Wimbledon 2013: day seven
All the best images from SW19 on Manic Monday, as Serena Williams is shocked by Sabine Lisicki, Laura Robson's run is ended, and Andy Murray continues his campaign
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/102.jpg
Judy Murray is in the Royal Box ready to watch her son Andy take on Mikhail Youzhny. They're on Centre Court after reigning women's champion Serena Williams takes on Sabine Lisicki
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/103.jpg
Also in the Royal Box on day seven is golfing legend Jack Nicklaus and his wife Barbara
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/104.jpg
Meanwhile over on Court One, Laura Robson's fourth-round match against Kaia Kanepi is getting under way. It's the first time in 15 years that Britain has both female and male representatives in the fourth round. It's a tight opening set and Robson took the initiative in the ninth game, breaking Kanepi to lead 5-4
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/105.jpg
However, Kanepi immediately broke back and the set eventually went to a tie-break, which Kanepi took courtesy of a couple of Robson errors. The youngster has a few things to focus on ahead of the second set
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/106.jpg
These problems continued in the second set with mis-hits and laboured movement inflicting Robson's game. Frustration then set in and the Brit lost her serve in the 11th game before losing the set 7-5
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/107.jpg
Despite defeat, the 19-year-old leaves the court to appreciative and rousing applause

First up on Centre Court is 24th seed Sabine Lisicki, who is taking on five-times champion Serena Williams
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/110.jpg
Williams had no answer to Lisicki's serves and returns in the opening set and was broken twice as the German took it 6-2
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/111.jpg
After losing the first game in the second set, the defending champion seemed to find her groove and put together nine straight games to take the second set 6-1 and claim a 3-0 lead in the decider
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/112.jpg
Then it was Lisicki's turn to storm back and she eventually broke Williams, before taking a 5-4 lead which meant she was serving for the match
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/113.jpg
She missed one match point after a forehand error, but held her nerve on the second to put a forehand away and dump out the world No1 and end the American's winning streak at 34 matches
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/114.jpg
Lisicki caused one of the biggest shocks in recent history in the women's event with her 6-2, 1-6, 6-4 victory, which booked her place in the quarter-finals. She was so overcome with joy that she fell to the ground in celebration and was shaking when interviewed immediately after the match
