The All England Club says a tennis fan at Court 12 had to be resuscitated after collapsing during a match at Wimbledon.

The club says a 60-year-old woman received medical attention and was transported to a local hospital.

The incident occurred during the fourth set of Mikhail Kukushkin's match against Jan-Lennard Struff in the third round. Kukushkin was leading 6-3, 7-6 (5), 4-6, 2-2 at the time and the match was briefly suspended as medical personnel attended to the woman.

The match resumed a short time later.
