There will be no further play at Queen’s on day three, as the courts have been ruled too slippery to continue safely.

Play will resume at 11:30 BST tomorrow, when the action continues.

Up next on Andy Murray Arena, Marie Bouzkova takes on Donna Vekic in the final match of day three.

Rain caused a delay to the start of play, but they are now under way.

Serena Williams' doubles campaign at Queen's is in doubt after Victoria Mboko suffers a knee injury in her singles match against Karolina Pliskova.

Victoria Mboko was coming back in the second set after dropping the opener when she lost her footing and went down.

It appeared to be a classic grass-court slip, likely caused by moisture accumulating on the surface, forcing her to retire from the match.

The Canadian is due to play with legend Serena Williams in the doubles on Thursday.

Veteran Czech player Karolína Plískova produced a composed display to beat rising Canadian star Victoria Mboko 6-2 in the first set.

Canada's Victoria Mboko is back on the court after her triumphant doubles debut alongside the returning Serena Williams yesterday.

She'll be taking on 2021 Wimbledon finalist Karolina Pliskova of the Czech Republic for a place in the quarter-finals.

It's all over and in the end it's a very impressive performance from Amanda Anisimova, whose powerful display proves to be too much for Laura Siegemund.

That was evident from the off in the second set as Anisimova broke Siegemund's serve, forcing the German into a wayward shot wide to clinch the first game.

Siegemund's game plan proved to be costly in spells, with the German trying to avoid getting into any kind of lengthy rally with the much more powerful Anisimova. The pursuit of a quick point lead to Siegemund forcing many of her shots out of play.

Siegemund was able to find more joy holding her serve in the second set compared to the first, utilising Anisimova's power against her by speeding in her serves to force the American's returns to fly past the baseline.

Anisimova would regain control soon after to take a 4-2 lead, using her powerful forehand smash to push Siegemund further and further behind the baseline, tiring the German veteran out in the process.

Last year's finalist seals the win by breaking the German's serve and clinching a place in the quarter-finals.

Well, that hasn't taken long after the restart.

Amanda Anisimova makes no mistake on serve, clinching the first set with three set points to hand.

It already looks like a long way back now for Laura Siegemund.

The rain has made way for some glorious sunshine as the players make their way back on to the court to warm up ahead of the resumption of play.

Amanda Anisimova will be serving to clinch the opening set.

The official word is that there will be no play for the next 15 minutes at the minimum but with the covers still on and the brollies still out, I fear we could be waiting much longer for play to resume...

The Great British summer rears its ugly head again and it's put a halt to a clinical display from Amanda Anisimova, who has taken a 5-1 lead against Laura Siegemund in this opening set.

The brollies initially came out in the crowd halfway through the set but after a light shower, the umpire decided to continue play.

That hasn't lasted long however, as Anisimova and Siegemund have been airing their concerns about losing their footing on the wet court.

The umpire has acquiesced and play has been stopped.

Last year's Queen's and Wimbledon finalist Amanda Anisimova of America takes on a veteran of the WTA tour, and a three-time doubles Grand Slam champion, in Germany's Laura Siegemund.

Will the second seed Anisimova win to set up a meeting with compatriot Iva Jovic in the quarter-finals, or can the 38-year old Siegemund put in a vintage performance to pull off what would be the first upset of the tournament so far?

The players are out on the court, it's time to find out...

History repeats itself as just like at Roland Garros, eighteen-year-old Iva Jovic defeats Alexandra Eala in straight sets to advance to the quarter-finals at Queen's Club.

The second set started off better than the first for Eala as she was able to hold her opening service game this time around.

Any positive momentum for the Filipina was quickly snuffed out by the American Jovic, who served up back-to-back aces to level the set at 1-1.

A minor injury scare for Eala, who slipped at the start of the third game, was pounced on by Jovic, who at one point had three break points before finally taking a 2-1 lead.

Eala recovered well with some powerful cross court shots to push Jovic back, but the American returned in kind to force Eala to end multiple rallies by sending the ball straight into the net.

Another broken service game proved to be too much to overcome for Eala, as Jovic's confidence from taking a 4-1 lead guided her towards winning the final two games needed to wrap up the victory.

The reward for Jovic's efforts will be a meeting with the winner of our next match, as the eighteen-year-old American will face either Germany's Laura Siegemund or her fellow compatriot and second seed Amanda Anisimova.

It's a very impressive start from Iva Jovic as the American takes the opening set in commanding fashion against Alexandra Eala.

The set started evenly enough as Jovic broke Eala's serve in a tight opening game.

Jovic has very much been the aggressor, coming forward and playing at the net as well as using the forehand smash effectively to put Eala on the back foot.

Eala appeared to have let the pressure get the best of her in the fifth game, overhitting multiple shots to allow Jovic to break her serve for the second time to take a 4-1 lead.

Eala showed some signs of life by breaking Jovic's serve to make it 4-2 but that only seemed to refocus the American, who immediately broke back before a strong service game wrapped up a 6-2 opening-set win with two set points to hand.

Eighteen-year-old Iva Jovic got the better of Alexandra Eala when these two met in the first round of the French Open last month, can the American make it back-to-back wins or will the Filipina avenge her defeat at Roland Garros?

Welcome back to Queen's Club on day three after an eventful second day of the 2026 grass court season.

Yesterday we saw successful opening round wins for both of Great Britain's stars Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter in the opening round of the women's singles, as well as the triumphant return of an American icon as Serena Williams was victorious in her opening round match-up in the women's doubles alongside her partner Victoria Mboko.

Today, the attention shifts from a legendary figure of American tennis to someone hoping to follow in her footsteps as Amanda Anisimova will be in action against Germany's Laura Siegemund in the round of 16.

The 24-year old American was a finalist at Queen's Club last year, losing to current champion Tatjana Maria, before suffering a crushing defeat against world number three Iga Swiatek in the 2025 Wimbledon final.

Anisimova will be hoping to go one step further this year at SW19, and winning the Championship at Queen's Club this time around would certainly help to give her the momentum to win the first Grand Slam title of her career.

Before that though, the action at Andy Murray Arena will get underway with another American as 18-year old Iva Jovic will take on Alexandra Eala in the round of 16.

Jovic made her professional debut back in 2022 at the age of 14, winning her first WTA title at the Guadalajara Open in 2025 to move into the top 40 of the women's rankings. She has gone from strength to strength since and currently sits in 19th place in the world rankings.

Jovic will take on a very familiar opponent in Alexandra Eala of the Philippines as the two met in the first round of this year's French Open, which the American won in straight sets 6-4, 6-2.

The road to Wimbledon starts here at the Queen's Club with the women's tournament taking place this week before the men step up next week.

The Nottingham Open, Eastbourne and Wimbledon Qualifying are all on the way in the next three weeks before the big one kicks off at SW19 on Monday June 29th.

So... who's ready for some tennis?

Emma Raducanu is hopeful her commanding first-round win over Anna Blinkova can serve as a "really good stepping stone" for her Wimbledon preparations.

The British number one was dominant for most of the contest on Tuesday, winning the first eight games without reply before going on to complete a 6-0 6-3 victory over the Russian qualifier.

"I'm so happy to have come through that match," the 23-year-old said.

"To be back here playing at Queen's, I haven't actually won a match for a few months and there isn't a place I would rather have done it. I'm really grateful for all the support."

'Really hard to sleep at night when you're in the middle of a match'

British number three Katie Boulter also reached the second round, although her win was less straightforward as she fought back from a set and a break down to beat eighth seed Leylah Fernandez 3-6, 7-6, (4) 7-5.

Their match was played over two days after play was suspended late on Monday with the Canadian leading 6-3, 3-3.

But Boulter, the world number 73, stepped up the intensity on Tuesday to force a deciding set before wrapping up the win after two hours and 45 minutes.

"I am really pleased with the way I came back today. I was a step slow last night and she was playing great," she said.

Serena Williams rolled back the years at Queen's with a winning performance on her comeback to tennis after 1,375 days away from the sport.

Fans with the hottest ticket in town packed out the Andy Murray Arena on Tuesday evening to watch one of the greatest players of all time return to action.

Playing doubles alongside Canadian teenager Victoria Mboko, the 44-year-old American didn't look a touch out of place as the pair won 7-6 (7-2) 6-2 to upset third seeds Erin Routliffe and Nicole Melichar-Martinez.

"It was so fun," Williams said in her post-match interview. "I had so much fun playing with Victoria. She was really able to hold up the team and play big on the big points. I could rely on her. We have never played together but it felt so natural."

Asked why she came back, she added: "I had nothing better to do, I got tired of sitting at home. My kids are out of school for the summer, so why not?
