Seventh seed Milos Raonic overcame Tommy Haas, while US Open champion Marin Cilic is in action on day three.

Canadian Raonic recorded the third-fastest serve in Wimbledon history as he set up a third-round match against Nick Kyrgios, who defeated Juan Monaco of Argentina 7-6 (7-5) 6-3 6-4.

The match was a farewell to Wimbledon for Nieminen, who is retiring at the end of the season at the age of 33.
