The Wimbledon Open Championships has already wrapped up its wild and unpredictable first week of play, which saw a slew of early round upsets that crushed the Grand Slam hopes of former champions Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Maria Sharapova.

Despite the fall of the stars, the level of competition at All-England Club remains at the highest level and it is expected to reach its peak in the second week.

The playing field is now down to 16 players each in the men's singles and women's singles tournament after three rounds of intense tennis. 2011 Wimbledon Champion Novak Djokovic continued to assert his dominance in the men's side, subduing all his first three opponents without dropping a single set.

Meanwhile, Serena Williams has been nothing short of spectacular through the first three rounds as she dispatched every opponent coming to her way with relative ease.

Of course, the Britons are still alive and kicking. Andy Murray, who came close to win the first Wimbledon Open championship for Great Britain last year only to lose in the final against Roger Federer, hasn't conceded a single set after three rounds.

Laura Robson, one of the biggest surprises in the tourney, is through to the fourth round following her victories against no.10 seed Maria Kirilenko and Maria Erakovic.

Like all Grand Slam tournaments, this year's Wimbledon also produced up-and-coming stars such as Poland's Jerzy Janowicz and Cuba's Mónica Puig. Janowicz will face Jurgen Melzer in a bracket supposed to be owned by Federer.

Puig, on the other hand, stunned world's no.5 Sara Errani in the first round and then survived her next two matches against Silvia Soler Espinosa and Eva Birnerová in three sets to book a fourth-round showdown with Australian Open semifinalist Sloane Stephens.

As part of Wimbledon's long tradition, no match is scheduled on middle Sunday and play will resume on the next day.
