Early on, Matteo Berrettini is also trailing Lorenzo Sonego, who currently has a 7-6(5) advantage on Court 12.

    As he faces Taro Daniel in his Wimbledon debut, Ben Shelton is in a dominating position. The play was interrupted with the American leading the Japanese 6-4, 4-2. Holger Rune, another rising star on the ATP Tour, has a 7-6(4) advantage over domestic wild card George Loffhagen.

    Wednesday's action will feature stars like Novak Djokovic, Daniil Medvedev, Thiem and Tsitsipas among many in action.
