In the world of tennis, there will always be fans who like the glamour of Roland Garros, the excitement of Australia, or the splendor of the US Open. However, the truth is that, as a general rule, everyone who attends the London tournament of Wimbledon falls in love with it. The smell of the grass, the usual strawberries, the tradition that emanates from each of its beautiful facilities; and the history of its courts.
This edition of one of the most important tournaments in the world tennis calendar had several novelties, first of all, the prohibition of the participation of players of Russian nationality, due to the war conflicts that still exist between Russia and Ukraine, which prevented the presence of Medvedev. There was also the novelty that the participants were not assigned points, and that for the first-time matches were scheduled on the first Sunday in the middle of the tournament, which was traditionally used as a rest day.

The pandemic continues to ravage the London turf, forcing the withdrawal of prominent players such as Berrettini, Cilic, and Bautista. Another attraction was the unexpected presence of Serena Williams; who after a year’s absence and at the age of 40, was unable to get past the first round.
Now, we are in a decisive stage of the tournament, the round of 16, where the best players of the first round will fight in a single match to advance to the quarterfinals and be much closer to the coveted final.
