Taylor Fritz Set for Wimbledon Fourth‑Round vs Bublik
When Is Fritz’s Wimbledon Match?
Fritz’s 2026 Wimbledon campaign took a defining turn after he dispatched Serbian Dusan Lajovic in straight sets before edging out American Patrick Kypson. The win over Lorenzo Sonego pushed him into the fourth round, where he will face Kazakh star Alexander Bublik on Monday, July 6. The clash is scheduled to begin at roughly 1 p.m. ET, fitting into the tournament’s broader slate that kicks off at 11 a.m. local time (6 a.m. ET) on most courts, with Centre Court starting two hours later. The men’s final is set for Sunday, July 12, capping the two‑week event.
Opponent and Pathway to the Fourth Round
The first‑round opponent was originally British left‑hander Jack Draper, but a withdrawal due to injury opened the door for Lajovic. Fritz’s victory over the Serb came in 6‑3, 6‑4, 6‑3 fashion, followed by a 6‑2, 6‑2, 7‑5 win against Kypson. The Italian Sonego provided a tougher test, falling 4‑6, 6‑3, 6‑4, 7‑6(7‑5) to Fritz. Bublik now stands as the next hurdle in what promises to be a tightly contested run.
How Fritz Arrived at This Stage
Seeded sixth, Fritz is returning to the All England Club after a deep 2024 season that saw quarterfinal appearances in both 2022 and 2024. His most memorable run came last year when he reached the semifinals before falling to Carlos Alcaraz. The rapid succession of matches leaves little breathing room, but the veteran’s grass‑court experience could prove decisive against Bublik. The schedule’s early start times also mean players must adapt quickly to morning conditions.
