Wimbledon 2016: Time, TV schedule, live streaming for Sunday’s matches

Serena Williams will be among those in action on Wimbledon’s middle Sunday.

Susan Mullane-USA TODAY Sports

The middle Sunday of Wimbledon is a rest day -- if all goes as planned in the preceding days. But that is not the case this time around, as the day will be used to play catch-up due to the several rain delays throughout the tournament.

Play should be entering the Round of 16, but there are still several third-round matches that need to conclude, and they’ll do so on Sunday. That means Serena Williams, the women’s top seed, will see the court against Annika Beck, another unseeded opponent for her third-round match. Sunday’s matches will be broadcast on ESPN2, beginning at 6:30 a.m. ET, and via live stream at WatchESPN.

Williams is heavily favored to win her 22nd Grand Slam title, which would tie her with Steffi Graf for most of any woman in the Open Era. She is especially favored since Garbine Muguruza was eliminated in the second round. Muguruza beat Williams in the finals of the French Open just a few weeks ago, but struggled in both her matches at Wimbledon (and lost her grass court tune-up match prior to the tournament).

But a top seed on the men’s side won’t be in action, as Novak Djokovic was upset at the hands of American Sam Querrey on Saturday. Djokovic trailed Querrey down two sets on Friday when the match was delayed by rain, and the two suffered multiple delays on Saturday before Querrey took a fourth-set tiebreak after dropping the third set. Djokovic is out in the third round, the first time he’s been out before the quarterfinals in a Grand Slam since 2009.

On the men’s side, only two “new” matches will be played, with No. 10 Tomas Berdych taking on No. 24 Alexander Zverev and No. 31 Joao Sousa facing Jiri Vesely. But four other matches have to finish, including a showdown between No. 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and No. 18 John Isner. Richard Gasquet, Nick Kyrgios and Feliciano Lopez are also involved in in-progress matches.

Juan Martin Del Potro, the unseeded winner of the 2009 US Open, has a match to finish against No. 32 Lucas Pouille. Del Potro shocked the world when he upset No. 4 seed Stan Wawrinka in his second round match and is trying to unset Pouille. He is trailing Pouille two sets to one going into Sunday, however.

On the women’s side, No. 6 Roberta Vinci will face No. 27 Coco Vandeweghe, and another five seeded women will see the court on top of that. Timea Bacsinszky, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Sloane Stephens are all set to play on Sunday.

The matches will begin at 6:30 a.m. ET in the United States and will be broadcast on ESPN. Live streams of all courts will be available at WatchESPN.
