  3. On the outside courts...

    Matteo Berrettini has a two-set lead over Marton Fucsovics, but is a break down in the third.

    Gael Monfils has lost the second set and he is now all square with fellow Frenchman Adrian Mannarino.

    Jasmine Paolini is 5-4 up in the first set against Sara Sorribes Tormo - that one is still on serve. Tie-break incoming?

  4. The Lajal serve is too good, Alcaraz at full stretch can only send the return far too long, 2-1 Lajal.

  5. Alcaraz had just missed with a similar forehand but this one finds the corner for 1-1 in the tie-break.

  6. Alcaraz pulls a forehand from the baseline wide to give Lajal the first point of this first set tie-break.

  7. Alcaraz 6-6 Lajal

    Emily Salley
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    That was one brilliant service game from Mark Lajal.

    On more than one occasion, you can see the chalk flicking up off the grass as the Estonian finds the lines with pinpoint precision.

  8. Tie-break time

    Alcaraz 6-6 Lajal

    Some superb serving from Mark Lajal, with three aces in a row, before a lightning forehand past Carlos Alcaraz and we're heading to a first set tie-break.

  9. Game and first set

    *Altmaier 4-6 Fery

    Arthur Fery does it!

    The British wildcard holds his nerve.

    A messy first set comes to a close in emphatic style as Fery races up to the net and powers a backhand volley into the corner,

  10. Alcaraz 6-5 Lajal*

    Mark Lajal has just served to stay in the set and now will have to do that again, after he just couldn't get to an Alcaraz drop shot.

  11. Game and second set - Medvedev

    *Kovacevic 3-6 4-6 Medvedev

    Back-to-back aces to seal the second set for Daniil Medvedev.

    He needed to use a challenge to get the second of them but it was shown to be clipping the line so the fifth seed is now just a set away from the second round.

    Aleksandar Kovacevic had his moments in that set but he requires something special to come back from here.

  12. Wawrinka breaks back in dramatic style

    *Wawrinka 6-3 4-5 Broom

    Charles Broom was ever so close to clinching this second set.

    While on set point, he hit a ball into the net from close range and will be kicking himself as he sits down.

    Wawrinka breaks with a cross court backhand.

  13. Tiafoe recovers from two sets down to progress

    Tiafoe 6-7 (5-7) 2-6 6-1 6-3 6-3 Arnaldi

    An awesome effort from 29th seed Frances Tiafoe to reach round two, having lost the first two sets against Matteo Arnaldi of Italy.

    The American clenches his fist while sitting on his chair - a big, big win.

  14. 'Stars have to align for Lajal'

    *Alcaraz 5-5 Lajal

    Nick Kyrgios
    Australian tennis player on BBC Two

    Quite nimble for a big fella.

    Mark Lajal is getting the crowd involved. The stars have to align today.

    His ability to steal time away from his opponent is very, very good.

  15. Fery breaks

    Altmaier 4-5 Fery*

    Arthur Fery hits straight back.

    That's the fifth break of serve between the pair in this opening set with three of them going on Fery's favour.

    The Brit is now serving for the set as they change ends.

  16. *Alcaraz 5-5 Lajal

    Emily Salley
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    You could just feel the tension building in that monster rally. First it was Carlos Alcaraz on top, then Mark Lajal turned defence into attack.

    The defending champion runs from one side of the court to the other until a lucky clip of the net works in Lajal's favour and Alcaraz nets.

    The crowd loved that.

  17. 'Lajal toe-to-toe with Alcaraz'

    *Alcaraz 5-5 Lajal

    Naomi Broady
    British player on BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Sounds

    Lajal is just playing that well. For me the question is can he sustain this for the course of five sets because he’s pretty toe-to-toe with Alcaraz.

  18. *Alcaraz 5-5 Lajal

    An excellent rally, the best of the match so far, with both men asking searching questions of the other. Lajal would have been set point down if he had lost that point, but Alcaraz eventually fires a forehand into the top of the net, before Lajal roars out in delight when he does hold his serve shortly afterwards.

    Alcaraz was two points away from the set, but now we're back at 5-5.

  19. 'Kovacevic will start to feel tension'

    *Kovacevic 3-6 3-5 Medvedev

    Todd Woodbridge
    Former Wimbledon doubles champion on BBC Two

    A lower-ranked player or somebody like Aleksandar Kovacevic who is out on this stadium for the very first time, they start to feel tension and that makes it harder to move as quickly. All of those things happen at the back end of a set.

    That's where we often start to see someone like Daniil Medvedev flourish and the scoreline falls in his favour.

  20. Altmaier breaks

    *Altmaier 4-4 Fery

    Daniel Altmaier is back to his feet and gets a warm round of applause from those watching on Court 16.

    Arthur Fery tries to run him across the court but Altmaier is moving freely enough as play resumes.

    Altmaier fires a forehand down the line to break. Remarkable considering he was in agony just moments ago.
