The rain was in charge on Day 2 of Wimbledon. It started to pour about an hour into the first wave of matches and just didn't stop, and outside play was eventually suspended for the rest of the day. The only matches that were played as normal were those on the two covered courts.
Those courts are where the top players typically have their matches, but since it's Round 1, the competition wasn't exactly even. But the crowd still got to see some of the game's best players in action, even if the action wasn't the non-stop tennis thrill ride they'd been hoping for.Carlos Alcaraz, the No. 1 seed, looks 100% ready to make a deep run at Wimbledon.
He's a joyful player, but he was serious and focused against Jeremy Chardy, despite Chardy being ranked No. 542 in the world. Alcaraz wasted no time setting the pace, leaving Chardy in the dust pretty quickly in the first two sets . Alcaraz did encounter some trouble in the third set when Chardy finally got comfortable put up a fight, tying the score 5-5. But Alcaraz didn't panic and won the final two games of the set, ending his 6-0, 6-2, 7-5 win with an emphatic ace.
