Live coverage continues as the tournament builds towards tomorrow's showpiece men's singles final.
But with the women's title now decided, this evening's focus is the men's doubles final - always a joy to watch on a fine summer's evening. Australian Todd Woodbridge has dominated the tournament in recent years, claiming six titles from 1993 to
2000 with Mark Woodforde , then adding a further three successes with Sweden's Jonas Bjorkman in the last three years. Will his new partnership with India's Mahesh Bhupathi produce a tenth title? Not if the number one seeds, Jonas Bjorkman - him again! - and Max Mirnyi have any say in the matter. Presented by Sue Barker. www.bbc.co.uk/wimbledon INTERACTIVE: extra features available to digital viewers
