Wimbledon is around the corner and the tennis bandwagon is getting closer and closer to the courts of the All England Club. After the Queen’s event we move to Eastbourne, with the tournament starting tomorrow and concluding on Saturday 29 June. However, the tournament will not feature players from the top 10.
No Jannik Sinner or Carlos Alcaraz, who will rest ahead of the London Slam. The best player on the board is in fact Taylor Fritz, number 12 in the world rankings who last year was defeated on his debut but who took home the tournament twice. With a parterre that does not appear too full of experienced surface players, with Tommy Paul, Sebastian Baez and Francisco Cerundolo, Alexander could become the protagonist Bublik, who wants to take on the role of the crazy variable in view of Wimbledon.
Also present on the scoreboard for the Italians Lorenzo Sonego and Flavio Cobolli. This is the second tournament on grass for the Turin player after Halle, in which he achieved a success over Miomir Kecmanovic and an honorable defeat against Alexander Zverev. It went worse for Flavio in Halle, immediately drawn with a servebot like Hubert Hurkacz with whom he made a good impression.
Also theoretically present in the list of alternates is Matteo Berrettini, who comes from the Stuttgart final and the Halle round of 16. The Roman could choose to unsubscribe to recharge his batteries in view of the Slam, as well as Luca Nardi, who had his only seasonal approach in the Queen’s qualifiers.
