The sixth day of the Wimbledon Grand Slam tournament saw the return of rainy conditions, causing many matches to be delayed or cancelled. The tournament, which is held annually in London, England, has been plagued with wet weather this year.
The rain began on Monday and continued throughout the week, causing many matches to be rescheduled or cancelled. On Thursday, the rain was so heavy that the tournament was forced to close for the day. This was the first time in the tournament’s history that it had been closed due to rain.
The rain caused a number of delays and cancellations on Friday as well. Some of the matches that were affected included the men’s singles quarterfinals between Roger Federer and Kei Nishikori, and the women’s singles quarterfinals between Serena Williams and Simona Halep.
Despite the rain, some of the matches were able to be completed. The men’s doubles final between Mike Bryan and Bob Bryan and Jean-Julien Rojer and Horia Tecau was completed in just over two hours. The women’s doubles final between Martina Hingis and Sania Mirza and Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina was also completed in just over two hours.
The rain has caused a number of problems for the tournament, but it has not dampened the spirits of the players or spectators. Many of the players have expressed their appreciation for the support of the fans, despite the wet conditions.
The tournament is expected to continue on Saturday, but it remains to be seen if the rain will continue to affect play. The tournament organizers have said that they are doing their best to ensure that all matches are completed as quickly as possible.
No matter what the weather brings, it is sure to be an exciting weekend at Wimbledon. Fans around the world will be watching to see who will come out on top in this year’s tournament.
