Federer started Wimbledon hard. Already in his first match, Roger, not without a share of luck, passed Adrian Mannarino. The Frenchman fought on equal terms with the Swiss and even had every chance of winning this meeting, but at the end of the fourth set he was injured and could not continue the fight. In the other three matches Roger won more convincing victories. First, the representative of Switzerland dealt with Richard Gasquet (6-1, 7-6, 6-4) and then defeated Cameron Norrie (6-4, 6-4, 5-7, 6-4). In the last match Roger managed to beat Lorenzo Sonego (7-5, 6-4, 6-2).
Denmark kicked off the year with three wins in the 2022 World Cup qualifier, which earned nine points, a first position in Group F and a good mood ahead of the main football start of the Old Continent. The lot presented the Danes with difficult rivals in the first stage. The defeat from Finland (0:1) and Belgium (1:2) in no way guaranteed access to the playoffs, but the Russian national team intervened, which suffered a fiasco with a score of 1:4, which brought three points and second place for “scarlet guard “. In the 1/8 finals the Danish national team easily beat the Wales national team (4:0), after which the draw was again on the side of Olsen’s 11 friends. The quarterfinal match with the Czech Republic was dictated by Kasper Hjulmand’s charges, who already by the 42nd minute were leading with a score of 2:0. The Red-and-White conceded early in the second half, but managed to pull themselves together and brought matters to a victory.
