  • Hewitt arrived at the All England Club still battling a painful hip injury but after being taken the full distance in his opening contest by Dutchman Robin Haase, the Australian has enjoyed two trouble-free contests.

    Hewitt reached the last 16 for the fifth year running.

    Hewitt will have to lift his game again to trouble Federer. Their head-to-head record stands at 13-7 in favour of the Swiss, who has won their last 11 meetings.
