A little more than two weeks after his fantastic journey in Roland-Garros, Loïs Boisson has known since Monday the name of his next opponent. And his painting is not easy.
The recovery is imminent for Loïs Boisson. After her fantastic journey to Roland-Garros, where she multiplied the exploits to climb to the semi-finals, the new French n ° 1 took the time to blow a little before attacking what will be the beginning of her career.
The continuation will therefore go through the qualifications of Wimbledon, since his request as Wild-Card was not accepted by the organizers. True to their principles, the leaders of the London tournament preferred to invite British players (there is a promising generation arriving), while inviting the former tournament winner, Petra Kvitova, who will soon retire.
The decision has been talked about a lot, but Loïs Boisson will have to accommodate it. If she wants to discover this new Grand Chelem tournament, the Dijonnaise will have to win no less than three matches, not in Wimbledon, but in Roehampton. This is where the qualifications take place, to preserve the legendary and precious lawn of the All-England Lawn Tennis Club, where the main tournament will be played.

The drawing of qualifications was carried out on Monday. Thanks to its ranking, and to its 65th place in the world this week, Loïs Boisson addresses these qualifications as a seeded n ° 1. She will start her obstacle course against the Canadian Carson Brantine (197th in the world) on Tuesday. And it will be both the first French match since Roland-Garros, and the very first of her grass career.
In case of success, Loïs Boisson could have a very difficult 2nd round because it risks crossing the road to a certain Bianca Andreescu. She is simply a Grand Slam winner, since the Canadian won the US Open in 2019 before seeing her career hampered by physical concerns. Andreescu has much more experience in Wimbledon, where she has reached the 3rd round of the main draw over the past two years.
