Through she goes. Easy enough in the end. The other lady wasn't bad for a "Lucky Loser", though.

Yeah good strokemaking and touch around the net. It's always consistency that counts in the end.

Kartal wins, too. Can't say I've heard of her before but she could easily crush my skull with her arms.

Mostly a good day for British women. British men... not so much.

Yeah, so Wimbledon have moved Jack Draper's match to Centre Court.

Women's champion Marketa Vondrousova out. Not a bad first ever Grand Slam or grass win for Jessica Bouzas Maneiro.

The first defending Wimbledon ladies champion to lose in the first round for 30 years.

Jacob Fearnley first British male to make it into Round Two (I think).

Boulter through in straight sets but it was a struggle at times.

My other half was at Wimbledon this week. Last time he sent me away up the hill so he could meet Patrick Stewart and this time he got a wave from someone called David Beckham?

He had a spare ticket, but I wasn't allowed to go for some reason...
