Despite losing the second set, the Swiss Stan Wawrinka qualified with great skill for the third round of Wimbledon, beating the Argentinian Tomas Etcheverry, seeded N.29, 6-3, 4-6, 6 -4, 6-2, Thursday. In a tight game, the winner of three of the four Grand Slam tournaments – only Wimbledon is missing from his list – was very solid on his commitment by saving two of the three break points he conceded in the whole match. . But the only one he lost was winning the second set for Etcheverry, a recent quarter-finalist at Roland-Garros, who was then leading 5 games to 4, thus extending the game. The rest promises to be very complicated for Wawrinka who will face him the seven-time winner and four-time defending champion on the London turf, Novak Djokovic, in a third round between elders, the Swiss being 38 years old and the Serb 36. .
