LONDON: Carlos Alcaraz reached his first quarterfinal on grass as the world No. 2 crushed Jiri Lehecka in the Wimbledon warmup event at Queen’s Club on Thursday.
For Nick Kyrgios, Matteo Berrettini and Milos Raonic, Wimbledon has been the closest they have got to winning a Grand Slam singles title. Kyrgios made the final last summer, losing to Novak Djokovic in four sets. Berrettini was beaten by the same opponent, and over the same number of sets, the previous year.
Defending champion Matteo Berrettini has withdrawn from Queen's with an abdominal injury. Berrettini would have been going for a hat-trick of titles at the West London event after also triumphing in 2021, but has suffered an injury-pockmarked 2023, and appears to have a problem in a similar area to the complaint that kept him out of the recent clay-court season. Ad Berrettini returned to action at the Stuttgart Open earlier this month, but lost heavily in his first match against fellow Italian Lorenzo Sonego, and looked to be in tears as he left the court.
Two-time defending champion Matteo Berrettini has pulled out of the Queen's Club Championships, the world number 21 said.
Andy Murray will face Australia’s world No. 18 and seventh seed Alex de Minaur in the first round of the Queen's Club Championships. The Brit has lost all three of his matches against De Minaur – the last of which was a 6-1 6-3 humbling at the Monte Carlo Masters earlier this year — but should the Brit prevail, he could face Diego Schwartzman in round two and Taylor Fritz at the quarter-final stage.
Andy Murray insists he is still among the top ten grass court players in the world after kicking off his LTA's Lexus Surbiton Trophy campaign with a comfortable straight sets win over Hyeon Chung. The former world No.1 swatted aside his South Korean opponent 6-3 6-2 in West London to get a bumper summer of domestic tennis underway. Ad Murray, the current world No.43 after a long-term battle with injuries, opted to skip the French Open to give himself more time on grass ahead of Wimbledon.
Andy Murray says he would “fancy” his chances against a lot of the world’s top 10 on grass. The former world No. 1 opted out of the French Open and is instead preparing for Wimbledon by playing at the grass-court Surbiton Trophy Challenger event.
The 2023 French Open is upon us and — spoiler alert — the event is going to have a markedly different vibe this year. Some familiar faces will be missing with the gigantic absence of Rafael Nadal for the first time since 2004, as well as former champions Simona Halep and Garbine Muguruza, along with the recent retirements of Serena Williams and Roger Federer. Notable names like Naomi Osaka, Andy Murray, Venus Williams, Nick Kyrgios, Emma Raducanu and Matteo Berrettini are also missing from the slate, so Roland Garros will be lacking some of its traditional star power.
