It is at this time of year when the best version of Matteo Berrettini always shows up. Wimbledon arrives, and the Italian soars. And there is no better place to do it than on the Centre Court of the great London tournament. The Roman continues with the good feelings displayed at Roland Garros, which are further enhanced on such a technical surface that suits the Italian's weapons perfectly. To top it off, he has defeated two great rivals in his first two matches. In his debut, it was Stan Wawrinka, and today he prevailed over Arthur Fils by 6-4, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3.

Matteo Berrettini reaches the Wimbledon third round three years later

While the Frenchman arrived with little match practice due to his injury in Rome, which kept him out of Roland Garros, the Italian has been clearly superior for most of the match, proving that if he stays physically fit, he can defeat anyone on the grass of London. In fact, due to injuries, the Italian had not reached the Wimbledon third round since 2023. 

Matteo Berrettini after beating Arthur Fils in R2 at Wimbledon:

"We know that you've had a few injuries that you've dealt with over the last few years. How much confidence will these 2 matches have given you about how deep you can go in this event?"

"I played many matches in Paris. It's been a while since I played so many matches in Grand Slams. Of course, there were tough moments, but so far, I think my career has been great. I can't complain. Obviously, there were difficult times. Here at Wimbledon four years ago was one of the toughest decisions of my life. But I'm here, I'm back. I smile when I play. It's a great honor and privilege to play here in front of you," said the Roman, visibly emotional, after defeating the Frenchman.

Matteo Berrettini's next challenge in Wimbledon 2026 will also be tough. In the third round, he awaits the winner of the match between Jakub Mensik and Grigor Dimitrov, so whoever advances, a clash of big hitters is expected.
