«Yesterday (this Wednesday) I began to not feel very well and, after taking the relevant test, I have tested positive for Covid-19. They were being good days after the injury and, fortunately, the symptoms are not very serious, but I think it is the best decision, “said the tennis player.

Thus, the number 19 in the world will not be able to play the second round match at Wimbledon this Thursday against Colombian Daniel Galán, ranked 109th in the ATP ranking. The man from Castellón beat Hungarian Atilla Balasz in the first round 6-1, 6-0, 6-3.

In addition, Bautista thanked “everyone” for the “support” received “always” by his followers. “I hope to be back on track soon,” wished the Spanish tennis player, the third athlete to drop out of the men’s team after those of the Croatian Marin Cilic and the Italian Matteo Berrettini, tournament finalist in 2021.
