BRIT WATCH

-

KATIE BOULTER has her work cut out against Naomi Osaka in the first match on Court 2, starting at 11.30am. Despite being the No 18 seed, the Japanese is a year younger than Boulter at 20. She is a huge hitter and is reckoned to be a serious talent. How the British No 3 copes today will be a good barometer of her progress. She is one of only two home hopes left in the women’s draw, along with Jo Konta, but Boulter said: ‘I don’t feel any pressure. I’m the underdog. ‘I’m just going to go out there and enjoy every second of it and use the experience to be the best that I can. ‘I think it’s going to be a challenge in this game and I’m looking forward to it.’
