LONDON -- Dismayed at dropping the first set after being a single point from taking it, Serena Williams sat in her Centre Court sideline chair and cracked her racket against the turf once, twice, three times, four. Mens Black John Elliott x Nike Vandal High AH8518-001 .Then she casually flung the racket, hurling it so far behind her that it landed in the lap of a TV cameraman filming her second-round match against 65th-ranked American Christina McHale.Williams recovered to force a third set, only to fall behind yet again Friday, perilously close to what would have been the six-time champions earliest exit in 17 Wimbledon appearances.But as she herself declared afterward: Mentally, no one can break me.Eventually, the top-ranked Williams did indeed come through, edging McHale 6-7 (7), 6-2, 6-4 for a thrill-a-minute victory at a tournament so rain drenched this week that matches will be scheduled on the middle Sunday for only the fourth time in 139 years.The dramatics of Williams match, which concluded with the main stadiums retractable roof closed, were equaled by those of her older sister Venus: She had to wait out three rain delays, including one of more than an hour that arrived, of all times, right as she held a match point. But Venus, owner of five titles at the All England Club, persevered, too, barely getting past 29th-seeded Daria Kasatkina 7-5, 4-6, 10-8 to become one of only two women already into the fourth round.You see a winner go by you, and a lob go in, and youre like, `My god, whats next? said Venus, who at 36 is the oldest woman in the field and has played about 6 1/2 hours of tennis in the past two days, including singles and doubles.Of the way things went for her Friday, including the interruption at match point while she led 5-4 in the third and Kasatkina served at 30-40, Venus said: It was like a Hollywood script.Serenas mood soured when she had a set point in the first and appeared to have converted it, until McHale -- whos never been past the third round at a major -- successfully challenged the call that her shot landed out. From there, McHale played aggressively, and when she grabbed that set, 21-time Grand Slam champion Serena took out her frustration on her racket.I was just really, really, really angry. I had a lot of chances, said Serena, who acknowledged she faces a fine for her display and joked that she needed to reach her racket-smashing quota for the season. She got really lucky on some shots.Despite all that went on in the siblings matches -- they overlapped, so their mother, Oracene Price, hustled from No. 1 Court, where she saw Venus win, across the way to catch the end of Serenas victory -- the most shocking development Friday was what was going on in Novak Djokovics third-rounder against 28th-seeded Sam Querrey of the U.S. before it was suspended because of showers in the evening.Djokovic, owner of a 30-match Grand Slam winning streak that includes the past four major titles, allowed Querrey to seize the first two sets 7-6 (6), 6-1 during their 72 minutes of action. Given the way things were going for the No. 1-seeded Djokovic, he had to be thrilled that the match was halted, giving him a night to rest and regroup.Only one man managed to move his way into the fourth round: Roger Federer. He got to play in the main stadium, with the roof overhead, and easily beat Britains Daniel Evans 6-4, 6-2, 6-2.Four other third-round mens matches were suspended in progress. Worst of all, from a scheduling standpoint, one second-round mens match is still not finished, with No. 24 Alexander Zverev locked in a fifth set against Mikhail Youzhny. And three second-round womens matches are also pending.That is why officials decided to scrap the traditional rest day on the first Sunday, something that was done only in 1991, 1997 and 2004.I might take a day off tomorrow, just because I can, the 34-year-old Federer said with a smile. Yeah, I can. Im sorry, I can. I have to take them when I can. Im an old guy.Among the other winners Friday was 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro, who has had three operations on his left wrist since he last participated at Wimbledon in 2013. He eliminated fourth-seeded Stan Wawrinka, a two-time major champion, 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 (2), 6-3 to reach the third round.My hands (are) shaking, del Potro said after being regaled with a lengthy ovation at Centre Court. Its a great sensation for me, because Im playing tennis again -- and I feel alive.---Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich Nike Zoom Training - Zoom Fit Agility Mens Red Black 684988-660 . 10 VCU 85-67 on Thursday night at the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.
