Oliver Tarvet vs Carlos Alcaraz prediction

Oliver Tarvet made a dream Wimbledon main draw debut as the world number 733 defeated Leandro Riedi 6-4 6-4 6-4 in the first-round. It was an extraordinary performance from the Brit, who did not even face a break point throughout the whole match. The qualifier will now face two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in round two.

Alcaraz was perilously close to one of the biggest shocks in Wimbledon history as he needed five sets and four and a half hours to defeat Fabio Fognini in a scarcely believable first-round match. An error-strewn performance from the Spaniard saw him produce 62 unforced errors and commit nine double faults in total. He raised his game in the fifth to win 7-5 6-7 7-5 2-6 6-1 but he’ll need to be far better if he is to defend his title here at the All England Club.

The world number two admitted nerves were a reason for his display as he opened up Centre Court as the defending champion. Now Alcaraz is up and running, we’re expecting a much-improved display and a dominant victory over Tarvet.
