"I have the weapons to beat him," said Matteo Berrettini before the round of 16 against Roger Federer . Only: There was nothing to be seen on "Manic Monday" in Wimbledon. The Italian, who was at least a Stuttgart winner and a semi-finalist in Halle, showed his probably weakest performance of the entire lawn season and could never really challenge Federer.
The Swiss, on the other hand, showed an excellent performance and primarily concerned his 23-year-old opponent with his toxic backhand slice. In each of the three rounds, the maestro made an early break and was therefore free to play early in the set.

After less than 75 minutes of play, the 20-time Grand Slam winner fixed the clear 6: 1, 6: 2 and 6: 2 success. The Confederate is now in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon for the 17th time and, after the strong appearances of its permanent rivals Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, has given a clear signal that they will be reckoned with in the decisive phase of the tournament.
