His previous best result in a major tournament singles was the round of 16 at the French Open in 2021 and 2023.

Musetti will face the winner of the match between Alexander Zverev (4th, Germany) and Taylor Fritz (12th, USA) in the quarterfinals.

This year, two Italian players, Yannick Sinner (No. 1) and Musetti, have advanced to the quarterfinals of the Wimbledon men's singles.

Pech Pelicar, who stands at 203cm tall, caused a sensation in this tournament but failed to advance past the round of 16.

Pech Pelicar won the first round of the singles main draw against Sebastian Korda (ranked 21st, USA) by hitting a whopping 51 service aces.

Pech Pelicar, who had not won a singles match in a major tournament before this tournament, lost in the preliminary finals of this tournament, but entered the main tournament as a lucky loser and showed his ability to advance to the round of 16.

He left a strong impression on fans as a 'next-generation lightning server' by hitting 27 service aces in the second and third rounds of singles.

Born on July 8, 2003, Pelicar, who lost in the round of 16 on his birthday, was ranked in the 200s in the world in early January this year, but rose sharply to the 50s, and is expected to rise to around 44th place as a result of this tournament.

In the women's singles round of 16, 2022 tournament winner Elena Rybakina (4th, Kazakhstan) withdrew from the second set against Anna Kalinskaya (18th, Russia).

Kalinskaya was leading 3-2 in the first set but lost seven games in a row. https://paste.toolforge.org/view/c7c586bc

She called a medical timeout after falling behind 3-4 in the first set and returned to the court to play, but eventually withdrew at 0-3 in the second set.

Sinner, who is dating Kalinskaya, watched the match from the stands with a worried expression.

Rybakina will play the winner of the match between Elina Svitolina (21st, Ukraine) and Wang Xinyu (42nd, China) in the quarterfinals.
