The 39-year-old stated, “Ya during Halle I was watching a lot then back home a bit less because there’s always stuff at home. Here now at Wimbledon with the bubble life, we have more time to watch again and now we’re waiting for the knockout stages and I’m really happy that Switzerland qualified for the knockout stages.

“We’re playing France and in my mind, we’re not the favorites but I’m looking forward to some good matches and probably France, Germany or Belgium are the favorites.”

I feel the better teams have the best chance as well with the squad being stronger. So I think it’s hard to get to see major surprises but I hope Switzerland does well and I’ll be supporting them all the way of course.”
