Two of the top 10 seeds out on Day 1–2. That throws open their sections of the draw.

With Medvedev and Zverev gone, players like Hubert Hurkacz, Tommy Paul, and Jack Draper will feel the path has cleared slightly.

Bonzi and Rinderknech, both unseeded and considered journeymen, now have realistic paths to make Week 2. Grass rewards courage—and both Frenchmen showed it in spades.

 This thrilling R1 serves as a stark reminder that even elite champions can be pushed—and their responses speak volumes. Alcaraz emerged tested but unbroken, while Fognini, perhaps on his final Wimbledon campaign, reminded everyone why he remains dangerous, even at 38. #Wimbledon2025 #CarlozAlcarez
