Three-stage qualifying for Wimbledon came to an end on Thursday. The places in the main bracket were won by 16 tennis players each. There were no surprises.

In the men’s tournament, the deciding qualifying round matches were played best of three sets won. The defeat of Thiago Seyboth Wild returns to the fore. The Brazilian, who at the previous Grand Slam event, Roland Garros, beat m.in. Daniil Medvedev lost 4-6, 7-6(3), 6-2, 3-6, 2-6 to Tomas Barrios Vera on Thursday.

Only four top-seeded tennis players entered the main draw – ‘number one’ Matteo Arnaldi, ‘five’ Radu Albot, ‘six’ Tomas Machac and number ten Dominic Stricker.
