    *Paolini 0-6 6-4 0-0 Montgomery

    Former Wimbledon finalist Jasmine Paolini of Italy has fought back from losing her first set 6-0 to win the second 6-4 and she's just started a deciding set against American qualifier Robin Montgomery on Court 12.

    Meanwhile in the men's draw, American fourth seed Ben Shelton has just got under way against Finnish qualifier Otto Virtanen on Court Two.

    And Australian fifth seed Alex de Minaur, whose partner Katie Boulter has lost earlier today in the women's first round, is taking on Argentina's Roman Andres Burruchaga on Court Three.

    I'm so happy for Swan because she's really been through it, through her whole career she's had injuries and you can really see now how good a player she is.

    She uses grass court tennis so well and I love the way she moves - she was attacking and keeping everything under control.

    Very well played Katie Swan.

    Katie Swan has done it!

    Her career has been derailed by injuries in recent years, but she's back on the big stage, winning her first Grand Slam match since 2018.

    She falls to the floor, her team are all hugging. What a moment.

    The first British player to win at Wimbledon in 2026.

    She's done it!

    Katie Swan wraps up the 6-4 6-4 win against Romania's Irina-Camelia Begu to become the first Briton to reach the second round at Wimbledon this year.

    There were some nerves at the end there, but the 27-year-old got there in the end.

  5. GB's Wendelken level after losing second setpublished at 12:29 BST

    Royer 4-6 6-3 0-0 Wendelken*

    British wildcard Harry Wendelken has dropped the second set against world number 75 Valentin Royer on Court 14 and that match is now all square at one set all.

    Wendelken, 24, made a superb start to his Grand Slam debut by winning the first set 6-4, but was broken in a lengthy eighth game of the second set and that proved costly.

    Begu 4-6 4-5 Swan*

    Katie Swan, serving to become the first Briton to reach the second round at Wimbledon this year, has had four match points saved by Romania's Irina-Camelia Begu.

    Can she make the fifth count?

    For Swan, you're there trying not to think of the score and finishing the match. You know you're serving well - it's just do the same thing and think the same thoughts. Get the serve in, look for the forehand and keep the feet moving.

    This would be huge for Swan in points and in prize money.

    It's great to see Katie Swan back playing well she's always been a quality player but has been ravaged by injuries. Similar style to Emma.

    Amanda Anisimova is safely through to round two of the women's draw.

    The American sixth seed, who lost last year's final to Iga Swiatek, did not face a break point in her match with qualifier Lina Gjorcheska of North Macedonia.

    That's probably the most we've seen Begu attacking for quite some time. Using the forehand well, getting up to the ball and taking it early.

    Following Katie Boulter's elimination, our attention turns to her compatriot Katie Swan, who has the chance to become the first Briton through to the second round at Wimbledon this year.

    The 27-year-old is serving for the match against Romania's Irina-Camelia Begu.

  12. Grant hoping for Williams meetingpublished at 12:17 BST

    All credit to Tyra Caterina Grant.

    At no point did the 18-year-old, on her Grand Slam main draw debut, allow Katie Boulter to build any momentum and really get the home crowd involved.

    Grant, who began playing tennis as a child after her mum saw Serena Williams play on grass, and grew up practising with current men’s world number one Jannik Sinner, is definitely a name to watch out for.

    Cool and calm throughout, she says she’ll be watching Williams’ Wimbledon singles return later today - and she is hoping that, at some point, they might get to play against each other.

    Boulter 4-6 2-6 Grant

    Another Brit falls as 18-year-old Tyra Grant takes her place in the second round at the expense of British number two Katie Boulter.

    Boulter never really got going and was unable to challenge Grant's impressive serving throughout the match

    As inconsistent as Boulter was, take nothing away from Grant, who looked perfectly at home on her first Grand Slam appearance.

    Madison Keys has lost the first set of her match against American qualifier Kayla Day on a tie-break, netting a forehand on Day's first set point.

    Work to do now for 26th seed Keys, who won the title on the grass at Eastbourne a few days ago.

    *Begu 4-6 2-4 Swan

    Katie Swan's serve has been so solid in this second set. Three service games, just one point dropped.

    She hasn't faced a break point all match and Irina-Camelia Begu doesn't look like she has any answers.

    Swan's team, who are sat in front of me, don't need to dish out any instructions - she knows what's she's doing.

    Maybe some tough love from LTA is needed. Fewer wild cards for the main draw and more for qualifying.

  17. Grant breaks againpublished at 12:08 BST

    Boulter 4-6 2-5 Grant*

    Katie Boulter looks dejected as she slips to 0-30 as the crowd try to encourage the British number two.

    A long forehand gifts Tyra Grant three break points and although she saves two, Boulter can't rescue the third as the Italian's forehand proves too hot to handle.

    Grant has the double break and will now serve for the match.

    *Boulter 4-6 2-4 Grant

    Harry Poole
    BBC Sport at Wimbledon

    Katie Boulter needs to stay rock solid on serve if she has any chance of getting back into this, but three double faults and a first serve percentage of just 44% so far in the second set is making her own games far from straightforward.

    The other major issue is that she has still not been able to create a break point - and time to do so really is running out now.

    She may only be 18, but Italian Tyra Caterina Grant, who also has decent support behind her from pockets of the crowd here, is hitting with real freedom as she edges closer to victory.

    Tyra Grant can't miss at the moment as she arrows a forehand winner past a stranded Katie Boulter before holding to love.

    You would never guess that this is the 18-year-old's first Grand Slam appearance going off this performance.

    She's looked right at home.

    Begu 4-6 1-2 Swan*

    Emily Salley

    Katie Swan, take a bow. What a way to break!

    The 27-year-old stays in a mammoth rally with a mix of slices and hard hits, but she ends it with a delightful cross-court drop shot that leaves Irina-Camelia Begu with no chance.

    Best not to get too far ahead of ourselves, but it's looking good in terms of Swan becoming the first British player to make it into the second round this year.
