That's it. Dan Evans is out of Wimbledon, the Brit losing in four sets. That's the fifth Brit to lose today, with Johanna Konta, James Ward, Kyle Edmund and Dan Cox also making first-round exits.

It's tie-break time on court two with Dan Evans going a mini-break down early on against Andrey Kuznetsov of Russia. Evans must win this set if he is to avoid becoming just another Brit to lose in the first round of Wimbledon. At the changeover, Kuznetsov leads 4-2.

Britain's Heather Watson, who reached the semi-finals at Eastbourne last week, is second on court three tomorrow. She plays Ajla Tomljanovic once Lleyton Hewitt and Michael Przysiezny are done and dusted.

Dan Evans has a sniff of an opportunity of a break in the ninth game of the fourth set, but berates himself when he sends a forehand long. Before he knows it, the game is lost and he must now serve to stay in the match at 5-4 down in the fourth set against Kuznetsov.

One final paragraph from Britain's Naomi Broady, who has reached the second round: "I quite like that people are intrigued by my naughty side because I'm quite boring and it makes me sound interesting. I haven't done anything since then but people still talk about a jokey picture I posted on Facebook a few years ago. I learned a big lesson about social media."

"I have big issues in my game I need to sort those out before having a psychologist. I need to sort out the many unforced errors first. This time last year I was researching how to become an au pair, and was looking at Paris, because I couldn't afford to play tennis but I won a qualifying round and that got me through for a while, then I had some wins in the doubles and that helped me pay for the singles. The difference a year can make is amazing. I think I'll be fine for a year or so now. It's very satisfying knowing that it's me that has achieved this."

There's just one Brit still out there and that's Dan Evans. The 24-year-old is battling hard out on court two with the vast majority of the crowd sticking around to see if Evans can pull off a five-set victory. We're with serve in the fourth set, with Kuznetsov 4-3 ahead and with a two sets to one cushion.

Naomi Broady has earned a cool £43,000 for winning her first round match at Wimbledon. She'll get a chance to increase that total when she plays either former world number one and 16th seed Caroline Wozniacki or Shahar Peer.

"I have not played either before," she says. "They both have had amazing careers. Hopefully, I'll play well and enjoy the match. If I play well, who knows what will happen."

More from Britain's Naomi Broady: "Not having LTA funding means I don't have to report back to anyone and it has made me hungrier. If I don't win I don't have any money. I have to fight harder on court."

Former champion and sixth seed Petra Kvitova has raced through her opening match, dropping just three games as she beats Andrea Hlavackova 6-3 6-0.

Britain's Naomi Broady, who has reached the second round with a 2-6 7-6 (9-7) 6-0 win over Timea Babos, said: "I fell twice, the second time heavily on my wrist and had pins and needles throughout the tie-break. It wasn't too bad because I don't really use my left-hand. I just wanted to make sure I didn't damage it further."

Number eight seed Victoria Azarenka,, external a 6-3 7-5 first-round winner over Mirjana Lucic-Baroni, has tweeted: "Thank you everyone for the support. Great to be back playing at Wimbledon."

There are cheers over on court two as Britain's Dan Evans wins the third set 6-3 to reduce the deficit to two sets to one against Andrey Kuznetsov.

There's another British defeat over on court 12 as Kyle Edmund goes down in three sets to Andreas Haider-Maurer of Austria.

"That was sensational from Novak Djokovic, against a good opponent who tried anything to get into this match somehow. It looked like it was going to be three bagels at one stage. Golubev at least made something of the third set - but from the first point, Djokovic was in majestic form. He was in a different class today."

Novak Djokovic, speaking to BBC Sport's Rishi Persad: "It was a great start, especially in the first two sets. Credit to Andrey for coming back in the third, but I cannot be happier with the performance. It's never easy coming into a tournament, and you can never underestimate any opponents. But I started extremely well and played a very good game.

"I don't know why somebody would have concern about my physical condition - I had two weeks off after the French Open, and that's more than enough time to get ready for a grass court tournament."

Top seed Novak Djokovic plays Radek Stepanek, who beat Andy Murray at Queen's earlier this month, in the second round. The veteran Czech played some super tennis in West London and should provide a sterner test.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has been pegged back but Austria's Jurgen Melzer on Court One, the French 14th seed losing the second set 6-3 to pull the match level. It's going with serve in the third set with Tsonga leading 3-2.

Britain's Dan Evans is showing some fight out on court two, the Britain breaking the Andrey Kuznetsov serve to lead 5-2 in the third set, having lost the first two.

On court 12, it's a long way back for Kyle Edmund, with Andreas Haider-Maurer leading 6-3 7-6 (7-4) 4-2.

And that, supporters and relatives of Andrey Golubev, is why Novak Djokovic is number one seed and the bookmakers' clear favourite. Tougher tests to follow, but as leg-looseners go, that was as dominant as they come.
