Wawwinka has to hope for a wildcard

From a Swiss perspective, only Dominic Stricker (21, ATP 90) is safely in the main field so far. The Bernese received a wildcard from the organizers. Stan Wawrinka must also hope for this. The 38-year-old from Lausanne is currently ranked 47th in the world, making him second on the waiting list (cut off at number 43). If he does not receive a wildcard, the three-time Grand Slam winner would have to go through qualifying.

The Pole Hubert Hurkacz (26, ATP 17), the last serious opponent of Roger Federer (42), and the American Christopher Eubanks (27, ATP 32), who can be seen at Wimbledon this year, will advance there for the first time. the quarter-finals. (ch)
