Carlos Alcaraz will know this Friday (11 Spanish peninsular time) eThe road to defending his title at Wimbledon. The Murcian will be one of the main protagonists of a draw with many incentives… and many traps.
The number of grass specialist players with a low ranking This means that there can be high-voltage duels from the first round.
Rivals such as Matteo Berrettini, Jan-Lennard Struff or Denis Shapovalov become serious threats for the always complicated debut at the All England Club which, in the case of Alcaraz, will be on Monday, July 1 at 2:30 p.m. (Spanish peninsular time).
Already in the third round, the time would come to cross paths with the seeds from 17 to 32, where there are players as dangerous as Jack Draper, champion in Stuttgart and recent executioner of Alcaraz in Queen’sFrances Tiafoe, Sebastina Korda, Alejandro Tabilo or the always unpredictable Alexander Bublik.

In the round of 16 the main threats would be Tommy Paul, champion at Queen’s, Taylor Fritz, Ben SheltonGrigor Dimitrov and Alex de Minaur, while possible rivals in the quarterfinals include Hubert Hurkacz, Andrey Rublev and Daniil Medvedev.
All this depends on the presence or absence of Novak Djokovic.. The Serbian has been training at a good pace for several days in London after undergoing surgery on his meniscus after being forced to retire at Roland Garros.
Although his withdrawal was considered certain, it now seems more than likely that he will try to take part in one of his favorite tournaments.
If he does play, Alcaraz would be the third seed, and would be forced into a hypothetical semi-final against him or Jannik Sinner.while if Djokovic does not play, the Spaniard would be second seed, so he would avoid Sinner until the final and his theoretical semi-final clash would be with Alexander Zverev or Daniil Medvedev, whom he defeated in the semi-finals last year.
Alejandro Davidovich, Pedro Martinez, Jaume Munar, Roberto Carballes, Roberto Bautista and Pablo Carreno complete the list of Spanish players in the tournament.
