Andy Murray and Stefanos Tsitsipas began a potentially epic encounter on day four at Wimbledon

Andy Murray is out of Wimbledon after Stefanos Tsitsipas battled from two sets to one down to win a two-day epic on Centre Court.

Murray was a set away from reaching the third round on Thursday night when the match was suspended at 10:40pm due to the Wimbledon curfew.

The fourth set was close when the contest resumed on Friday afternoon and went to a tiebreak, which Tsitsipas edged to level the match and force the decider.

The fifth seed then broke Murray early in the fifth and held serve to close out a 7-6 6-7 4-6 7-6 6-4 win in four hours and 40 minutes of total play.

The defeat will be crushing for Murray after the 36-year-old stood a set away from victory, but Tsitsipas proved too strong once the match resumed. Follow live updates, scores and results from SW19 below.
