The second stage match of Wimbledon 2023 between Carlos Alcaraz and Alexandre Muller will take place on July 7.
Carlos Alcaraz began his French Open campaign with a dominant victory over Flavio Cobolli, triumphing 6-0, 6-2, 7-5. He continued his impressive form at Wimbledon, defeating Jeremy Chardy with the same scoreline. Alcaraz showcased his talent throughout the French Open, defeating formidable opponents until facing Novak Djokovic in the semifinals. Currently ranked as the world number #1, Alcaraz is enjoying a six-match winning streak on grass, his best ever performance on this surface. Previously, he had only won four matches on grass in his career. He claimed a recent title in London. In his young career, Alcaraz holds a 7-2 record in the second round of Grand Slam tournaments, with his only recent defeat coming at Wimbledon in 2021 against Daniil Medvedev.
In his Wimbledon debut, Alexandre Muller made a remarkable start by defeating Arthur Rinderknech in a four-set victory. It’s worth noting that Muller had been primarily participating in clay Challenger events until recently, while his opponent had been focusing on playing on grass and even won a set against Carlos Alcaraz in London. This win on grass, in his first main-draw match, is another significant achievement for the 26-year-old in his successful 2023 season. Earlier this year, he reached his first quarterfinal on the main tour in Doha and came close to winning his first ATP title in Marrakech, falling just one set short. Muller’s consistent performances across different levels also propelled him into the top 100 rankings for the first time.
