Britain’s Katie Boulter takes on defending Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina in the match of the day on Centre Court on Saturday.

Boulter is carrying Britian’s hopes in the singles after Andy Murray, Cameron Norrie and Liam Broady were all knocked out in the men’s draw on Tuesday.

Rybakina won her first grand slam title when the 24-year-old beat Ons Jabeur in last year’s Wimbledon final and is now ranked third in the world as she looks to defend her crown.

“I think it’s a super great opportunity for me,” Boulter said. “I’ve got nothing to lose. She’s clearly the defending champion for a reason.

“I’m going to have a swing and go for it. I’ve got a lot of tennis behind me. It’s time for me to test my skills against an incredible champion.” Here’s everything you need to know.
