This time one protester sprinkled ticker-tape on the court before being dragged away by three security staff.Play resumed after the material was swept away, with both players helping to clear the court.
"Play on the court was temporarily paused and, following a suspension in play due to a rain delay, play is about to resume."Security had been beefed up for the grasscourt Grand Slam, one of the jewels of the British sporting summer, after a spate of protests at high-level events in Britain.
