(sda) Like Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal crosses the board at Wimbledon without any problem. In the third round, the Spaniard wins against the Australian Alex de Minaur (ATP 80) 6: 1, 6: 2, 6: 4. Thus, Nadal, who, with his 16 knockout knockout, has the world No. 1 on Wimbledon, has played only 26 games in the first three games, one less than Federer.
The # 2 Spaniard is in his eighth place Wimbledon second round. Then he has never come since the last defeat against Novak Djokovic in 2011. This time, however, he looks good for the 32-year-old Mallorquin. He is in the first round against the Czechs Jiri Vesely (ATP 93), left-handed like him, clearly favorite.
Zverev's efforts with the Grand Slam
Alexander Zverev (ATP 3) should follow in the footsteps of Boris Becker or at least Michael Stich occur. And the Hamburger, 21, has all the equipment. He triumphed three times in the Masters 1000 tournaments, the biggest tournaments of the ATP Tour, defeating Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Dominic Thiem in the final. In the Grand Slam, however, small games.
A little over a month ago, Zverev reached for the first time a quarter-final in Paris – and at Wimbledon he was again disappointed. After having already used five sets in the second round, the German failed Saturday in five sets (6: 7 (2: 7), 6: 4, 7: 5, 3: 6, 0: 6) in the match. Latvian qualification. Ernests Gulbis, number 138 in the world.
Now, this Gulbis is not just anyone, but an old top ten equally talented and idiosyncratic who is capable of everything in the best and the worst sense. Once again everything was at Wimbledon. After clearly leading the third set, he outclassed favorite Zverev in sets 4 and 5 outright. At the final score of 0: 6, the German wins only six points
Favorites at the women's table
Simona Halep, world number 1, loses in the third round against the Taiwanese Hsieh Su -Wei (WTA 48) 6: 3, 4: 6, 5: 7. In the third set, the French winner of the Romanian Open had managed 5: 2 and 5: 4 can not use a match ball . However, Wimbledon has never been a real success for the small-skinned baseline specialist
only one, the number 7 seed, is number 7 Karolina Pliskova of the Czech Republic during the last sixteen years.
