Result
Matteo Berrettini, unseeded but the 2021 Wimbledon finalist, beat the 20th seed Arthur Fils 6-4 7-5 3-6 6-3 on Centre Court. Berrettini converted three of six break points to Fils's one of six, and though the Frenchman took the third set the Italian's grass pedigree showed in the tighter exchanges. Sixteen aces to eleven and the cleaner return in the deciding games sent Berrettini through in just under three hours.
