The well-known phrase that each match must be played until the last point is a true reflection of what Gustavo Fernández experienced at Wimbledon. The world No. 3 in the ITF ranking in singles had the semi-final practically won, but Alfie Hewett (2nd) ended up taking a surprising victory.
The Briton, who throughout the match felt in his favor the locality thanks to the support of the public, beat Cordoba 2-6, 7-6 (3) and 6-4 in an exciting definition for a spot in the grass-court Grand Slam final.
In the second set, Gusti it came to be 5-1 in his favor and only one game of the end. Gradually Hewett recovered and managed to force the match to a final set. The champion in the Cathedral in 2019 (since then they have not won a Major) He swept the start and then his level was declining, as his rival’s increased.
In the Wimbledon final, Hewett will meet the favourite, Shingo Kunieda, the No. 1 in the ITF adapted tennis ranking and who comes from being champion at the Australian Open (he beat the British) and Roland Garros (he beat Fernández).
