Emma Raducanu takes on Elise Mertens for a place in the Wimbledon third round while Carlos Alcaraz and Coco Gauff are also in action on day three of the Championships.
Raducanu was happy to be “winning ugly” as she marked her Wimbledon return with a scrappy win over the lucky loser Renata Zarazua on Monday, but Mertens, the world No 33 in singles, is a step up in class for the former US Open champion.
Raducanu will take to Court No 1 for her second round match, as will defending Wimbledon champion and US Open winner Gauff, who both enjoyed comfortable straight-sets wins in their opening ties.
After earning her first Wimbledon win in six years, Naomi Osaka returns to Centre Court to face the American 19th seed Emma Navarro, while the all-Italian clash between World No 1 Jannik Sinner and former Wimbledon finalist Matteo Berrettini is the match of the day.
