Wimbledon: Hurkacz, Etcheverry advance to the second round

Seventh seed Hubert Hurkacz overcame the loss of the first set and a rain delay to beat qualifier Radu Albot in four sets and advance to the second round of Wimbledon on Tuesday.

Playing on Court 3, the Pole dropped the first set 7-5 but recovered to beat Albot 5-7, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 before rains interrupted play on the outer courts for the second time.

Hurkacz will next meet Frenchman Arthur Fils or Swiss Dominic Stricker for a place in the third round.

Another men’s seed to beat the rain and advance on Tuesday was No. 30 Tomas Martin Etcheverry, who scored a 6-1, 6-4, 6-2 win over Italy’s Luca Nadri.
