London, Great Britain, 2 July 2022 | Leigh Rogers

Nick Kyrgios takes centre stage on day six at Wimbledon 2022, looking to add another big scalp to an already impressive resume.

The 27-year-old Australian faces fourth-seeded Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas in an intriguing third-round showdown.

Kyrgios is looking to record his third top-10 win at the All England Club – and first in seven years.

“We’re two of the biggest stars in the sport. Hopefully if we both bring our best tennis, it’s going to be amazing to watch,” the world No.40 said of the match-up.

Kyrgios is one of several Aussies shining at Wimbledon this week.

Alex de Minaur is enjoying a career-best run, advancing to the third round for the first time since his 2018 debut.

The determined No.19 seed is eyeing a fourth-round spot when he faces British wildcard Liam Broady today.

“If you can get yourself to a second week, you know, anything can happen,” said De Minaur. “So that’s what I’ve been trying to do.”

Jason Kubler is also making his first third-round appearance at a major tournament, while Ajla Tomljanovic is looking to continue her winning run in the ladies’ singles competition.

With 12 Aussie contenders scheduled to compete on day six, Australian tennis fans are in for a treat.

Play begins from 8pm AEST and is broadcast live in Australia on the Nine Network and Stan Sport.

Aussies in action:

Ajla Tomljanovic (AUS) v [13] Barbora Krejcikova (CZE)
Ladies’ singles, third round, Court 12, first match (from 8pm AEST)
A confident Tomljanovic has stormed into the third round, conceding only nine games across her opening two rounds. The world No.44 now faces a big test against the Roland Garros 2021 champion. Yet Krejcikova, who achieved a career-high ranking at world No.2 in February, has not recorded a top-50 win since reaching the Australian Open quarterfinals in January. The 26-year-old Czech recently had COVID and has also been dealing with an elbow injury.

Gentlemen’s singles, third round, Court 18, first match (from 8pm AEST)
World No.99 Kubler has won 21 of his past 24 matches, recently returned to the world’s top 100 for the first time in almost four years and is on a career-best Grand Slam run. The 29-year-old Australian now faces another resurgent qualifier. Sock, a 29-year-old American currently ranked No.103, is a former top-10 player and enjoying his best Wimbledon run since 2016. Their only previous meeting was in an ITF Futures final more than a decade ago.
Head-to-head record: Sock leads 1-0
Last meeting: Sock won 6-1 7-6(5) (USA F1, January 2012)

[19] Alex de Minaur (AUS) v [WC] Liam Broady (GBR)
Gentlemen’s singles, third round, No.1 Court, first match (from 10pm AEST)
De Minaur is facing a left-handed British player for the second match in a row. The world No.27-ranked Australian enters this match as the favourite – but knows he can’t take Broady, a 28-year-old who upset No.12 seed Schwartzman in the previous round, lightly. “He’s obviously playing some great tennis,” De Minaur said of his No.132-ranked opponent, who is contesting his first third-round match at Grand Slam level.
Head-to-head record: De Minaur leads 1-0
Last meeting: De Minaur won 6-3 6-4 (Eastbourne, June 2021)

Nick Kyrgios (AUS) v [4] Stefanos Tsitsipas (GRE)
Gentlemen’s singles, third round, No.1 Court, third match
World No.5 Tsitsipas is hoping to extend a six-match winning streak and advance to the Wimbledon fourth round for the first time since 2018. The 23-year-old Greek did lose to Kyrgios on grass at Halle last month, but is not worried about that result. “It’s a different day, it’s a different match,” Tsitsipas commented. “I am definitely thrilled to be facing (Nick). I respect him a lot, on the court. He’s playing good tennis.”
Head-to-head record: Kyrgios leads 3-1
Last meeting: Kyrgios won 5-7 6-2 6-4 (Halle, June 2022)
