Defending champion Marin Cilic was cut down to size by Argentine Diego Schwartzman in the second round at the Queen's Club Championships on Thursday as the rain that has dogged the tournament finally relented.
The big-serving Croatian, the fifth seed, lost 6-4 6-4 in the opening match on centre court. Second seed Kevin Anderson also suffered a surprise second-round defeat as he was beaten 6-1 4-6 6-4 by Frenchman Gilles Simon.
Greek top seed Stefanos Tsitsipas moved through to the second round as he finished off home hope Kyle Edmund 6-3 7-5 having come off the previous night at 3-3 in the second set.
