Great start-all the best in next round💪👏👊👑❣️🍀
Great serves, excellent returns. If Rafa keeps this up, he may have his long overdue 3rd Wimbledon title and the 18th GS. Then Federer will definitely have a problem. Good luck for Rafa in the next round. Rafa only needs to make it to the QF to stay at number one.
VAMOS RAFA Rafa you are the GOAT of tennis.
Wow Rafa, those serves💪💪💪
Rafa so very well done,
love and prayers for next game,
