More rain delays at Wimbledon

AS more rain fell in London on Wednesday, Wimbledon officials conceded the delays could hit the tournament’s already tight schedule.

87 matches are need to be completed on day three, with designated start times already put back from the 11am start to 12.30pm.

The delays on outside open courts will not affect Centre Court or Court No.1.
