Jaume Munar is already sharpening his weapons at this Wimbledon 2026. Despite arriving with little preparation after a very irregular clay court season due to his elbow injury, the Mallorcan came to London without many expectations, especially when he had to face the reigning ATP Queen's champion, Fran Cerúndolo, in his debut. However, he swept the Argentine aside and today he does the same with one of the last British hopes at the London Grand Slam, Jacob Fearnley. Munar once again displayed a very solid tennis game and claimed victory with a 6-4, 7-6(3), 6-4 scoreline, after two hours and 51 minutes, and now awaits the winner between Alex Molcan and Jiri Lehecka.

Just as he did in his match against Cerúndolo, Munar did it again today against Fearnley: his serve is proving to be his best weapon. Additionally, he is demonstrating excellent judgment on approaching the net or staying back, while his game has always been able to adapt to this delicate and technical surface. Two great matches have secured his spot in the third round, matching his result from the previous edition, and he is on the verge of reaching his second Grand Slam fourth round after the one achieved at the US Open last year.

"This surface allows you to be more aggressive and practical, not relying so much on physicality. Considering my current physical condition, with almost no training under my belt, that has helped me a lot," stated Jaume Munar after his victory over Cerúndolo, in statements reported by El País, where he also mentioned that his grass court preparation has been "non-existent," mainly due to issues with his wisdom tooth which, after extraction, led to an infection. But now, without dental or elbow problems, here he is again, in the third round of Wimbledon 2026 and eager to take another step forward.
