Defending champion Alcaraz ends Tarvet's dream run
The Morning Standard
|July 03, 2025
CARLOS Alcaraz ended Oliver Tarvet's Wimbledon fairytale as the defending champion moved into the third round with a 6-1, 6-4, 6-4 win over the British amateur on Wednesday.
After a record-breaking number of seeds crashed out at the All England Club in the first round, Alcaraz avoided a seismic shock on Centre Court.
The World No. 2 had battled to a five-set win over 38-year-old Italian Fabio Fognini in a first-round clash lasting over four hours on Monday.
He once again looked below his best, taking two hours and 17 minutes to subdue the 733rd-ranked Tarvet, who produced flashes of his emerging talent to delight the partisan crowd.
"First of all I have to give big praise to Oliver. In his second match on the tour, I just loved his game to be honest," Alcaraz said. "I knew I had to play my best tennis. I was really happy with my performance but big praise to him as well."
