Looks like you were right to be worried.
I could just tell today. He's got another chance if he can't break here. I really hope he breaks though.

Well done Rafa. He will be pleased he didn't need a 3rd set with a men's and mixed doubles still to be played today.

I see the old Rafa is back - still can't serve out a match to save his life!

Delighted he's still in the singles let alone the other two events. Vamos Rafa!

He's not at his best but he doesn't need to be, yet.

Yeah, I know. I was just thinking how he can never serve out matches easily - always seems to need an insurance break. Just like old times.

And 3 matches tomorrow as well, depending how the partnership with Garbine pans out.

Fabio looks different. More tanned and leaner. Married life obviously suits him. Hope it's calmed him down a bit.

Bellucci takes first set. A big Brazil flag in the stands.

Mirza and partner went out in the first round.

Hingis/Timea will face either the silent H's or Kasatkina/Kuzzy

Will the Italian Federation give Foggy the Paire treatment? He clearly has no interest in being here today.
