Katerina Siniakova vs. Johanna Konta

Konta, the 19th seed and top-rated Briton in the draw, reached the semifinals of the French Open this year. She will face off against Siniakova, last year’s doubles champion at the All-England Club, in the second match on Centre Court. Although Siniakova has not had a good grass season, she did beat Naomi Osaka in the third round at the French Open, using her shot selection to disrupt Osaka’s powerful baseline play. Konta will rely on the faster bounce off the grass to assist her in overwhelming Siniakova’s defensive capabilities.

Andy Murray/Pierre-Hughes Herbert vs. Marius Copil/Ugo Humbert

Murray, a two time singles champion at the All England Club, continues his slow return from a hip injury at Wimbledon. Murray last played doubles at the All England Club in 2005, but recently won the Queen’s Club doubles title alongside Feliciano Lopez. To help him at Wimbledon, he’s recruited the doubles specialist Herbert, who has won four Grand Slams in doubles — one at each major. On the other side of the net, Humbert has been having a good week, having beaten Gael Monfils on his way to the third round in singles, where he will face Felix Auger-Aliassime. Copil lost a tough match in the first round against Guido Pella, one which could have ended differently had Copil not lost the first tiebreaker, 13-11. Humbert and Copil will be significant underdogs against the seven combined Grand Slam championships across the net.
