Flavio Cobolli led Alex de Minaur 7-5, 2-1 in Wimbledon singles matches on the second day of the round of 16, while Jasmine Paolini led Alexandra Eala 5-3. The live scores put two Italian players in position to keep moving toward the quarterfinals.
Campo 1 at 14:00
Cobolli and de Minaur opened the day on Campo 1 at 14:00 Italian time. Cobolli, the ninth seed, was facing the fifth seed in the first match of the tournament to feature two top 10 players.
The scoreline showed Cobolli ahead after the opening set and early in the second, with 7-5 and 2-1 separating the players at the update. For Cobolli, that meant a live lead in a match that would carry him into a consecutive quarterfinal run if he held it.
Jasmine Paolini on Centrale
Jasmine Paolini started the programme on the Centrale at 14:30 against Alexandra Eala. Paolini’s 5-3 lead gave another Italian player a front-foot position in the same round of 16 session.
Eala arrived with a result that had already shaped the tournament draw: she had beaten Iga Swiatek in the third round. Against Paolini, the 29th seed was now trying to reverse a scoreboard deficit rather than extend that earlier run.
Alex de Minaur and Cobolli
The history between Cobolli and de Minaur added a clear complication to the live numbers. De Minaur had won both of their previous meetings in 2024, yet Cobolli was in front when this match was reported.
Both Cobolli and de Minaur were aiming to reach the Wimbledon quarterfinals for the second time, so the lead mattered immediately for the shape of the match rather than for any distant outcome. Paolini’s position was similar: the scoreboard gave her the next point of control, but the result itself was still to be played out on court.
For readers following the two matches, the useful read is simple: Cobolli and Paolini were ahead when the live update landed, and each lead pointed to a possible place in the quarterfinals if the advantage held.
