Rinderknech qualified for the 2021 Wimbledon Championships main draw for the first time in his career. In the first round he lost only the second 12–12 singles tiebreak since that rule began two years previously against Oscar Otte 6–4, 3–6, 2–6, 7–6(5), 12–13(2),[6] the other match being the Federer-Djokovic 2019 final.[7][8]
