As for the Canadian ladies, Marina gets Siniakova in round 1 (not too bad, but still a tough match) while Bianca faces Cristian (good draw) and Leylah will take on Bronzetti (pretty good draw as well).

Leylah with a great week in Eastbourne, but loses the final to Daria Kasatkina 6-3 6-4. Has to be a huge boost of confidence heading into Wimbledon.

If Shapo can get by Jarry (who I'm hearing has been battling an illness/infection), his draw isn't too bad and he could make some noise.

Shapo takes the opening set 6-1 over Jarry. Really impressive stuff from Denis.
Edit: Denis continues his fine lay into set 2 winning it 7-5. Of note, only two double faults for Shapo through two sets, that's what we like to see.

Shapo advances to round 2 in straight sets 6-1 7-5 6-4 over jarry. 9 aces to 3 double faults in the match, that's a fine ratio.

Yes sir, that first set there wasn't much between the two as Cristian went shot-for-shot with Bianca. Set 2 a little different story as Bianca took over in dominant fashion.

Court 17 is the place to be if you want to see Canadians in action on Tuesday at Wimbledon.

Defending women's champ Marketa Voudrousova eliminated in round 1 earlier today. You have to go all the way back to 1994 and Steffi Graf for the last time that happened.

The tall lanky Frenchman Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard just eliminated Sebi Korda in five sets. Nobody wants to take on GMP with his big serve on these grass courts.

Bweh just went out in the first round of Wimbledon to Francisco Comesana in four sets. If you're wondering, yes, he did have a couple of meltdowns on court today and needs to talk to someone to get his head straight, just not in a good place currently.

Leylah takes the opening set 6-4 over Bronzetti - I think Leylah was a little nervous to start the match and made some untidy unforced errors, but she found her groove midway thorough the set and won three straight games from 4-3 down.

Leylah takes care of business 6-4 6-3 over Bronzetti. I would give her a 7.5 out of 10 on today's match, pretty good, but definitely some room for improvement.

Felix now up 2 sets to love on Kokkinakis and Marina Stakusic is on court 17 taking on Siniakova (on serve early in set 1).
