The non-seeded first round on the men’s side may not have quite as much star power on opening day.
But there was still a throwback matchup between former No. 1 Andy Murray and fellow 30-something, former top-10 David Goffin. Which Murray won easily.
As for the latter part of the day, a lot of it got washed out because of the rain.
It’s not supposed to rain again this fortnight. So it’s a positive that there are days off between rounds in these early stages.
