MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Wimbledon – Day 1 gentlemen’s singles final results

Félix Auger-Aliassime is out in his opening around, after a more than four-hour battle (plus a rain delay) against American lucky loser Michael Mmoh.

And Denis Shapovalov was in some trouble as well – down a set and a break. He got that second-set break back, and then play was suspended for the evening. Which is probably a blessing for him, as he was getting pretty agitated out there.

It was a great day for two British wild cards and three qualifiers, all of whom advanced to the second round.

And it was also a merciful stoppage for three seeds – Taylor Fritz, Roberto Bautista Agut and Dan Evans – who are in serious trouble when play resumes on Tuesday.

(Wimbledon is six hours ahead of EDT).
