A crowd of 60,000 saw Japan receive three setbacks in the Se- cond Round at Wimbledon yester- day, R. Miki, H. Niskimura and J. Fujikura all being defeated. Yamagishi, who defeated Lesueur of France, was the only Japanese winner.
The only two British Empire players to take part in yester day's games, Nigel Sharpe, and Don Turnbull, were successful. recording meritorious wins over Fujikura, the Japanese cham- pion. and Miki, respectively.
SHARPE PROVIDES SURPRISE
Nigel Sharpe, of Great Britain,. created an upset by defeating Fu- ¡jikura, the now Japanese cham- pion, by 6-4, 3-6, 1-6, 7-5 and 6-4.
Sharpe has previously been glantkiller at Wimbledon, having recorded wins over Henri Cochet, Baron De Morpurgo and several others.
He was on the very top of his form, although his base- line shots occasionally found the net.
