Flavio Cobolli's feat as he reaches the quarterfinals at Wimbledon. The Roman, number 24 in the ATP ranking, beat the thirty-six year old Croatian Marin Čilić (number 83) with a score of 6-4 6-4 6-7(4) 7-6(3). For him, it is the first time among the best eight of a Grand Slam tournament.
The second day dedicated to the round of 16 began in the best possible way, with three Italians on the field ( the first time ever on the London grass ). Nothing to do instead for Lorenzo Sonego, beaten by the American Ben Sheldon. The number 10 of the seeding won over the Italian 3-6 6-1 7-6(1) 7-5 . On the main field, not before 19.20, the number 1 in the world Jannik Sinner will face the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
Cobolli will face Novak Djokovic in the quarterfinals tomorrow : the Serbian beat Alex de Minaur here too in four sets with a score of 1-6 6-4 6-4 6-4.
