It will be a Wimbledon tournament full of pitfalls, and not only from the possible quarter-finals, for Jannik Sinner. The world number 1, who will be on his side of the draw Carlo Alcaraz after the decision of n.2, Novak Djokovic, to participate despite his recent knee surgery, he will start against the German Yannick Hanfmann. But in the second round there could be a fascinating derby, as complex as it is for both, against Matteo Berrettini, who made a good return in Stuttgart and who was a finalist in the London Slam in 2021.

The draw of the other Italians
The winner could find Tallon Griekspoor on his side, then – but we are always in the realm of eventualities – Ben Shelton and Daniil Medvedev. Berrettini for his part will access the derby in the event that he overcomes the Hungarian Marton Fucsovics in the debut match.
This is the picture relating to the other blues: Mattia Bellucche will face Ben Shelton, Matteo Arnaldi will deal with Frances Tiafoe, Lorenzo Sonego will challenge Mariano Navone, Fabio Fognini will play against Dominik Koepfer, Luciano Darderi will debut against Jan Choinski, Lorenzo Musetti will challenge Constant Lestienne and Flavio Cobolli will play against Rinky Hijikata.
