Rafael Nadal won his first match rather easily in 3 straight sets, as did Milos Raonic. This still puts them on track to play each other if they both win their next match.
Andy Murray needed 4 sets to defeat his Spanish opponent. While it's just one match, Murray needs to make sure not to let it set a tone for him for this tournament. He has a tendency to get down on himself early, and he doesn't end up using that negativity for motivation to try harder and play better. Instead it usually causes his defeat to come quicker. He can be difficult to watch when he's having one of those bad days, and I do feel bad for his team when he yells at them all the time.
The rain at Wimbledon came early on Day 1, and they finally got to use the retractable roof over Center Court. The roof has been ready to use since 2009, and (while it's been used a few times each year) perhaps this might be the year we see widespread usage of it.
If you're a Wimbledon fan like I am, try listening to the radio broadcast of matches on their internet radio channel. It can be found here.
