Wimbledon 2025
Venue: All England Club, June 30 – 13 .
With the second round defeat of Italy’s Flavio Cobolli in straight sets, British wildcard Jack Pinnington Jones saw his Wimbledon chances come to an end.
There was plenty of interest from home fans for his match against Cobolli on court 18 after producing an impressive display to defeat world number 27 Tomas Martin Etcheverry in his first round match.
However, Pinnington Jones’ Wimbledon debut saw him lose 6-1 7-6 (8-6) 6-2 in a run to the third round of a dream.
The 22-year-old showed the same battling skills that earned him the first round win in a much closer second set despite being outclassed in the first set because he was unable to get close to Cobolli’s serve.
Before the match ended in a tie-break, both players broke each other’s serve once, and Pinnington Jones had a 3-0 lead before Cobolli fought back to snatch it before pulling it back for a 2-0 lead.
