Last year, Berrettini showed his tremendous grass-court prowess, as he reached the final of the Wimbledon. Unfortunately, he lost to Novak Djokovic in the final after a tough battle. This year, he was in pretty good form till the Indian Wells. After that, he has gone through a surgery on his right hand. As a result, he had to miss the entire clay-court season, including the French Open.

Now, he is in the final of the Queen’s Championships as well, where he will face the Serbian tennis player Filip Krajinovic; the final will take place tomorrow. If he wins this final, it will be his second title in a row on the green surface. Safe to say, it will also boost his confidence greatly for the Wimbledon Championships.
