Wimbledon Live Updates: Humbert sets up round of 16 clash with Alcaraz, Murray out of mixed doubles

Frenchman Ugo Humbert defeated USA’s Brandon Nakashima in four sets to set up a round of 16 clash with reigning Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz on Saturday.

Ninth-seeded Australian Alex De Minaur also moved to the fourth round after receiving a walkover from French qualifier Lucas Pouille.

In what was his final campaign at the grass Major, Andy Murray, along with fellow Briton Emma Raducanu, was supposed to face Marcelo Arevalo of El Salvador and Zhang Shuai of China in the first round of mixed doubles on Court No. 1. However, Raducanu pulled out of the match due to stiffness in her right wrist. The British pair was replaced by American duo of Rajeev Ram and Katie Volynets.

Later in the day, seven-time champion and second seed Novak Djokovic takes on Australia’s Alexei Popyrin in third round.

Fourth-seeded German Alexander Zverev will be up against local favourite Cameron Norrie in his third-round fixture.

In women’s singles, top seed Iga Swiatek faces Yulia Putintseva while fourth seed Elena Rybakina takes on Danish wildcard Caroline Wozniacki in the third round.
