The second qualifying round takes place this Wednesday, June 28 with ten French people still in contention.
The balance sheet of the French was catastrophic Tuesday, June 27. Among the 11 registered players, only four remain in the qualifying table in the 2nd round. There remain Carole Monnet, Océane Dodin, Clara Burel and Chloé Paquet who will meet the Russian phenomenon, Mirra Andreeva, today. Amandine Hesse, Selena Janicijevic, Leolia Jeanjean, Jessika Ponchet, Elsa Jacquemot, Alice Robbe and Kristina Mladenovic all crashed. “Kiki” has chained a twelfth consecutive defeat and is going through “the most difficult period” of his career. On the women’s side, Erika Andreeva, Sofia Kenin and Taylor Townsend qualified while 2014 Wimbledon runner-up Eugenie Bouchard was knocked out in the first round.
The men are also much less numerous than at the start. The Blues will have to fight to climb to the third round. They have difficult opponents to play like Pierre Hugues-Herbert who will be opposed to one of the revelations of Roland-Garros 2023, Thiago Seyboth Wild. Enzo Couacaud will not be spared against former Korean prospect Hyeon Chung. Harold Mayot will have to get rid of Jack Duckworth and Lucas Pouille of Giulio Zeppieri. Laurent Lokoli and Hugo Gaston will face Norbert Gombos and Billy Harris.

At Wimbledon, the official program for each day, available on the official website, can sometimes be turned upside down. Indeed, if the schedule for the start of the day is quite clear, it is very difficult to count on the exact time of the end of the matches. The main constraint for the organizers remains the weather where the rain can thwart the holding of the matches. Indeed, two courts (the “Center Court” and court n°1) have a retractable roof that can accommodate matches in the event of “capricious” weather.
At the end of a meeting, you will find the results of the matches of the women’s table and the men’s table.
Wimbledon 2023 will take place from Monday July 3 to Sunday July 16, 2023. The date for the men’s final, which traditionally closes the fortnight, is set for Sunday July 16, 2023.
Wimbledon, the third Grand Slam tournament of the year, offered a generous endowment to players on the circuit who played the tournament on grass. In 2022, the winner of the men’s draw and that of the women’s draw received in pounds sterling, 2,000,000 GBP, an increase of more than 17% compared to the previous edition. When a player was eliminated in the first round, the latter still received 50,000 GBP, or approximately 58,471 euros. In total, the 2022 Wimbledon tournament prize pool was £14,496,000, or 7.6% on 2021.
Created in 1877 for men (in 1884 for women), the Wimbledon tournament is a historic tennis competition. Since the start of the Open Era in 1968, here is the list of winners of the men’s tournament:
