After twelve days of qualifying matches, center court will be filled with final matches to determine the championship winners this weekend in London.
Multiple finals kick of the weekend Saturday, with Ladies' and Gentleman's Double Finals. The Ladies Single final starts at 2 p.m. local time, as Serena Williams of the United States takes on Garbine Muguruza of Spain.

Throughout the day, a mix of clouds and sunshine is expected with temperatures slightly above normal, reaching 24 C (76 F) in the afternoon. Spectators and players should dress accordingly in light clothing and stay hydrated with plenty of water. However, overall, it will be a beautiful day for watching some great tennis match-ups.
More final matches are scheduled for Sunday, including the Mixed Doubles Final and Wheelchair Doubles Finals. One anticipated match of the day takes place in the afternoon for the Men's Singles Final where Serbia's Novak Djokovic takes on Roger Federer of Switzerland.

A low pressure system slowly creeping towards southern England will bring a few showers into London on Sunday. A heavier shower could delay any games on the outside courts. However, Center Court, where the Men's Final will take place, has a retractable roof that can be closed if showers become too heavy for play.
Sunday is also expected to be cooler, with afternoon highs reaching near 20 C (the upper 60s F) under only a few breaks of sunshine.
For those visitors sticking around into the early part of the new week, showers will continue to be in the forecast Monday and Tuesday with near-average temperatures.
