Poor James Ward has really drawn the short straw. He's first on Centre tomorrow against Novak Djokovic.
Andy Murray starts his campaign on Tuesday.

Oh dear, James Ward has drawn the short straw hasn't he  Roger Federer is the one for me 😍 and at this stage hope he has a good first match then is able to make it through the first week. Its been a rough year for him so far will illness and injury  After that hopes will rise that he can go deep into the second week. Would be absolutely wonderful if he was to win this year, a dream come true, though I rather doubt it now sadly. Will be interested to see how Thiem, Goffin and Zverev get on. Am not a Murray fan, sorry .... Also not a fan of overly talkative commentators. Do we really need to know what they had for breakfast |

He did! Given he is 177 in the world, he put up a really good fight.  |

A fabulous win for Brit Marcus Willis against Ricardi Barankis of Lithuania. Willis played a blinder. He had to get through pre-qualifying and qualifying to reach the main draw. He's currently ranked something like 772 in the world.
Well done Marcus!

Anymore to come?
