Murray will lock horns with Canadian 10th seed Denis Shapovalov in the third round as the 22-year-old advanced into the third round at Wimbledon for the first time due to a walkover from Spanish veteran Pablo Andujar.

Earlier, men's singles reigning champion Novak Djokovic cruised into the third round by beating Kevin Anderson from South Africa 6-3, 6-3, 6-3.

Women's singles second seed Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus came from one set down to defeat host player Katie Boulter 4-6, 6-3, 6-3.

The 41-year-old Venus Williams was ousted by Tunisian Ons Jabeur in straight sets in the second round. Her 39-year-old sister Serena Williams had to retire midway after injuring her leg in Tuesday's first-round match.
