Alexander Bublik, the 2025 Halle champion and a quarterfinalist at Roland Garros, was eliminated in the first round of Wimbledon after a five-set loss to Spain's Jaume Munar. The match ended 6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 7-6 (7-5), 6-2 in favor of Munar, who overcame being two points away from defeat and faced a match point against Bublik, who served for the match. Bublik entered Wimbledon as a favorite on grass due to his recent Halle title but was outplayed by Munar, who impressed with his resilience and grass-court movement, drawing comparisons to Novak Djokovic. Following this victory, Munar advanced to the second round where he defeated Fabian Marozsan 6-2, 6-3, 7-6 (11-9) to reach the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time in his career at age 28. This marks Munar's sixth Wimbledon appearance and continues his strong 2025 season on grass courts.
