After generally dominating the proceedings, Arthur Fils benefited from Hubert Hurkacz's withdrawal to advance to the second round of this 2024 edition of Wimbledon (7-6, 6-4, 2-6, 6-6). The Pole injured his right knee in the tie-break of the 4th set and retired on match point for the Frenchman, who was leading 9-8.
Fils thus qualifies for the 3rd round of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time in his career. He will face Roman Safiullin or Tomas Machac on Saturday.
