Wimbledon Day 6 - Swiatek swept aside, Djokovic finds a way, Shelton's doing it for the Big Dog

More rain at Wimbledon on Day 7 and the showers swept aside world number 1, Iga Swiatek, as she fell to unseeded Yulia Putinseva in three sets. We hear from her in press about whether she will consider playing a warm up tournament next year. Djokovic survived another grand slam four set tussle, this time against Alexi Popyrin in a repeat of their Australian Open clash. Djokovic seems to be improving as the tournament progresses but the knee sleeve remains on and GREY. Elsewhere Rybakina threw down a warning to the draw as she blitzed Dane Caroline Wozniacki to the loss of just 1 game and Jelena Ostapenko wasn't much more charitable when it came to her third round encounter with Pera. Shelton, Rune and Medevdev won their rain delayed matches with Shelton emulating his father's achievement and Medevdev tells us he was lucky to get it done as quickly as he did, even though it did take 2 days and 3 delays!
