Wimbledon 2025: Meet British qualifier Oliver Tarvet before he plays Carlos Alcaraz at the All England Club
If you just hear the British Underdog, who caught Wimbledon’s imagination, then there is something you want to know – Oliver, not Tarvet, Olia.
“Usually I just call oliver when my mother is uncomfortable with me. So you know, I’m trying to avoid it at any cost.” He said.
When he heard that “Oliver” was shouting from the stands of the Fourth Court during the first round victory on Monday, on Monday, he added that he thought he was “doing something wrong”.
Fans can be forgiven because they don’t know – after all, the world number 733 is doing the big Islam.
However, he quickly gives a name for himself and is affected by what is ahead in the second round – that is, the champion Carlos Alcaraz defends the central court in front of 15,000 fans on Wednesday.
If the US university student won, Wimbledon would mark the greatest sadness in the history of the history. However, he does not eliminate his chances, he chooses to see it as an opportunity, not an experience.
BBC told Sport, “I don’t really like the word ‘experience’ because you’re almost just there to watch; you don’t really have the expectation of winning,” he said.
“And frankly, I’m not saying I’m expecting to win. But at the same time I quietly trust all this tournament and took me to my location.
“Something big for me is just playing the ball, not the player.”
For his father Garry, he’s almost a moment he can’t believe it.
“What a mouth -watered hope,” he said.
“One -week qualifying, a tour of a tour. And that’s too much. It will be fun because Ollie played in front of the big crowd – 700 or 800, maybe 1,000. 15,000, this is quite a step, isn’t it?”
