The Chilean tennis player, currently 125th in the ATP rankings, did not receive one of the two wild cards, so he will be absent from the 2023 edition of the British major. His next challenges will be challenger tournaments in Europe during the next month of July.
Another bad news received this Saturday Christian Garin (125°) after the organization of Wimbledon third Grand Slam of the season, will not grant you one of the two invitations available for the 2023 edition of the championship .
In short, from the London competition, they chose to give him the jokers 19-year-old Frenchman Arthur Fils (62nd) and Austrian Sebastian Ofner (81st) .
Given this scenario, “Gago” has decided to drop out of the rankings the only option he had to enter the main draw of the British major.
Recall that the former number 17 in the ATP ranking had an exceptional participation in last year’s edition, where he managed to reach the quarter-finals case in which he fell with the Australian Nick Kyrgios, who later became a finalist in the tournament (he lost to Novak Djokovic).
Likewise, the former Chilean number one has not achieved the desired regularity in the circuit this season due to injuries, giving way to Nicolás Jarry (28th) – at the moment exceptional – as the best national tennis player.
Indeed, those ailments led him to forfeit the third round of the Rome Masters 1000 when he fell to Serbian Laslo Djere in mid-May.
Later, Garin announced his exclusion from Roland Garros after confirming the fracture of one of his ribs.
For now, “Gago” will be looking to re-enter the circuit, returning to compete in Challenger class events during the next month of July: first he will compete in the Milan Championship in Italy and the following week he will will travel to Romania to be part of the Iasi tournament. .
