I'll be dashing all over the grounds on 'Brit watch' once the play gets back under way. We've got Harriet Dart and Paul Jubb a set to the good while Billy Harris and Jan Choinski trail.

We've still got Katie Boulter, Jack Draper, Cam Norrie, Dan Evans, Jacob Fearnley, Fran Jones and Henry Searle to come.

You have to look back at the era that he [Andy Murray] was in, with [Roger] Federer, [Rafael] Nadal and [Novak] Djokovic.

To have won the amount that he has won, the Davis Cup, Olympic gold as well and the countless other tournaments in an era when we had three of the greatest players of all time.

He still managed to win three Slams and was unlucky not to win more. Quite remarkable.

I can see him [playing Doubles at the Olympics], if he can do it here, he has a chance to represent the country again and the Olympics means a lot to him.

It's just not the way you want to go out. Every athlete should be able to go out when they want to. Sometimes you can't and this is that instance.

I feel really sorry for him. He has had an amazing career but it would have been nice for him to go out in a different way.

Days like this are exactly why the roof was put on the show-courts.

We all know you cannot trust the British summer.

The lid was slid over Centre Court this morning and means there will be tennis to watch here as planned from 13:30 BST.

We'll be up and running with action on the two main courts shortly.

Play on Court One is scheduled to begin at 13:00 BST, with Centre Court getting going 30 minutes later.

Both courts will have the roof closed so even if there is rain outside, we will still have some play to enjoy.

Andy Murray was scheduled to be in action on Centre Court, but his withdrawal has seen Jack Draper's match with Elias Ymer move on to the main arena.

Centre Court (from 13:30 BST)

• WS: Jessica Bouzas Maneiro (Spa) v Marketa Vondrousova (Cze, 6)
• MS: Vit Kopriva (Cze) v Novak Djokovic (Ser, 2)
• MS: Jack Draper (GB, 28) v Elias Ymer (Swe)

Court One (from 13:00)

• WS: Elena Rybakina (Kaz, 4) v Elena-Gabriela Ruse (Rom)
• MS: Roberto Carballes Baena (Spa) v Alexander Zverev (Ger, 4)
• WS: Iga Swiatek (Pol, 1) v Sofia Kenin (USA)

Mags: Had a feeling he would choose to play doubles with his big brother rather than risk doing both. Or just playing singles. Think it's a lovely way to go out the pair of them playing together.

Operation Tinkerbell: So sad for this, though he knows his body, and best not to push when not ready... Hope Andy can have a great experience playing doubles with Jamie. And be right for the Olympics.

Lullaby1977: Sad day but what a player he has been, he has the heart of a Lion & had he been born into any other era he would undoubtedly, in my opinion, be standing here now with a vast number of Grand Slam wins.

Who knows what Andy [Murray] is going to do [when he retires] but I'm sure he will be involved in some way in British tennis.

Whatever way it is, it will be a huge benefit and he will be around these courts for a long time in some form or another and he will be great for the British game.

BBC Sounds

In honour of Andy Murray’s final Wimbledon and impending retirement, a BBC Sounds mini-series has been released and it is called Sporting Giants: Andy Murray.

Introduced by BBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller, the three episodes are re-versioned BBC 5 Live Sport documentaries celebrating the best years of Murray’s career: 2012, 2013 and 2016.

Relive Murray's incredible career with these three special documentaries.

Listen here.

Naomi Osaka made a winning return on her first appearance at Wimbledon for five years.

The 26-year-old gave birth to her first child, daughter Shai, a year ago and missed the 2021 and 2022 Championships because of mental health issues and injury.

Starting her 2024 campaign, she came through in three sets against Diane Parry on court two.

After the match, she said being back at Wimbledon "feels like a dream", before praising a Japanese fan in the crowd who supported her during the contest.

The current state of affairs on the outside courts. It was a glorious day yesterday but I guess you can’t have Wimbledon without a spot of rain.

Top seed Jannick Sinner is through to round two after success on Court One yesterday.

German Yannick Hanfmann more than played his part, taking a set off the Australian Open champion and making things pretty awkward at times.

Italian Sinner will play compatriot Matteo Berrettini next.

Have a look at how Sinner clinched victory.

I’m surprised Emma Raducanu thought she had won ugly. I thought she played consistently well, because when you feel like you’ve played ugly, it can also feel it’s because it’s how your opponent’s made you feel.

I think Renata did a good job in making it uncomfortable out there but credit to Emma, She came through, plating a solid match.

I think back to the first point – she didn’t do anything special but what she does really well is consistency. She plays each point consistently well, her level didn’t really drop off and that makes the difference between her and Renata.

The tapping of the head, I think there’s nerves, there’s emotion, I think she was encouraging herself to stay mentally tough and I think she achieved that. She was quite vocal, trying to get some of that emotion out, but those are good things to see.

It’s important to work through some of those emotions especially in the first round.

Within seconds of the rain being deemed too heavy to continue, the military-precision operation of pulling over the covers starts.

Chairs moved, net sagged, canvas heaved.

The outside courts are protected for however long this drizzle continues.

Play won't resume until 13:00 BST at the earliest.

Emma Raducanu says "winning ugly" on her Wimbledon return was all that mattered as she came through a testing first-round battle against Mexican lucky loser Renata Zarazua.

The 21-year-old Briton, who missed last year's tournament through injury, claimed a 7-6 (7-0) 6-3 victory on Centre Court.

Raducanu said she used England's dramatic 2-1 comeback win over Slovakia in Sunday's Euro 2024 last-16 tie as "motivation" to find a way past Zarazua on Monday.

"I was nervous, I think everyone could see that in my tennis, but at the end of the day you have to do whatever it takes to get over the line," said 135th-ranked Raducanu, who was given a wildcard to play in the tournament.

"Honestly, watching the football last night, it was winning ugly – it all counts."

Raducanu was supposed to be playing 22nd seed Ekaterina Alexandrova and thought she would be the "complete underdog" in her first appearance at the All England Club since losing in the second round two years ago.

Instead, the 2021 US Open champion found herself in a role reversal when the Russian withdrew through illness on Monday morning.

"For the past three days, I've been playing and setting up practice for similar opponents and then it is a change of plan," said Raducanu. "It took a little bit of adjusting and finding my feet. But I’d like to thank everyone for their support in the crucial moments. I enjoyed playing back here."

Britain's Emma Raducanu produced a gutsy performance against Mexican lucky loser Renata Zarazua.

Raducanu, the 2021 US Open champion, was supposed to be playing 22nd seed Ekaterina Alexandrova but she withdrew through illness on Monday morning.

Zarazua was drafted in and tested Raducanu with a nervy first set, but the Briton then breezed through the tie-break, before confidently taking the second set 6-3.

Have a watch of the highlights below.

Carlos Alcaraz opened the day on Centre Court with a hard-fought victory over Estonian qualifier Mark Lajal.

Alcaraz won the French Open last month and is hoping to make it back-to-back major titles.

Mark Lajal did play his part and after the match last year's champion said the qualifier's performance surprised him.

In the second round, Alcaraz will face Australian Aleksandar Vukic, who edged past Sebastian Ofner of Austria in a five-set thriller.

The Spaniard also featured in our shots of the day.

With no play going on at the moment, let's have a quick look back at some of the main stories from day one...

Prior to this downpour, Jan Choinski held to keep it on serve early in the second set. But it didn't come easy.

The Briton saved three break points, showing lovely touch as he advanced to the net and the ball dipped on him, dropping it just back over the net to save the second of them.

Luciano Darderi then held his serve just before the rain arrived.

For the first time in these championships we have a rain delay. All the outside courts come to an immediate halt as the groundstaff spring into action.

It only took 49 minutes for the first result of the day and it comes in the women's singles on court two with fifth seed Jessica Pegula thrashing fellow American Ashlyn Krueger 6-0 6-2.

It was a nightmare for Krueger.

Alex De Minaur has taken the first set against fellow Aussie James Duckworth.

Winner at Rosmalen on his road to Wimbledon, De Minaur's best performance at Wimbledon was a run to the fourth round in 2022.
