Frenchman Ugo Humbert defeated USA’s Brandon Nakashima in four sets to set up a round of 16 clash with reigning Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz on Saturday.

Ninth-seeded Australian Alex De Minaur also moved to the fourth round after receiving a walkover from French qualifier Lucas Pouille.

In what was his final campaign at the grass Major, Andy Murray, along with fellow Briton Emma Raducanu, was supposed to face Marcelo Arevalo of El Salvador and Zhang Shuai of China in the first round of mixed doubles on Court No. 1.
