Strong, Gilles Simon completed the affair in three sets against Matteo Berrettini (6-3, 7-6 [4] 6-2) . He pbades the second round at Wimbledon after eliminations at this stage in 2016 and 2017.

Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Grigor Dimitrov and Dominic Thiem: The list of those who have eliminated Gilles Simon (# 53) at Wimbledon over the past four years is slightly scary. In the last two editions, he was stopped in the second round by the Bulgarian and then the Austrian. But this time it was an opponent more at his fingertips who was facing him with Matteo Berrettini, 81st player in the world. And the French did not miss his chance by signing a very solid match to win in three sets (6-3, 7-6 [4] 6-2) and spin in the third round. Good news, he could see a little further since he will face Stéphane Robert or Matthew Ebden next.
