At 22, Loïs Boisson, the French player who caused a sensation while reaching the last square at Roland-Garros, competes, from Tuesday, June 24, the qualifications of Wimbledon with the objective of integrating for the first time the final table of the London Grand Chelem tournament.

In theory, such a classification could have enabled him to directly integrate the final table of Wimbledon, since the first 104 world players can claim it.
