At this Stage
Seeds are supposed to buy protection from days like this. Janice Tjen, playing her first-ever Wimbledon match, beat 22nd seed Leylah Fernandez 6-1 7-6(3) without dropping serve, facing exactly one break point all afternoon and erasing it. For Fernandez, the 2021 US Open runner-up, the defeat extends an odd anomaly: she has still never been past the second round here. Tjen's reward was a second-round meeting with Daria Kasatkina — and the debutante would stretch that one to three sets, taking the opener in a tiebreak before Kasatkina wore her down.
