Wimbledon, Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti can enter the round of 16 at the Championships for the first time in his career: for him the surprise Comesana.
Lorenzo Musetti will attempt to enter the Wimbledon round of 16 for the first time, overcoming the hurdle of the third round. The early eliminations of Andrey Rublev and Stefanos Tsitsipas in his quadrant will “grease” the talent from Carrara, who would seem – on paper – to have a clear path to the quarters.
After winning in 5 sets over compatriot Darderi in the second round, for Musetti there is the big surprise of this edition of Wimbledon, the Argentinean Francisco Comesana, who until a few days ago had never won a match at Atp level. A real “fairy tale” that of the current number 122 in the world rankings, able to take the scalp of a very nervous Rublev in his debut and prevail over the Australian Walton – more accustomed than him to playing on grass – after 5 hard-fought sets. Comesana is well within Musetti’s reach, but the Carrarino should not make the mistake of underestimating him too much. If the Azure remains on the piece he will bring the match home without major problems, although the Argentine, who is “on fire” and has nothing to lose, could snatch at least a partial from him.
Djokovic, watch out for Popyrin
Roman Safiullin dreams of going as far as possible like last year, when he stopped in the quarterfinals in his match with Jannik Sinner. The Russian appeared very solid in his matches with Cerundolo and Machac and does not start undefeated against Frenchman Arthur Fils, to whom, however, he lost twice in his career (Lille ’22 and Marseille ’23).
U.S. Taylor Fritz, number 12 in the world, did not take too many risks with O’Connell and Rinderknech, and in the third round he will find an opponent, Chilean Tabilo, who is back from a grueling marathon with Italian Cobolli, who held him for five sets: we expect a fairly clear success from the American, who on grass can take advantage of his very powerful serve. French talent Mpetshi Perricard, who has been blossoming just in the last few months, can also do it. A hard-fought match with Finland’s Ruusuvuori looms, but the transalpine tennis player, who entered the main draw as a lucky loser, deserves confidence after wins over more experienced players such as Korda and Nishioka. Alexander Zverev has not lost a single set so far and is a clear favorite against host Norrie, while Australian Alexei Popyrin could create some headaches for a Novak Djokovic still conspicuously far from his best condition. Easy task, finally, for Dane Holger Rune, engaged with Halys.
