Andy Murray’s winning run on grass came to an end at Queen’s in a minor setback before Wimbledon.
The event in west London marks a ramping up of preparations as the summer grass court swing intensifies with the year’s third major fast approaching.
Five-time winner Murray had shown form in Surbiton and Nottingham, but Aussie Alex De Minaur was too good on Tuesday.
There is a lot of talent in the draw still with British interest in Cam Norrie and Ryan Peniston.
Here’s everything you need to know.
