Highlights of Wimbledon 2017, second day

Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic progressed to the second round at Wimbledon after their opponents retired early in their matches, leaving the Centre Court crowd disappointed on Tuesday. Seven-time champion Federer led 6-3 3-0 when Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov withdrew with an ankle injury, while Djokovic's opponent, Martin Klizan, pulled out at 6-3 2-0 down after 40 minutes of play. Last year's runner-up, Milos Raonic, cruised through to the second round with a 7-6(5) 6-2 7-6(4) win over Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff. The sixth seed struck 20 aces and fired the fastest serve of this year's tournament at 141 mph to seal the victory on Court One. Women's top seed Angelique Kerber, who opened Centre Court proceedings in the absence of title holder Serena Williams, looked far from her best but claimed a 6-4 6-4 win over American qualifier Irina Falconi. On Court One, third seed Karolina Pliskova needed just over an hour to record a 6-1 6-4 win over Russian Evgeniya Rodina.
