Following yesterday’s victory at the Queen’s club, Berrettini has expressed his positivity ahead of Wimbledon.

Speaking to BBC Sport, he said: “I couldn’t ask for a better start on the grass season.

“I’m feeling really good. Obviously a slam is different at best-of-five and a lot of pressure is going to be on me but I guess it’s normal. I know it’s going to be really tough to get to the final but that’s what I like to do, I like to push myself over the limit.”
