Hubert Gurkach v Novak Djokovic, Wimbledon Grand Slam round of 16 match, scheduled for Sunday 8 July after 13:00 at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club Center Court (competition live on Eurosport 1, Eurosport 2 and Eurosport App).

Huber Gurkac and Novak Djokovic open the round of 16 (fourth round) of the London tournament with a match that promises to be a pure formality for the Serbian athlete, winner of the last four Wimbledons (2018, 2019, 2021 and 2022, given that in 2020 the competition was canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic).

The total prize fund for Wimbledon is £44.7 million. This is the 136th tournament among men (Trophy holder Novak Djokovic) and the 129th tournament among women (Trophy holder Elena Rybakina).

Hubert Gurkach (Poland, 26 years old, 18 ATP) beat Albert Ramos (76 ATP), 6-1, 6-4, 6-4, Jan Choynski (164 ATP), 6-4, 6- 4, 7-6 and Lorenzo Musetti (16 ATP), 7-6, 6-4, 6-4.

In 2023, the Pole reached the 1/8 finals of the Australian Open and the third round of Roland Garros, winning only the ATP 250 tournament in Marseille (before Wimbledon, he also played the semifinals in Stuttgart, on grass).

Novak Djokovic (Serbia, 36, No. 2 ATP) is the winner of the last four editions of the Wimbledon tournament, where he won a total of seven trophies (tied with Pete Sampras, one less than Roger Federer – the record holder in the open era).

In addition, Novak Djokovic is the tennis player with the most Grand Slams won in his career, 23 (seven at Wimbledon, ten at the Australian Open, three at Roland Garros and three at the US Open), one more than Rafael Nadal and three more than Roger Federer.

The Serbian did not lose a set in the first three rounds, in which he overcame Pedro Cacin (68 ATP), 6-3, 6-3, 7-6, Jordan Thompson (70 ATP), 6-3 , 7-6, 7-5 and Stan Wawrinka (88 ATP), score 6-3, 6-1, 7-6).

They have met five times on the ATP circuit so far, with Novak Djokovic defeating Hubert Gurkac each time, including at Wimbledon in 2019 in the third round 7-5, 6-7, 6-1, 6-4, the most recent success being recorded in 2023, in the quarter-finals in Dubai, 6-3, 7-5.
