Eugenie Bouchard returns to the courts of the All England Club on Monday, as action from Wimbledon continues following "Middle Sunday," a day of rest for the players.

The 13th-seeded Bouchard, from Westmount, Que., faces France's Alzie Cornet on Centre Court in fourth-round action. Cornet beat top seed and five-time champion Serena Williams in a stunning upset on Saturday.

Watch the action live on TSN and TSN GO at 8am et/5am pt.

Cornet won her previous meeting with Bouchard on clay at Strasbourg last year.

Bouchard, a semifinalist in Melbourne and Paris this season, posted a 6-3, 6-4 victory over German Andrea Petkovic to reach this point. Bouchard produced 30 winners and 14 unforced errors, breaking five time in the match lasting less than 90 minutes.

Bouchard, along with fellow countryman Milos Raonic, set records as they became the fourth and fifth Canadians respectively to reach the fourth round of Wimbledon after straight-set wins on Saturday.

Both had to wait out a rain interruption lasting nearly five hours before taking comprehensive third-round victories to join Carling Bassett-Seguso (1983, 1986), Patricia Hy-Boulais (1996-97) and Daniel Nestor (1999) as Canadians who made it into the second week of a major.

Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., joins Bouchard in Wimbledon's second week after beating Poland's Lukasz Kubot in the third round 7-6 (2), 7-6(4), 6-2. He fired over 30 aces and 50 winners, breaking twice with just six unforced errors on the way to victory.

Raonic has won three straight Wimbledon grass matches for the first time, after doing the same at Halle, Germany in 2011 and 2012.

Canada's Vasek Pospisil is also in doubles action on Monday, as he and playing partner Jack Sock of the United States face eighth-seeded Rohan Bopanna and Aisam Qureshi in the second round.
