He is off to an absolute flyer here.

Rain is hammering down so hard that you can hear it beating the glass roof of the media centre.
Everyone on the uncovered outer courts quickly dashed off, with the covers regimentally dragged over the clay in a matter of seconds.
Play continues on only Chatrier and Lenglen, which have been indoors all day thanks to the roof.

Discussion about the gender imbalance in the French Open night sessions has been an annual theme over the past few years.
So why has nothing changed? Because, despite the pressure, Roland Garros organisers don't want it to.
There is only one match in the primetime slot, which is shown across France on Amazon Prime.
The strategy differs to the Australian Open and US Open who both put on two night matches - but then run the risk of stretching play late into the early hours of the following morning.
Having just one match is the chief reason which tournament director Amelie Mauresmo - a former women's world number one - points to when defending her choices.
She fears the shorter three-set format of the women's game could lead to the punters not getting enough value for money.
Marozsan v Alcaraz
Image source, Getty ImagesWarming up on Court Philippe Chatrier now are men's second seed Carlos Alcaraz and Hungary's Fabian Marozsan.
Spain's Alcaraz said he "expected a worse level" from himself after beginning his French Open title defence with a straight-set victory against Italian qualifier Giulio Zeppieri on Monday.
The 22-year-old is aiming to become the first man since compatriot Rafael Nadal in 2020 to retain the Roland Garros title.
"I expected a worse level for me, honestly," world number two Alcaraz said.
"The first round for every tournament is never easy to adapt your game to the conditions and get used to it.
"I'm just really proud about it. It is great to have these feelings in the first round."
Image source, Getty ImagesPolish fifth seed and four-time French Open champion Iga Swiatek, who faces Britain's Emma Raducanu later today, said she remains "happy" with the French Open's scheduling of night sessions.
"Every year we talk about it. My position didn't change. I like playing days, so I'm happy that I'm done and I can have a longer rest," said Swiatek.
American second seed Coco Gauff, meanwhile, suggested the evening session could be contested by more women, but echoed Swiatek's position of not wanting to play too late.
"I think if there is only gonna be one match at 19:15 BST maybe there could be a women's match," said Gauff.
"But if they wanna start the night session at 19:15, I'm sure most girls on tour would rather not play after a men's match and have to go on at 23:00 or 00:00."
Image source, Getty ImagesOn Monday, French tennis chief Gilles Moretton defended the scheduling at Roland Garros, which sees no women feature in 19 consecutive night session matches since 2023.
"Sometimes for the night session, we need to put the better match, we think could be for the spectators," said Moretton.
"Maybe we will have a few, I have no idea, a few female matches on the night sessions. We'll see. Depends on the schedule, who is playing who, which will be the best match."
Image source, Getty ImagesOn Tuesday, following her first-round exit, Tunisia's three-time Grand Slam finalist Ons Jabeur criticised Roland Garros chiefs for the unbalanced scheduling.
"In Europe, in general, it's unfortunate for women's sports in general. Not for tennis but for in general," said Jabeur.
"I hope whoever is making the decision, I don't think they have daughters, because I don't think they want to treat their daughters like this.
"It's a bit ironic. They don't show women's sport, they don't show women's tennis, and then they ask the question, yeah, but mostly they (viewers) watch men. Of course they watch men more because you show men more. Everything goes together."
A potential row also started to brew yesterday surrounding scheduling in the night sessions at the French Open - and not for the first time.
This evening Danish 12th seed Holger Rune take on American world number 137 Emilio Nava, while on Thursday British fifth seed Jack Draper faces unseeded Frenchman Gael Monfils.
Draper and Monfils will contest the 19th consecutive night session singles match at Roland Garros between men, a run dating back to 2023.
The French Open hosts evening sessions - the slot most coveted for television audiences - until the semi-final stage.
The last women's singles match to be played in the evening at Roland Garros was Aryna Sabalenka's fourth-round win over Sloane Stephens in 2023.

Image source, Getty ImagesIt's day four of the French Open and that means we've got some tasty second-round ties coming up.
After a British wipeout in the first round last year, the Brits have already surpassed expectations this time around, with six through to round two at Roland Garros for the first time since 1973.
Only one Brit is in action today, though, but what a tie it promises to be. Emma Raducanu versus three-time defending champion and 'queen of clay' Iga Swiatek.
But before then, we have the men's defending champion in action as Carlos Alcaraz takes on Hungary's Fabian Marozsan.
