Good morning friends of OA Sport and welcome to the Live Broadcast of the 2024 Wimbledon 1st round match Flavio Cobolli and Rinky Hijikata.
The match looks set to be long and hard-fought the one between the Roman and the Australian, one of the most in-form tennis players of the moment, who starts as the favorite also considering the surface. Hijikata is an Australian who plays very well on fast surfaces, last week he defeated Matteo Arnaldi in the round of 16 at Queen’s in two tie-breaks. Virtually no. 70 in the world, the Aussie boasts a round of 16 at the US Open in 2023, but had never managed to qualify for the Championships.
Cobolli achieved his first career quarter-final on grass at Eastbourne last week (his 3rd career ATP title), after two extremely bad draws in the previous two tournaments played in Germany. This time, he didn’t get a seed, and that’s already positive. The Italian is virtually the 47th player in the worldand with a victory he would climb a few positions. A year ago, Cobolli was involved in the Italian clay-court Challengers. This year, he plays Wimbledon directly in the draw and it is not certain that he will be eliminated immediately. There are no precedents between the two players.
All that remains is to wish you a good continuation with the Live Broadcast of the 2024 Wimbledon 1st round match Flavio Cobolli and Rinky Hijikata. It starts as 3rd match from 12:00 after Popyrin-Monteiro and Riera-Bouzkova.
