Coco in cruise control
Coco Gauff is so far having no troubles over on Centre Court against American compatriot Caroline Dolehide.
She leads 4-1 with two breaks, and has already electrified the excited the crowd.
One point in particular during the last game lifted bums off seats – as she used her incredible speed and powers of retrieval to hit a Dolehide smash back for a winner.
There is unlikely to be a repeat of last year’s round one exit here in SW19.
World No1 cruising
World No1 Jannik Sinner is cruising against Yannick Hanfmann over on No1 Court.
The recent Halle champion, 22, leads 6-3, 6-4 against the German.
It surely won’t be long until he books his place in round two.
Charles Broom on Wawrinka defeat
Charles Broom was swept away by Stan Wawrinka as the Swiss celebrated their first success of the week over England.
The St Albans battler, 26, went down 6-3 7-5 6-4 to the three-time Grand Slam champion on No.2 Court.
Yet Broom will be kicking himself for squandering four set points in the second set on his Wimbledon debut.
Wawrinka, who hails from Lausanne, moved into the second round at the ripe old age of 39.
And he will hope this is a good omen for his national team ahead of the Euros quarter-final with the Three Lions on Saturday.
Broom said: “I’m a little bit disappointed but honestly just an immense sense of pride to be able to play here and push him pretty close.
“I had a lot of friends there. A couple of mates flew over from the US. One was wearing an ‘I love Charlie Broom’ shirt. I was, like: ‘Mate, you have to take that one off.’
“The support from everyone was just amazing.”
Brit Broady falls to Botic
Wildcard Liam Broady has lost in four sets to Dutchman Botic van de Zandschulp over on No2 Court.
The popular Mancunian, 30, has had a torrid time with injuries this year.
Having returned from a four-month lay-off in Eastbourne last week, he fell 6-2 4-6 6-3 6-2 in round one of Wimbledon.
Emma Raducanu and Lily Miyazaki remain the only British winners so far today.
Upset alert!
Eighth seed Zheng Qinwen has become the highest-ranked player to lose thus far on day one of Wimbledon.
The dejected Chinese No1 fell to Lulu Sun 4-6 6-2 6-4 over on Court 3.
Britain’s has another winner!
Mere minutes after Emma Raducanu became the first British winner of Wimbledon 2024, Lily Miyazaki became the second!
The wildcard, 28, trounced Tamara Korpatsch 6-2 6-1 over on Court 16 to book her place in round two.
Her reward will be a battle with Eastbourne winner Daria Kasatkina, which will surely be given big billing on Wednesday.
