If he advances in the competition, Fonseca could face opponents such as Holger Rune, number 8 of the world, and Frances Tiafoe, 12th in the ranking. Fonseca has a positive retrospective against Fearnley: he has won the two clashes they have played so far. Both occurred this year, on a hard court. In January, the Brazilian defeated the British without losing sets, on his way to the Challenger title of Camberra, Australia.
Already in March, he surpassed Fearnley 2-1 on his debut at the Indian Wells Masters 1000 in the United States. Champion in 2023 and 2024, Alcaraz, in turn, begins his walk in search of the three-time English grass against Italian Fabio Fabio Fabio, 38, who currently occupies the 130th place in the ranking, also on Monday.
