  1. Evans 7-6 (7-4) 5-2 Lopez*

    Right then, Dan Evans is one game away from taking a two-set lead. Feliciano Lopez is serving to stay in this second set.

  2. Evans 7-6 (7-4) 5-2 Lopez*

    A clenched fist pumping in the SW19 sky, Dan Evans is enjoying this now and looking in the mood.

    Feliciano Lopez stings another return long and then slices a backhand the same way as Evans holds to back up his break a moment ago.

  3. All about equilibrium!

    A break of serve to love and a wry smile from Evans because he knows he's not playing that well. Lopez's equilibrium has been well and truly messed up!

    They're saying 18 unforced errors from Lopez... but it feels more than that.

  4. Mertens 6-1 5-3 Dart*

    Jonathan Jurejko
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    A ball girl has just arrived with a bunch of bananas. Elise Mertens will hope there isn’t another changeover to eat them.

    A double fault allows Harriet Dart to pull the Belgian’s service game to 40-30 and then the Briton lands a winner on the line for deuce.

    But a backhand long from Dart, then another wide, lets her opponent off the hook.

    Now Dart serves to stay in Wimbledon…

  5. Katie Falkingham
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    That’s a big break for Dan Evans.

    Feliciano Lopez challenged the decision to call his ace out, but Evans knew, waggling his finger.

    The British number one is slowly but surely taking control here.

  6. Evans breaks

    *Evans 7-6 (7-4) 4-2 Lopez

    And Dan Evans breaks! Lopez challenges the call but knows the inevitable is coming... that's out. A break to love.

  7. Evans 7-6 (7-4) 3-2 Lopez*

    What was going through Lopez's head there? Looked like he changed his mind on a routine drop shot and ends up cupping it into the net. The Spaniard is chantering away to his team after another miscue and Dan Evans brings up 0-40 - three break points for the British number one!

  8. Return tactics against Lopez the leftie

    John Inverdale
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Lopez's serve is one of his big weapons and he's plied it on the tour for years. Evans is just anticipating, so before the ball is even hit, he's gone with that split step.

    That's a big gamble though - if Lopez sees him out of the corner of his eye...

  9. Pliskova takes control

    Pliskova* 7-5 4-3 Zidansek

    After her early struggles, Karolina Pliskova is now in control against Tamara Zidansek.

    Having battled back to take the first set from 5-2 down, the Czech is a break up in the second and closing in on a place in the second round at Wimbeldon.

  10. Evans 7-6 (7-4) 3-2 Lopez*

    Dan Evans isn't renowned for being a huge server but he rattles his way to a love hold with a series of efforts that tenderise the strings of Feliciano Lopez. "Come on, Evo", says Evo.

  11. Patience is the key

    John Lloyd
    Former GB Davis Cup captain on BBC One

    Patient from Evans there - thought he was going to come in but he elected to stay back

  12. Williams takes the first set

    Buzarnescu 5-7 Williams

    There had been nothing to separate Venus Williams and Romanian Mihaela Buzarnescu deep into the opening set, but it's the American who has made the breakthrough when it matters.

    Buzarnescu had five break points, including three in the 11th game of the set, but Williams held to lead 6-5 before taking her second set point opportunity in the following game and taking the first set.

  13. *Evans 7-6 (7-4) 2-2 Lopez

    Feliciano Lopez throws down an ace to whistle through another quick hold, no messing about here.

  14. *Mertens 6-1, 4-2 Dart

    Jo Durie
    Former British number one on BBC TV

    Great play by Dart, loved the dropshots, but Mertens seemed to lose a bit of focus for the first time there. Very interesting.

  15. Mertens 6-1 4-2 Dart*

    Jonathan Jurejko
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Hello! Harriet Dart gets one of the breaks back.

    That buoys the Court 18 crowd too, with the atmosphere being deathly quiet before.

    In other news, I think I felt a spot of rain…

  16. Evans 7-6 (7-4) 2-1 Lopez*

    Dan Evans is yet to drop serve and maintains that record with another snappy hold.

  17. *Mertens 6-1 4-1 Dart

    Jonathan Jurejko
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Make that two games away. A limp break-to-love sees Mertens ease into a 4-1 lead in the second set.

    I would say that’s game over. But then remember what we saw Andy Murray do yesterday.

    Ok, ok, that’s Andy Murray and he’s incredible. But you never know…

  18. Katie Falkingham
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Most of the “come on” shouts are coming from Dan Evans himself!

  19. *Evans 7-6 (7-4) 1-1 Lopez

    Dan Evans twirls on the baseline in frustration at cupping a forehand return into the tape as Feliciano Lopez holds, but the British number one is a set to the good.

  20. Mertens 6-1 3-1 Dart*

    Jonathan Jurejko
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Dart isn’t getting rattled yet, despite being an uber competitive and - sometimes - quite spiky character.

    Not sure if the relative serenity is a good thing or not.

    After having a break point in the second game, the Briton instead had her serve broken in the next and is three games away from an early Wimbledon exit.
