Well, you see, after so many years in the gap, here we will return to the two great legends in the front line of the race. Novak Djokovic y Rafael Nadal, each one on one side of the painting, making us dream of a possible final between the two. Casper Ruud and Setefanos Tsitsipas –two tennis players who still raise a lot of doubts on grass– will be the third and fourth favourites, although we will see how far they go. Matteo Berrettini closes the group of the eight main seeds and Pablo Carrelo the one of the first 16. What does this mean? That any name from 17 to 32 could face in the third round against those who go from 1 to 16. But the worst comes now
What lies beyond the 32 reclassified? Authentic bombs to avoid in those first two rounds that always bring a morrocotudo danger. names like Alexander Davidovich (Junior Wimbledon champion), Brandon Nakashima, Máxime Cressy, Adrian Mandarino, Sam Querrey or Jack Draper can be hidden double-edged swords on the board. And well, we can’t forget about Nick Kyrgios, the monster that no one wants to see. The Australian can face any of the tennis players in the tournament in his debut. ANYONE IS ANYONE. Can you imagine a duel against Rafa? Or before Novak? For the sake of our health, we hope not.
