LONDON – Several Canadian tennis players will have to wait at least another day before playing their first-round matches at Wimbledon.
Wet weather has hampered early play at the Grand Slam competition with rain forcing the suspension of several matches Tuesday.
Milos Raonic of Thornhill, Ont., Rebecca Marino of Vancouver and Bianca Andreescu of Mississauga, Ont., had their respective first-round matches pushed back to Wednesday.

Denis Shapovalov of Richmond Hill, Ont., and Carol Zhao of Richmond Hill, Ont., remained on Tuesday’s schedule.
Radu Albot of Moldova had a 7-5, 2-2 lead on Shapovalov when their first-round match was suspended Monday due to darkness. Zhao had yet to begin her opening match against Germany’s Tamara Korpatsch.
There were mixed results for Canada on Day 1 of main draw competition. Leylah Fernandez of Laval, Que., won her first-round match while Montreal’s Felix Auger-Aliassime, the No. 11 seed, dropped his opener.
