Hubert Hurkacz faces Jan‑Lennard Struff in Wimbledon fourth‑round clash

Polish No. 29 Hubert Hurkacz and Germany’s Jan‑Lennard Struff met in the Wimbledon men’s singles fourth round. After a dominant win over Tommy Paul, Hurkacz entered the match needing only one more victory to reach the quarter‑finals. Struff, a 36‑year‑old who had upset Daniil Medvedev, was also looking to make his first Grand‑ Slam quarter‑final. The two have split their four previous meetings, each holding two wins, with Struff’s sole victory on grass coming in Stuttgart in 2023. Both players displayed strong service games throughout the tournament, with Hurkacz delivering 20 aces and 45 winners in his recent win, while Struff recorded 45‑plus aces and a high break‑point conversion rate. The match was scheduled for Sunday at 12:00 PM local time on Court 2 and was set to be broadcast on Prime Video.

Medical staff attended Hurkacz during the match after he complained of lower‑back pain, providing a brief on‑court treatment before he resumed play. The encounter was highlighted in multiple reports, betting previews and player interviews, with Alexander Zverev praising Struff’s form and predicting a possible upset.

The outcome determines which player will advance to face the world‑number‑one in the quarter‑finals, adding a decisive step toward a deep Wimbledon run for either competitor.
