So what have we learned from the first day of Wimbledon? Well Andy Murray is certainly in good form, as is top seed Novak Djokovic, the strength and depth of British tennis needs some work and I should have known better than to take my umbrella out of my bag to save weight. Ah well, onwards and upwards. That's it for today. Thanks for your company. Until tomorrow, it's goodnight from me.

If you thought today's schedule was good, you'll be bowled over by tomorrow's which sees Rafael Nadal, Serena Williams, Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova and Eugenie Bouchard all in action. Lick. Those. Lips.

While Naomi Broady made it two wins for Brits, Johanna Konta, James Ward, Dan Cox, Dan Evans and Kyle Edmund couldn't follow suit. Read our British player round-up for all the scores.

So what a day it's been, eh?

There were comfortable victories for top seed Novak Djokovic and defending champion Andy Murray.

On the women's side, second seed Li Na and former champions Petra Kvitova and Venus Williams also won.

And for the most part, there was warm and sunny conditions.

It's raining at Wimbledon! But luckily much of the schedule has been completed.

Jurgen Melzer gets his wish as the umpire declares that play is suspended with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga just one game away from victory. The court is covered in super-quick time and the stadium begins to empty quickly. It's been a long day - seven hours in fact - if you've sat on that court for the duration.

Fourth seed Agnieszka Radwanska has had to hang around all day for her first-round encounter with Andreea Mitu but the players are now on court and locked at 2-2 in the first set.

"Jurgen Melzer's complaining about the light. He says it's too dark, but it's only 10 to eight. He hasn't got many fans here and he's not going to win any more by behaving like this. The umpire's making a phone call. He should probably say to Melzer: 'I'm sorry, I can't get a signal right now.'"

"Why do we have to play when it's dark?" asks Jurgen Melzer as they sit down at the changeover with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga leading 4-3 with a break in the fifth set. The umpire is on the radio. Is he asking for some guidance from above? Well in the meantime, he calls time, which means we go on, for now.

Dominika Cibulkova beats Aleksandra Wozniak 6-1 6-2 to bring an end to play on Centre Court.

Jurgen Melzer wishes that was the case out on Court One in his match against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. The Austrian pleads with the umpire to stop play because of bad play, but he is having none of it.

The stadium is filling up, if anything, as spectators who have got tickets through the resale pile in.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has broken serve in the fifth and deciding set on Court One, with Jurgen Melzer signalling to his box that he's got a stomach upset.

"Did it!!!!" That's Russia's Maria Kirilenko,, external getting straight to the point after causing an upset by beating American 18th seed Sloane Stephens in the first round earlier.

South African 20th seed Kevin Anderson,, external on the other hand, is slightly wordier after beating Aljaz Bedene of Slovenia to reach round two: "Played a good match today! There was some nice South African support out there! Very happy to be through to the second round at Wimbledon."

BBC TV commentator Ronald McIntosh: "That was a spirited performance from Dan Evans - full of fight, and with flashes of brilliance, but there was not enough consistency overall. As a result, he's still searching for his first win at the All England Club."

It's been a day of highs and lows for the Brits with Andy Murray beginning the defence of his title with a comfortable win over David Goffin while British number four Naomi Broady sprung a surprise with a three-set win over Hungary's Timea Babos.

There was not such good news for James Ward, Dan Cox, Kyle Edmund, Johanna Konta and Dan Evans who all lost.

Four more Brits will be in action on Tuesday. British number one Heather Watson, who reached the semi-finals in Eastbourne, begins her campaign against Ajla Tomljanovic, along with compatriots Daniel Smethurst, Samantha Murray and Tara Moore.

"All these matches are tough. It's more about the experience of playing. All of the attention gets focused on two weeks at Wimbledon, but throughout the year, everyone is playing Future (tournaments) or Challengers. The wildcard is great as a stepping stone to breakthrough. If someone did make the fourth round, it's huge points, which boosts their rankings and helps them get through to other tournaments."

"It went OK, I got off to a good start, but struggled a bit at the end of the first set. Glad I got my game back to take it to a tie-break. I thought I was unlucky to lose the second. He played a good third set. Lots of experience to take from it, so it's not all bad."

We're into a fifth set over on Court One with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga winning the fourth set 6-2 against Jurgen Melzer.
