Day 9 of the Wimbledon Championship is significant, as we are in the second week of the third grand slam of the season.

This day marks the start of the men’s and women’s quarter-finals and could see the end of British singles participation with Cameron Norrie facing the defending champion, Carlos Alcaraz.

Other matches on day 9 at Wimbledon include Taylor Fritz vs. Karen Khachanov, Aryna Sabalenka vs. Laura Siegemund, and Amanda Anisimova vs. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.

Before the action begins on the main courts, explore our Wimbledon day 9 tips below.

Wimbledon Day 9 Tips: Our Picks

Carlos Alcaraz 3-1 Cameron Norrie (29/10)

The selection of Carlos Alcaraz to win 3-1 has been beneficial throughout the Championships, and there is no reason to change this strategy as we reach the quarter-finals.

Alcaraz’s focus is likely sharper at this critical stage, facing not only Cameron Norrie but also the majority of the Centre Court crowd with the 29-year-old being the last Brit standing.

Norrie has performed exceptionally, defeating two higher-ranked ATP opponents, and has shown resilience, winning only one of his four matches in straight sets.

The primary reason for this bet is Alcaraz’s tendency to give opponents a glimmer of hope in grand slams. He has lost exactly one set in each of his last two rounds at Wimbledon, similar to four of his seven wins at Roland Garros.

Taylor Fritz vs. Karen Khachanov – Over 4.5 Sets (5/2)

If there is one men’s quarter-final match likely to go the distance, it is Taylor Fritz vs. Karen Khachanov.

Both players excel in delivering powerful serves regularly, making it hard to break them. This often leads to tie breaks – Fritz has played five at Wimbledon so far, while Khachanov has played three.

Both have been involved in two five-set matches each at the championships, demonstrating their willingness to endure for a win.

All these factors combined make another five-set match on Tuesday quite possible.

Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova to Beat Amanda Anisimova (9/5)

Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova has had an excellent Wimbledon so far, and recent winners of the women’s tournament have often been unexpected choices, making the world number 50 optimistic about her chances.

Though Pavlyuchenkova is the underdog again versus Amanda Anisimova, she has faced this position in all her matches so far and remained unfazed.

Pavlyuchenkova has appeared more stable and confident on grass compared to her American opponent this week, and her experience as a previous Grand Slam finalist could be crucial.
