WIMBLEDON - Il programma del 4 Luglio: Roger alla prova Youzhny. Murray trova Ferrer, ostacoli tedeschi per Nole e Tsonga

Tempo di quarti maschili a Wimbledon: fortunatamente, nonostante la pioggia che ha funestato anche la giornata di oggi, si sono completati gli ottavi di finale, per cui domani sapremo i nomi dei quattro protagonisti delle semifinali dello Slam londinese.

A cominciare la giornata sul Centre Court sarà Re Roger Federer, che dovrà lottare non solo contro l’avversario, ma anche contro un infortunio: lo svizzero è infatti chiamato a fugare i dubbi sulla sua condizione fisica, dopo il match degli ottavi, reso tribolato da un forte dolore alla schiena, contro il russo Mikhail Youzhny. Roger potrà contare su un pesantissimo vantaggio di 13-0 nei precedenti: i due si sono incontrati già tre volte quest’anno, di cui l’ultima, in semifinale sull’erba di Halle, ha visto la vittoria dello svizzero per 6-1 6-4. La sfida nel torneo tedesco, tradizionale appuntamento di preparazione allo Slam londinese, è ormai un classico tra questi due giocatori, che hanno incrociato le racchette anche nel 2002, 2003 e 2004 (solo nel 2003 il russo è riuscito a portare a casa un set). I due si sono sfidati anche lo scorso anno, proprio a Wimbledon, e lo svizzero ha trionfato per 6-7(5) 6-3 6-3 6-3.

A seguire, Andy Murray incontrerà lo spagnolo David Ferrer: la partita promette di essere molto combattuta, soprattutto in virtù dei precedenti, perfettamente assestati sul 5 pari. I due non si sono mai incrociati sull’erba, mentre Ferrer ha avuto la meglio nell’ultimo precedente, quello al recente Roland Garros, vinto dallo spagnolo in quattro set (6-4 6-7 6-3 6-2).

Il numero uno del mondo, il serbo Novak Djokovic, farà domani il suo esordio sul Campo 1 contro il sorprendente tedesco Florian Mayer, testa di serie numero 31, che ha eliminato il francese Richard Gasquet: l’unico precedente, a Dubai nel 2011, ha visto il trionfo del campione in carica per 7-5 6-1. In un’altra occasione, a Rotterdam nel 2010, Nole ha vinto per ritiro dell’avversario.

Il quarto forse meno nobile del tabellone è quello che vedrà opposti Philip Kohlschreiber e Jo-Wilfried Tsonga: brutte notizie per il tedesco, che in carriera ha battuto il francese solo una volta in sei incontri, nel 2009 al Dusseldorf. Per il resto è sempre stato dominio Tsonga, che tra l’altro ha vinto l’ultimo match, disputato sulla terra di Montecarlo, con un netto 6-2 6-4. Anche per  loro, nessuno scontro sull’erba.

Per quanto riguarda gli italiani, Errani/Vinci dovranno recuperare il match di terzo turno, originariamente programmato per martedi, contro le sorelle Radwanska: la partita inizierà non prima delle 13 locali sul Campo 3. Il programma del Campo 3 sarà chiuso da un’altra coppia di azzurri, Bracciali/Vinci, impegnati nel terzo turno del torneo di doppio misto contro Bopanna/Zheng.
Pennetta/Schiavone saranno invece impegnate nel match di quarti di finale contro le teste di serie numero nove, le spagnole Llagostera Vives/Martinez Sanchez: per loro ultimo match sul Campo 18.

Per quanto riguarda il torneo juniores, Pietro Licciardi giocherà la terza partita sul Campo 5 contro il canadese Filip Peliwo, quarto favorito del seeding, mentre sul Campo 10 saranno impegnati in rapida successione Stefano Napolitano contro Anton Desyatnik (seconda partita) e Gianluigi Quinzi contro Julien Cagnina (terza partita). Sul Campo 15 Matteo Donati riprenderà il match, interrotto alla fine del primo set, contro il serbo Nikola Milojevic, sesto favorito del seeding: la loro sarà la seconda partita.

Nella competizione di doppio saranno al via Camilla Rosatello, con Zuzanna Maciejewska, contro Krejcikova/Rosca (quinto match sul Campo 9), Gianluigi Quinzi, con Filip Peliwo, contro i britannici Ashley/Crawford (quinta partita sul Campo 10) e Donati/Licciardi contro Alcaraz Ivorra/Esteve Lobato (ultima partita sul Campo 11). Campo ancora da definire per la sfida che vedrà impegnato Stefano Napolitano, con il britannico Kyle Edmund, contro Hoyt/Montgomery.
