Marcos To Open Wimbledon Quest Against Isner

Saturday, 25 June, 2016

The draw is out for the 2016 Wimbledon Championships and Marcos is set to face 18th seed John Isner in the first round.

 

Fresh off consecutive quarter-final runs on the grass of Halle and Nottingham, Marcos returns to the site of his memorable semi-final finish at the All England Club ten years ago. A rematch of the final at the ATP World Tour event in Atlanta last year, won by Isner, Marcos is seeking his first win over the big-serving American.

 

With 19 match wins in 10 appearances, Wimbledon is Marcos' second-most successful Grand Slam event, only behind the Australian Open (24 wins). Following a third round finish last year, he faces a tricky path with seventh seed Richard Gasquet and 12th seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in his section of the draw.

 

Main draw play begins on Monday.
