Wimbledon 2023 Day 10: Rune faces Alcaraz at Wimbledon, Jabeur faces Rybakina

Posted : 12 July 2023
On a day of rematches and reunions at Wimbledon, Holger Rune believes it will be "amazing" to play Carlos Alcaraz, who he played doubles with when he was 13 years old.
 
Ons Jabeur will face reigning champion Elena Rybakina in the women's quarterfinals in a rematch of the 2022 championship match.
 
The next match features world number one Alcaraz of Spain and Denmark's Rune, both 20 years old.
 
The first time I saw him was when we were 12 or 11 years old, Alcaraz said.
 
"I had a brief conversation with him. I definitely recall this."
 
Recently, a video of the two, who were 13 at the time, playing doubles in a junior event in France was extensively circulated on social media.
"He's always been a pretty passionate player on the court, I would say, with a lot of energy," added Rune, who is attempting to make his maiden Grand Slam semi-final.
 
A powerful forehand, even in juniors. He is, in my opinion, still the same but much better today.
 
The match on Centre Court will mark Wimbledon's first Open era quarterfinal featuring two players under the age of 21.
 
For me, it's cool, and I suppose it's cool for him too. It is fantastic to be able to compete in a quarterfinal match against a player of the highest rating who is also your age, said Rune.
