Sinner is the favourite to win the men’s title in the absence of injured two-time Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz.

Defending women’s champion Iga Swiatek was beaten in the third round by Alexandra Eala.

What happened to British players in the singles draw?

Eighteen of the 19 British players who started in the singles draws were knocked out in the first two rounds.

The 10 losses by British players on the opening day of their home Grand Slam was the most at SW19 since daily records began in 2000.

Katie Swan, Jacob Fearnley, Jan Choinski and Fery made it through on the opening Tuesday but a further five players fell to opening-round defeats – meaning the total number of first-round losses for home players was the most since 16 exited in 1988.

Six British players were ranked high enough to receive direct entry into the singles draws, but Choinski was the only one to reach the second round.

Emma Raducanu and Jack Draper pulled out prior to their first-round matches because of injury, while men’s number one Cameron Norrie lost to Michael Zheng in five sets and Francesca Jones and Katie Boulter also departed.

Fery is the last Briton in the singles.

What is the prize money this year?

The total prize fund at this year’s Wimbledon will be £64.2m, following the largest annual increase in the event’s history.

The singles’ champions will each take home £3.6m with first-round losers paid £80,000.

More than £6m has been set aside for the qualifying competition – an increase of 25%.

Overall prize money has increased by £10.7m, with leading players welcoming the 20% increase in prize money as a “genuine and significant step forward”.

However, they still expanded their protests about prize money – limiting the time they offered at the media weekend.
