Alize Cornet ends top seed’s 37 match winning streak

Rafael Nadal beat Lorenzo Sonego 6-1, 6-2, 6-4 to reach the fourth round of the Wimbledon Tennis Grand Slam. The roof came on with Nadal leading 4-2 in the third, with the Spaniard unhappy by the interruption. In the following game, he was upset over a noise Italian Sonego had made during a point to set up his first break points of the match. But Nadal then regained control over a match he dominated.

World number one twenty-one-year-old Polish Iga Swiatek saw her 37-match winning streak ended by France’s Alize Cornet (32) 6-4, 6-2, to cause one of the biggest upsets so far in Wimbledon. Coco Gauff was knocked out as fellow American Amanda Anisimova seeded 20th, fought back from a set down to reach the fourth round for the first time.
