Wimbledon Day 12: Order of Play

It is ladies’ final day at Wimbledon as Venus Williams takes on Garbine Muguruza.

Williams will become the oldest Grand Slam winner in the open era if she wins. The five-time champion has not won the tournament since 2008.

Muguruza reached the final in 2015 but lost to Serena. She put world number one Angelique Kerber out in Round 3 and will add her second Grand Slam title with a win after winning the French Open last year.

The men’s doubles final follows the ladies on Centre Court as fourth seeds Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo meet 16th seeds Mate Pavic and Oliver Marach.

The ladies’ doubles final is on third with ninth seeds Hao-Ching Chan and Monica Niculescu coming up against second seeds Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina.

Senior and junior tennis dominates the rest of the courts. British fans feeling particularly nostalgic can catch Jamie Baker and Colin Fleming’s match against Greg Rusedski and Fabrice Santoro.
