Alcaraz has got quite a following and I think him and Sinner are both the leading young hopes now.

not as young but Im watching Rublev, reckon he will win a 1000 level event this year, maybe not quite a slam.

Cam got an early break. Im trying to be impartial. But come on Dan!

6-4 set to Cam. Looks like Dans unforced error count was the big thing, needs to cut those down. Cam more solid.

Dan Evans every agitated. Having a go at anyone and everyone with his mutterings. Umpire won't have it so got to be careful.

First set Norrie 6-4

Battle of Brits well and truly started

Alcaraz on comparisons with Nadal. "I try to focus on me, not on social media (...) I don't hear the comparisons with Rafa."

RBA, Goffin, Hurkasz all out so far today from seeds

Yes, Dan was given a friendly warning and then a formal warning for verbal obscenity. And to rub salt into the wound, he gor a time warning at the same point. Dan is make way more errors than he last week.

Jan · Hall of fame

Dan levels. One set all.....

stevemcqueen · Futures qualifying

Against the run of play, Dan breaks serve at 5-4 and takes the set. Dan looked really suprised. I certainly was!

Dan won only 6 of 24 receiving points in that set.
