Play is well underway after rain this morning delayed the start of the second round on day three of the 2025 Wimbledon Championships. Plenty of big names are desperate to avoid upsets in a wide-open singles draw today, with Americans Frances Tiafoe (12) trailing on court, plus Carlos Alcaraz (2) and Taylor Fritz (5) on later at SW19. Yesterday, Coco Gauff (2), Jessica Pegula (3), Zheng Qinwen (5) and Alexander Zverev (3) were among the stars to exit at the first hurdle, though American Madison Keys (6) progressed today. Watch: BBC (UK), ESPN (U.S.); Get involved: live@ GO FURTHER Wimbledon recap: Grand Slam record as seeds fall across the draws One thing I have noticed — and really love — when walking around Wimbledon is the number of scoreboards and upcoming fixture boards that require physical updating. It's a classy touch and speaks to the tradition and history of the site. They look so much nicer than electronic score boards, too. There's no mistaking where you are when you see the purple and green background on those scores, either. This just about covers it for many of yesterday's eliminated seeds... Frustration, bewilderment and a good dose of dejection. Wimbledon can be cruel even to the most talented of players. Coco Gauff (2) was one of those to fall short. Getty Images A very good morning to you from a slightly damp Wimbledon. The rain covers are on the outside courts and the street sellers on the walk down from Southfields tube station has swapped their Panama hats for ponchos and umbrellas on their stalls. But everyone has smiles on their faces and a determination to have a good time and see some great tennis regardless. Stick with us and we'll bring you all the action — weather related or sporting — throughout the morning. Getty Images An hour until play gets underway here at SW19. The incomparable Nancy Froston with you very shortly. Getty Images There is some serious history behind the trophies received by the two Wimbledon singles champions. The men's singles trophy was first presented in 1887 — cup-shaped and standing 18 inches high, with a diameter of 7.5 inches. A for the women's singles trophy, that was first presented a year earlier — dish-shaped with a mythological theme, it is known as the Rosewater Dish or Venus Rosewater Dish. The winner of both will receive a three-quarter size replica bearing the names of all past champions. Getty Images This year at Wimbledon the singles champions take home a pretty tasty prize pot. Both the men's and women's singles champion will win an equal prize pot of £3million each. That would set up the summer pretty nicely… Court 4 Wang Xinyu (CHN) / Zheng Saisai (CHN) vs. Gabriela Dabrowski (CAN) / Erin Routliffe (NZL) [2] Daniel Evans (GBR) / Henry Searle (GBR) vs. Harri Heliovaara (FIN) / Henry Patten (GBR) [2] Jodie Burrage (GBR) / Sonay Kartal (GBR) vs. Jessica Bouzas Maneiro (ESP) / Yvonne Cavalle-Reimers (ESP) Camila Osorio (COL) / Alycia Parks (USA) vs. Alicia Barnett (GBR) / Eden Silva (GBR) Court 5 Yuki Bhambri (IND) / Robert Galloway (USA) [16] vs. Romain Arneodo (MON) / Manuel Guinard (FRA) Miomir Kecmanović (SRB) / Andreas Mies (GER) vs. Marcel Granollers (ESP) / Horacio Zeballos (ARG) [4] Tang Qianhui (CHN) / Zhu Lin (CHN) vs. Jiang Xinyu (CHN) / Wu Fang-hsien (TPE) [12] Court 6 Rafael Matos (BRA) / Marcelo Melo (BRA) vs. Ivan Dodig (CRO) / Orlando Luz (BRA) Fernando Romboli (BRA) / John-Patrick Smith (AUS) vs. Mackenzie McDonald (USA) / Alex Michelsen (USA) Angelica Moratelli (ITA) / Sabrina Santamaria (USA) vs. Sorana Cîrstea (ROU) / Anna Kalinskaya Court 8 Yulia Putintseva (KAZ) / Peyton Stearns (USA) vs. Chan Hao-ching (TPE) / Barbora Krejčíková (CZE) Tomáš Macháč (CZE) / Jakub Menšík (CZE) vs. Pedro Martínez (ESP) / Jaume Munar (ESP) David Goffin (BEL) / Alexandre Muller (FRA) vs. Nicolas Barrientos (COL) / Rithvik Choudary Bollipalli (IND) Nadiia Kichenok (UKR) / Yuliia Starodubtseva (UKR) vs. Ekaterina Alexandrova / Zhang Shuai (CHN) [14] Court 9 Ariel Behar (URU) / Joran Vliegen (BEL) vs. Simone Bolelli (ITA) / Andrea Vavassori (ITA) [7] Anna Blinkova / Yuan Yue (CHN) vs. Nicole Melichar-Martinez (USA) / Liudmila Samsonova [15] Jakob Schnaitter (GER) / Mark Wallner (GER) vs. Sebastian Baez (ARG) / Francisco Comesana (ARG) Shuko Aoyama (JPN) / Ena Shibahara (JPN) vs. Magda Linette (POL) / Bernarda Pera (USA) Court 10 Marta Kostyuk (UKR) / Elena-Gabriela Ruse (ROU) vs. Anastasija Sevastova (LAT) / Yanina Wickmayer (BEL) Theo Arribage (FRA) / Patrik Trhac (USA) vs. Quentin Halys (FRA) / Nicolas Mahut (FRA) Damir Džumhur (BIH) / Skander Mansouri (TUN) vs. Maximo Gonzalez (ARG) / Andres Molteni (ARG) [12] Aleksandar Kovacevic (USA) / Learner Tien (USA) vs. Balaji (IND) / Miguel Reyes-Varela (MEX) Court 11 Kimberly Birrell (AUS) / Maya Joint (AUS) vs. Ulrikke Eikeri (NOR) / Makoto Ninomiya (JPN) Irina Khromacheva / Fanny Stollar (HUN) [13] vs. Aleksandra Krunić (SRB) / Suzan Lamens (NED) Tomas Martin Etcheverry (ARG) / Camilo Ugo Carabelli (ARG) vs. Hendrik Jebens (GER) / Albano Olivetti (FRA) Rinky Hijikata (AUS) / David Pel (NED) vs. André Göransson (SWE) / Sem Verbeek (NED) [14] Court 14 Leylah Fernandez (CAN) [29] vs. Laura Siegemund (GER) Kevin Krawietz (GER) / Tim Pütz (GER) [3] vs. Rohan Bopanna (IND) / Sander Gille (BEL) Eva Lys (GER) vs. Linda Nosková (CZE) [30] Kamil Majchrzak (POL) vs. Ethan Quinn (USA) Court 15 Nicolas Jarry (CHI) vs. Learner Tien (USA) Brandon Nakashima (USA) [29] vs. Yunchaokete Bu (CHN) T/F 6/4 4/6 7/6(1) 0/0 Beatriz Haddad Maia (BRA) [21] vs. Dalma Gálfi (HUN) Jordan Thompson (AUS) vs. Benjamin Bonzi (FRA) Hailey Baptiste (USA) / Caty McNally (USA) vs. Beatriz Haddad Maia (BRA) / Laura Siegemund (GER) [11] Court 16 Adrian Mannarino (FRA) vs. Valentin Royer (FRA) McCartney Kessler (USA) / Clara Tauson (DEN) vs. Harriet Dart (GBR) / Maia Lumsden (GBR) Ashlyn Krueger (USA) [31] vs. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova Caroline Dolehide (USA) / Sofia Kenin (USA) [16] vs. Bibiane Schoofs (NED) / Dayana Yastremska (UKR) Court 17 Marcelo Arévalo (ESA) / Mate Pavić (CRO) [1] vs. Roberto Carballés Baena (ESP) / Laslo Djere (SRB) Cristina Bucşa (ESP) vs. Donna Vekić (CRO) [22] Elise Mertens (BEL) [24] vs. Ann Li (USA) Cristian Garín (CHI) vs Arthur Rinderknech (FRA) Centre Court Aryna Sabalenka [1] vs. Marie Bouzková (CZE) Oliver Tarvet (GBR) vs. Carlos Alcaraz (ESP) [2] Emma Raducanu (GBR) vs. Markéta Vondroušová (CZE) No. 1 COURT Cameron Norrie (GBR) vs. Frances Tiafoe (USA) [12] Katie Boulter (GBR) vs. Solana Sierra (ARG) Taylor Fritz (USA) [5] vs. Gabriel Diallo (CAN) No. 2 COURT Olga Danilović (SRB) vs. Madison Keys (USA) [6] Nuno Borges (POR) vs. Billy Harris (GBR) Naomi Osaka (JPN) vs. Kateřina Siniaková (CZE) Arthur Fery (GBR) vs. Luciano Darderi (ITA) No. 3 Court Viktoriya Tomova (BUL) vs. Sonay Kartal (GBR) Andrey Rublev [14] vs. Lloyd Harris (RSA) Jasmine Paolini (ITA) [4] vs. Kamilla Rakhimova Botic van de Zandschulp (NED) vs. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina (ESP) [26] Court 12 João Fonseca (BRA) vs. Jenson Brooksby (USA) Renata Zarazúa (MEX) vs. Amanda Anisimova (USA) [13] Jiří Lehečka (CZE) [23] vs. Mattia Bellucci (ITA) Aliaksandra Sasnovich vs. Elina Svitolina (UKR) [14] Court 18 Shintaro Mochizuki (JPN) vs. Karen Khachanov [17] Diana Shnaider [12] vs. Diane Parry (FRA) Felix Auger-Aliassime (CAN) [25] vs. Jan-Lennard Struff (GER) Emily Appleton (GBR) / Heather Watson (GBR) vs. Mirra Andreeva / Diana Shnaider [5] We'd love to hear from you ahead of the 2025 Championships getting underway in little more than an hour.

All along Wimbledon Park Road there are pop-ups selling the hats you will see fill up Centre Court for the next two weeks. Soccer legend David Beckham and former England manager Gareth Southgate were both spotted wearing them in the Royal Box as Carlos Alcaraz overcame Fabio Fognini on Monday afternoon. This man was selling them for £20 per hat. That's roughly $28. Not a bad business to be in over the next two weeks.

Teen rescued on live TV watched as sand vanished
A 13-year-old boy rescued live on television after being stranded by the tide has told how he watched the sand disappear as he waited for help to arrive. Kaan was at Wells-next-the-Sea, in Norfolk, on Friday enjoying the hot weather with his friends and mum. BBC Look East cameras captured the moment he became stranded by the tide and were still rolling when a RNLI crew carried out the rescue. Kaan, who had swam out to a sandbar after being carried by the tide, said: "I didn't realise how far out I was until I saw the BBC News. I didn't realise how far out and scary it actually was." BBC journalist Debbie Tubby had been reporting from the beach as cameras saw Kaan stranded on the sand bar shortly after the regional news programme started airing at 18:30 BST. Boy's sea rescue captured on live TV report After continuing with other reports, the programme then returned to Tubby less than 10 minutes later. Footage showed the sand covered by water, with the boy being helped by the RNLI crew. The BBC was broadcasting from the beach after 40 people had been cut off by the tide the previous weekend. Alongside friends, Kaan had been playing in the water until he put his feet down and realised he could no longer touch the ground. He said: "It's really scary and worrying... It could really end up tragic and dangerous. "I was very thankful and very pleased that they [RNLI] came. They are great at their job. They are wonderful people." Watching on, his mother, Sam, had entered the water up to knee-height but could not go any further due to the power of the tide. She said: "I felt confident in the fact I could see them [RNLI] coming down the ramp, and I knew they were on their way." Once her son was rescued, she said the feeling of relief turned to slight embarrassment. "It's worse when you're from the area that these things happen... Now it's happened to us, it's made me even more aware of it. "If you're a tourist here on holiday, it makes it even worse," she said. "We are lucky to have [the RNLI] just there, where it is a prime position for things happening, or even walkers who get cut off." Follow Norfolk news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.
