Wimbledon is a different tournament from the other three ‘Grand Slam’ for many reasons. One of them is that the champion of the men’s team has the honor of being the first to step onto the grass of the All England Club headquarters.
This recognition falls on Carlos Alcaraz in this edition of the tournament. The 21-year-old from Murcia goes to defend the crown he won last season against Novak Djokovic.
Carlitos, who played last week at Queen’s as his first contact on the grass, will debut on Monday, July 1 against Mark Lajal, an unknown tennis player from Estonia, 21 years old, number 262 in the ATP and who comes from the previous. Despite being the same age, there are no precedents between the two.
