Stat of the day

Brit watch
Murray had rushed back from rupturing ankle ligaments in Miami, but probably wished he had not bothered after a 6-4 6-4 6-2 defeat to fellow veteran Stan Wawrinka. Earlier Draper suffered his worst Tour level defeat in his longest ever match. The 22-year-old was a hot favourite to see off Dutch qualifier Jesper De Jong, a player ranked 137 places beneath him at 176 in the world, but he was beaten in five sets over four hours and six minutes.
Fallen seeds
Women: Barbora Krejcikova (24), Veronika Kudermetova (29).
Men: Nicolas Jarry (16), Ugo Humbert (17).
Who’s up next?
No doubting the hottest ticket in town. Rafael Nadal, the 14-time champion, meets German fourth seed Alexander Zverev in what should be a late afternoon classic.
