    Kyle Edmund might be out, but that's not the last of the British action on centre court today of course.

    There is some doubles to come later involving a man named Andy Murray - you might have heard of him.

    Darren Pattison: A great performance from both Kyle and Stefanos. Stefanos Tsitsipas is going to be a phenomenon in the years to come I can feel it.

    I don't think Kyle has been able to practise enough. His knee injury has probably held him back a bit.

    He'll be especially disappointed with all the forehands he missed because that is normally his biggest weapon.

    Top seed Stefanos Tsitsipas said:

    "It's been a dream playing at Queen's. I watched it as a kid.I'm glad that I come here as the number one seed. People love me and support me despite not being British - I like that.

    "I like grass. I haven't played on it too much coming from Greece.

    "You cherish the grass-court season, you try to get the most out of it because it's a short period of time you have being able to play on grass."

    That win means Tsitsipas will have to play again today.

    He faces France's Jeremy Chardy after Stan Wawrinka and Nicolas Mahut have played on centre court.

    This is the view which the VVIPs get. And lucky BBC journalists.

    Tennis fans will recognise some of the faces up here on the tournament director’s balcony.

    At the moment they include former players like Mark Philippoussis and John Lloyd, current doubles players Ken Skupski and Bruno Soares and the tournament director himself, Stephen Farrow.

    Like any good host he’s making sure everyone is enjoying themselves.

    Six match points saved. Tsitsipas' return goes long.

    Edmund pins the top seed back behind the baseline and Tsitsipas finds the net. The Brit finally gets a chance to close out the game.

    Edmund is keeping the Queen's crowd on their toes. He lands the ball just on the line to save a fifth match point.

    But then Edmund hits another shot out and Tsitsipas gets another go at winning this match.

    Tsitsipas' backhand drifts wide and we're back to deuce.

    Edmund constructs a lovely point, hitting powerful shots at his Greek opponent. Then he hits the ball into the net... He's handing out match points like sweets.

    Apart from blood and thunder tennis, nothing gets the Queen’s crowd excited more than a fan taking a catch like they’re on the outfield at Lord’s.

    One suited gent behind the baseline doesn’t even lift his bum off his seat to take a one-handed catch from a framed shot by Tsitsipas.

    Ben Stokes would have been proud of that one.

    Smart serving from Tsitsipas gives him control of the game as Edmund struggles to make any inroads on the top seed's serve.

    Tsitsipas holds. Edmund must serve to stay in the set again.

    *Tsitsipas 6-3 5-5 Edmund

    It's a nervy hold for Edmund. Tsitsipas steps up the intensity as he goes for the win.

    Edmund goes 0-15, then 15-30 down, but recovers and holds. The Brit is still in this.
