Accordingly, he was also confident in his second round. Botic van de Zandschulp, a Dutch qualifier, was defeated 6-3, 6-4, 7-6.
Little by little, the favorite subsided a little. In round 1 he actually gave up a set against Guido Pella (6-4, 3-6, 6-4, 6-0). As you know it from the almost two meter tall Italian, he also serves strongly at Wimbledon.
He booked 20 aces in each of his two games. Four finals he has already achieved this year and would probably not mind making it into the top two in a Grand Slam.
Once quarter-finals and once semi-finals, the 25-year-old still has room for improvement. This is especially true for Wimbledon, where he picked up a nasty smack from Roger Federer in the round of 16 in 2019.
In 2018 he failed in round 1. In any case, the betting providers are sure that this year it will definitely go to the round of 16. So some betting odds remains even below 1.10.
