Tuesday's play was delayed by over two hours, forcing tournament organizers to revise the order of play.

The opening match on stadium court, between France's Gael Monfils and Sebastian Korda, was mid-way through the third-set when the rain began to fall.

German Zverev's match, which was scheduled to be the final contest of the day on stadium court, is the day's only singles match that was pushed to Wednesday.

The WTA quarter-final match between Poland's Magda Linette and Italian sixth-seed Jasmine Paolini was been switched to the grandstand court.

The final game scheduled on stadium court will be the last eight clash between top seed Aryna Sabalenka and China's Qinwen Zheng.
