Nadal 6-3 0-0 Sela*

Alice: As a die-hard Rafa fan, I'm delighted to see how pumped-up, determined, & sprightly Rafael Nadal is looking thus far. After a wretched run at Wimbledon in recent years, it's time for some Rafa magic on the grass I feel.
No warm-up - no harmpublished at 15:29 British Summer Time 3 July 2018

BBC Sport at WimbledonThis is Rafael Nadal’s first match since winning a record-extending 11th French Open title... no warm-up grass events doesn’t seem to have done him any harm at all. He took the momentum from that break and whizzed through his service game to take the first set.

Mmmm, pavlova? Send some this way please Johanna!
Konta will be watching England tonight!published at 15:26 British Summer Time 3 July 2018
Anna Thompson
BBC Sport at WimbledonBreaking news from Johanna Konta's media conference - she will be watching the England match tonight.
She said: "Most definitely. Whether it’s my choice or not as my boyfriend is very excited about the match, I will be watching."
The British number one said she saw the Belgium v Japan match last night which she described as "heartbreaking" for the Japanese who lost in the final minute of injury time.
In other Konta news, she revealed she made pavlova for the first time on Sunday - a strawberry, mint and elderflower one to be precise - and seeing as she's got some elderflower cordial left she's planning on baking a raspberry and elderflower traybake later today. Save some for us!
Game and first set - Nadalpublished at 15:26 British Summer Time 3 July 2018
*Nadal 6-3 Sela
No messing from Rafa, leaping into a winning forehand as the world number one takes control of this first set.
He's going to do more than take control, he's going to gobble it right up for the lead in this first-round tussle. Dudi Sela looks at the sun for an excuse.
But it's pure power from Nadal. He takes the first set.
Game and second set - Taylorpublished at 15:26 British Summer Time 3 July 2018
Taylor 0-6 6-4 Bouchard
We're going the distance.
Eugenie Bouchard frames a return horribly long and that means Britain's Gabriella Taylor has indeed forced a decider.
A clench of the fist from the Briton.
On we go.

Boris Becker
Three-time Wimbledon champion on BBC TVThe question for Nadal will be how much from his clay-court style can he implement into his grass-court form, and how much does he have to change?

Nadal 4-3 Sela*
Nice. Rafael Nadal strings Dudi Sela around the court like a puppet and eventually puts the Israeli out of his misery with a stinging volley.
Rafa storms to 40-0 and nails an ace to hold serve.
We're steaming through this one...

*Nadal 3-3 Sela
Some Dudi Sela facts... he is bidding to reach the Wimbledon second round for the fourth time in what is his 10th appearance at the All England Club.
His best performance was reaching the round of 16 in 2009, losing to Novak Djokovic, and he has suffered six first-round defeats at SW19.
But he's holding his own against the world number one at the minute, rattling through a hold to love service game.

Nadal 3-2 Sela*
All in the eyes from Nadal, as he flicks a forehand winner back across court.
Sela gets the Spaniard on the run with a deft drop volley, but Nadal nonchalantly clips it over the 33-year-old. It's dropping... out.
Nadal wipes a stand of hair behind his sweatband and storms into the net to slice a volleyed winner.

*Nadal 2-2 Sela
That's high, wide and not at all handsome from Rafa Nadal - when you're that powerful, and get it slightly wrong, it can go very wrong. Think the Spaniard almost broke his own racquet in half.
Dudi Sela scrambles to 30-15, struggles with a dipping Nadal shot at the net, but closes out to hold serve after a Nadal challenge.
