but kyle edmund was not to be blown away on home turf. kyle edmund breaks back.n the second set. but for every break, there would be a slip—up. at grand slams, even the best get the jitters. kyle edmund exposed. gael monfils talk out chances the way he knows best. brilliant, centre court used every inch. game, set, match, gael monfils. i had chances here and there but ultimately, you know, you wa nt to there but ultimately, you know, you want to win the last point of the set and i didn't. being british, growing up, watching tennis at wimbledon, to get the chance to that early, it's something you always remember. in the end, straight sets look simple, but shoots of promise of the college. comfort and this court with time. maybe a bit more time needed for kyle edmund and we canjoin in the hot evening, and the roof, with jamie baker, former british number two like kyle edmund. you've been in his shoes. what does he need to do to pull up his socks and take on those top 20 players and just get over the line kuenssberg he was so close. he is really close. he is someone

kyle edmund coming through against a fellow brit, that must‘ve been difficult.higher ranked player and you are the higher ranked player and today kyle edmund was so much higher rank than his opponent, 860 the world so in many ways you could see it as a great draw. but there is extra pressure and also extra spice around playing a fellow brit. and alex ward has been hitting a lot with andy murray in the past so it took some time to settle down in the match. but then he stormed through. but it is never easy to play against a fellow brit, i can tell you. sad to see alex ward go and sad we had to see alex ward go and sad we had to pick between them. let's have a look at what else has been happening at wimbledon today. one of the big crowd favourites here, juan martin del potro of argentina needed seven, yes seven match points to beat australia's tha nasi kokkinakis. del potro, no stranger to marathon matches, played that epic olympic final against andy murray last year remember, and eventually won in four sets and faces ernests gulbis of latvia next. but there was pl

earlier in the day on centre court, britain's kyle edmund failed to become the fifth british singles player to reach the third round. he lost in straight sets to frenchman gael monfils. cricket now — and on his first appearance as england test captain, joe root has scored a century against south africa. england ended the day 357—5. our sports correspondent andy swiss was watching the action. the first test of the summer and of an era. joe root arrived all smiles and promptly won the toss. tails, england. easy, this captaincy, isn't it? but as his predecessor helped prove, it's anything but. alastair cook gone for three as wickets soon tumbled. crisis? enter the skipper. he lived dangerously at first. an early swish — would he be caught? well, he should have been. a rueful root and how he made south africa pay. magic and maturity in equal measure as he led the england fightback, and soon after tea he reached his century. a kiss of the badge, an ovation from his team — leading by example has rarely felt better. but that was just the start, as thrillingly he hit the accelerator. catchin

he he a bit too much for kyle edmund.k, 7—6. 6—4 he lost the second set and kyle edmund was 3—0 up in the third but gael monfils came back to win that won 6—4. in the end, a straight sets win for the number 15 seed and sadly kyle edmund is notjoining his compatriots in the third round. but better news for in other fan favourite, novak djokovic, who went through? he did get through. he had to work a bit harder than his first match when he only played a0 minutes than his opponent retired. still a straight setsjob than his opponent retired. still a straight sets job for the three—time champion, beating adam pavlasek, world number 136. djokovic safely through, three—time champion going for his fourth grand slam. he's trying to recover some form, he lost in the third round here and he hopes history won't repeat itself this time. very u nfortu nately repeat itself this time. very unfortunately finally, we have to discuss a very bad looking injury foran discuss a very bad looking injury for an american player. there is a double

kyle edmund, he couldn't make it five players? he could not.less, it still stands, this is her best showing at wimbledon in 20 years, for british players through to the third round but sadly, kyle edmund will not be among them, he played well against gael monfils, the fla m boya nt well against gael monfils, the flamboyant frenchman, a tough task for kyle edmund. he kept himself in the first set, lost on a tie—break, 7-6, the first set, lost on a tie—break, 7—6, just for the second, and was 3-0 7—6, just for the second, and was 3—0 up in the third but the experience and the flamboyance and inventiveness of gael monfils, trick shots, a slam dunk in there as well, he was really keeping the crowd entertained and some of those trick shots paid off as gael monfils fought his way back into it to win. sadly, kyle edmund notjoining those for other brits. novak djokovic, pretty much plain sailing? not as his first—round match, remember his opponent retired and he only spent 40 opponent retired and he only spent a0 minutes on court but a pretty clinical

the most interesting match from a british perspective that it is kyle edmund against alex ward and edmund a former british player and wimbledon quarter finalist, jo durie. tel is a bit more about both this matter, ward and edmund, and roger federer who we will see later. i think kyle edmund was a bit nervous when he went on record. it is difficult playing a fellow brit at wimbledon because you both think there is such a big chance to get through, lots of prize money and points to be won. roger federer, what can i say? i think the roof might come off when he goes on court, it will be a fabulous day of tennis. he is third on centre court, following novak djokovic in what is an afternoon of two former champions here at you. the weather is not looking too bad either. so far so good at wimbledon, a bit of cloud bubbling up but generally it is warm out there and i suspect it is warm out there and i suspect it will stay dry during the day. 24 degrees, tomorrow warm still, probably the best day of the week but thursday a chance of some thundery showers. not everywhere is seeing beautiful weather,
