Even if it’s a rain coat rather than a dressing gown it’s still a bizarre choice of clothing given the unbroken sun overhead. But I digress. The six-times champion, who of course is still searching for that 24th grand slam title that would cement her name as the game’s greatest, is up against Karolina Muchova, of whom there is, erm, much to like. The 23-year-old Czech is rising up the rankings, currently at 44 having started the year at 144, and reached the Wimbledon quarter-finals last month.
Here comes Serena. After two night matches, it’s her first taste of the day session this year. But she seems to have forgotten it’s not nearly bedtime because she’s wearing what looks a bit like a black dressing gown over her purple outfit.
