The two heroes of the tennis season will take to the grass at Wimbledon on this fourth day devoted to the end of the second round, Thursday June 30. Rafael Nadal and Iga Swiatek, both victorious at Roland-Garros, will thus present themselves to validate their ticket for the rest of the tournament. They will respectively face the Lithuanian Richard Berankis (106th) and the Dutch Lesli Kerkhove (138th). Apart from the two stars of the day, Nick Kyrgios, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Paula Badosa, Paulina Pliskova or even Barbara Krejcikova will also be on the courts.
On the French side, like the day before, the program will be plentiful, perhaps also fruitful. Among the ladies, theconfirmation will be awaited for Harmony Tan, surprise winner of Serena Williams in the first round, and who will face the Spaniard Sara Sorribes Tormo (45e). Alizé Cornet is the favorite against the American Claire Liu (75th). In the men’s draw, Richard Gasquet will cross swords with another American, Mackenzie McDonald (55th), just like Benjamin Bonzi against Jenson Brooksby (34th). The miraculous Hugo Grenier is opposed to the Chilean Cristian Garin (43rd) while Hugo Gaston will face the Italian Lorenzo Sonego. Follow the day live.
