Day 1 at the 2013 Wimbledon Championships featured a little bit of everything as relative unknown Belgian Steve Darcis stole the show from Roger Federer and Andy Murray.

The world No. 135 took out two-time Wimbledon champion Rafael Nadal in straight sets on Monday. The stunning result brought back memories of last year's tournament when Nadal bowed out in the second round in London, via the Wimbledon Twitter feed:



Overshadowed by Darcis' upset was Roger Federer, who played a nearly flawless match against Victor Hanescu, winning in straight sets to begin his title defense in dominant fashion.

Here we'll get you up to speed on what unfolded on Day 1 at the All England Club.
