From Vertigo to Victory, Chile's Jarry Reaches Wimbledon Last 16
- Nicolas Jarry, a 29-year-old Chilean tennis player, reached the fourth round of Wimbledon by defeating Joao Fonseca 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 on a sunlit court in south-west London.
- Jarry’s progress followed a challenging year marked by a doping ban in 2020 from contaminated vitamins and a diagnosis of vestibular neuritis causing vertigo and balance issues.
- He had to earn his spot by winning three matches, fended off multiple break opportunities midway through the fourth set, and overcame deficits including 0-40 and a 2-4 gap in the tiebreak, eventually securing the win with 25 aces.
- Jarry described the experience as extremely challenging on multiple levels—physical, emotional, and mental—but said completing it brought him immense happiness, while also recognizing his family as a crucial support throughout his recovery.
- His win ties him with his grandfather Jaime Fillol, who made it to Wimbledon’s last 16 in 1974, and puts him in a position to join three other Chilean men who have advanced to the quarter-finals in the Open Era.
