Joao Fonseca defeated Jenson Brooksby 6–4, 5–7, 6–2, 6–4 in the first round of Wimbledon on grass on 2 July 2025, confirming his pre-match favouritism at 1.45 odds against Brooksby's 3.0. Fonseca's victory followed the expected outcome, though Brooksby mounted a competitive second set to level the match before the Brazilian reasserted control in the final two sets. The result underscores Fonseca's early-season grass-court form and his progression through the opening round of the Championships.
