Murray fever returns to Wimbledon

Andy Murray [Images] once again fills the prime time viewing slot on Centre Court late on Saturday, while five-time women's champion Venus Williams [Images] will have revenge on her mind against Carla Suarez Navarro [Images].

World number three Murray plays fiery Serbian 30th seed Viktor Troicki, seen arguing with an umpire on Court 14 during his doubles match with German Christopher Kas on Friday. Murray has lost just seven games in their two previous meetings.

"Rest up tomorrow Viktor. Big (doubles) match on Monday," Kas joked as the pair left the court.

Before Murray-mania reaches fever pitch, Williams will take to the main show court against Spaniard Suarez Navarro, who beat the prolific American champion in the second round en route to the Australian Open [Images] quarter-finals this year.

At five feet four, and weighing only 62 kgs, Suarez Navarro is dwarfed by the six-footer Williams, though what the Spaniard lacks in height she makes up for in determination.

Sandwiched between those matches is sixth seed Andy Roddick [Images] against Austrian Juergen Melzer with the American, twice a runner-up at Wimbledon [Images], favourite to reach the last 16.

World number one Dinara Safina [Images] of Russia [Images] and Serbia's Ana Ivanovic [Images] find themselves on Court Two against Belgium's Kirsten Flipkens and Australian Samantha Stosur [Images] respectively.

Revitalised ex-champion Lleyton Hewitt [Images] follows compatriot Stosur on court, with the pair certain to be cheered on by a large contingent of green and yellow clad supporters.

Sixth-seeded Serb Jelena Jankovic [Images] is up against American Melanie Oudin on Court Three while ninth-seeded Dane Caroline Wozniacki [Images], promoted to a Centre Court slot on Thursday, finds herself cast away to the distant Court Four.

After five days of glorious sunshine, Wimbledon might finally get the chance to show off its latest innovation by closing the new multi-million pound roof. But forecasters had also predicted showers on Friday and they failed to arrive.
