There have already been instant classic early-round matches at Wimbledon 2023.
Two Friday men’s tennis matches could be added to the list.
Here they are:
1. Stefanos Tsitsipas Vs. Andy Murray – Second Round
This match was suspended on Thursday night because it could not be finished before the 11:00 PM curfew.
Murray is the fan-favorite and is leading two sets to one.

There was a scary moment when he slipped and went down.
However, he got up and won the set on the next point.

Tsitsipas had a marathon first-round match against Dominic Thiem and is attempting to play doubles with his brother Petros and mixed doubles with Paula Badosa.
These long multi-day matches are not helping his cause.
2. Stan Wawrinka Vs. Novak Djokovic – Third Round
Stan the Man is enjoying his return to tennis.
He was out with injuries for a prolonged period, and the 38-year-old knows he is at the tail end of his career.
Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam the 3-time Grand Slam Champion Wawrinka has not won.
The path to the final takes a very challenging turn on Friday when he takes on Novak Djokovic.
