The Dane Holger Rune, 6th in the world, has already proven himself on all surfaces, but he won his first match on Wednesday on the grass of Wimbledon by beating in the first round the Briton George Loffhagen (371st and guest) 7-6 (7 /4), 6-3, 6-2. The match was interrupted by rain on Tuesday as Rune had just won a hung first set.
On resumption on Wednesday, he was much more dominant. At 20, he will face the Spaniard Roberto Carbales (57th) or the Italian from the qualifications Matteo Arnaldi (80th) to try to climb to the third round.
