Pasarell Set To Open Wimbledon Against Santana
Pasarell, a 23-year-old Puerto Rican and fourth-ranked U S player, faces Spain's Manuel Santana in the Wimbledon opening round on center court. Santana is the defending champion and the early betting favorite, while Emerson and Bowrey were upset at Queen's Club. United States lacks a seeded men’s player for the first time, as Cliff Richey and Clark Graebner seek to stem the slump in a two-week event with finals on July 7 and 8.
