British doubles player Neal Skupski, a passionate Liverpool fan, had also brought a black armband for his match on Thursday but opted not to wear it. He suggested he may wear one later in the tournament, saying: "Maybe in the next couple of days".

Wimbledon paid tribute to Diogo Jota after the Liverpool star's death as Portugal's Francisco Cabral wore a black ribbon during his doubles match on Friday.
Cabral was allowed to put the ribbon on his shirt sleeve for the second-round tie after the All England Club relaxed its strict all-white dress code to allow tributes to the Portugal forward.
Jota, 28, and his brother Andre Silva died in a car crash in northern Spain while travelling to catch a ferry to England ahead of the start of pre-season training. The accident came just days after Jota's wedding to Rute Cardoso, with whom he had three children.
