3 Novak Djokovic d Olivier Rochus - 46 62 36 64 62
What a day! I can't remember a Day 1 as exciting as today - ever.
The roof was closed at one point to add light to the match.
It became the latest played match in Wimbledon history - ending at 10:58.
Nick of time too - play at SW19 is mandated to end at 11.
Novak next plays Taylor Dent for the 1st time. An upset may be in the offing.

7 Nikolay Davydenko d Kevin Anderson - 36 67 76 75 97
Nikolay is coming back from a layoff owing to a wrist fracture.
A long match like this couldn't have left it feeling very good.
Anderson came really close. Really really close.
This is the only Slam Nikolay has not been at least to the quarters.
Nikolay will next play Daniel Brands - they've never faced one another.
