The penultimate day of Wimbledon did not start well for Spanish tennis. Although it was up to Carlos Alcaraz to make Friday another historic day. The Murcian is playing against Russian Daniil Medvedev to reach his fourth Grand Slam final, second in a row at the All England Club, where he is defending his title.
In the open debate about how the upper middle class of Spanish tennis is suffering, with many veterans tired of their respective careers, with no replacements in sight such as David Ferrer, Pablo Carreño and Roberto Bautista himself, all eyes is dedicated to the quarry.
On the near horizon is the Madrid native Martin Landaluce, even entering the professional circuit is difficult. The man from Avila can prove it Dani Rinconalso a recent outstanding junior worldwide.
Another Madrid native, Rafa Jodar, is meant for grass. Champion of the Roehampton J300 tournament, one of the most prestigious at the junior level and before the U-18 Wimbledon tournament, he lost again in his tenth match.
After nine wins, six from Roehampton, and the three that took him to the quarterfinals on his Wimbledon debut, he hit the wall the Japanese had built at the back of the court. Naoya Honda, 18 years old, a few months older than the CT Chamartín tennis player, who is 17 years old and will be an adult on September 17. He measures 1.90 meters, a height suitable for 21st century tennis.
Eighth-finalist at Roland Garros, lost 6-4 and 6-4 in 1h.15′. He got back to break down at 3-3 in the second set, but the Japanese downplayed the reaction by going all back on court 5 of the facility.
