Luca Nardi ITA, 2003.08.06
The dream of Luke Nardi at Wimbledon he crashes on his debut. The Pesaro native, never really in the game, surrenders to Tomas Martin Etcheverryseeded number 30, with a clear 6-1, 6-4, 6-2 in just one hour and forty-five minutes.
An unexpected defeat, considering that the Argentine, more comfortable on clay, seemed on paper an easy opponent. Instead, on court 4, a one-sided match unfolded.
Etcheverry imposed his game from the beginning, breaking Nardi’s serve twice in the first set, which was won in just 26 minutes by 6 to 1. The second set saw a timid attempt at reaction by the Italian, but a break in the fifth game paved the way for the Argentine.
In the third set, despite an interruption due to Nardi’s nosebleed, Etcheverry maintained control, closing the match without suffering 6-2 with breaks in the first and seventh games.
For Nardi, at her first appearance in the main draw of Wimbledon and only second in a Slam, a lesson from which to draw valuable lessons. Etcheverry, on the other hand, is preparing to face the winner between Popyrin and Monteiro, with the prospect of a possible third round against Novak Djokovic.
A day to forget, but one that does not erase the potential of Nardi who, at just 20 years old, has all the time in the world to grow and return stronger to these prestigious stages.
