Wimbledon 2022: Rafael Nadal, Iga Swiatek Advances Into Second Round, Serena Williams Suffers Shock Exit – in Pics

Serena Williams suffered a shock women’s singles first-round defeat to Harmony Tan after returning to competitive tennis following a long 364-day gap. Williams, a 23-time Grand Slam winner, bowed out with a 7-5, 1-6, 7-6 (10-7) loss to 115th-ranked Harmony Tan of France. No. 1 Iga Swiatek extended her winning streak to 36 matches by beating Croatian qualifier Jana Fett 6-0, 6-3. In the men’s field, 2021 runner-up Matteo Berrettini withdrew because of a positive COVID-19 test. Another past finalist, Marin Cilic, pulled out Monday for the same reason. Men’s winners included Rafael Nadal, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Taylor Fritz and unseeded Nick Kyrgios. Felix Auger-Aliassime bowed out against serve-and-volleying American Maxime Cressy.
