Day 5 of the 2023 Wimbledon will see the continuation of the second-round matches along with the start of the third-round duels.
After a couple of days of weather-induced havoc, things are slowly returning to normal. The scheduling nightmare has caused plenty of problems for players, especially those who wrapped up their first-round contests on Thursday.
Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic are on the opposite halves of the draw, but will be playing on the same day now. Both are scheduled to take to the court on Friday. While the World No. 1 will face Alexandre Muller, the defending champion will take on old rival Stan Wawrinka.
The top two players on the women's side, Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka, are also going to be in action. Ons Jabeur, last year's runner-up at the All England Club, is in the mix as well.
Matteo Berrettini, Alexander Zverev, along with Grand Slam champions Petra Kvitova and Bianca Andreescu, are some of the other well-known names in the fray on Friday.
On that note, here's a look at the schedule for Day 5 of Wimbledon:
