Day 2 of Wimbledon LIVE is here and fans are thinking about a repeat of that final, but only if Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner earn it as the last of the 128 still standing. Amazingly, of the 10 top-ranked women only Jasmine Paolini has ever reached the Wimbledon final, let alone won it. That was 12 months ago, when she was beaten by the criminally underrated Krejcikova.
The grand slam of grand slams, the most major of the majors, Wimbledon is a special event. The replacement of the line judges with an automated system this year, however, feels like the loss of something sacred. Their immaculate get-up, characterful calls and even their occasional errors, prompting the communal slow clap that would meet every challenge, will be sorely missed.
While it's tough to envisage Draper mixing it up with the likes of Alcaraz and Sinner, his ascent to world No.4 has, for the first time since Andy Murray's heyday, raised hopes amongst the locals. Though he hasn't won a slam in nearly two years, Djokovic looks as likely a contender as anyone.
Gauff's French Open triumph and Iga Swiatek's extended slump have put Aryna Sabalenka under the cosh. Despite being virtually ever-present at the top of the rankings for the past 12 months, she only has the US Open title to show for it.
