    At 15-30 Tiafoe gets his shot selection completely wrong. A drop-shot from the baseline right into the net!

    Two break points.

    Glastonbury headliner Olivia Rodrigo is among the standout names in the Royal Box on Centre Court for this one.

    England managers past and present - Roy Hodgson and Thomas Tuchel - are also watching on.

    And Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley, who looks particularly stern here.

    A very competitive first set goes the way of defending men’s doubles champions Henry Patten and Harri Heliovaara, but British double act Dan Evans and Henry Searle pushed them all the way.

    Evans and Searle have settled quickly into their entertaining master-and-apprentice style relationship, but the second seeds raised their level when it mattered there.

    In addition to all the great matches continuing around the grounds, the sun is out and blue skies sit above SW19 after this morning’s weather disruption. All is well again at the All England Club.

    GB qualifier Tarvet gets the better of Alcaraz in 'brilliant' rally

    Ollie Tarvet gets off the mark and it's no more than he deserves.

    The crowd are up on their feet as the Brit ends a long rally with a drop shot & volley combination to go 40-30 up.

    Carlos Alcaraz fires his next return wide to give Target his first hold.

    And Norrie takes the next point, too. 0-30. This feels like a big moment in this match.

    Big game for Tiafoe now.

    Great start from Norrie, who finds the line to win a battle at the net. 0-15.

    Beautiful, tip-top hold from Norrie. On his second serve the Briton forces Tiafoe wide and then backhands into the opposite corner.

    Evans/Searle 6-7 (4-7) Heliovarra/Patten*

    The 2024 champions prevail in the tie-break as Henry Searle is unable to return a booming forehand from Henry Patten.

    Brits Dan Evans and Searle pushed their opponents all the way in a close first set but they have nothing to show for it as both sets of players take a seat and regroup.

    Well where did that come from?

    Some people close to me had started discussing their plans for after this match, thinking that Cameron Norrie was not far off victory after getting the break but moments later and it is very much advantage Frances Tiafoe.

    Best settle in as we could be here a while longer yet.

    Huge game this and Cam starts it on the backfoot with a wide backhand chip. 0-15.

    Tiafoe is now the one in control of this set. The pressure swings on to Cam Norrie after the American holds to 30.

    Norrie will serve to stay in the set.

    What looked like a simple hold turned into a difficult one for Carlos Alcaraz.

    Ollie Tarvet, having been 40-0 down, takes it to deuce but the Brit hits a couple of sloppy returns to let the Spaniard off the hook.

    He may not be on the board yet, but Tarvet is playing really well.

    A throaty 'Vamos!' indicated how hard Carlos Alcaraz had to hang onto his serve in the opening game.

    But he wasn't too discouraged by fluffing first serves and forehands.

    The jackhammer is quickly out and chiselling marks in the Centre Court grass.

    Ollie Tarvet has seen Alcaraz's pace on the telly, now he's feeling it on his racquet.

  16. Around the groundspublished at 15:58 British Summer Time 2 July

    Cristina Bucsa has booked her spot in the third round after beating 22nd seed Donna Vekic 6-1 6-3.

    Vekic reached the semi-finals last year while Bucsa has never made it past the second round.

    The crowd on court four have been treated to a great match so far and there will be a tie-break to decide the first set after Brit Dan Evans thumps a looping forehand long.

    It was in the last set. Anyway, Norrie saves the first break with a strong serve.

  20. Three break points Tiafoepublished at 15:54 British Summer Time 2 July

    *Norrie 4-6 6-4 6-3 4-3 Tiafoe

    Momentum changes so quickly in tennis. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Tiafoe is up 0-40.

    Norrie's recovered from 0-40 in this match before...
