Roberto Bautista won again at Wimbledon two years later, by defeating the Germans Maximilan Marterer (6-3, 6-1 and 6-4)and will return to the top 100 after the tournament.
The Spaniard, who left the world’s top 100 by losing points from the Halle semifinals in 2023, added his first Wimbledon victory since he defeated Hungarian Attila Balazs in 2022. The last time he won the two consecutive matches on these courts were in 2021, two years after his best performance at the All England Club, when he reached the semifinals, missed his bachelor party along the way, and fell to Novak Djokovic.
At 36 years old, Bautista continues to fight and this victory is a new boost in a grass tour where he added a victory in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, another in Halle and two in Mallorca, where he reached the quarterfinals .
The player from Castellón will face the winner of the match between Argentine Mariano Navone and Italian Lorenzo Sonego in the second round.
