Each day, we'll preview three must-see matches at Wimbledon.

UPDATE: Frances Tiafoe defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3. Stay tuned for more updates on Day 1 at our live blog; with additional coverage coming from Steve Tignor.

Stefanos Tsitsipas vs. Frances Tiafoe

Tsitsipas comes to this Slam as something of a question mark, for a couple of reasons. He has proven himself on clay and hard courts, but not yet on grass. He’s just 3-3 at Wimbledon, and two of his three trips to SW19 have ended in first-round losses. We also don’t know how he’ll react to his five-set loss to Novak Djokovic at Roland Garros. Will he be boosted by his first trip to a major final? Or deflated that he let a two-set lead slip? If it’s the latter, he’ll want to put it behind him right away, because Tiafoe is a worthy first-round opponent, who just won a Challenger event on grass. The Greek and the American have never played in a full-fledged ATP match, but Tsitsipas won when they faced off in a Challenger in 2017, and again in the Next Gen Finals the following year. Tiafoe should make it interesting, but Tsitsipas should win. Winner: Tsitsipas

Iga Swiatek vs. Su-Wei Hsieh

Someone at every Slam has to get the Hsieh treatment, right? Will Swiatek be the unlucky victim of her deceptive web of finesse this time? They’ve played once, at Roland Garros last fall, and Swiatek made quick work of the 35-year-old Taipei native. But Hsieh’s low-lying spins and flat, two-handed ground stokes work better on grass than they do on clay; they were enough to take her to the fourth round at Wimbledon in 2018. As much as Hsieh can do with her racquet, the result of this match will be on Swiatek’s strings. If she’s hitting her forehand bombs, there probably won’t be much Hsieh can do about them. But if Su-Wei can disrupt and frustrate her, this will be a good test of Swiatek’s still-evolving ability to adjust. As well as an interesting last match on No. 1 Court. Winner: Swiatek

Andy Murray vs. Nikoloz Basilashvili

Is this a welcome back to Wimbledon for Murray, or a swan song? Centre Court’s favorite son will return to that arena for the first time in singles since 2017, when he hobbled off with a hip injury that would end his run at the top of the men’s game, and nearly end his career. Now Murray is 34, and Grand Slam titles are a long shot at best, but he says he’s enjoying the challenge of making the best of what he has left. Basilashvili will definitely offer a challenge. The Georgian is five years younger than Murray, and currently ranked 90 spots higher at No. 28. He also hits with relentless pace. But Murray is still a two-time champion here, while Basilashvili is a middling 5-5 at Wimbledon. The crowd likely won’t be able to will Murray to another championship, but maybe they can help him win a match. Winner: Murray
