Wimbledon glance: Murray, Nadal, Venus Williams on Day 5

A quick look at Wimbledon :

LOOKAHEAD TO FRIDAY

Defending champion Andy Murray takes on a familiar adversary at Centre Court in the third round: 28th-seeded Fabio Fognini of Italy. They have played six times, each earning three victories; the most recent match came in May on clay in Rome, where Fognini won in straight sets. ''Here, it's completely different,'' Fognini said, calling Murray the favorite. ''Of course, it's Wimbledon. It's home for him.'' Murray is one of four British players on Friday's schedule, along with Aljaz Bedene, Johanna Konta and Heather Watson. If all four win, the tournament's host country would have its largest contingent of men and women in the round of 16 since 1975. Also on Centre Court, Rafael Nadal will try to extend his run of winning 25 consecutive completed sets, which dates to the start of the French Open. His personal best at the majors is 28, from the quarterfinals at Wimbledon in 2010 to the U.S. Open final that year. Nadal faces 30th-seeded Karen Khachanov, a 21-year-old Russian appearing in only his fourth Grand Slam tournament. Others in action on Day 5 include five-time champion Venus Williams against Naomi Osaka, a 19-year-old from Japan, and 2014 U.S. Open champion Marin Cilic against 26th-seeded Steve Johnson of the U.S.
