Oscar Otte gives a ‘peace out’ sign to his box as he faces Andy Murray at the net for the coin toss.
Very cool. Will he be as composed when Murray is batting ball after back towards him?
Fantastic opportunity for the 27-year-old German on Centre Court against a home favourite.
Playing Zverev on Court Suzanne Lenglen in Paris will provide some experience of the big stage. This is a step up though.
Schwartzman 4-6 Broady
Diego Schwartzman - ninth seed - is ranked 132 places above Liam Broady in the world rankings.
When the man from Argentina broke the Brit early on he must have thought this would be a pleasant day at the office.
Broady had other ideas. He's engaged in a full-on baseline battle here. The shots are fizzed back and forth, the points are long and Broady fights back to force four set points, taking the last of them. Huge.
This is the second round by the way, so we're getting serious here...very serious.

Oscar Otte wins the toss and will serve first.

Dan Evans gets ahead of himself a little bit as the match looks to be won following his second break of the third set.
But Lajovic isn't done just yet, and breaks back at the second opportunity to trail 3-5.
Evans needs to stay focused...
Andy Murray v Oscar Otte
It's been a busy Wimbledon for Oscar Otte so far - and he's already got through four rounds (including three in qualifying) to get to this stage.
He needed a fifth set tie-break to see off France's Arthur Rinderknech in the first-round proper, a match that took three minutes shy of four hours.

So after a four-year wait, we’ve got a second singles match in three days for Andy Murray on Centre Court.
Many on Centre have gone to catch their breath, empty their bladder and perhaps refuel after that enjoyable Boulter match.
Don’t eat too much folks. Your stomach might not appreciate it if we’ve got another rollercoaster ride ahead.

Oscar Otte is ranked down at 151 but led by two sets to love against Alexander Zverev in the first round of the French Open before losing in five.
He believes that experience can help him against Murray, saying: “The first two and a half sets were probably the best sets of my whole life. I was playing unreal.
“I was talking a lot with my team afterwards, and we were trying to figure out why it wasn’t enough in the end. Of course Sascha [Zverev], he’s also an unreal player.
"Even though I lost against Sascha, I think I will be better prepared.”

Ian: Lovely moment when Sabalenka asked the crowd if they will support her in the next round. She received a huge cheer in response. Football fans take note!
Raducanu 7-6 (7-4) Diatchenko
Exceptional turn-around from Raducanu, who looked down and out on her main draw debut at 4-1 down, and she takes the first set tie-break 7-6 (7-4).

Dan Evans is keen to get this wrapped up at the earliest opportunity, as he moves 0-30 up on Lajovic's serve.
He gets a huge round of applause as he picks up a drop shot at the net and clips the line with a cross-court return from a tight angle for 15-40, before claiming a second break.
Evans to serve for the match, next.
Andy Murray v Oscar Otte
Oscar Otte was moved to tears by Andy Murray’s physical struggles but will try to end the Scot’s Wimbledon comeback next up on Centre Court.
Otte has followed Murray’s battle to recover from hip resurfacing surgery, with the 34-year-old playing singles at Wimbledon for the first time since 2017.
“Of course he’s huge in tennis,” said the German. “When I watched his documentary (Andy Murray: Resurfacing, which came out in 2019), actually, I was crying.
“It was so emotional and so inspiring. I’m probably talking for other players, too. He’s just a huge icon in the sport.
“It will be a pretty big match. The crowd probably won’t be on my side, but that’s OK for me, of course. I have my coach here, my girlfriend, I think it can be enough, but we will see."
Evans 6-3 6-3 4-2 Lajovic*
Dusan Lajovic is beginning to look like a beaten man, as Dan Evans effortlessly glides to the net to finish a point for 40-0 on his way to a comfortable hold.
The British number one is in the zone and now just two games away from the third round at Wimbledon.
Andy Murray v Oscar Otte
The key for Andy Murray will be how well he has recovered physically from the drama of his four-set win over Nikoloz Basilashvili.
It was a positive sign that the Scot was on the practice courts on Tuesday having recalled what happened the last time he reached the second round of a grand slam at the US Open last summer with a five-set victory over Yoshihito Nishioka.
Murray said: “I actually did pretty well in the first round against Nishioka and felt fine that evening, then I woke up the next day and could barely walk. My groin was really painful and I didn’t recover from that match at all.”
Murray is looking to reach the third round of a slam for the first time since limping through to the Wimbledon quarter-finals four years ago.
Evans* 6-3 6-3 3-2 Lajovic
A lovely, low-bouncing sliced backhand gives Lajovic too much to do and sets up two break points for Dan Evans.
Lajovic survives the first, but at the end of a long baseline rally the Serb goes long - and Evans is in total control now!
Watch the best moments and key points as Andy Murray sealed his place in the second round of Wimbledon after a three sets to one victory over 24th seed Nikoloz Basilashvili.

Andy Murray v Oscar Otte
This was Andy Murray's reaction after his epic first-round win against Nikoloz Basilashvili.
Murray appeared in complete control, two sets and 5-0 up, but then lost the third set 7-5, before taking the fourth to advance into the last 64.
What has he got in store for us today against German qualifier Oscar Otte? Probably a whole host of drama, excitement and passion. Can't wait.
It's due to start on Centre at 18:13 BST.
