Jakub Mensik vs Grigor Dimitrov Betting Picks & Live Stream – Mensik Can Overcome Dimitrov's Experience at Wimbledon
- Mensik has limited grass experience but superior recent form and fitness
- Dimitrov struggles with injuries and inconsistent results this season
- Mensik is favored to win and cover the -1.5 sets handicap
Jakub Mensik celebrates his victory against Toby Samuel in London
Jakub Mensik is still relatively unproven on grass and has played only a limited number of matches on the surface during his career. However, he arrives at Wimbledon with a significant edge in both form and fitness over Grigor Dimitrov. While the Bulgarian remains one of the most accomplished grass-court players on tour, his recent results and ongoing physical struggles have prevented him from producing his best tennis consistently, with just seven wins from 22 matches this season.
Those contrasting trajectories make this a much more favorable matchup for the young Czech than it might have appeared on paper.
A Wimbledon Duel Between Two Shotmakers
- Mensik holds a 6–3 record in second-round Grand Slam matches.
- He owns a 13–2 record against players outside the Top 100 at Grand Slams.
- Dimitrov has a 7–4 record in Wimbledon second-round matches.
- He is currently on a seven-match losing streak against Top 20 players.
HTH - Jakub Mensik leads 2-0
| Year | Tournament | Surface | Round | Winner | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | Shanghai | Hard | R16 | Jakub Mensik | 6–3, 3–6, 6–4 |
| 2024 | Madrid | Clay | R2 | Jakub Mensik | 6–2, 6–7(4), 6–3 |
Mensik Survives Wimbledon Scare
Jakub Mensik survived a five-set battle to move into the second round at Wimbledon, defeating his opponent 5-7, 6-3, 6-3, 3-6, 7-6. He trailed by a break in the deciding set before producing a superb comeback to seal the victory.
The Czech will be relieved with the result after suffering a disappointing first-round defeat to Adrian Mannarino from a set up in the Queen's Club warm-up event a few weeks ago.
Mensik lost his top-20 ranking earlier this season after failing to defend his Miami title, but he quickly regained those points by reaching the semifinals at Roland Garros and the fourth round in Madrid, helping him return to the top 20.
After losing in the first round on his Wimbledon debut in 2024, Mensik reached the third round last year and will now be looking to match or better that result this week.

Dimitrov Looks to Continue Resurgence
Grigor Dimitrov defeated Dane Sweeny in straight sets, 7-6, 6-3, 7-5, to move into the second round at Wimbledon. He fired 23 aces and won 85 percent of his first-serve points in an impressive serving display.
The Bulgarian arrived on the grass swing carrying a seven-match losing streak and had won only two matches across his previous 11 tournaments due to recurring injury problems.
However, he has regained confidence in recent weeks by reaching back-to-back quarterfinals at the Dublin Challenger and Mallorca, and has now extended that momentum at Wimbledon.
Dimitrov heads into this clash with a 7-3 career record in second-round matches at Wimbledon. His most recent defeat at this stage came in 2021.

Verdict
Despite Dimitrov's grass-court pedigree, Mensik's superior form and physical condition make him the preferred choice in this contest. Backing Mensik to win and Mensik to cover the -1.5 sets handicap.
