World’s number one Novak Djokovic was 18 minutes into his 3rd round match against Germany’s Philipp Kohlschreiber when the rain started coming down hard enough to suspend play.
The match was the final one of the night at Stadium One, but rain increases the injury risk for players.
The match is scheduled to resume tomorrow. Stay with News Channel 3 for continuing coverage.
