Wimbledon began on Monday with his best opening day in history, since the temperatures in the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club obtained around 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the conditions for the athletes were at the top of the list of concerns, Carlos Alcaraz, the two -time defenders’ champion, ensured that customers on the central court were also served in the heat.
During his four and a half hours match against Fabio Fognini, 38, the game was suspended after a spectator fell ill due to heat.

Alcaraz hastened to help the cause, grabbing a bottle of water near his bank and running the viewer in question. A Wimbledon security member also brought an umbrella to help shade the person.
The BBC reported that the air temperature on the land reached 32.2 degrees Celsius (90.1 degrees Fahrenheit) around 4 PM BST. The previous record during the Wimbledon Opening Day was 29.3 degrees Celsius in 2001.
The game resumed in the last set, which was in favor of Alcaraz, 2-0, after breaking Fognini in the second game. He took the final set, 6-1, and let out a great celebration that could have had some relief splashed there.

It was not expected that this game was long, since Alcaraz, just out of a victory of the France Open over Jannik Sinner, should easily manage Fognini in the first round.
However, his best consecutive victory in his career was a marathon, since Fognini tried the 22 -year -old, who plans to retire after this year.

Fognini had never spent the third round in Wimbledon, but he was looking for the surprise of the year after defeating Alcaraz in the second set, and knocking him down, 6-2, in the room to force a fifth decisive.
However, many Alcaraz struggles self -inflicted. He had nine double offenses and 62 united errors compared to 52 winning shots. He also faced 21 rest points, something that nobody understood when he entered the opening day on Monday.
Alcaraz was even seen screaming in his coach’s box during the game. Social networks translated his words in Spanish, since he believed that Fognini had much more tennis in him.

But Alcaraz did the job at the end, while assuring herself to help one of the many of the attendance to see him begin his way to a potential of three mobs.
