Wimbledon 2023 tennis matches have consisted of players playing different rounds on the same day because of the rain early in the week.
Two American women lost in the second round on Thursday.
They are Danielle Collins and Sloane Stephens.
Belinda Bencic comes back from a set and break down to beat Danielle Collins 3-6, 6-4, 7-6(10-2) and reach the 3rd round at #Wimbledon.
Played a great tiebreak to escape.

Jessica Pegula, the fourth-seed and highest-ranked American woman had a good day at the office on Thursday.
She breezed through her match against Spaniard Cristina Busca in straight sets, 6-4, 6-1.
Pegula needs easy matches and limited court time because she competes in singles, ladies’ doubles, and mixed doubles.
2. Sofia Kenin
Sofia Kenin, after defeating Coco Gauff in the first round, defeated Xinyu Wang of China in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3.

2. Madison Brengle
33-year-old Madison Brengle has never advanced past the third round at Wimbledon.
Very used to watching Madison Brengle be the counter puncher, so lots of fun to watch her ripping winners at will off both wings late in this unique grass court experience.#Wimbledon pic.twitter.com/z5wOIRlSM9
