The second stage match of Wimbledon 2023 between Tomas Martin Etcheverry and Stan Wawrinka will take place on July 6.
Tomas Martin Etcheverry is having a career-best season in 2023, making a strong impact on all surfaces. At Wimbledon, he achieved a notable breakthrough on grass, staging a remarkable comeback from being two sets down in the first round against Bernabe Zapata Miralles. Prior to this year, the Argentine had suffered four consecutive losses in Grand Slam main draws. However, in 2023, he has reached the second round on three occasions at this level. In Melbourne, he was defeated by Jannik Sinner in the second round, and in Paris, he impressed with a quarterfinal run without dropping a set.
Stan Wawrinka returned to grass with a straight-sets victory over Emil Ruusuvuori at Wimbledon. Ruusuvuori had been in good form, making Wawrinka’s win even more impressive. Although Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam he hasn’t won, Wawrinka has performed well this year. He played three five-set matches in the 2023 Slams, but unfortunately lost two of them. Since reaching the quarterfinals in 2015, he has struggled to win consecutive matches at Wimbledon, currently facing a three-match losing streak in the second round. Surprising defeats came against Del Potro in 2016, Fabbiano in 2018, and Opelka in 2019.

Stan Wawrinka has encountered difficulties in Grand Slam tournaments this year, particularly when it comes to playing five-set matches. His stamina appears to be a limiting factor in such situations. On the other hand, Tomas Martin Etcheverry is known for his ability to prolong matches and tire out his opponents. However, it seems unlikely that he will be able to employ this strategy to outlast Wawrinka on grass.
The second stage match of Wimbledon 2023 between Tomas Martin Etcheverry and Stan Wawrinka will take place on July 6.
