Today’s Wimbledon scores as Andy Murray comeback resumes

Andy Murray and Stefanos Tsitsipas began a potentially epic encounter on day four at Wimbledon

Andy Murray resumes his Wimbledon match against Stefanos Tsitsipas today after the 36-year-old produced a stunning comeback under the lights on Centre Court before the contest was suspended due to the 11pm curfew last night.

The two-time Wimbledon champion was staring at an early elimination as an inspired Tsitsipas took the opening set on a tiebreak, but Murray roared back to win the crucial second-set decider.

With the momentum behind him, Murray broke the fifth seed early in the third and stood with three set points after finding a solid level behind his serve.

Despite slipping on set point and appearing to injure his groin, Murray was able to take the lead in the match as Tsitsipas fired long in what was a frenzied atmosphere under the lights.

The curfew was called at the end of the third set and Murray will resume on Friday afternoon with the 36-year-old just needing to win one more set to reach the third round. Follow live updates, scores and results from SW19 below.

There’s a chance for a second Tsitsipas break as Murray looks increasingly more tired at 15-30. The crowd responds were rapturous cheers to try and lift their favourite.

Murray misses another first serve but he manages to dictate the rally, coming up to the net and volleying a drop shot over the net to draw back level.

A wayward forehand from Tsitsipas is hooked wide to give the momentum back to Murray. He takes advantage and holds serve. This next game is going to be crucial.

Cameron Norrie 3-6, 6-3, 2-6, 6-7 (3-7) Christopher Eubanks

GAME, SET AND MATCH EUBANKS! It’s all over for Cameron Norrie – Eubanks wins four straight points after the changeover in the tiebreak and the British No 1’s Wimbledon dreams are over for another year.

A standing ovation for Eubanks from Court 1 – he played absolutely sublimely, the match of his life, and fully deserved the victory.

Norrie also gets clapped off but make no mistake, he’ll be disappointed with this loss.

Another round of new balls sees Tsitsipas yield a point with an error that lands in the net. The response – to no surprise – is an ace.

A blistering serve down the T is looped back by Murray but Tsitsipas has his pick on where to place the ball opens his forehand to go ahead.

Ace! Tsitsipas goes 40-15 up and Murray tries a backhand down the line which isn’t quite there and the game goes to the Greek.

Oof! A huge net cord goes the way of Eubanks when Norrie leads 2-0 in the tiebreak. It puts us back on serve and some big-hitting from both men moves us to 3-3 at the changeover

We’re headed to a fourth-set tiebreak over on Court 1. Norrie, who saved match point about 10 minutes ago, remember, has to win to take us to a decider. How are the nerves, Cam?

Despite missing out on another first serve, Murray goes ahead in the fifth game of the fifth set. He’s quickly up to 40-0 without too much trouble.

Hold to love but Murray won’t be happy with how many first serves he’s missing.

I didn’t think it was possible but the noise has gone up a notch when Murray wins a rally with an overhead smash. At 15-15, Tsitsipas injects some power when going down the line but Murray manages to hook a forehand back – but it drops wide!

Tsitsipas’ forehand fails him as he loads up a big shot and knocks it over the back. The Greek responds with an ace. 40-30.

Another ace gives him the game.

OH MY WORD! Cam Norrie is living unbelievably dangerously here. He finds himself MATCH POINT DOWN at 5-4 in the fourth set but digs in to somehow survive, followed by a roar of celebration.

He goes on to hold to move to 5-5 but the jeopardy is far from over.

Murray is on the back foot now. He’s only had one break point in the entire match so far and now needs another break to get back on level terms. Tsitsipas just needs to hold serve to win.

‘Come on Andy!’ is the shout from the crowd as he sets up for another service game. Murray faults and Tsitsipas unleashes on the second serve, Murray’s return is met with a drop shot and the Brit tanks his next shot into the net.

Tsitsipas takes control of the game as Murray drops one over the net. The Greek flies up the court and lobs Murray at the net, landing his effort in play and moving 0-30 in front. This is a chance.

Murray double faults. Tsitsipas has three break points.

He misses the first one and skews one over the back. He misses the second one thanks to a sliced backhand from Murray that Tsitsipas smokes wide.

Break! Murray belts a forehand into the net. Centre Court deflates and Tsitsipas takes the advantage in the fifth set.
