Andy Murray and Stefanos Tsitsipas are set to renew their rivalry at Wimbledon after Tsitsipas secured a hard-fought victory over Dominic Thiem in the first round. Their previous encounters, including the contentious US Open match where Murray accused Tsitsipas of cheating with his prolonged bathroom breaks, have added fuel to the anticipated clash.
Due to rain delays, Tsitsipas and Thiem's match spilled over into the third day of The Championships. Play resumed with Tsitsipas leading 4-3 in the second set, while Murray had already won his opening match under the closed roof of Centre Court.
Thiem faced a set point at 4-5 when play resumed, but he managed to take the set to a tiebreak. Tsitsipas dominated the breaker, winning it 7-6(1) to level the match at one set apiece., reports the Express.
