Yes, with Zverevs match probably not starting until 9pm poor Jo could have a very long wait. I cannot imagine what it is like to play a strenuous and mentally and emotionally demanding tennis match when your body click thinks you ought to be asleep.

edit:

Zverevs match has started already, so fingers crossed it is not too lengthy.

 Famous last words! They are just starting the fifth set at close to midnight. 3 hours 20 mins so far, so if we say 50 mins for final set, we are looking at after 1 am for Jo to start her match!!

Mike Dickson has tweeted

So Zverev and Chardy and go to a fifth set at 1145pm. The last time Konta and Muguruza (following them) met at a Grand Slam their match lasted 3 hours 23 minutes.

If that came to pass we would be looking at a potential 4 am finish for Jo and Muguruza. Wow.

Does any other sport have crazy schedules like this??

Jo's match being moved to court 3

 

Edit: 

When they've washed the seagull poo off the court that is.

 

By which time Zverev might have finished off his match..............

Stu Fraser has tweeted that this will be the latest ever start to a match at the AO. Previous latest start was 11:59pm (Gavrilova vs Mertens 2018).

Hmm it was a shame Jo went down a break at the start. It got better after that. Come on!
