Alex de Minaur suffers setback at Wimbledon
Wimbledon: Alex de Minaur’s disappointment at Queen’s Club has cost him a crucial top-eight seeding for Wimbledon. His unexpected first-round defeat to Lorenzo Musetti came just days after winning his second grass-court title in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. As a result, he slipped two spots to world No. 9 in the rankings.
Being seeded in the top eight would have guaranteed de Minaur an easier path at Wimbledon, avoiding higher-ranked opponents until at least the quarter-finals. Now, he faces the prospect of encountering top seeds like Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic, or Carlos Alcaraz as early as the round of 16.
Wimbledon: Despite this setback, de Minaur is in excellent form this season, leading Australia’s strong contingent at Wimbledon. His compatriots, including Alex Bolt, James Duckworth, and Li Tu, have also shown promising performances in the qualifiers, setting the stage for an exciting tournament ahead.
