Wimbledon 2021: Andy Murray beats Basilashvili in four sets – as it happened

After Novak Djokovic came from behind to beat Jack Draper, Andy Murray defeated Nikoloz Basilashvili in an emotional four-setter on Centre Court

And there you have it. Andy Murray, four years after his previous appearance at Wimbledon, is into the second round after his four-set win against Nikoloz Basilashvili. Murray will be a bit annoyed that he was unable to shut the match down and finish it in three sets: he was 5-0 up, after all, and had two match points to seal the victory. But Basilashvili - the 24th seed - showed his quality to storm back into the match and win seven consecutive games to force a fourth set. But maybe, just maybe, the intensity of the emotion that resulted from winning the fourth set in those circumstances can inspire Murray to even greater things over the next fortnight? The crowd were in raptures, and Murray has missed that feeling. Haven't we all? Thanks for reading, and emailing, and see you next time.

All over on Court 1, the British No 2 is out, having passed up one match point along the way ...

The victorious Ahn speaks to the BBC: I was relishing every point, I was so amped, when I found out we were moving to Court 1, this is just about as good as it gets ... hopefully it's not once in a lifetime, but it was a really special moment for me, regardless of the result."
