University student Ollie Tarvet was unable to create one of the biggest shocks in Wimbledon history as the Briton's dream run came to an end against two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz.

The 21-year-old qualifier put up an entertaining fight - showing signs of his vast potential - but ultimately lost 6-1 6-4 6-4 on Centre Court.

Ranked 733rd in the world, Tarvet created 11 break points against the five-time Grand Slam champion.

But the Englishman, who studies in the United States, could only take two of those opportunities and never looked like seriously causing an upset.

"I want to give credit to Oliver – I love his game," said second seed Alcaraz, who secured a 20th match win in a row.

"The level he played in his first match on Centre Court, which I know is difficult, was great.

"I knew I had to be really focused from the beginning. I'm happy with my performance."

Tarvet's run of four victories - three in qualifying and another in the first round proper - means he should be taking home prize money of £99,000.

However, he is only allowed to claim $10,000 (£7,290) in profit every year under American college rules, as well as any expenses incurred during the events.

Despite showing he can test the very best in the professional ranks, Tarvet still plans to return to the University of San Diego next year to conclude his four-year communications and marketing degree.
