The third stage match of Wimbledon 2023 between Daniil Medvedev and Jiri Lehecka will take place on July 10.
Daniil Medvedev has showcased his impressive skills in the last two rounds of Wimbledon, defeating tough opponents Adrian Mannarino and Marton Fucsovics with only one set dropped. While Medvedev had faced unexpected defeats recently, hindering his confidence, he has performed exceptionally well in the Grand Slam this season. He is now on the verge of achieving his first-ever quarterfinal result at Wimbledon. In his previous appearance in 2021, rain interrupted his momentum and he lost when play resumed the following day. Reflecting on the lessons learned from that defeat, Medvedev shared how he approached the current match differently, stating that he didn’t even wash his hair, believing in maintaining the same mindset until the match was completed.
Jiri Lehecka has bounced back from a slight dip in form to have his best season yet. Previously winless at Wimbledon and on grass, he has now defeated Sebastian Ofner, Francisco Cerundolo, and Tommy Paul to reach the round of 16. After last year’s early exits in all four Grand Slam tournaments, the talented Czech has experienced an impressive resurgence. He aims to secure his second Grand Slam quarterfinal appearance of the season, following victories over Cameron Norrie and Felix Auger-Aliassime in Melbourne. Lehecka’s success at the Australian Open made him the first Czech quarterfinalist since Tomas Berdych, who achieved notable wins over Dominic Thiem and Novak Djokovic before falling to Roger Federer in the 2017 Wimbledon semifinals.
