WIMBLEDON, England — It’s Manic Monday, tennis’ everyone-in-the-pool lollapalooza. All 32 remaining singles players were in action today…and here’s one dispatch from each of the 16 matches.
• Spotting her opponent 12 years and 307 ranking spots, Coco Gauff, the 15-year-old phenom, held her own against Simona Halep. But after six straight victories here—three in qualifying—she finally started acting her age and fell 6-3, 6-3. Halep looked uncomfortable playing a teenager, Amanda Anisimova, in Paris. Today, she was all business.
• A bubbling theme this tournament: The Big Three are awesome; but the bench is quite thin in men’s tennis right now.
