RESULTS UPDATE

Some results coming in now from the first batch of matches... 

Last year's finalist Kevin Anderson was a comfortable winner against Pierre-Hugues Herbert, who is partnering Andy Murray in the men's doubles - a 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 win for the South African. 

On Court 2, Stan Wawrinka has also strolled through, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2, against qualifier Ruben Bemelmans. Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam 'Stan the man' hasn't won, but he's off to a good start in 2019. 

Other notable results include Queen's champion Feliciano Lopez winning 6-4, 6-2, 6-4 against Marcos Giron, and 23rd seed Roberto Bautista Agut steaming to a 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 victory.

On serve so far on Centre - Djokovic 2-1 Kohlschreiber*

A reminder that the German did beat Djokovic this year at Indian Wells...

[1 July 2019 13:31 · Kieran Jackson]

Novak Djokovic 4-1 Philipp Kohlschreiber*

A few errors from the no.1 seed, and Philipp has two break back points...

But Djokovic finds his rhythm again, and clinically sees out the game with an ace which catches the line.

*Novak Djokovic 4-2 Philipp Kohlschreiber

Philipp holds efficiently, putting the pressure straight back on Djokovic, who has been a tad inconsistent so far here...

[1 July 2019 13:38 · Kieran Jackson]

Novak Djokovic 5-2 Philipp Kohlschreiber*

Despite a sloppy error at 15-0 by Djokovic, he takes control behind his first serve, and is now just a game away from the first set. 

[1 July 2019 13:44 · Kieran Jackson]

Novak Djokovic 5-2 Philipp Kohlschreiber* (40-40)

Philipp saves a break point at 30-40 as Djokovic goes wide with a passing shot, but he can't see the game out as he nets a forehand. 

Back to deuce...

[1 July 2019 13:46 · Kieran Jackson]

*Novak Djokovic 5-3 Philipp Kohlschreiber

Philipp eventually sees the game out, as Djokovic's erratic form on his forehand continues... 

However, the defending champion will now serve for the first set.
