Siegemund meets history-maker Sierra in a battle of grit and momentum.
Laura Siegemund will face history-making lucky loser Solana Sierra in the Wimbledon 2025 fourth round, a matchup few predicted, but one that’s now impossible to ignore. Sierra, Argentina’s No. 1, has become the first lucky loser in the Open Era to reach the second week at Wimbledon, taking out ninth seed Paula Badosa, Katie Boulter, and Cristina Bucsa, all in grueling three-setters.

Siegemund, meanwhile, has breezed past her opposition, including sixth seed Madison Keys, Leylah Fernandez, and Peyton Stearns, all in straight sets. While singles success has largely disappointed her this season, she’s remained sharp through doubles, picking up a title in Nottingham and a runner-up finish in Adelaide. Despite modest singles numbers with 10 aces and 59.4% first-serve points won, 32.2% break-point conversion shows her opportunistic edge.

Sierra’s rise has mostly come through the Challenger circuit, with a title in Antalya and deep runs in Cancun and Valencia. Until now, she hadn’t advanced past the first round at a main-draw WTA event this year, making her Wimbledon surge all the more stunning. With a 55.6% first-serve win rate and 40% break-point conversion, Sierra may lack top-tier polish, but her grit is undeniable.
