Rafael Nadal, seeded second behind Roger Federer is all set to face Israel’s Dudi Sela on Centre Court. The Three-time champion Novak Djokovic, seeded 12th will also feature on Day two as he takes on Tennys Sandgren from America. There won’t be much problem for the two Tennis stars to kick start their Wimbledon 2018 campaign with a win.

First-week losses on multiple occasions puts a lot of doubt in minds of fans whenever Rafael Nadal takes court. While Nadal having to face another surprise in 2018, the 33-year-old, 67th-ranked Dudi Sela wouldn’t seem an appropriate person to produce an upset. He has lost all six matches that he has featured against the Spaniard. And when Rafa was winning titles in Rome and Paris earlier this year, Sela was playing Challenger events in Busan and Gimcheon.
The Spaniard has won the Wimbledon title twice, in 2008 and 2010, but has also suffered shock defeats against Lukas Rosol, Nick Kyrgios, Dustin Brown and Gilles Muller in recent years.
“My expectations are always high. I am not here to play the tournament; I am here to try to have good results,” he said.
Alexander Zverev, Juan Martin Del Potro, Dominic Thiem and David Goffin also play on Tuesday at the Wimbledon.
