    Stojsavljevic just showing us what she can do.

    But it's taking 11-12 shot rallies to break Bencic down, and you have go to do that time and time again.

    This is a very harsh lesson after the first couple of games.

    You have to learn, learn, learn.

    Mochizuki 6-3 1-0 Basing*

    We're keeping our eyes out for any signs of a British upset this morning but there isn't much to shout about just yet.

    On court 14, Britain's Max Basing, who is making his Wimbledon debut, has lost the first set 6-3 against Japan's Shintaro Mochizuki.

    Belinda Bencic is on a roll now. That's 10 games in a row that she's won.

    The frustration is starting to show for British teenager Mika Stojsavljevic, who is shaking her head and muttering under her breath after every point lost.

    The crowd are trying to get behind her, but there's a Bencic superfan sat a few seats away from me and he's doing his part for the opposition.

  5. Jodar taking chargepublished at 11:58 BST 29 June

    *Jodar 6-3 3-2 Gill

    Harry Poole
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Rafael Jodar may only be 19, but, at six feet and three inches tall, the Spaniard towers above the net any time he’s dragged into close combat by Felix Gill.

    His height also means his serve doesn’t half pack a punch.

    Jodar wasn’t best pleased as he was disturbed during his service motion by people chatting behind in the stand beside him a short while ago - a quick glare soon stops that - but he’s celebrating soon after when he outdoes Gill in an exchange of exquisite drop shots.

    That was the point of the match so far, and further evidence that Jodar is really beginning to move through the gears now as he takes charge of set two.

  6. Pegula wins first set but Rublev behindpublished at 11:56 BST 29 June

    Pegula 7-5 0-0 Vidmanova*

    All going well so far from American fourth seed Jessica Pegula who has taken the first set 7-5 against the Czech Republic's Darja Vidmanova.

    Pegula is the highest seed currently out on court at Wimbledon in the women's or men's draws.

    It's not going as well for Russian men's 12th seed Andrey Rublev, who has dropped the first set 6-4 to unseeded countryman Roman Rishatovich.

    *Bencic 6-2 0-0 Stojsavljevic

    Ah. After such a bright start, Mika Stojsavljevic finds herself a set down. Understandably, she heads off court for a breather.

    She's not far off Bencic, but the 11th seed slowly found her rhythm, while unforced errors started to creep into the British teenager's game.

  8. Brit watchpublished at 11:52 BST 29 June

    So there are currently three Brits in action around Wimbledon right now.

    In the women's singles, 17-year-old Mika Stojsavljevic is taking on 11th-seed Belinda Bencic, where, having been a break up, the young Brit has just lost the first set 6-2.

    In the men's singles out on court three, debutant Felix Gill has a tough opening match against the rising Spanish star Rafa Jodar, and an already difficult task has got more difficult after losing the opening set 6-3 and now a break down early in the second.

    On court 14, qualifier Max Basing is also needing to bounce back early as he finds himself a break down in the first set against Japanese qualifier Shintaro Mochizuki.

  9. Bencic wins first setpublished at 11:52 BST 29 June

    *Bencic 6-2 0-0 Stojsavljevic

    After that early break for Britain's Mika Stojsavljevic, Swiss 11th seed Belinda Bencic has taken control of their first-round match to win the first set 6-2.

    You can watch this match or follow any of the others on all 18 courts at Wimbledon here.

    Jodar 6-3 0-0 Gill*

    Both players out contesting the opening match on court three have great stories behind them.

    It is a poignant occasion for Felix Gill as he makes his Wimbledon debut.

    Despite all the hype around him over recent months, this is also a first Wimbledon appearance for Spain’s latest breakout tennis star Rafael Jodar.

    The 19-year-old Jodar was ranked 677th in the world 12 months ago but his meteoric rise since means he begins as the 23rd seed at the All England Club.

    Arriving in London fresh off a run to the French Open quarter-finals, halted only by eventual champion Alexander Zverev, he’s already impressing on his latest slam appearance, where his namesake, Rafael Nadal, won two titles.

    Jodar 6-3 0-0 Gill*

    Briton Felix Gill's hopes of an upset on his Wimbledon debut have taken a blow with Spanish 23rd seed Rafael Jodar taking the first set 6-3.

    Jodar, 19, is playing in only his third Grand Slam and reached the quarter-finals at the French Open earlier this month.

    Court 18 is one of the bigger outside courts at Wimbledon, but there's not a spare seat to be seen. Fans clearly want to see what new British talent is out there by watching Mika Stojsavljevic in action.

    Great Britain's Billie Jean King Cup captain, Anne Keothavong, is also watching on from the balcony that overlooks the court.

    It is a subject that has been shrouded in controversy over recent months, with players protesting over prize money at Grand Slams.

    The total prize fund at this year's Wimbledon will be £64.2m, following the largest annual increase in the event’s history at 20%.

    The singles' champions will each take home £3.6m with first-round losers paid £80,000.

    More than £6m was set aside for the qualifying competition - an increase of 25%.

    At Wimbledon, the players have now ended their boycott of media duties over prize money after "constructive meetings" with the All England Club.

    Making your Wimbledon debut is always an emotional occasion for any player - but it is a particularly poignant for British wildcard Felix Gill today after a challenging time in his life.

    The 24-year-old from Redditch was introduced to tennis by his father Matthew, who died from blood cancer in the summer of 2022.

    Gill's mother Elizabeth was also ill at the same time with leukaemia.

    More happily, she has been in remission for about five years and will be watching on court - along with his brother Zach and sister Lily - as 220th-ranked Gill hopes to cause a huge shock against fast-rising Spanish teenager Rafael Jodar.

    "They were a year apart of when they were diagnosed, so there was a lot of trips to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham during those times," Gill said.

    "Looking back, with how difficult it was, it was amazing that I was able to be OK during those times."

    Gill added his dad would have been "over the moon" to see him stepping out on the Wimbledon grass.

    "He always wanted his children to be better than him, so he'd be so happy," added the British number 11.

    Can you believe it's been 10 years since Andy Murray lifted the men's singles trophy at Wimbledon for a second time?

    Home players won a record five of that year's prizes at the All England Club on the greatest weekend in British tennis history.

    A decade on we've revisited that glorious weekend through the eyes of those who were there.

    There's a warm cheer for 17-year-old Brit Mika Stojsavljevic as she heads to the baseline to get things up and running on Court 18.

    And there's an even bigger roar when she brings up a break point in the opening game against Belinda Bencic.

    But the noise level goes up another notch as Bencic, a former Olympic champion, fires long.

    A solid start by the teenager!
