Chaos erupted Monday at Wimbledon when play halted on Court 1 as No. 4 seed Taylor Fritz and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard were tied after four sets. With the 11 p.m. curfew looming under a Merton Council agreement, officials suspended the match despite only 40 minutes remaining. Fritz, visibly furious after mounting a comeback from two sets down winning the third 6‑4 and the fourth-set tiebreak 8‑6 expressed his frustration, and the crowd booed the decision. Perricard had delivered 33 aces and won the first two sets in tiebreaks . Play will resume Tuesday with the decisive fifth set. (PC: X)
