Kyle Edmund vs Jaume Munar, Wimbledon 2019

And welcome to coverage of the first-round men's single match between Kyle Edmund, the 30th seed and British No 1,  against Spain’s Jaume Munar.

Simon Briggs, the Telegraph tennis correspondent, asked in his preview this morning: Why aren’t more people talking about Edmund even as candidate to make it to the final week?

The answer, he says, is his "precarious physical state over the past eight months. Only last October, Edmund was closing in on a top-10 ranking after landing his first ATP title in Antwerp. Since then, he has had his tonsils out, and developed a chronic knee injury – while also losing an inspirational coach when “Fidde” Rosengren announced his retirement in February.
