Emma Raducanu could overcome Aryna Sabalenka as they face off at Wimbledon
Wimbledon 2025 day five sees Raducanu vs Sabalenka on Centre Court with Emma Raducanu coming off the back of her self-proclaimed best ever performance at the Championships Emma Raducanu will walk out on Centre Court later today with a Wimbledon crowd behind her when she faces world number one Aryna Sabalenka. The Brit faces the championship favourite and will be looking to produce something similar to what we saw in the last round. The 22-year-old produced her best ever performance - according to herself - when she beat Marketa Vondrousova on day three which shined a light on a difficult day for British tennis at SW19. After beating the 2023 champion in straight sets 6-3, 6-3, many would have left the famous lawn courts feeling they have just witnessed the promise of the young Brit which we have not seen since she famously won the US Open in 2021. Determined to continue on this feat, Raducanu appears to be relishing the challenge ahead of her. After dismissing claims she is unlucky in her draw to face the Belarusian tennis player, the former Grand Slam champion stated she "wants to play the best". The two players have met only once in their careers which happened last spring in Indian Wells in a match where Sabalenka won in straight sets on her favoured court but Raducanu still left her mark on the game despite the result. Home advantage may not be enough for her though, as Wimbledon crowds can be a funny one. While they love a good homegrown story such as Raducanu, they love the sport more. We have seen it in the past where the crowd show a lot of respect to opponents against any British players despite the vocal support for one of their own. Sabalenka has always left a solid impression on the Wimbledon crowd and if she finds her footing then Raducanu could soon feel like she needs to work harder, not smarter, to win over the crowd. This will be the battle of wits if Raducanu is to come out of this with a win over three sets. Raducanu cannot go through the motions of the match in order to feel control and gather momentum in the match - she needs to attack hard to stop Sabalenka's gameplan. The Belarusian is world number one for a reason, she is one of the most dominant WTA players on the tour right now with a powerful serve and a solid baseline game that is incredibly favourable on the lawn courts so Raducanu must respond in kind. Her performance last round shows the attacking approach worked with no double faults, 36 receiving points and four break points shows that approach works best in order for the Canadian-born Brit to secure back-to-back fourth round appearances at SW19.

An avid player of spot the ball competitions finally had his lucky day when his persistence paid off and he won a £200,000 Lamborghini. Matt Jones, from Wales, had just returned from the school run when a pair of presenters from the dream car giveaway firm BOTB knocked on his door and surprised him with the keys to a bright blue Lamborghini URUS SUV. The car alone is worth £208,000, but he was then led around to the boot to see the second part of his prize - a briefcase containing £50,000. Matt said he had been playing BOTB's spot the ball competitions for a long time, but he says he had a feeling this might be his lucky game. Matt had to guess the location of the ball to the nearest pixel - and he nailed it | BOTB He said: "I've been playing for so long, I just thought I've got to win this, I just believed in myself and kept going. "You get that feeling after a while, you know roughly where to go. I've been one pixel away once, and two pixels away twice, but this week most of it was just 'feel'. Matt confessed he doesn't really watch football, but he had watched a few videos to get a feel for the spot the ball competition. BOTB gives away dream cars every week, but the Lamborghini Urus SE is the most expensive spot the ball prize anyone has won. Presenter Christian Williams presented him with the keys to the brand new car | BOTB Including the £50,000 cash prize, his prize pot is worth £258,000 - but Matt says he is likely to take the cash alternative of £146,000 to help his brother out. He explained: "I'll probably take the money. My brother's got two children as well, I can give him some money to help them, give them a bit of a start in life. "It just feels like the right thing to do, help them out a bit." Matt's entry into the Lamborghini spot the ball competition cost £6.15, but new car prizes start at 90p.
