World number one Rafael Nadal took to the practice courts ahead of his last-16 tie with Jiri Vesely on Monday - and soon found himself in very familiar company.

A photo posted on Twitter by the Spaniard showed Novak Djokovic enjoying a hit beside Nadal, while eight-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer completed a star-studded trio on the next court.

Nadal, Djokovic and Federer boast 49 grand slam singles titles between them and few would bet on that figure reaching 50 come next Sunday.
