Defending champ and the current Wimble Womble quote of the day, Rafa Nadal, has his campaign underway on Centre Court and world No.91 Michael Russell gave him an almighty scare in the first set. The American broke to find himself 4-2 up but the Spanish bear broke back not once, but twice, and took the set. He's currently 4-1 up in the second.
Elsewhere, seed no.23 Venus Williams beat Akgul Amanmuradova, an Uzbekistani lady of whom I have never heard. The US giant won 6-3 6-1 and will now face Kimiko Date Krumm, the conqueror of our brave fallen Brit Katie O'Brien.
