The 13.30 start on Centre Court doesn’t help. That should definitely be moved back to 13.00 next year. The experts say the grass is much slower then it used to be, maybe that’s contributing to longer match times.

Wimbledon also introduced a 30 minute break between matches on the big show courts for the social distanced 2021 event, but kept it after all the restrictions were lifted. This, along with the later 13:30 start means that an extra hour has been lost before a ball is hit on Centre Court. I guess this is good for the likes of the BBC with a higher likelihood of the show courts going to primetime, but also a lot higher chance of matches going close to the curfew.
