Steve Darcis hails 'amazing' Tomas Berdych win

Belgium's Steve Darcis has described his surprise victory over Tomas Berdych in the opening round of the Olympics as an "amazing feeling".

The world number 75 saw off the Czech sixth seed 6-4 6-4 in his first appearance on Centre Court.

"It has always been a dream to play [on Centre Court]. When you're young you watch Pete Sampras playing there and you think maybe one day, and today it was my day," the 28-year-old told reporters.

"It was a great atmosphere. To play those matches is why you play tennis and today it was an amazing feeling."

Darcis will now meet Colombia's Santiago Giraldo in the second round.
