Wimbledon 2023: Petra Kvitova through to fourth round after rain delay

Two-time champion Petra Kvitova is through to the fourth round of Wimbledon for only the second time since winning the title in 2014.

The Czech ninth seed beat Serbian qualifier Natalija Stevanovic 6-3 7-5.

Following a rain delay at SW19, the Czech player came through a tight second set to seal victory.

British number one Katie Boulter plays defending champion Elena Rybakina later on Saturday, with Aryna Sabalenka and Ons Jabeur also in action.

Kvitova last reached the fourth round in 2019 but arrived this year in good form, having won the Berlin Open in the build-up.
