Relief for Alcaraz at Wimbledon: he finally has a round of 16 opponent

Date:

Carlos Alcaraz suffered to overcome Frances Tiafoe, whom he defeated by rebounding in the fourth and fifth sets. He finished his work on Friday, but went to the house he had rented in the neighborhood of Wimbledon since his arrival in London without meeting his rival.

It was not in their hands, because there was an uncontrollable factor, the rain, which once again ruined the program of this Saturday’s match. There are only two covered courts, the central one and 1, the others are exposed to bad weather.

Among the victims, the French Ugo Humbert and the American Brandon Nakashima, who did not finish their third round match. And they had to wait some time to continue testing this Saturday.
