07:45 CET - Well, here's something we didn't expect to be writing this morning... Novak Djokovic (36) is heading home after suffering a shock 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 defeat to world number 123 Luca Nardi (20)!
It's hard to put into words just how big an upset that is. Nardi had lost in the second round of qualifying and only entered the main draw due to an injury to another player, and has now become the lowest-ranked player ever to beat Djokovic at a Masters 1000.
