Carlos Alcaraz is advancing steadily at Wimbledon 2023, having secured his place in the round of 16 of the emblematic Grand Slam at the All England Club in London. His next challenge will be against the talented Italian Matteo Berrettini, who recently knocked out Alexander Zverev in the third round of the British tournament.
The Murcian had a tense match in the third round against the Chilean Nicolás Jarry, where he lost his first set of the tournament. Despite having to spend more time on the track than expected, Alcaraz emerged victorious with a score of 6-3, 6-7, 6-3 and 7-5, maintaining his status as number 1 in the ranking of the ATP.
Now, the Murcian will have to face number 37 in the ATP ranking. The history between Alcaraz and Berrettini is filled with fierce competition, having met on three previous occasions on the ATP circuit. Alcaraz has emerged victorious in two of these meetings, first in Vienna in 2021 and then in Rio de Janeiro in 2022. Berrettini, for his part, earned his only win against Alcaraz at the Australian Open in 2022.
The next meeting between Alcaraz and Berrettini will take place on center court at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, July 10. Viewers in Spain can tune in to Movistar to watch the match live. For those who prefer real-time coverage, you can follow the action minute by minute on the La Vanguardia website.
