Three-time champion Djokovic was too strong for Juan Martin del Potro’s slayer, former world No.10 Ernests Gulbis. The Serb prevailed 6-4, 6-1, 7-6(2) to set a fourth-round meeting with unseeded Adrian Mannarino after the Frenchman earlier upset No.15 seed Gael Monfils 7-6(3), 4-6, 5-7, 6-2, 6-2.

Seven-time champion Roger Federer later booked his last 16 berth with a 7-6(3), 6-4, 6-4 result against German No.27 seed Mischa Zverev. The Swiss finished with 58 winners and just seven unforced errors. He will take on former semi-finalist No.13 seed Grigor Dimitrov, the first winner of the day in the Gentlemen’s Singles draw, after the Bulgarian outclassed Dudi Sela before the Israeli retired hurt while trailing 6-1, 6-1.

No.8 seed Dominic Thiem progressed to the second week at Wimbledon for the first time moments after Federer’s victory with a 7-5, 6-4, 6-2 result over American Jared Donaldson. The Austrian next faces former finalist Tomas Berdych. The Czech No.11 seed easily accounted for David Ferrer 6-3, 6-4, 6-3.

Former finalists Garbiñe Muguruza and Angelique Kerber will face off for a place in the quarter-finals on Monday after contrasting but impressive third-round performances.
Muguruza, who faced Serena Williams in the 2015 final, was imperious once more against Sorana Cirstea, racing past the Romanian 6-2, 6-2.

But things were far less straight-forward for Kerber, whose world No.1 ranking was under threat when she trailed American Shelby Rogers by a set and a break. The German, who lost to Williams in last year’s final, produced her best tennis of the week to turn the match around for a 4-6, 7-6(2) 6-4 victory.

Danish No.5 seed Caroline Wozniacki survived an almighty scare to oust big-hitting Esonian Anett Kontaveit. Twice the Estonian served for a straight-sets upset before Wozniacki rallied to force the decider. She eventually ran away with a 4-6, 7-6(3), 6-2 victory. CoCo Vandeweghe boosted her grass court credentials as she booked showdown with Wozniacki via a 6-2, 6-4 win over US compatriot Alison Riske. Like Vandeweghe, Svetlana Kuznetsova is through to the fourth round without dropping a set – the Russian claimed her second bagel of the week in a 6-4, 6-0 win over Polona Hercog.

On Centre Court, Agnieszka Radwanska booked her place in the fourth round with an entertaining 3-6, 6-4, 6-1 win over Timea Bacsinszky, while qualifier Petra Martic’s run continues after a 7-6(6), 6-1 win over Zarina Diyas.

The Croatian will next face Magdalena Rybarikova, who backed up her win over Karolina Pliskova in style against Lesia Tsurenko, beating the Ukrainian 6-2, 6-1.

No.10 seed Alexander Zverev fared better than his brother as he posted a 6-4, 6-4, 6-2 win over surprise Austrian qualifier Sebastian Ofner, while last year’s finalist, Milos Raonic, eased past Albert Ramos-Vinolas 7-6(3), 6-4, 7-5.

Sam Querrey’s held-over showdown with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga lasted just one game, the American breaking the French No.12 seed with the match on the line to complete a 6-2, 3-6, 7-6(5), 1-6, 7-5 win. Querrey will face South Africa’s Kevin Anderson on Monday.

In the doubles, top seeds Henri Kontinen and John Peers saw off Britons Scott Clayton and Jonny O’Mara 6-3, 6-4, 6-4, but three-time Wimbledon champions Bob and Mike Bryan are out after losing to Marcin Matkowski and Max Mirnyi 6-3, 7-5, 6-4. The biggest upset of the day belonged to wild card pairing of Jay Clarke and Marcus Willis. The British duo took down defending champions Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert 3-6, 6-1, 7-6(3), 7-5, 6-3.

Kirsten Flipkens and Sania Mirza, the No.13 seeds, beat Brits Naomi Broady and Heather Watson 6-3, 3-6, 6-4 on a good day for the top-ranked pairings – No.4 seeds Timea Babos and Andrea Hlavackova, No.5 seeds Lucie Hradecka and Katerina Siniakova, and No.7 seeds Julia Goerges and Barbora Strycova all booked their place in the third round.

Heather Watson and Henri Kontinen's defence of their Mixed Doubles title stayed on track after they landed a 6-1, 6-3 win over Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi and Anna-Lena Groenefeld while No.1 seeds Martina Hingis and Jamie Murray eased past Neal Skupski and Anna Smith 6-3, 6-0.

Stat of the day:
4 minutes, 15 seconds – the time it took Sam Querrey to complete his five-set upset of Jo-Wilfried Tsonga at the resumption of play on Saturday.

Quote of the day:
"You are taking so much time" – Ernests Gulbis has a dig at Novak Djokovic as he waits for the Serb to walk off Centre Court. "Sorry man," Djokovic grinned.

Here's what to look out for on Manic Monday.

Sixteen matches, every fourth round contested on a single day and every one a winner. It’s a phenomenon in the Grand Slams unique to Wimbledon and this particular Monday - ‘manic’ Monday is apparently now the preferred descriptor, leaving The Bangles with much to answer for - looks particularly grand, featuring players with 64 Grand Slam singles crowns between them.
On the gentlemen’s side, we have the ‘big four’ - Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray - all back in harness at the start of The Championships’ second week for only the second time in six years and all in such decent fettle that they’ve dropped just one set between them. That was the one Murray gave up to a buccaneering Fabio Fognini last time out and while that troublesome hip of Andrew’s makes a nation uneasy, it’s still hard to envision anyone from outside that quartet breaking their 14-year stranglehold on ownership of the Challenge Cup.
What’s remarkable about the men’s round of 16 is the richness of experience. It features no less than a dozen who are 28 or over, including seven 30-somethings, which makes the presence of 20-year-old Alexander Zverev, a second week debutant up against last year’s finalist Milos Raonic on No.2 Court, stand out so strikingly.
The ladies event, in stark contrast, still has a much more open feel and if Venus Williams cannot become champion for a sixth time - and she would have to be by some distance the oldest in modern times at 37 to do so - then it’s extremely difficult to identify an obvious first-time winner. Serena still looms large over those trying to succeed her. Even big sister may allow herself a wry smile that Ana Konjuh, her 19-year-old opponent on Centre Court who will hit with an extraordinary lack of inhibition, is nicknamed ‘Baby Serena’. Alas for the young Croatian, Venus hasn't lost to a teenager for 13 years.
On No.2 Court, there is more on the line than just the prospect of Angelique Kerber and Garbiñe Muguruza, who lost the last two finals to Serena, progressing to the quarter-finals. If Kerber loses, her world No.1 ranking goes with her and she will have noted with concern how Muguruza, who set off the alarms while cooking steak in her Wimbledon flat the other night, has found smoking hot form.
That could easily be the match of this day of days, but to be fair, we could make a case for maybe half-a-dozen. Federer versus Grigor Dimitrov - or Fed v Baby Fed, as it has inevitably been billed - on Centre looks most irresistible, like some sort of elegant ballet of the one-handed backhands.
Then there’s Victoria Azarenka’s toughest adventure yet as ‘Supermum’ on No.2 Court against Simona Halep, perhaps the best player never to have won a major, who could still end the week as champion and world No.1.
Top billing, though? Well, it’s four years since we had two Britons on singles duty in week two so Murray and Johanna Konta can share as the hype starts swirling in earnest about them possibly becoming the first home pair since Fred Perry and Dorothy Round in 1934 to win in the same year.
Konta’s eminent sensibleness and unruffled attitude in the face of all this hoopla bodes well and on No.1 Court, she faces a French opponent, Caroline Garcia, who’s known all about the difficulties of being saddled with great expectations in her homeland. Sometimes, she must have felt like cursing Murray for his tweet six years ago when she was 17, pronouncing her as a future world No.1, but this has felt like the year that Garcia has finally begun to believe, reaching the quarter-finals of the French Open and beating Konta in a tight affair at Indian Wells.
Murray, a serial conqueror of French opponents, tackles Benoit Paire, yet another unfathomable, talented and erratic adversary for him. The grass once frustrated Paire so much that in 2014 he departed in a huff with the memorable line about how Wimbledon “displeases me greatly.” Yet now that he’s playing the best tennis of his career and looking comfortable on the surface, Paire says he’s found inner calm and, offered the dream opportunity of a date with the champion on Centre Court, he makes it sound as if, actually, SW19 now pleases him greatly. On Manic Monday, it really ought to.
