London • It won't quite be Manic Monday at Wimbledon, but close.

The second Monday at the Grand Slam tournament has been dubbed that previously because all remaining players in the singles draw — 16 men and 16 women — usually play their fourth-round matches on that day after a rest day on Sunday.

But with rain stopping third-round play Saturday for nearly five hours on all but the covered Centre Court, several matches were either postponed or suspended. So only 30 singles players will hit the courts at the All England Club on Monday and several others, including Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, will have the day off while their section of the draw is settled.

Streaks meet • Maria Sharapova, the 2004 Wimbledon champion who has won 22 of 23 matches since April, including the French Open final, plays Angelique Kerber of Germany, who is 7-1 so far this grass-court season, including the final at Eastbourne. Sharapova is attempting the French Open-Wimbledon clay-grass double for the second time, having lost in the fourth round here in 2012 after winning at Roland Garros a few weeks earlier. "Of course, the transition, it's no secret, it's very difficult," Sharapova says. "But I'm quite happy with the way I've gone about things so far."

Tsonga redemption? • Novak Djokovic goes into his match against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga with a sore left arm after a fall in Friday's match. Djokovic says ultrasounds show no major issues, despite at first thinking he had dislocated his shoulder. The last time the two played, Tsonga won just six games at the French Open earlier this month in a fourth-round loss.

Frustrating times • China's Peng Shuai plays 2011 champion Petra Kvitova trying to end her drought in quarterfinals at Grand Slam tournaments. Peng is playing in her 36th major and her best results are five fourth-round appearances. —
