Lulu Sun vs Emma Raducanu - Wimbledon 2024: Live scores, order of play and updates as former US Open champion eyes second week at SW19 after pulling out of mixed doubles with Andy Murray

British summertime is temporarily on hiatus but the earlier rain has held off just now. The sun is firmly behind the clouds and there's the note of a chill in the air.

Both players are warming up now.

We'll be underway in a few minutes.

Lulu Sun is on the ride of her life, shining on what is her main draw debut at Wimbledon.

The 23-year-old, who is flying under the radar with less than 5,000 followers on Instagram, is into round four after wins over Miriam Bulgaru, Gabriela Knutson, Alexandra Eala, Qinwen Zheng, Yuliia Starodubtseva and Lin Zhu.

Sun was born in Te Anau, an incredibly small town on New Zealand's South Island, with a dream of making it as a star in tennis.

'It's a very small town (with) practically more sheep and deer than people!' Sun explained this week.

The trilingual No 123-seed, who has guaranteed herself £226,000 in prize money whatever happens now (her career prize money to date was £245,000), is hoping to upset the favourite Raducanu.

Emma Raducanu knows all too well the potential of qualifiers having the tournament of their lives.

Raducanu famously became the first qualifier to win a grand slam title in New York in 2021, and she will be very wary of Sun’s potential to cause another shock.

The Wimbledon crowd has given the British hope a warm welcome as she steps out on Centre Court.

The court is still filling up as fans start to take their seats.

Fans have been keeping an eye on Raducanu’s right wrist after she was forced to unexpectedly drop out of her mixed doubles match with Andy Murray yesterday due to ‘stiffness’.

It was due to be Murray’s final match at Wimbledon after he had to withdraw from the gentlemen’s singles due to injury and lost with his brother Jamie in the men’s doubles on Thursday.

Despite her sore wrist, Raducanu was on Wimbledon's practice courts on Saturday afternoon and was pictured again today warming up.

Some fans have taken to social media to mock Raducanu, with some claiming her wrist has 'magically healed'.

But how will the injury cope over the course of the match?

Hello and welcome to Centre Court, where we are poised and ready for the British hope Emma Raducanu to step onto the hallowed turf in just a few minutes time for her last-16 match in the women's singles event against Zealand qualifier Lulu Sun.

Raducanu is the last Briton standing in the singles draw after defeats for Cameron Norrie and Harriet Dart yesterday.

She will be taking to Centre Court following Carlos Alcaraz’s victory over Ugo Humbert.

Not long to go now!
